Re: Love My Glock 20 Gen5!


Tim at TT Gunleather has made most of my holsters for about 15 years ever since my other custom holster maker passed away, You may want to check 'TT Gunleather out. If you do tell him I sent you. Here is my last one for my Dan Wesson DWX. I usually use the easy on and off snap holsters, but ...

Re: Love My Glock 20 Gen5!


Congrats on your new purchase. :cheers2: Now its time for a new holster. I recommend the Tucker holsters both leather and Voltron if you havent gotten one yet. My every day carry is the SIg P320 compact. I wish you many happy gun range trips with your new Glock.


Thanks for the recommendation ...

Love My Glock 20 Gen5!

Picked it up at my local FFL a few days back.

Heard from some sources that it has "heavy recoil" but at the range I found it was about the same as my Glock 30SF in .45 ACP. Very manageable.

It does have a large grip so it might not be the right choice for those with small hands.

It is my desk ...

Re: Which is easier to Maintain, a Mini-14 or an AR15


Thinking about buying either a Ruger Mini-14 or some AR15 clone for home protection ("up close and personal" out to about 300 yds).
In general, which is easier to maintain, including disassembly and reassembly?
Also, I understand that, because of twist rate of the Mini-14 (1 in 9), it probably ...

My New Carrier Revolver and an Addition to my Gun Bench

Howdy, Folks,
Hope everybody is well.

Yesterday I picked up my new carry revolver from one of my local FFL's. It is a Ruger LCR six-shot revolver in .327 magnum. It has good ballistics compared to the .38 special rounds I had been carrying before. I fired a 100 grain Gold Dot hollow-point round ...

Re: EDC flashlight


A first report on the Streamlight ProTac 1L-1AA, It came yesterday and it arrived in perfect condition. Midway boxed it very well. It has 3 modes, high, strobe, and low. One click for high, two for strobe, and three for low. I didn't like that so did the 10 tap reprogram and now it is a high only ...

Re: EDC flashlight

I have several Streamlight Pro-Tac flashlights. Recommend them highly. You can find them over on Amazon.
I carry one in my pocket and have another zip-tied to an old Harrington Richardson Breech-Loading Single shot shotgun in
case I run into a rattlesnake crawling out in the yard at night.

Rossi R95 Lever-Action

Today I picked up a Rossi R95 lever-action in 30-30 at my local gun store. I think it is based off the Marlin design.

Got it mainly for sentimental reasons as the first deer I shot when I was 15 was with my dad's 30-30 which was later stolen out of his house when I was off to college.

Did not have ...

Re: TX: Sheila Jackson Lee

I heard Whitmire won. Remember, Lee is the one who infamously said the AR15 shoots 50 caliber bullets and is as heavy as 10 moving boxes.

Re: Please Folks---Always Follow Firearm Safety Rules!

At least two rules were violated here. First, he pointed a rifle at somebody--don't do that.

Second, he dropped the mag but failed to rack the slide/charging handle. There was a live round
in the chamber.

Drop the mag--rack the slide--twice--then visually check the chamber and breech for any ...

TSA Approved Lock or Non-TSA Approved Lock?

What type of lock do you guys recommend for your case when flying?
and,
Most of the cases I see have slots for two locks---should you use two locks or is one lock sufficient?
I bought an Eylar case and it should get here in a few days.
Thanks!
