      Anyone duracoat a gun themselves?

      I have some older guns that I want to test it out on first. It seems like a cool project.

      Anyone duracoat a gun themselves?

      Yes, I did a search already. :D I've seen this stuff in person and am impressed. I'd have a couple guns I'd like to coat. They sell a spray kit on their website and it has good reviews, but I'd like real world reviews. How did it turn out? Happy with the results? Is it pretty tough?

      .45 ACP COAL question

      You also have to consider bullet shape/length. Not all bullets of similar weight will be the same length. As far as pressure, you need to be concerned with how deep the base of the bullet is seated.

      When your J Frame isn't enough

      I've carried a S&W 642 J frame for years and always felt adequate with it. My first tool is situational awareness. My second is my running skills. :D

      Kentucky gun registration bill introduced

      KY is my part time home. That bill sounds like a bunch of crap to me. Like some of you, I'm surprised to hear this coming from KY.

      gun to hike with

      It depends on how far you plan on going. I hiked 17 miles in 1.5 days at Red River Gorge in KY once with a Ruger Redhawk 44 7.5" barrel. It wasn't fun and I won't do it again. I'm not sure of the exact weight, but I could feel it holding me down.

      Why you should keep your hands away from the cylinder

      I love Hickock45. I never realized the amount of force there, nor do I care to find out the hard way.

      .45 ACP COAL question

      This. I don't reload 230's so can't really comment much. All of my loads are LSWC or LRNFP. I can say that as far as OAL specs go, I don't follow them to a "T".

      Appendix holster?

      Looks like the Vanguard 2 is the same thing, just with a belt loop. Looks to me like you could wear it mexican style, albeit safely. They even say on the description "inside the waistband".

      Didn't think about that...:ugh::bash:

      Appendix holster?

      That Raven Vanguard looks promising. Anything to reduce thickness will help. cheap too. edit... I ordered the Vanguard. I figure for $20 I'll try it. I'm still gonna order another, more traditional holster.

      Range bag choice

      I hate to give up my secret, but I use a rolling laptop bag for my range bag. I can easily fit multiple handguns in it, there are pockets for mags, a slot for spent brass, etc. The best thing is when it's fully loaded and heavy, I just pull out the telescoping handle and wheel it around! :D...

      Hawk Identification Help

      Those darned brown ones are the hardest to identify. I can only tell a red-tail by their size and tail feathers.

      Hello from the south side!

      I drive through there on my way to Bedford a couple times a month. One day I'll make that Persimmon festival... wait, that's in Orleans. lol
