    .308 vs 25-06 and Coyote hunting rules

    I'm running a 3x9 on my AR right now for Coyotes. It generally gets left on 3 power unless I have a true distance shot, then I will crank the power. Don't know about the A2 Front sight tower because of the way mine came set up. It works well, but not my go to gun just because of what else is...

    2016 fishing season open

    Stream fishing just started here in CA yesterday. So my dad and I went out on the Lower Sacramento instead of dealing with the crowds on the accessible mountain streams and rivers. Had a great day fly fishing for rainbow trout with a guide, we landed about a dozen plus with the smallest being...

    Best Carry Gun

    More like a young curmudgeon who spends a lot of time out and away and who's shooting/hunting partners are old/retired cops of ALL kinds. I am also the owner of a large flat stick for stirring and a long ursine prod. [emoji48]

    Best Carry Gun

    How about a 4" 629 with night sights and 240 hydro shocks or 240 grain Keith's

    Ccw in Ca

    One key about permits in CA, is that they are issued by the head of the local law enforcement for that jurisdiction. What this means is that it is the issue policy is set by either the City Police Chief or the County Sheriff. Some counties/municipalities are easier to get it in than others...

    I left my gun in a restroom

    Wall, That's as good as the Secret Service Agent who left the Micro Uzi in the Fast Action Gun Bag on top of the car and drove off. Luckily it got found by a responsible party who turned it in to the local P.D. One of the retired officers told me that it needed a good cleaning when it was...

    How do You Carry? POLL

    Wasn't sure if I had posted on this, but did vote. 1911 Govt., 1911 Officer's are at 4 o'clock in an Old Faithful tuckable. Going to get a similar one for the S&W J Frame and looking for a good IWB setup for the 629-5. Yeah, it's a bit big, but I found that I prefer an IWB for almost every...

    Flashlights: Mounted, carried, both, or neither?

    I found this little Jem at a local gun show. Olight S10 (older model). https://olightworld.com/store/specialty/every-day-carry/s10c-baton.html I really like it because it is not much bigger than the CR123 and the one I have puts out ~450 Lumens. The only down side is that on bright, it does...

    [No] Training before you carry

    I've been lucky in that those that have asked me have taken the recommendation of which instructors to go through for Basic Handgun and then their Initial CCW classes. Having a variety of handguns around, it works to take them out and try some, especially to see if the can operate them safely...

    Biggest "carry" mistakes

    Before going IWB, I had a cross draw holster on for a long road trip. Got out of the rig and went in to pay for fuel, and the pistol worked out to fall on the pad between pumps. This was a kleenex soft slide that was beyond the end of it's service life. Did a quick scoop and look, took care...

    Dove season starts Sept 1 in Oklahoma.

    Looks good Dennis! We didn't see many yesterday, but went out as a family. Out here it's pretty dry, so hunting out the water is critical. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Holster Shirt?

    Mike, funny you should mention the Kimber. That is my EDC unless the clothing/weather calls for the J frame. You are right about the DS weighing as much since it all steel. Jesse, thank you for the offer and I will keep it in mind as funds come available. Modoc Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Holster Shirt?

    Has anyone here used the 5.11 gear holster under shirt with a J frame/detective special? I saw one in the local shop and am considering it for under a cycling jersey (loose fit) rather than carrying in a bag on my road bike. I am currently riding in some really isolated areas and prefer to...

    Carry gun --> Competition gun

    Of course you get the other side of the coin. SWMBO and I both carry 1911 platforms or J frames/DS and compete with Single action Rugers. Kinda hard to cross over. Now, that is not to say that we don't shoot the odd USPSA match in Single Stack for supplemental practice (low D Class), but our...
