How did that trainer know? Turns out she also loves guns and travel.. When we get back from Tahiti I need to give him one of the little bamboo umbrellas and a few pictures of us on the beach (Smile).

I think one would be better buying some snap caps .. get physically capable of using the revolver by dry firing often and a lot left and right.. Spend the rest on ammo . Practice shooting it left and right .. Keep cleaning flushing out the action lube and repeat.. Practice shooting minus zero...

Rather than comment directly on AK accuracy.. I think it would be more fun to post the below article for those fellas interested to read and then reflect upon the Cultural origins of Marksmenship and how it affects design, expectations and results.. What? What drove the AK design? What drives...

Setting aside the "Law of Exigent Circumstances" (1) where to preserve innocent life (the area we are speaking of here) .. anything goes.. To effectively use a knife in most situations rendering the opponent "hors de combat" (2) may well require a great number of seperate wounds to the...

Here is the deal on Training Mags as I see it.. if we do not experience and practice immediate action drills in response to various unpredictable failures to feed magazine issues.. IMO training is lacking .. I keep a butt ton of good mags around ( I bought more than 100 Chip McCormicks.).. Sold...

It is encouraging to see so many Americans discovering the Shooting Sports !!!

Did not know they had such a program.. Thanks I will look into it..

Some fella mentioned something about "paying to be on the forum"? I don't mind contributing a little something to keep this forum up and running. I just have never seen anything asking ..

I am interested in what my fellow Fanatics do with unreliable mags.. For me they are gone from Service/Carry use as soon as I Identify them. I do not "adjust the feed lips, change out the Springs/followers etc to "get them working again" then try to put them back for service/carry use. As long...
