      9mm carbine wisdom

      Plus One (+1) for the Beretta CX-4 Carbine! The wife has a Beretta 92FS and loves it! When she wanted a 9mm carbine that matched her Beretta, is when I discovered the CX-4 carbine, and she fell in love with it! Matching caliber and magazines with a very pleasant felt recoil that is amazingly...

      "Study" of widespread, bipartisan aversion exists to neighbors owning AR-15s or storing guns insecurely

      I'm fortunate, I guess? My next door neighbor (behind me) has a few 'toys' and we have had a few fence line chats. Our Association VP is on the security team at Parkview Hospital...and is a avid wild bird hunter (duck, pheasant, etc.!) I try to be subtle (aka, not 'broadcast') what I have or...

      Range time with .38 special: Ruger Security Six, Smith 642, Taurus 85

      I still have one older nickle Taurus 85 (early 1990's build) .38 Special that is dead-bang accurate with 158 grain loads! I've actually carried it in the past until I discovered Smith & Wesson's J-Framed 360 series of revolvers...but kept the Taurus! My dad has asked about getting a little...

      Range time with .38 special: Ruger Security Six, Smith 642, Taurus 85

      Older, early 1990's models were excellent, based on the older S&W revolvers...their newer stuff, I never found anything worth betting my life on! Had a model 850 (DAO .38) that went back for warranty work twice (2x) and never got fixed...and I never went back with Taurus!

      9mm carbine wisdom

      Consideration #77: It needs to be good-looking enough to take out into public! Aero Precision EPC-9 in FDE and Black! Ballistics Advantage 10.5" heavy barrel. Very accurate and a very sweet shooter!

      Almost drew down last nite...

      Witness - 1985 - the kid understands because he's witnessed bad men kill another man, in action!

      Almost drew down last nite...

      I was at the 1500 several years ago when we heard a loud 'pop' and as we turned around and looked, one could see clear across the area as nearly everyone was on the ground (ducked down.) There were two guys across the space standing next to each other and one of them (a vendor, I believe) who...

      Les Baer, Ed Born, Wilson Combat or other

      Nighthawk or Les Baer...can't go wrong with either! But don't rule out having one built by @AllenM in Avon... He's done some work on mine and its top notch!!!

      Mall Security Question

      Paul Blart...at your service! The bigger question is..."What are you doing at a mall in today's world?"

      My love/hate relationship with the Sig P320

      Yes...I did forget to include the Ruger MK Series on that list! Thanks for reminding me! I'm not sure who's pistol the Glock grip angle was designed after, but that was predominantly a European thing in the early 1980's.

      My love/hate relationship with the Sig P320

      Actually, there have been several pistol designs with a 22-degree angled grip, including the German Luger pistol, the Steyr M series, the H&K P7, and I'm guessing that Mr. Gaston Glock simply stuck with a more predominant European style grip angle with the original design. Mr. Glock probably had...

      My love/hate relationship with the Sig P320

      Experience mattes too...I grew up shooting SA revolvers and, the old-school plow-share grip angle, along with the muscle-memory engrained in my neural pathways, the Glock grip angle is much better suited for a 'natural' point-n-shoot grip angle for me!
    13. Amishman44

      My love/hate relationship with the Sig P320

      For me...Glock has a far better grip angle, for a natural point-n-shoot pistol, than any other semi-auto pistol...feel free to choose your own! Nuthin' wrong with someone liking something else!

      My love/hate relationship with the Sig P320

      An SRO had a preventable firearm discharge, IN a school and DURING the school day...??? Lucky no one was injured or killed!!! Question: Is he still an SRO??? As for me, I'm sticking with my Glock pistols... The Glock has a far better grip angle for natural point-n-shoot shooting and they have...

      One IN, One OUT

      I've owned three (3) Bersa Thunder .380 pistol back in the late '90's...great little shooters! All of mine were the older nickel colored ones! Had a Walther PPK/S for a while too...absolutely LOVED that pistol!

      Gun show loophole closing?

      Exactly...what is this so-called 'Gun Show Loophole' that the left keeps talking about...will someone please explain it to me? Everyone who purchases from a licensed dealer (FFL) at a gun show has to got through the same NICS background check the same way they have to when they purchase from a...

      Stoeger STR 9

      I had one...an STR9c (Glock 26 sized) pistol. Bought it used to try it out, but then sold it. It handled well, cycled well, and shot straight but it could have used a stronger recoil spring because the felt recoil 'hammered' a bit stronger into my hand than expected, while shooting. I...

      Situational Awareness, the be all end all?

      Absolutely... The company I work for has suggested using an Uber for a couple of miscellaneous shuttle moves around town and I refused, instead calling a nephew to come pick me up and transport me around! On the flip side, there have been many Uber drivers attacked or robbed by the people they...

      Situational Awareness, the be all end all?

      Another reason why I never use UBER...one never knows into whose private vehicle one is climbing into and how safe or well-cared for the vehicle (and driver) are? Situational Awareness (SA) is about not just looking, but seeing what is going on around you, in your safety bubble and beyond...

      More longer more better, right?

      KKM Precision has been my 'go-to' for barrels these past few years... Another nod to KKM Precision for their quality, fit-n-finish, and accuracy!
