I love my M44. Weird looks when shooting with Bayonet extended, 3 foot long fireballs, and a BOOM that shakes the earth. I felt a little bad when the father/son shooting a .22LR next to me packed up and left though. I did offer anyone who was interested to shoot it, all declined.

The 1972 classic, "The Getaway". Starring Steve McQueen, Ali Mcgraw, and Sally Struthers (yes, Archie Bunker's little Gloria, but playing a much different sort of young "lady"). Using a bone stock High Standard pump action 12 gauge and a pocket full of shells, McQueen shows us h...

No drawing from holster in the CHL class, all from low ready.

It is low on my list of purchases, but I would love to get one. If they make one in .22LR it will fly off the shelves!

The problem I have is I'm a 20-something year old. I've never seen anyone in my age group where a camera-type vest. I guess I need to keep a sharper eye out for what others in my age group wear that could offer concealment. i know the feeling, i've still got a few years left before i hit 30 and i a...

He could have done a lot worse than a G23. Glad he realized that he needed some instruction. How'd the shooting go, and how'd he handle the .40? If he can't carry 24/7, I would also recommend a small safe so that the Glock can't be stolen in a smash/grab type of burglary. He also may want to reinfor...

Welcome aboard! Reloading is tons of fun and a hobby all to itself. I have long ago recouped equipment and component costs with some more expensive rounds and just barely beat the cost of factory with my 9mm loads but I have a great time doing it! Oh and my first ever load was a pretty warm 45 colt ...

I have a similar paddle holster and I like it for early morning walks, but for concealment I find it very lacking without some hefty cover garments. It beats sticking it in your pants though and the paddle does a nice job holding everything in place and distributing some of the weight.

Bump to see if you tried the Hi-point in a match yet?

Congratulations.

The $16.88 Wrangler cargo pants work very well.

No!

I 2nd the bag notion, and bring one that can be carried either in front or tucked under your arm. I brought a backpack, and wore it backwards so that it was on my chest. It looked silly, but kept anyone from unzipping the pockets. In order to keep the pickpockets at bay, I kept my stuff in it, and ...

I like both OWB and IWB, they both have a place. My OWB paddle works great for morning/evening walks and a jacket, sweatshirt. My belt slide is great for IDPA and a longer shirt. My IWB gets the nod most of the time if I am going to be in public a whole lot and not wearing a jacket.

Being from NY state before I got out of there ASAP to come to Texas and having gone to NYC more than a couple of times here are a couple of other tips. Bag. You will need a man-purse, backpack, messenger bag. You are walking everywhere. Cash. There are little mom and pop places that don't take credi...
