      How Often Should Guns be cleaned?

      Usually right after firing it, but my CCW once every month or so. Safe sitters get recoated every 6 months to a year if I haven't taken them out to play as lube does dry up. Never bothered me to clean, I just pull the coffee table up and watch whatever happens to be on the dvr. I like summer...

      Handgun temperature for molding kydex?

      The technical data says 360-385 for 0.060" to 0.125", 350ish seems to work for most people. I picked up an IR thermometer last week and checked it out, my sheet gets to about 350-370 while the toaster is set at about 160ish so that's probably where people are getting the low number. My holsters...

      Oakley sunglasses

      I usually like to buy a new pair every 4-5 years even if I don't need to. I've had M-frames, Eye Jackets in the 90s and E-wires and Whiskers in the 00s. I was recently looking at everything since it was about new sunglasses time (mine were dirtyish from almost every day wear), getting tossed...

      Why don't people like a thumb safety on a pistol?

      I don't like having it because I've spent years not having one. You like having one because you've spent years having one. If I wanted to train a safety into my manual of arms, I'd have to buy a new pistol and run it so much that I would never forget, god forbid, if I had to use it. If I want...

      WTS: Springfield XD45 Tactical with 4 mags

      I have a Springfield XD45 Tactical I'm not too fond of. It has 66 rounds through it (67 with the one at the factory) and includes the case and all paperwork. Also included is 2 extra mags (all 4 are the 13 round ones) and another XD Gear double mag holder and a case for those extra items. I also...

      Kydex holster making problems

      Hi all, I've been working on making my own holsters and mag holders but it never quite turned out right. I used the cheap camping mat foam method and I was never really getting any side definition. I decided that I should just spring for the good stuff and maybe that would help. It did help...

      Walther 99

      I agree, the most comfortable handgun I've ever shot. Probably one of the best SA triggers on any non-smithed non-1911 gun if you get an AS. The QA and DAO are not as good in the trigger department, but the ergos are still 100%. Bought mine used (no idea on the round count) and put several...

      What handgun do you carry?

      My Walther P99 AS until I can get a compact either P99c AS or M&P9c. One of those being probably much easier to find, which of course isn't really the one I want. :)

      Best deep concealment handgun?

      I went the P3AT route. Now I know that I wouldn't have gotten expelled or fired as either case could happen if I just left it at home, but I'll tell you what, I would rather be kicked out of school or fired if someone were to actually come in and start shooting people than I would be to just be...

      45 premium ammo

      The best ammo is the one that feeds every time, hits exactly what you want it to, doesn't compromise follow up shots if necessary, and is any one of the fine hollow points on the market. I know that can be an expensive answer, but usually any single one of them will do the job you are asking.

      Glocks and Harleys

      Sure, there are those people who say "get a Harley" but there are also people who actually enjoy riding. Now honestly, those two categories almost never mix. It's quite the same with guns. Now some people have the limited experience of just a Glock, but for the most part you will get from a...
