      WTS: Bersa Thunder .380

      Less than 1,000 rds through the gun. This tough little pistol has made it through a training course and the every drudgery of concealed carry. It belonged to my mother and was well taken care of, now she wants to be rid of it as she never uses it anymore. (A common theme in my family) With...

      WTS: XD .45, night sights, 4 mags, trigger job.

      So I said I'd never do this, but I simply don't use my .45 XD anymore. It's in perfect condition. I couldn't tell you the exact round count, but I would guess between 1,000 and 2,000 rds through it without a single failure. The gun has served me well for years in training classes, etc. I...

      Scenario for thought exercise

      I would like to think that I would be with it enough to throw the wallet down to distract him, but it's also possible that I would just blow his brains out with a snap shot. The human face is a big target at 2 yards and isn't hard to hit with a 4lb trigger. Then I would turn and let his buddy...

      Carry Ammo

      This is an excellent article. IMO Mac does ignore some of the very real disadvantages of the 9mm and ignores momentum and inertia's role in penetration, but no article is perfect. It pretty much addresses how "stopping power" works. With any effective round you would use, over penetration is...

      Curing the Tactical Turtle

      Though TBK is being his usual, brash self, :p I have to agree with him up to a point. I hear all of the time from people who have never been in a fight that "oh you'll fail to get your safety off", "you'll never see your sights", "you won't be able to help this" Blah Blah Blah Bullcrap...

      Self defense question about provocation.

      1- He's now trespassing on your property and causing problems. Legally he's screwed and you're fine. 2- Reasonable requests are not considered initiating a fight 3- All of this is going to boil down to how believable your story is and how credible you seem to the investigating detective, and...

      First Time Appendix Carry

      Congrats on figuring out the safest way to carry!! Yes I know all of the nay-sayers are going to post "OMG YOU'RE GONNA SHOOT YOUR DICK OFF!!! BLAH BLAH FURTHER INCOHERENT NONSENSE" Here's the deal. Use a kydex holster, always manually check your holster before inserting the charged firearm...

      Heightened sense of awareness

      Training does change you somewhat. Have you taken any professional instruction or stress innoculation? Those things coupled with a change in mindset, (and it sounds like you've had the later) definitely does it to you. Having criminal encounters also does it to the nth degree. As I've found...

      Hey you Appendix Carry Guys....

      Hahaha I helped thread jack my own thread. Senarios with the special units however are not always proactive. Those guys get bushwhacked too. And guys carrying AR type weapons get surprised all of the time or attacked in their sleep. (See Afghanistan, Vietnam, etc) Just like guys with 1911s get...

      Hey you Appendix Carry Guys....

      Some are indeed morons. Some are not. The idea that well trained people don't make mistakes, holster's don't grow fingers, shirts don't grab triggers, etc is a fantasy. #(&% Happens. And excuse me if I like having the ability to thumb safety a weapon, thereby disabling it, and put it in its...

      Your Gunfight: The Reality

      Don't try to play the "what am I most likely to run into" game. There is no such thing as the "most likely thing I am going to run into" because statistics arent applicable to the individual. You have no idea where you are going to fall into the pie until it happens (or doesn't). Take my...

      Your Gunfight: The Reality

      I didn't post a reference page as this is INGO, not a college midterm paper. I believe the DOJ study I looked at took place over 2008/09? I've been meaning to give FS a call and ask them where they got their 2.5 stat. I totally believe it though as all but one of my criminal encounters...

      Trooper shot, bad guy dead.

      I'll never understand the criminal who chooses to try and rob a building filled with guns and gun toting people during the middle of the day. :dunno: :ar15:
