Re: How many guns are in your CCW "remuda"?

How's the quality/reliability on the Kel Tec? I'm thinking of getting a P32.

Question How many guns are in your CCW "remuda"?

I use quite a few guns from time to time for CCW.

The ones that I use most often are a Glock 26 and a Taurus 85CH .38. After that comes a Glock 22 and a Ruger 3" Sp101.

But from time to time I...

Re: Opinions on .35 Remingtom

I saw .35 Remington ammo on line recently for only $14.95/20.

But I forget where, so that's not a lot of help, is it? :)

Re: 30.30. Lever action

Marlin makes the best .30/30 lever action, imo.

But it's an excellent brush gun cartridge for deer and black bear. Lots of oldtimers swore by it and...

Re: What Is the Best Conceal Carry Weapon?

There is no "one best".

I have several CCWs that I carry, depending on the situation.

If I had to pick only one, I'd go with my Glock 26.

But I don't have to pick only one, so I don't.

I agree with you about RemOil, it's too thin to use as a long term lube. Like WD40, it's a pretty good "wipe down" rust preventative, though.
