      Shooting Range Safety

      At a public range like On-Target .....you are always going to run into the occassional person not safety orientated. But I can promise you, if you had said something to a Range employee, the problem would have been taken care of. I have on occassion left the Range and went out to the desk and...

      Question for LEOs

      Call down to On-Target ............ They rent their range to Security Comapnies all the time for Qualifications. I think every Thursday afternoon ..they have a group come in. You can go down and watch the qualifications through the glass windows ! The test is painfully easy ...

      The Taurus 1911

      As a custom bulider of 1911's .....the only issue I have with the Taurus PT1911 is that the internals are [reported] not the same as your basic GI 1911. This is do to Taurus' selecting the internal locking system that they use. Built into the hammer ......it requires a lot of replacment parts...

      OnTarget vs. Select Fire

      I don't know if it matters ......... but I have it from a good source that Wayne Sold the business several months ago ...... Still - some of the same rude young people work the counter. Went their months ago to do a quick trigger test on a [1911 ] I was building and didn't feel like...

      1911 Magazines

      As others have said ,the Wilson 47d's will usually run in anything. Their newer combat version [ that sells for about $5 more = $34 and change ] is a very good upgrade if you are looking for a magazine for your CCW or home protection 1911. The Combat model has an upgraded spring package as well...

      Got my GSG-5

      Jeepdriver - you might want to talk directly to Gemtech as I think they are working on trying to cut down and Silence the GSG-5 as one modification that will only require one tax stamp. That is if the slightly longer barrel is not an issue for you. They want to install the Silencer as part of...

      A Sportman's Guide Find

      Otto's Police Supply in Glen Burnie has the SIG jackets .......... that look like these work coats. The SIG jacket has two built in Holsters [ one on each side ] that will comfortably hold the largest 45 acp. What is very cool about the SIG jacket is that there is velcro that closes up the...

      1911 Interest

      Not sure WHAT bothers you about a 1911 that will perform as fast as you need it to ?????????????????????????? Maybe I am just slow on the up take today ??? Bottom line ......I have seen 1911's with extractors set too tight that will JAM when pushed to fire at a faster pace. These owners...

      1911 Interest

      Built this little beauty as a carry piece for a gentleman that wanted speed, reliability and power. Bought this Colt 1991A1 ........ and kept the frame, Slide, Barrel and trigger ....... and threw everything else away. Handfitted about $350 in custom parts from Wilson Combat and EGW...

      Equpiment - Nice L.E.D. Flashlight

      cbburke .......... they have them on the end caps around the store near the registers .....but I got mine near the digital camera display right next to a register in the middle of the store. What makes this flashlight a great buy is the AA batteries that it takes ........ they are a little...

      Equpiment - Nice L.E.D. Flashlight

      Had to pass this one on ......... if you are looking for a pretty decent 1 watt LED Flashlight .............. Go to Best Buys ........of all places. They are selling [ for $19.95 ] a 1 watt LED flashlight machined from Aluminum and takes two AA batteries. The body is 7 inches long, so it...

      Handgun training to Save your life

      That would seem pretty dangerous to me............. The "shooter's triangle" is a term that I use to describe a stance of the body and how it relates to the position of the weapon. It is one of the most stable shooting positions you get into [free-standing ] and hence is the reason why it...

      Handgun training to Save your life

      No where have I said that any discharge from a firearm is EVER un-aimed. I was pretty clear about the degree of accuracy the students need to accomplish with the "burst response" in order to pass my tests . NO MISSES That's more strict than ANY law Enforcement qualification test. Point...
