WOW, interesting information. Will send it to the IRS SAC I used to work with on the task force.

Same here, thanks for the info on the site.

They are a pain. They punch holes in the chain link fence, are dangerous to the dogs in packs, and are protected by the AZ Government as a game animal. This is where they separated 3 feet of chain link fence to kill two of my apple trees. They have (a Pack of 30) only chased my 120-pound Rhodesian ...

I have a 19-inch DB Fox in 12 Ga, one Stevens 410 Ga, and a Stevens 20 Ga for beak-open shotguns. I save them for teaching kids and women shotguns before starting them on a Rem 1100. I have a few SBSs from a 12-inch Rem 870 Witness Protection to a 14-inch Saiga 12 Ga set up for urban operations wit...

In 1978 the first shooting I went to in the state police was a drunk who broke into the residence of an old man screaming he wanted money. The old man shot him from his wheelchair at about 11 yards down the hallway with his Model 94 and a 150gr WW soft nose. It worked perfectly solving the problem ...

Found of the M&P 2.0 myself. The 10mm was the last-duty weapon I bought when they changed the reg to allow 10mm. My wife bought the Walther .22Mag and it works well I thought about the M&P .22 Mag, but just never liked using the lightweight bullets. Glad to hear the report enjoy the range t...

Good detail and information. I haven't gone through that process for 40 years. I still load ammo but have not taken the time to gas-check my own bullets.

I live out a bit and tend to want a larger dog. The photo is of WALDO (the large 120-pound Rhodesian Ridgeback) with his new replacement. The pup MAX is a Belgian Malinois/German Shepard mix who weighs 7.5 pounds (4 months ago) in the photo and should get to 100 pounds. Waldo is 10 and should be ar...

K98s were my first large bore rifle, back when you could buy them at Woolworths for $35. The cheap one was capable of enough accuracy that I use it for ground hog hunting with 110 gr spire point reloads. The iron sights with young eye were great.

Paladin

Thanks, Jim, Very informative as I had not seen it before.

Paladin

Well done. When I met my wife in 2011 she had bought a Glock 3 months before and had a class to try to get a CCW In Southern Kalifornia. She now teaches women's classes and invites me to go shoot with her women's group every now and then. This was her last week-end. If you go to Gunsite look for he...

Paladin

Well done, enjoy the process.

I always liked the Model 39 and have owned three but let my brother have one, and the others went to friends who talked me out of them. I found one two years ago to replace my losses and still consider it a great firearm for everyday carry.

P9121177 (3).JPG During those times leverguns were the only widely available guns that contained more than one round. Bolt actions never made much of an impact until after WW1. I forgot how many dozens of deer and one elk, a few wild dogs, foxes, even a pigeon and a few crows with an ‘86 in .33 wcf...

I have never been much of a drinker but there is a tradition in Special Forces at funerals when everyone, except fellow members, has left before the first dirt is put on the casket. We drink a toast to the fallen member with his favorite beverage (this is not all of the ceremony). As this has given...

I’m praying for you.
DOC was right

Thanks may have to break down and get one as it can clock vehicles over 68 mph also.

Due to having started loading shotgun rounds when I was a teenager using Green Dot in my first .45 was a given, Lots of it.

I confess it has happened a few times. My worst (and most embarrassing) I had arrested a Drunk Driver and was running the intoxilyzer and filling out paperwork at the office in a rural county in WV. The phone rang with the silent alarm for the largest Jewelry store in the county and 1/4 mile from t...

You have sentenced him to many purchases, well done.

I run around AZ when not in Alaska and have even found some gold panning a couple of times. A very beautiful area of the country with lots of history.

Great excuse to shoot and have a good time with war stories. Just fired 20 rds through a lever gun in the backyard today working on sights

I watched all of the Band of Brothers in one sitting on a day off in Africa in 2003. It was the last time, I guess I am due. They were still teaching Lt Winters tactics on the gun positions in IOBC (Infantry Officers Basic Course) in 1987 when I went through it.

Paladin

Excellent, I have seen a lot of bears while I was in WV. 5 feet was the closest I ever had one next to me.

Paladin

I understand, I was a State Trooper stationed in a county with one red light (a four-way stop would have worked) and went to every school in the county often and participated when I could.

Went through Circle two years ago on my way to this camp SouthWest of Ft Youkon. Lots of Wolves and Bears even a few moose (sorry to say all lived).

. The 9/11 problem was made even WORSE by being used as an excuse to destroy civil liberties under the guise of 'an emergency' - the way governments always do. Remember the Republicans are mostly RINOs, and pushed the Patriot Act right along with the Marxist Democrat bunch. "Never Forget' mean...

A local deputy called and asked me for help (requiring a tractor) digging a hole for his septic system.

I had retired from the state police and was a Federal Special Agent. My wife had gotten home from surgery the day before and I was making her breakfast when she called to turn on the TV.

Griff wrote: ↑Wed Sep 13, 2023 10:30 am I'[ve found that to be really dependent on the particular gun. Seldom do any of my 1911s (only auto-loaders I have), run reliably at such low pressures. With a change in springs more reliability can be had. If a stock gun, just run ammo that mimics factory loads. Usually need not be max.

Thanks all, I have tried this since I was a teenager will give it another go with the information you shared.

Ever since a grizz encounter, I carry a 4" Mod 29 Stainless in a chest rig loaded with Buffalo Bore hardcasts when bow hunting or packing elk. A guy at our gun club brought his teenage son to practice with an Alaskan Backpacker using Buffalo Bore .44 ammo. I told him it was a bad idea and that...

Paladin

Yes, I was given one (by a lawyer who still owes me $75,000) and carry it often in the Southwest with snake shot up front and .44 Specials in it. I just changed the rear sight to something I like a lot more than the V that was on it.

Heck, even if they worked them 12 hours without break (which was possible), that's a hundred an hour or more than 1 a minute. Must have done them in stages, using loading blocks, but still... that is very impressive!

Congratulations, I wore glasses from third grade until the GOV approved LASIC for PILOTS (and SOCOM) in 2002. I am now back into Bia-Focals but happy with that for the 20-15 vision I still have).

I don't mind a .380 for carry and carried a Walther PPKS as a backup gun for about 15 years. A bit lighter with more ammo is a Bretta model 84 (this one an Indiana State Police turn-in)a bit larger and feels much better in the hand and you can shoot a clean target with one on a 25-yard course.

Never crashed a real plane and started flying in 1972 (Officially) NEVER flew a drone or model airplane I didn't crash.

One of the two Rossi's the .44 Mag or the .357 Mag gets carried the most when walking the dogs. With the cats around you don't know when they want to play and both are set up for night use.

If you haven’t bought Steve’s dvd you might want to consider it. Get the mag follower and ejector spring too. The machine can operate one finger butter smooth with a little bit of fitting. The dvd shows you how.

I have started using Tennis racket bags for my take-down guns from AR-10 (in this photo) to the 1897 12 ga I carried in my motorcycle saddlebags. MY MP-5 and Co-Pilot fit in a single racket bag. They don't draw attention when taking them in and out of the truck or carrying them into hotels.
