I'm really liking the Trijicon HD's. I have them on my XD-S now and have a set I need to install on my 1911. The front sight is very easy to quickly pick up with it's bright orange dot. With the rear containing only the tritium vials with no outlines, it doesn't distract from the front sight...
Sig does make a "Traditional" slide profile line.

I have a TACOPS with the traditional slide profile and it fits every holster for a 1911 I have tried it in.
Very nice pistol BTW. Very well made and tight...
Correct. I wanted to clarify this and contacted the VA State Police. According to them, my current Active Military status meets this requirement, all that is needed is a copy of your current Military ID. I was also told that my DD Form 214 showing an honorable discharge would also be accepted if...
I bought one of the New Frontier lowers for a budget build for the Mrs. It will primarily be used with a .22LR conversion, so I'm not too worried about the lower being polymer. It is definitely light-weight, yet seems very strong. I have swapped the fire control group out with a standard trigger...

Most firearm ignorant people I know are extremely surprised when they find out I reload ammunition and that it's even possible. Most end up educated and actually find it very interesting usually accompanied by 'can I try?'
This was my first multi gun match and I had a great time. Tony put on a great match and I thank everyone involved in running and attending the match.
I will echo Jon's statement about knowing your equipment and zeroes/holds at various distances. I cleared every stage under the par, but I also...
I fixed an issue the online version had with some of the powders producing the wrong VMD when selected. It seems the reference data somehow got mixed up when I converted it to flash. I've checked each individually and they are all now correct.
My appologies to anyone who used it already and...
I just finished up a simple calculator that will produce charge weights for the LEE Auto Disk powder measure for a given powder based off of Lee's data.It will also provide the volume (cc) for a desired charge and also give you which disks to use for a double disk set up.
Simply choose your...
I was referring to your statements about "why don't you just spend your time shooting the squirt gun game at the fair" and "If people are REALLY just thinking about ONLY plinking paper when they purchase a BATTLE RIFLE that costs 28c + per shot for commercial ammo, then they are missing the...

I've been to an actual combat zone, and carried an actual 'combat rifle' every day for over a year on a two way range. Having a weapon in those conditions compared to having a weapon back home are VERY DIFFERENT. Any type of shooting I've done back here in Indiana with my personal rifle has been...
While the site has good information, the conduct and sense of 'brand elitism' of some of it's most active members in regards to those with 'inferior' weapons is rediculous. They do literally answer most questions with "buy a Colt or BCM". You are lambasted for bringing up the fact that you might...
I've been wanting an AK and have been looking at the Arsenal SLR-106FR. It's 5.56mm/.223 which is great for me because it maintains my ammo commonality with my AR platform rifles. One less caliber I have to keep on stock. This and I've also heard they are quite accurate.
I had a WASR-10/63...
I wanted to share some targets I created to assist in zeroing an Aimpoint optic. I was always unsatisfied with using other targets to zero my Aimpoints as I felt as if I was guessing whether or not to dot was correctly centered over the target. I created these to address my concerns and they...
