Appreciate it! I’m trying my best with the finite amount of energy I have lol. Sometimes it’s easier said than done, but I plan on raising two good men with some virtues distilled in them. The world needs more good men, that’s for sure.

Exactly. I try to show them all the stuff I fell in love with when I was younger. I would much rather have them spend the day in the woods that sitting in front of a tv. Some things I didn’t discover until I was older. Shooting, fishing, and hunting I’ve done since I was young so hope I can pass...

I would if my kids were older. They’re too young for me to trust just yet. My oldest does pretty well with safety and every time we go shooting he takes it very seriously.

I’ll definitely look into that one as well. That’s right about the size I’m looking for. Metal frame would be nice as well. SIG makes good guns.

Well that’s what my mossberg 500 is for ?.

That’s the one thing is dislike with my SW22. Can’t dryfire without snap caps or you’ll bigger up the breach face. The Mark IVs you can dry fire. I had one but sold it. The sights were drilled so far off from the factory that you had to adjust the rear as far over as it would go to get it to...

Yeah they definitely are in the right hands. Between my eyesight and shakiness I’ll always choose the sights a bit further apart lol. But that’ll be my next gun so I’ll have to get better ?

Yeah very true. Good points. I enjoy the heavier framed s&w older revolvers as well (newer one felt much lighter and not made as beefy but I have only tested a couple). My next gun will probably be something smaller I can carry, probably another 9mm since the ammo is cheaper and I can afford to...

Very well could be. I really like the 1911 frame of guns. They fit great in my hands. I don’t have any smaller 9mm, a smaller everyday carry will be my next gun so I’m taking recommendations but glocks feel ok but I haven’t shot with them enough to really tell. My full sized SIG m17 feels great...

True, what’s the saying by Jeff Cooper, beware of the man with one gun? They’re all slightly different, and since handguns are a-lot harder to get good with vs rifles, feel, weight, caliber, grip all probably come into play. I also really love shooting .38 out of a heavier framed .357. Just...

Yeah, good for her having a Dad that’ll teach her. That’s awesome. I was exposed to guns around 5 (with strict father supervision and plenty of safety teachings) but I think if kids are exposed to guns responsibly at a young age they grow up to respect them more and can really do good for the...

For whatever reason I’ve always felt really comfortable shooting 45s vs 9mm. Maybe it because the guns are a bit heavier or the type of ammo I was using, but shooting 45s always felt effortless. I shoot 9mm a bit but grew up shorting a 1911 so maybe that’s why. I e shot 40 a few times and it...

Definitely agree. I’ve never been one run away from a fight (Al least when I was younger) but the way I hear some people talk about guns and what they would do if someone tried to fight them or mess with them etc. makes me think that they don’t necessarily understand the consequences of pulling...

Haha, I’m guessing that if you are in a situation that requires more than 7 well placed shots, you’ve got some explaining to do anyway. My first rule of defense is to never put myself in a situation where I would need a gun. However…shit happens. The last year or two of news stories should...

Damn, the mystery remains. I’ll add in my short experience with Stage 3, they were great. Ordered a Bilstein kit when they said they had only 1 in stock on a Sunday. I called Monday after work to verify that they did in fact have that 1 in stock (I’ve ran into issues where vendor’s have forgot...

The takedown looks awesome. Will definitely be my next 10/22 I buy. I put a Bushnell TRS-25 on it. I believe they consider it a closed reflex. I wanted something cheap to test out, but after using it I really enjoy it. A lot of guys use the Bushnell, Burris FF or the Sig Romeo5. The Bushnell is...

Well I’m out of Oregon thank God, but have you seen the latest? Looks like eastern Oregon wants to secede from the state of Oregon and become part of Idaho. They had been proposing that the last year I was there, doubt it would ever become a thing but a lot of people are pissed off in Oregon.

Yeah it’s weird how SIG does their sight numbers. You can have two identical guns with different number sights. I’m guessing they sight them in and test since they are all fixed sights. I’ll have to check out that link. I had thought about putting on a red dot but haven’t really done much...

They’re always up to something.

They do this every few years. I don’t know too much about this latest one as it really doesn’t apply to what I have but they’ll pass something unconstitutional and while it takes forever to get up to the Supreme Court to get a ruling on, they carry out these restrictions. It’s just a game to...
