Somebody said this was a year long battle... wrong!

Its been going on nearly forever, or at least since 1935 when the 357 hit the street, and I can't believe that I'm in it again.

For many years I refused, PERIOD, to carry any auto pistol. No...

My American 180 only holds 177 rounds. Close enough for more fun than anyone deserves... and who has a mag that holds 700 rounds, I want it.

It will cut through a railroad tie and dazzle the...

165 grain Cor-Bon DPX

That's the one for me. Super expansion and very good penetration, just ask the feral hogs around here. I've not shot any men, but, I'd bet the hogs are a good indication of performance.

Re: 9m/m mags for AR-15

Re: Best Small CCW

Absolutely, the Kahr PM9 (model # PM9093) is very small, lightweight and available in 9 m/m or 40 S&W. I will tell you that the 40 caliber job kicks quite a bit, so, the 9 is my choice.

You may find that many shooting ranges offer rental guns. Probably without much in the way of identification as the gun will stay on the premises.
