Perfect practice makes perfect, and a training regimen should vary to include live and dry fire. Above all else is safety, so when you are not at the live fire range and are training with dry fire, safety is paramount, Chamber flags are a great indicator that a firearm is clear; however, they must be…
The title may sound a bit strange, but if you understand that nothing really needs to be done to the new Colt Combat Elite, to make it ready for the holster or race track it makes more sense. The new Combat Elite is a family of pistols from the Government size to Commander and…
I am a firm believer in using correct terminology but I don’t really get all bent out of shape when someone continues to use an incorrect term. Water off a duck’s back is how I look at that. In the past year I have been getting right many strongly worded emails and facebook messages explaining…
9mm Luger ballistic test The 9mm Luger, also know as the 9 x 19 Parabellum, was introduced in 1902 by Georg Luger and Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken (DWM) for the German Luger semi automatic sidearm.

Lone Wolf custom match pistol, almost cheating. It is no secret I like the Lone Wolf aftermarket Glock parts, especially their barrels. They do add a degree of accuracy but also allow to shoot lead bullets through your Glock, safely. You can see where I reviewed the Lone Wolf 9mm threaded barrel here and their…
I was sent this by a friend and was assured it was correct. I did contact the FBI and the ATF in attempt to verify. The ATF was unaware of such a test and the few folks I spoke to at the FBI had not heard of the test but I was told, if such…
AAC Illusion9 9mm silencer, a new twist. Silencers are rapidly becoming common place, and I see that as a good thing.
