Well sadly my first handgun had to be the only pistol I had money left over on my 21st to purchase. It was a Hi-point C9. Enjoyed the gun for a little over a year and even though it was my first pistol it really had no sentimental value and has since been traded.
I have a Rossi .357 with a 6 in. barrel. It's a great gun for the price. I did some research online when I bought the gun and found out that some of the grips designed for taurus models will fit Rossi's as well. You just have to do a little research, but the factory grips are better than the...
I guess I need to clear up a few things. I'm not wanting to limit myself too much, but since I won't be shooting this gun in competition or for hunting I really don't feel like dropping a lot of cash. I just want to become more comfortable with long range shooting and eventually throw down some...
Thanks for the help guys. I will definitely walk away from the single shot idea. I have looked into the savages and found that they have very comparable prices. I'm also gonna need some help with the scope on this one since I have about zero experience with scopes. The only scopes I've ever used...
I love Glock pistols and theres no denying that, but Ruger Mark pistols are amazing. You can enjoy a long day of shooting your .22 Ruger at a relatively low cost. They're just great guns to own and shoot.
I'm looking to make my first .308 purchase. I'm just looking for something to strictly target shoot with. I really don't want to invest too much into this project. I have looked into several different rifles and to conserve cash on this exploration i have decided to purchase a break-action. I...
I once had a fobus holster. I thought I would save some money and purchase one of these cheaper fobus holsters for a cheaper pistol. The pistol was stuck in the holster until i completely removed the adjustable screw and pulled on the gun for a few minutes. I tried to work with the holster a few...
I haven't shot this ammo through my glock 22 yet. I would buy the better stuff for a few extra bucks. I do however have a friend who also caught onto this cheaper tula ammo at wally world. He has fired several boxes through his rock island 9mm and the only thing he has noticed is just how dirty...
Good read. Thanks for posting. If anyone else has any other links or stories about LEO's in off-duty situations of any nature, please post them. They make for great reading as well as helping others prepare for similar situations.
I own a Glock 22 in .40 S&W. I am really wanting to purchase the parts to interchange with the pistol, but I'm really up in the air about which barrel and mag to invest in. My options are .357 Sig or 9mm. I really enjoy the price of 9mm ammunition, but also think the .357 Sig turnover would be a...
I live in Bloomington and feel that this is a really dumb idea on the old man's part. Yes, the homeless shelter was closed down, but think about the other two homeowners in other states who tried to do the same thing to help out. They were found murdered inside their homes. Put the tents away...
Decided to make a drive up to Indy from Bloomington one day with a buddy to check out a variety of different things. One of the things on the list was Don's Guns. This was the last place we decided to go and it was definitly not what I expected. The prices on the guns, ammo, and accessories were...
I was also in somewhat of the same situation as you were. I currently live in Bloomington and go to school full time. My addresses have been changing over the past few years due to this and I figured an easy bet would be to head back home (Perm. Address) and apply for my license, so I would...
Could definitly see an idiot trying to hop over the fence and take down a lion. Too bad this idiot would most likely be carrying something small in caliber and would make a quite different show for the children to watch while hes being eaten alive.:):
Stun gun = Dumb idea. A taser that shoots electrodes takes aiming practice and probably would be a great idea either. A knife could be a great way to help her out. If she is like most women and carries a decent sized purse, a nice police grade baton can also help. If it doesn't scare the person...
Yes you will mess up the walls with the scatter of the gun. It might also be a problem trying to clean the mess up after your home invader leaves his blood all over the carpet
First of all: Glad it wasn't your home. It's really great that your wife is wanting to learn more about how to protect herself and your home. I just recently got my girlfriend interested in firearms and protection. I'm just trying to keep her involved and show her the benefits of always being...
