    My new favorite for carrying in the woods is a .357 sig 229 which started life as a .40.

    Is there any reason NOT to get a 40 S&W? Any guns to avoid?

    OK, It is a compromise in capability, but I think that is what was wanted by the ballisticians, which I am not. I still like it. I have more .40's than 9's and more .40's than .45's. Iguess I'll learn for sure if I'm ever unlucky enough to get in a gunfight. The only time I've ever had to...

    Is there any reason NOT to get a 40 S&W? Any guns to avoid?

    I like .40ncaliber handguns. The .40 was designed to replicate the stopping power of the .45ACP with the capacity of a 9mm. It compromises in both factors, but I think it does it well. That we can carry a G27 with 9 + 1 .40 caliber bullets is quite extraordinary when compared to a Colt...

    Surviving New York City After SHTF

    Surviving in the city, surviving in the woods, surviving in the desert or the ocean; the basic question is the same: How well do you know the city, or the woods, or the desert, or ocean. I grew up in downtown NYC. In my prime I think I would have done pretty good surviving in NYC. I've swum in...

    Flaslight recommendations

    If you just want an everyday all purpose moderately priced flashlight just grab the most popular AA or D cell flashlight in the hardware store. I don't know if we are allowed to use brand names. I use a head lamp with green lens when walking my dog in the dark. I prefer the 4 AA battery pack...

    I hate many, but not as much as I hate your Govenor!

    The last 450 years of this country wasn't so easy for white males either. Plenty of them died in battle or drowned at sea or crushed in mines or from machinery, some starved to death or died of thirst or were eaten by animals. Then a couple of hundred thousand white males went and fought a...

    Repeal the Second Amendment

    Those who would call to repeal the 2nd Amendment should be careful what they wish for. I think more States would vote to change the Second Amendment to a more robustly worded individual RKBA.

    The Russian thing, I'm confused?

    Putin was ticked off at Hilary and Barack for messing with the 2012 Russian election so he decided payback was appropriate. Now that we have indicted 13 Russians perhaps Putin will have Hilary and Barack indicted for their actions.

    NYC Police Commissioner Freaking Out Over Potential Of National Reciprocity

    Have it pass definitely. I don't know what is wrong with it to fix it. If you are driving in NY and the speed limit is 65mph then that is NY law on how you operate you car. If you are in Virginia and the law says 75, or in Arizona and the law says 85 then that's the law. If you are in NY...

    NYC Police Commissioner Freaking Out Over Potential Of National Reciprocity

    National Reciprocity would mean NYC residents would still not be able to obtain a license to carry a pistol. Visitors to NYC from free states would be able to carry in accordance with NY law. i.e. 10 round etc.

    New Marlin Lever Guns?

    Big money for those guns. I saw a Marlin 30-30 at Walmart brand new $350. Looked it over and I was impressed. I was going to buy it but the 20-something year old kid behind me said out loud that gun was why he was there. It was the last one the store had. I stepped away and wished him good luck...
