    names The names of CCL holders should not be made public, because that would merely aid the thugs in knowing which houses to avoid... or which houses to break into to look for guns when the owner is away.

    State Police S&W autos

    upgrading As far as upgrading goes, in one large SW city the officers started with .38 S&W revolvers. Then they were upgraded to 9mm Glocks (they could buy their old revolvers if they wished). Then the city offered them .40 Glocks, but doing that upgrade was optional with the officers. Some...

    In light of the French terrorist attack......

    A few years ago I recall a town down south passing a must carry ordinance -- and I believe crime dropped severely. A few centuries ago here it was required that if you left your house you must carry an arm -- for protection against Indians. (I read this in an old edition of a history of...

    2 yr old shooting mom with her CC weapon?

    Not to argue with your choice -- each of us has to do what we are comfortable with -- but if someone has to think about or remember to release the safety, I don't think he is familiar enough with his firearm. For example, if I am carrying my Beretta Jetfire (SA only semiauto), I cock the hammer...

    9mm vs 40 recoil advise

    FWIW Phoenix police can upgrade their 40 Glock to a 45 caliber Glock -- I've been told by someone who has used both that the recoil on the 45 is actually less than on the 40.

    M&P 9mm accuracy issue for me

    I'm not familiar with the M&P but responding to your general statement -- if the front site were too high, or the rear site too low, it would put the POA below the bullseye -- so you would have to aim high to hit the bullseye.

    Friend selling a 66 3 inch 357, what to offer?

    Since he knows it's a rare special gun, I find it odd that he won't give you a price. Usually when I run into sellers like that, they are either looking for a free appraisal, or a $figure they can tout to another buyer to try to get more. Well good luck, let us know if you make an offer and how...

    My opinion only, but I agree with waywatcher, though for a different reason... If you have become familiar with your gun at the range... and if you carry for SD... and have to use it for SD... the last thing you will be concerned about, or even aware of, is the trigger action. Edit: Well I...
