Making some noise on Memorial day weekend! Spotting for the PIG with my Larue. Unfortunately only vehicle targets out at 500 and beyond today...not much work for a Larue Stealth to hold minute of a car door at 700, even with an amateur like me on the trigger.
Great Texas Hog hunt in Archer county! These 3 were stalked in on thermal and then went white light for shooting. Boar is 200lb plus and That sow took 3 to get on truck, probably 275. If anyone says 5.56 (yes even M855) won't do for big hogs they need to put rounds where they count. Both...
Some days it is truly enjoyable to be ROing at ECPR, today was such a day. I have been lucky enough to shoot some fine 1911s over the years, even managed to own a few good ones....But there are always the guns that affecianados read about, drool over on louder than words, works of art built by...
For my fellow 226 9mm fans, Midway has the excellent 18rnd MecGars in stock at the same price as before the current lunacy. Good Company and Good mags, limit is 2 per.

Do Not know if this has been up yet, but probably worth a re-post. For those of us with loved ones who want to better prepare them, watch this. Some very good ideas and tactics for the Non-professional sheepdogs out there.

We have lost another of our nations bravest. In this case a NSW operator during the Rescue of Dr. Phillips captured by Taliban.
May the lord take care of those he left behind, he gave his life so that another American would make it home to his family.

Much as I hate to admit it the Corps gets it right more often than not. ;)
Essentially going with a mildly tuned RAIL GUN, to replace their well loved but well worn MEU/SOC 1911s for FORCE RECON and MARSOC assigned Marines.
Well Done Devil Dogs!

Over the years I have been lucky enough to own a few "decent" 1911s luckier still to shoot some "very decent" examples, all guns that are more capable than the guy pulling the bang switch. I still rely on a well built 1911 as my normal carry. I tend not to change what I carry, so It is rare that...

Story below is from a 10 year old boy in Kansas named Braydon who wants to know why the news talks about the SEAL Team heros and not his dad, the pilot of the CH-47 that was lost.
I have stayed out of the other thread on this subject, as I honestly do not have the stomach to listen to "cover...
I am sure I am not alone in wanting to say thank you to the men who saw justice done. I doubt any of us will ever know who faced such long odds for the sake of justice. I was going to post their creed, but thought it better that it be said in their own words...
