    380 Showdown

    In today’s world of concealed carry and subcompacts the old reliable .380 is making a big comeback. The .380 offers enough power to thwart off an attacker while still maintaining easy concealment and control. Recently the opportunity arose to put two popular .380 models to a head to head challenge. The Kel-Tec P3AT vs. the [...]

    Smith & Wesson Sw9VE Review

    Smith & Wesson has been a staple of the firearms world for generations and nowhere close to being a new kid on the block. When I think of Smith & Wesson I automatically think of revolvers. What about the semi-autos that S&W produce? To start off with, here’s the specs on the SW9VE: Frame             Polymer [...]

    Review: Clerke 1st

    If you don’t recognize the Clerke 1st pistol don’t feel like the Lone Ranger.  Manufactured by Clerke Technicorp in Santa Monica California in the early 1970’s, it is not a widely recognized gun or manufacturer for that matter. This particular Clerke is chambered in .22 Long Rifle, wears chrome plating and plastic grips. One of [...]

    Kel-Tec P3AT Review

    The Kel-Tec P3AT in .380 has been on the market for a little while. The first thing you notice about it is the size. The P3AT is easily concealed in most any clothing. And the black finish helps to camouflage it further. I recently took a brand new in the box to the range with [...]

    Dear President Obama- free ammo!

    Right to free ammo! Dear President Obama, I applaud that chic who testified before the world that the right to free abortion drugs and contraception is more important than the right to free expression of religion. It helps us see clearly the only other problem that is actually more important: the right to free ammunition. [...]

    Do You Carry at Home?

    It is nothing new for those with Concealed Carry Licenses to have a gun strapped on when you leaving the house to go about your day to day business. What about when you are at home? Do you carry? In recent years home invasions have become increasingly common. There are many of these homes that [...]

    Lesson Learned

    Gun owners are not surprised at hearing people speak of guns as dangerous or evil. We have faced these comments for many years but know that it is the gun that insures freedom when in the right hands or tyranny in the wrong hands. Most days I browse and read many articles concerning gun ownership [...]

Setting Up Your Shotgun For Sporting Clays

Setting Up Your Shotgun For Sporting Clays

Sporting clays is a refreshing change from the predictability of skeet and the limited variability that the game of trap offers (44 degrees side to side, 5 set positions, 8-12 foot throw height, 16 yd line, etc). Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy shooting Skeet and Trap, it’s just nice having something totally different to [...]

Introducing a New Shooter to Skeet

Introducing a New Shooter to Skeet

I’ve been a wing-hunter for decades, sporting clays shooter for years and a skeet shooter for months. Suddenly, my wife decided that she wanted to give skeet a try. First off, she’s small.. scratch that .. tiny. 4’11″ (4’11 and 1/2″ if you ask her) and about 115 pounds soaking wet. If she was going [...]

NSSA World Skeet Championship: Day Five

In yesterday’s shoot I had shot well. A 97/100 was a great score, but it wasn’t enough to earn a medal – fourth place by a slim margin. On Day Five, I was shooting the 28 gauge event and needed to improve over my mini-world 28 gauge score of 90/100 as a matter of pride [...]

One thing that I’ve done to save some dough for years now is reloading. I’ve been reloading centerfire cartridges since about 1990 and shotgun for the last 2 years. [...]

Claybuster 1034-20 3/4oz 20 gauge Wad [Recipe and Review]

As lead prices rise, it’s always nice to find another way to reduce shooting costs. It is even nicer when that comes with the promise of even lighter kick out of my 20 gauge practice loads. Last weekend I picked up a relatively new offering from Claybuster: their new 20 gauge 3/4oz wad designated CB-1034-20. [...]

Martin/Zimmerman: Fuel For The Democrat Attack Machine

Recently, the Huffington Post Enquirer ran a post regarding the shooting of Trayvon Martin by George Zimmerman in Sanford, Florida, entitled Trayvon Martin Case: ‘Stand Your Ground’ Law At Center Of Shooting. The unwritten implication of this article is that enhanced self-defense laws, such as Florida’s, grant protection to murderers. The left have already begun spinning this killing into [...]
