    LaserMax?

    imported post Just wondering if anyone has any first-hand experience with LaserMax lasers. Now that I've built up a bit of a handgun collection I'm turning my attention and (non) disposable income towards accessories such as lights and/or lasers and the LaserMax set-up would seem to simplify...

    .380 FMJ for personal defense?

    imported post Any thoughts on using .380 FMJ ammo for personal defense? I just picked up a Kahr P380 (SWEET gun!) and I was talking to a guy at the range about ordering JHPs to carry and he opined that with the inherent weakness of the .380 FMJ might be a better choice for the extra...

    Glock rocks!

    imported post Now this isn't meant to start a "my plastic is better than your plastic" argument but I just had a great experience with the people over at the Glock U.S. HQ in Smyrna GA and had to heap some praise. I stopped by the HQ to ask about an issue I was having with the recoil spring...
