LCR 4000 rounds!
No, not me. I lost track since my GP100 and my LCR share an ammo pool, but its nowhere near that high. I found this thread on the internet about a guy in AZ who has made it to 4K rounds out of his LCR, which I find amazing... -
Training: Mil vs Cop vs Civilian
Its that time of year again--time for me to consider a carbine class! :party29: But looking at the gear requirements also got me thinking. The load out for a carbine class is very influenced by military trainers--chest rigs, camel back water supply, first aid kit. All great things, but...- Gundahar

New HQL means New SIG
So I finally broke down and got the HQL. To make the occasion worth doing, I figured that the right move would be to forgo my usual "value" duty type choice, and go with something on the high end for once. Take that O'Malley. Plus I have been practicing enough that it might actually make... -
Has Sig fixed their Shig?
Quick and simple question-- Sig's QA issues are very well documented. Recently I decided that my post Sept budget had recovered, and I am considering a number of higher end handguns. Sig P226 is one of them. Ignoring any other pluses or minuses about this item, does anyone happen to... -
Weight matters
Had an interesting experience yesterday. I had time to myself (rare and valuable for me), so I did a kettlebell workout and ran off to the range. Turns out I may have overdone it a bit as I could really feel the muscles in my arms, but no wife, no child, free time--how often do I get that... -
Trying to Finish out 1st AK
Hey all, After a year of fiddling, I am ready to finally finish out my first rifle, an Arsenal SGL-21. For an optic I finally went with an Aimpoint PRO. Inexpensive, high quality, wide tube--a good choice for a 7.62 chucker that I intend for QCB out to 200 yards. I've got an inexpensive... -
AK TWC Dogleg II update
AK TWS Dogleg II update Good news. So far the TWS Dogleg rail system (Mark II) is working out for me. At first I picked it up for the ability to add a peep sight--which I do like very much. There are several known good side rail mounts such as KVAR and Midwest Industries Rail mount, plus a... -

Engage Basic Pistol AAR
This weekend I finally completed my first formal instruction in firearms--other than my merit badge! It was taught by AJ from Engage Armaments and it was a rocking good time. A lot of the stuff was what I expected, such as gun safety, sight alignment, how a handgun works. Things you simply...- Gundahar

New Gun
Hey all, First thanks to those participating in my previous thread "SR1911 or SW MP9". Got a lot of great responses, and the input was extremely helpful. However........ After shooting both at On Target, I came away unimpressed. Sure these are rough used range guns, but the M&P did not seem... -
M&P or SR1911
Okay, tough choice for me coming up post-holidays. I try to keep my total gun count down, but its time for me to admit that my nostalgia gun (first one I bought) is just not well shaped for my hand. Its time to upgrade. I've got the choices narrowed down pretty well--S&W MP in 9mm, or... -
Awesome Service at Engage Armament
Okay, so like 90% of my interactions with Gun stores are pretty business like. You know: "Can I help you?" "Yes, I'd like to buy two of these magazines and some Hoppes please" "Thank you sir, and have a nice day". Routine stuff. And since I have stuck with pistols for such a long time...- Gundahar

Bad Experience at 2A
So like I said in my other thread in the Rifle section, I have decided to get a rifle--my first one not inherited. After some help from the people here on the forums, and a whole lot of internet searching, I settled on an Arsenal SGL31-94. Pricey, I know. So I figured I'd go to a gun shop...- Gundahar

New Rifle guy
Hey all, I've been thinking a lot about getting a rifle lately. I've been a happy pistolier for some time, but it's time for something different to shoot, and I haven't shot a long arm since I got my Rifle merit badge! That said, I would greatly prefer to purchase one, and only one rifle...
