      Who’s into racing

      I raced for many years with NASA & PCA but haven't raced for a couple of years now. Still have the cars and equipment, just need to get the health back. My son's in professional racing and has crewed for IMSA and Le Mans teams.

      Moving my collection to Texas, suggestions..

      When I moved between States I transported all the firearms with me. I agree with the others that recommend a box truck. I purchased a couple of the KNAXX job boxes to contain everything as they looked a lot less conspicuous than the gun safes. Those I sold back in CA and bought new safes when I...

      Springfield Hellcat micro 9mm doublestack

      I'm seeing more and more RMR's on guns these days. At Gunsite last weekend I'd say each relay of 15 had 2-3 so just under 1/3rd. These were a mix of full size service weapons and carry guns (not gaming guns).

      New Colt Combat Commander: First Impressions

      LW Commander is my daily carry 90% of the time. Of the guns I own I'm the most accurate with 1911's and the LW makes it easy to have on my hip.

      Isosceles or Weaver?

      I shot Weaver for many years. I was having problems bringing my elbow down enough for the weaver stance to work correctly (old injuries have meant shoulder surgery for me). An instructor at Gunsite suggested I use a modified Iso stance with my feet more Weaver like (fighting stance as others...

      What do you carry and why

      Mostly carry a Lightweight Commander but change out for one of the High Power's or a P938 depending on circumstances.

      Colt 1911 Commander

      As do I - but mine's a LightWeight Commander. Very comfortable and easy to wear.

      How long do you keep your defensive handgun ammo?

      Each time I go to the range I fire the mag in my carry gun and replace with the backup mag. New rounds are loaded into the backup mag. So I cycle through my defensive ammo on a regular basis.

      non-resident CCW. How many do you have?

      Nevada dropped AZ for a while but still honored UT (NV was the last permit I picked up). And I pretty much spend all my time in these three states (and CA which is a lost cause for now)

      Home defense... how do you keep your gun?

      When I undress to go to bed the EDC goes from the IWB holster that its lived in all day to a Shoulder holster that hangs right by my bedside. Any gun outside the safe (unless being cleaned) is Condition 1 (And yes - true Condition 1 as I only have SA Hammer fired guns - Primarily BHP's and...
