+1 Zack at ZR Tactical,
Great shop!
I've been doing business with him for 3 yrs. Everything from multiple cerkote jobs, to flutting barrels, trigger jobs, sight installations, customizing two different rare Colts. He communications well, fast turn around, very personable, honest &...
In Nov. 1974 out in a rural area out side Clarksville, TX, @ 4 miles from the nearest paved farm to market road. I was 14 yrs. old, walking in the woods, in a light rain, to deer hunt with my Dad. I was carrying my newer beloved 30-30 pump rifle. We came to the back of a farmers field heading...
Me and my brother will be there. At this point Hotels are getting tight. I'm in Franklin, TN, 15 miles away from downtown Nashwille. If you are thinking of going, get the hotel yesterday.
In an earlier post, some smart ass told you to Google gun belts, there are dozens of them? Wow, my guess you were looking for some actual experience with quality belts from personal use?
I've used some of the Wilson Gun Leather products. I especially like their "shark skin" but they have reg...
Pants-Tru Spec 24/7--40% cotton/60% polyster blend ripstop pants. I have 4 pair of shorts and 4 pair of long regular BDU pants. Good for competition, general wear or maybe at work (if you can). You can buy them on line through many outlets (Galls, limited colors but even at the NRA site). The...
The Springfield XDs-9 mm has magazines which comes with the gun or can be bought (factory magazines) either in 7 rd. or 9 rd. I have 5 factory 9 rounders. I know Pearce grip makes the finger extension (I have three for the 7 rd. magazine). Does anyone know of a manufacturer which makes a real...
Check out the Trijicon HD sights. They have tritridium night sights both front & back, but the front sight also has luminous either orange or yellow paint around the tritridum front sight insert. Great in day light or after dark. Great sight for carry or competition.
Purchasing at NRA Convention
You can't buy firearms at the show, if your a non-dealer, not even sure if you can, if you are a dealer. However, as a non-dealer at the St. Louis show and the Houston show last year, we bought items from Blade-Tech and some VZ 1911 grips. If I could have...
I see guns like tools, you may have in your garage. You don't have just one type of screw driver or one wrench. Number one for me is quality & application/need. Do I have a need for a hunting rifle or shotgun, defensive/protection, plinking or pure fun, competition, gun for a new shooter...
This is just one man's opinion. Yes, their pricing on ammo & guns are way too high usually 20-30% higher. To me however, it is bigger than just higher prices. The people which work at the gun counter seem soulless, the people that work there are robotic. They don't greet customers, if you...
There is a guy named Jim (vendor), which has been at every Indy 1500 show for the last five years, since I moved here. I'm hoping somebody has his last name and phone number?
He is the guy that has the awesome old S&W revolvers, old Colts, etc., plus the best exotic grips (think stag, ivory...
In one word..."Jessie"!
To gaze at Jessie Duff (noob, look her up...well woth it). Jessie is awesome, but really, the show itself is worth the trip, take the 1500 gun show x 4 in size and x 7 in awesomeness! I like the show to be able to speak to the manufactureres. At the 1500 Indy show...
This is another example of political correctness and over reacting to a freedom of expression action! In the big picture, as a nation, if we don't stop with the p.c. thinking in this country it will lbe the down fall of a great nation!
Range
Wes225,
Had you given any thought to shooting with your buds any of the existing shooting sports, which might give you the adrenline dump & practice your gun handling skills? Like USPSA, IDPA, 3-gun or a just a carbine match? All can be done on any weekend at the various existing clubs...
