Re: Crossfire Closing
I’ve never gone there but it’s disappointing to hear of yet another shooting range closure. I could be wrong, but it seems like there’ve been more range closures in TX this last year than in the past.

Re: Reasons to get a 1911 and which one?
So far no reliability issues with my Colt Competition after about 700 or so rounds. It’s eaten all different kinds of ball and JHP ammo with no problems. I realize the round count isn’t too high yet, but so far I’m real happy with it.

Re: Reasons to get a 1911 and which one?
I carry a full-size Government 1911 most of the time. When I need to carry something smaller or lighter for whatever reason, I carry a Shield 9mm, though I am strongly considering picking up a lightweight Commander or "CCO" 1911 like a Dan Wesson Valkyrie to fill that role. Here's why I c...

Re: This makes me sick.
This is an interesting case, but I think the article is a bit confusing. Re-reading it revealed this is a custody case, and the jury only decided on who gets sole custody. The jury didn’t say the mother could transition the boy to the female gender, although it’s possible she’ll have the sole author...

And was it parked for a long time?

Re: Check under the hood of your truck!
I’ve heard of mice and rats chewing electrical wiring under the hood, but I’ve never seen a rat nest that big under there! What kind of vehicle is that and where was it parked?

Re: The Tactical Games coming to Texas
Sounds like it may be too much fun to pass up! Age is just a number. I’m in my 50’s and have had my share of injuries and health problems, but as long as I can still move around I figure why pass up the chance? I have no delusions of being competitive with others, many of whom may well be young, fit...

Tried to type the acronym for Waco Tactical Fitness but it came out to “what the heck” above.

Re: The Tactical Games coming to Texas
Anyone done both, the Tactical Games and what the heck? If so, how do they compare (aside from TG not allowing optics)?

Re: Video: World's smallest pistol is a Kolibri in 2.7 MM.
Wow! Interesting little gun. I’d be curious to see how it shoots! I mean, recoil, penetration and and noise must be low, but by how much? But I’m guessing nobody makes any ammo for it? As an aside, “kolibri” is the German word for hummingbird. The word’s origin is from the word “colibrí,” from the T...

Re: Lots of people buying guns/ammo at the border.
This may be a good thing sort of right? The left claims the immigrant/hispanic/non-american crowd is under attack from all sides. Surely they wouldn't disarm the people they care about most...right? Or atleast not throw them in jail over some outrageous gun law. I feel this is one of the ironies of...

Re: Lots of people buying guns/ammo at the border.
This came from a few of the people around me at the gun counter and cashier. One said after the El Paso shooting they have to watch out. Another said Trump was sending the Klan to get Mexicans. Another said she just didn't want to be the only one without a gun. I feel bad, these people are honestly...
