Just got a new H&K USP in .40S&W. Nice ergonomics, like the huge safety lever, and unlike my 1911, it holds 12 rounds +1. Took it to the range and it is quite accurate 5 head shots and the other 21 in center mass @ 20 yds. Link Removed

I bought an LCP a couple months ago. Statrted out shooting FMJ at the range with no problems then a friend I shoot with brought some American Eagle JHP. The LCP jammed about every other round. I contributed it to bad or cheap ammo since I didn't know how long he'd had it and since have put...

Just goes to show...When you need the cops they are only 20 minutes away! Sanford, N.C. — A 71-year-old Sanford man shot and killed his son who was banging and kicking on his door and threatening to kill him late Friday, according to the Lee County Sheriff's Office. Investigators said that...

I was reading the article about the Utah execution this evening. The firing squad had 30 caliber rifles, one loaded with a blank. My question is wouldn't this be obvious to an experienced shooter? I fired both live rounds and blanks in the military and it was pretty obvious to me that the...

I recently got a wad of 30 round AR-15 mags that a service member donated to the thrift shop before he moved. On the side they have "Restricted Military/Law Enforcement/Gov't use only" . Some are manufactured by Center Industries, Witchita KS and some by Kay Industries, New britain CT. Is...

I have been considering changing my bank to Woodforest because it is open odd hours instead of 9-5 m-f which better suits my schedule. Since the branch is in WalMart, where I usually conceal carry, what does this mean? Do I have to leave my piece in the car if I go shop at WM and plan to stop...

Friday I was out and about and stopped by the local gun shop. Ended up leaving with a LaserLyte laser for my P345 for $170. So I get home, make me a nice cup of coffee, and sit down with the pocket knife to hack the damned thing out of those molded plastic clamshell packages that takes a...

I just got my new 1858 army. I'm a black powder virgin and I got a question for anyone who knows about them. The instruction manual says to 12-15 grains FFFG for the .454 ball round. The "Shooting Information" pamphlet included with the gun says to use 22-30 grains FFFG for the .454 ball...

I was visiting my local gun shop last week with my Sig 1911 on my hip. I had been sitting there about half an hour shooting the breeze with the locals when some fancy dressed younger guy comes in. He must've been a yankee or a lawyer. I got up and got me a cola when he says "Is there some...

Went to the movies with the family this weekend. I had to secure my piece in the lockbox in the car for the movie theatre (no carry place in NC). Then afterwards we went to a restaurant, where I took my piece out of the lockbox and put it in my carrylok holster. The wife says "Why don't you...

Here is a loophole I learned about when I began training as a hard-core Infantry soldier years ago. If you walk into aquarium section of any well stocked pet store and you may be surprised to learn 2 things: (A) Fish diseases are treated with human antibiotics. (B) You don't need a...
