      Retirement Range Report #2

      That .22 can is a hoot, isn't it? I love shooting with mine. Typically it's paired with either a Ruger MkIV (as a bonus the barrel is short enough to keep bulk-pack subsonic), CZ 457 Scout (absolutely Hollywood quiet and deadly accurate), or dedicated .22LR AR (shoulder-mounted bullet hose)...

      My Brand New Taurus 856 Defender

      When "polishing", I always start with an Arkansas stone and then finish up with 1500 grit sandpaper. I agree, stoning is an integral part of the process.

      My Brand New Taurus 856 Defender

      Sure, give it a try. If you're happy with the return, the only thing you need to worry about is the hammer spring.

      My Brand New Taurus 856 Defender

      I've not had any issues with Winchester primers, except with guns that are already having light-strike issues with other ammo. I'd say they're pretty much middle of the road as far as ignition sensitivity goes. For a defensive gun, I want it to reliably light off any quality primer that gets...

      optics for sig 226

      That sounds like a pretty good plan. There's nothing wrong with the Holosun stuff. I've been very happy with my 407C and so far with the 407k as well. I've shot with a DPP and hated it, and have a Romeo 1 Pro on my work gun. The Romeo has been serviceable, but I've had a few issues and honestly...

      optics for sig 226

      The factory optic-ready guns don't have the exposed firing pin safety plunger. I'm not sure if they re-designed the whole slide to accomplish that, but they somehow managed to do it without leaving it open. IMO that's a nice benefit of getting a factory optic cut...I just wish they weren't...

      optics for sig 226

      Well aware. Aside from their backup capacity in the event of a total dot failure, I only use the irons to confirm zero before I holster up in the morning, because I've had uncommanded zero shifts on a couple of dots in the past. Co-witnessing with the irons provides a quick frame of reference to...

      optics for sig 226

      Yeah, it actually exposed the top of the firing pin block plunger channel, so the spring rides against the bottom of the optic. There's also a very deep "lightening" cut alongside the firing pin channel that they had to avoid cutting into. The P22X just doesn't leave a lot of room for cutting...

      Sig M17 Ceremonial

      I doubt the grip module is steel. It's likely just a polished/high-gloss-finish AXG aluminum grip module. When Sig uses the term "frame" in relation to the P320, they're talking about the fire control unit (the serialized part), which is made of stainless steel on all P320s. If you click on...

      A treat for the J-Frame Guys

      Yeah, that is a bit proud on the left side. A quick tap with a punch should resolve that. I do like those Uncle Mike's grips. Unfortunately they're next to impossible to find anymore, and when you do folks tend to know what they've got ($$$). I like the factory ones just as well, and they're...

      A treat for the J-Frame Guys

      Mine is wearing factory rubber boots as well...not so much because I didn't like the VZs that came on the gun, but for size (I pocket carry it) and consistency with all my other J-Frames. I'm a big fan of the factory grips.

      optics for sig 226

      Not really what you're looking to do, but my P226 slide is supposed to be getting back from Parker Mountain Machine tomorrow after getting sent out to be milled for a 407K. I've played with some of the dovetail mounts and just couldn't come to terms with them.

      A treat for the J-Frame Guys

      I found that my internals needed a little cleaning and polishing. I didn't end up changing any springs, but getting all the grit out and a minor "fluff and buff" cleaned up the pull pretty nicely.

      Holy Grail Gun

      That's an absolutely beauty, and good on you for shooting it! A 3" version of that gun (without the comp) is a personal grail gun of mine...I love the .45 Colt. Thank for the info on the odd dash numbers being the .45 Colt vs evens being .45 ACP...I did not know that before today!

      Lever Action Prices

      There are only a couple that I wish I'd kept, and none that me awake at night. But there are definitely some that I wish I'd bought. I watched a buddy trade a Win 94 in .30-30 at an LGS for $200 one time...he offered it to me first but I was a broke college kid and couldn't afford it at the...

      New Beretta 30X “Get Home Bag” First Impressions… It’s not good!

      Well, almost. He still needs to shoot it and find out if the frame cracks in half. If it makes it through a whole box of ammo before doing that, it'll be better than two of the earlier Tomcats that a couple of my friends owned.

      People that shoot regularly but never carry?

      I don't think the comments were directed at you, or really anyone here. I know mine weren't. Simply being a contributing member here would indicate a certain amount of commitment to learning and proficiency, and you DO shoot, even if it's not as often as you'd like. Believe me, I...

      People that shoot regularly but never carry?

      Agree with this 100%. And I'll also add learning a bit about basic self defense law and under what circumstances it's appropriate to employ a weapon in self defense, and the potential consequences of doing so. I wouldn't even say it has to be formal training...just do your research and put in...

      My Brand New Taurus 856 Defender

      I find that my issues shooting single-action are more me than the gun. A long, smooth DA pull is easy to be consistent with, once you've mastered the concept of pulling straight through in one smooth motion. With an SA trigger, even a light one, you're coming up against a wall that requires...
