My son brought his stainless ultrasound tub and Hornady gun parts cleaner to the house yesterday. He's been using this setup for a while to clean our S&W 669 he uses for testing his hand loads. he decided that cleaning a couple of my guns would be a workable Father's Day gift. The SR9c and...

After reading about this Montana incident... I'm not so sure... http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-27243115

My son went to the range without me yesterday. He rented a Beretta 92 as well as an Springfield XDm. He has his mind set on one of the two for range work... not carry. He says the XDm is awesomely accurate. Much more so than the Beretta. However, he likes the feel and handling of the...

You're in a checkout lane in the store. You're sitting in a pew at church. Choose your circumstances beyond being in a crowd of any size... You see a guy in the crowd pull his weapon. You are armed as well you should be. What do you do?

More firearms technology... Don't know if I'd ever have to have it, but if I had the resources, I'd probably want it... http://www.nbcnews.com/technology/smart-rifle-never-misses-now-comes-semi-automatic-form-2D11899302

This seems to be worth a look... http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2014/01/01/remington-announces-r-51-pistol/

When you look in your safe, which of all your guns do you seem most drawn to? Or when you head to the range, the one gun you seem to want to grab most often? Or if you want to go hunting? Whether it's a collectable, or beaten from years of carry, or from years of dragging it in the field...

I found this item on my school bus when I was in first grade. Quite a find. Quite the story that never really left my mind. It has spent all of it's time since in my jewelery box and has been out maybe five times until now. It evokes images of what we believed this nation to be over 50 years...

Another interesting read... from an unlikely source for me... on the shortsighted attempts to restrict gun ownership. They keep coming from every angle. Are ballistics not enough in putting a bow on a crime scene investigation? Can microstamping make it easy to mislead attempts to resolve a...

I'm taking this as good news for our friends in Illinois. http://gunssavelives.net/blog/gun-laws/breaking-illinois-legislature-passes-concealed-carry-bill-with-veto-proof-bi-partisan-vote/

:D There are some things that are just beyond my ability to comment on, but should be shared... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-22421185 I can only say, my son was looking at purchasing one of these printers for his manufacturing company. Different product.

My current spring jacket is getting pretty long in the tooth so I started to look for a replacement. I'd like make this investment to include CCW capability. Can anyone give advice as to what may be a good selection with this in mind...

HB 36: An Ohio statement about federal anti-gun legislation http://www.cleveland.com/open/index.ssf/2013/03/post_44.html#incart_river Hopefully we see more of this throughout the country

My wife came across this article. First, just the concept of being able to manufacture anything using wizardly printing technology astounds and befuddles me. The second is that before it really gets off the ground it may be legislated into oblivion. Beam me up, Scotty or I'd like some Earl...

OK. The guessing is over. Hopefully the BBC is as politically neutral as we can get. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-21049942

Since I've recently declared mayself a nines guy, I thought I'd share my family of them. The patriarch is my S&W model 669. It seems I don't know where to find detail on this early 1980's offerring. All I know is I picked it up about 1983. I've ridden it hard and put it proverbally away wet...

My Christmas present Caldwell electronic earmuffs gave up after just 7 months of use. They are producing ear shattering feedback regardless of volume. Replacement batteries had no impact. If I remember, more than a few of us bought these things from MidwayUSA at roughly the same time. Just...

My wife likes gun bling. She's got the engraved LC9 and LCP, an engraved S&W 637. Does the Walther look like it should be a winner?

Here are 3 Rugers: SR9c, LC9, and LCP holstered and ready. :P 2 Kershaw blades: a Boa and an Onion clipped into pockets. 1 lifelong friendly Kubaton loaded in reverse on the waist for show. Of course. the all important cell phone. You know what? It all works! ] Side note: Mayo, here's...

We went to Fin, Feather, n Fur for some hiking boots today. We also made the perfuntory stop at the gun cases that stretch the length of the back of the store. Kimber, Springfield, Sig, Smith... Ruger! And there was a couple fondling an SR22. It looked good after seeing so many handguns in...
