    Larger Caliber CCW

    I’ll stick with my small caliber. I know I should probably move to a .460 or a .50AE, but I’ve carried the little old .45ACP so long I’m just too attached.

    If You Could Only Own One Smith & Wesson… What Would It Be?

    4” 24. The .44 Special does all I need a pistol to do. Target shooting, self defense, bear defense….perfection!

    Culina Grips…

    They're still going, most likely just down for Christmas and New Year's. Keep the faith, Jennifer won't let you fall through the cracks.

    Who currently makes the best reproduction target grips (wood/medallion, checkered)?

    For me, Culina is the best. Their shaping is spot on and their finish is superior to that of the original (no cracking/flaking). In my opinion, except for original Cokes, they are superior to the originals. I have tried Altamont and Eagle and found them severely lacking in fit and quality. I...

    Python - One Last Christmas Present for My Daughter

    Beautiful girl, and a great gift. My babies are 2 and 3 so I haven't introduced them yet......and I'm kind of afraid to. They already take all the TV choices, the good snacks, half of the bad snacks that make it to my plate, if they get into guns, my collection is gone:)

    A RANT AGAINST THE WORLDS LARGEST CIGAR RETAILER

    I smoked cigars and pipes since I was 15, almost exclusively pipes from 25 until 2020 when I got the Rona, and the taste of tobacco completely changed for me, think of a mess of collared greens overcooked by about 24 hours. In 2023 I'm going to restart and smoke until my taste resets or I get...

    N frame revolver with 4” barrel recommended concealed carry holster

    As has been mentioned, a good belt is a must. Take your pic, I've used Beltman and been pleased. I carry NFrames IWB and in a pancake holster. For IWB I like Lobo Gunleather and Milt Sparks Summer Special II. Lobo has built me two great IWB, one N and one L and they are both very comfortable...

    Is this .38 Special ammunition sufficient?

    It kinda depends on what bear you run into. Your normal 200-350 one, and a good .38 or .357 is fine, hard cast is great and I've seen a through and through with a Hornady Leverevolution. Now I have a buddy around here who goes about 600 and on all fours his hump stands above the top of my...

    I got really lucky but shouldn't have made the mistake

    It happens. anytime you do something long enough, you have a mishap. I never let anyone in my house and not have my pistol on me. I don't know them, they could be the next coming of Charles Manson, and trust me, most companies are not vetting employees well. On the whole, I try not to let anyone...

    are we living in the post rifle age?

    Whether you have a pistol or rifle, make sure its FDE. If not, it probably won't even fire.

    travel to Tennessee

    All is good here in the Volunteer state. State law prohibits any preemption by any lower municipality, body or official. As said above, Memphis is rough, some of Nashville is (the other part is hipster), East Tennessee is God's country. In addition, if you are visiting the Great Smoky Mountains...

    Smith & Wesson's CYA is pissing me off

    They aren't going to tell you yes on the off chance that they produce that configuration in the future. If you can do it with what you have, you won't buy another from them.

    glocks are stockholm syndrome

    It's price and what they see. If people were buying the top polymer pistol, everyone would be carrying an H&K USP, and asking why anyone would bother with Glock 19s and M&Ps.....but that's why there are horse races.

    2022 Colt Python 3"

    Of the three above, I like the Service for looks and OEM for shooting. My personal favorite is Deer Hollow's First Generation Python grips, though they may look a little butt heavy on the 3". They've always been my favorite revolver grip, and Deer Hollow's are better than the original Colt ones.

    Park Ranger bear wisdom

    There is nothing "bear proof." They are too smart and have WAY too much time on their hands. If they had opposable thumbs we'd be knee deep in kimchi.
