      45acp vs attacking (Indiana) game

      What is your opinion, and why, on the effectiveness of 45 acp with FMJ ammo as a "woods" round for Indiana? Specifically, using a Glock 21 as protection against any mean critters that I may come across while out in the woods? Please dont go into what other calibers would be better. I know...

      bug out of Boston?

      Surprised I haven't seen more discussion of this. Let's say you live in or near the area being searched. Would you folllow instructions and shelter in place or would you leave the area? If you would leave would you take your bug out supplies? If so do you think they could be a detriment- that is...

      Utah permit in place of Indiana permit?

      I am waiting for the renewal of my Indiana permit. I have a current Utah non-resident permit too. Can I legally carry in Indiana with just the Utah permit while I wait for the Indiana? I will check into this more thoroughly tomorrow but I would like your thoughts on this for now. Thanks.

      downsize to Glock 30 or switch to 26?

      Hopefully some of you with experience with this can help answer these questions: is the Glock 30 significantly easier to carry than the 21sf? Is the 26 significantly easier to carry than the 30? Should I just stick with what I have, carry either the 21 or my snubbie, and save the money? Here...

      Review: Old Faithful IWB holster and belt

      For the last few years I have carried my Glock 21SF in an Uncle Mike's IWB holster. It was cheap and got the job done, and I just as often pocket/IWB carry a 357 snubbie. I figured the holster was good enough. Recently however I decided that I wanted to get a "real" holster in hopes that it...

      Review: Midwest Industries Sling Adaptor

      One day I decided that I did not want to continue using the standard sling attachments on my ar-15 because I didn't like the way the rifle hung against my body. So I started reading reviews and searching for an attachment I could add that would solve the problem. It didn't take long before I was...

      Panther Ridge range near Bloomington info

      I want to share some info about the new Panther Ridge Training Center range, which is about 15 miles outside of Bloomington. I received most of this info from its owner, Jerimiah, and the rest from his brother Matthew (who manages the Bloomington Home and Personal Security Store). I am posting...

      Bloomington self-defense shooting

      I haven't seen much about this on any of the Indy news channels, so here is a link to the HT article. It does not seem you need a login for it: http://www.heraldtimesonline.com/stories/2012/01/04/news.656848.sto This is just a block or so away from where I work and live. We heard the cops go...

      public land for deer recommendation

      My father very recently moved to the state because his health is bad and he wants to spend his time with me and my family here. He has said several times that he would like to go deer hunting; he hasn't hunted for many years since we would go together when I was young (and I have never hunted in...

      vehicle carry law change?

      I have read through many pages in the 2nd Amendment section, as well as some of the actual law text, but I have not been able to fully answer my question, so here goes: Under the new laws, is is legal for a person (with an ltch) to keep a (loaded) handgun in their vehicle, which is parked on...

      officer chases down a petty thief

      Here is a link to a kind of funny story: Half-naked officer chases 98-cent thief Aside from being amusing, it raises the following question in my mind: what if a non-LEO did this? From my reading of the story, the officer chased the man down while carrying his gun in his hand (because he...

      questioning the BOB concept

      About a week ago I sat down to put together my BOB. I already have the BOB supplies (and then some!) nicely organized in Rubbermaid totes in my garage closet, but I didn't have a kit made up and consolidated in a pack. So before doing so I got online and read back through many of the BOB posts...

      Price check: Spike's LE carbine

      I am ready to buy a Spike's Tactical ST-15 Midlength LE carbine. I will shop around until I get the best price, then I will buy it. I do not want any of the additions, just what comes with the basic rifle. Does anybody have a current price on these? If any vendors want to, feel free to PM me...

      please explain ar22's to me

      I am having a hard time finding basic info on ar22s. I understand that I can buy an ar15 pattern rifle, chambered in 22lr, as a complete rifle (what I think is called an ar22). I also understand that there are conversion kits that apparently can allow an ar15 to fire the 22lr. But that is about...

      sks vs mini-14

      So there are many, many threads about the sks vs ak, mini 14 vs ak, mini 14 vs ar-15, sks vs ar 15, and so on. It doesn't seem like much discussion exists comparing the sks and mini-14. So in general what do you think? More specific to my case, I kind of have a desire to get a mini. However, I...

      revolver 'locked up' on me

      Today at the range I shot about 30 rounds of 38sp though my Taurus 357 revolver, then about another 20 of 357 though it. This was all in about 15 minutes or so, and with cheap, dirty ammo. The gun was hot to the touch. I decided to finish by trying some of the new Hornady Critical Defense 357...

      Atterbury range report

      Based on the suggestions in my last post asking where I should go and shoot, I ended up at Atterbury around 11am today. After a couple hours shooting in the handgun and rifle ranges, I left very satisfied and knowing that I found my new range. For those not familiar with the range, here are some...

      help me find a range for tomorrow

      I want to go shooting tomorrow, but I don't know where to go. I know there is a sticky about this, and I know there are several posts, but I don't want to wade through pages of useless info to find what I want. Here are my desires: - Close to my house (I live in Beech Grove) - Outdoor - I can...
