    So I've been doing some learning...

    ... and boy! has my shooting improved. I hope by telling my story I can help readers choose the right gun, learn to shoot better, and avoid my mistakes. I do not consider myself to be an "expert" but rather a student who has been shown a better path. Things I state here can be proven in person...

    Safariland ALS

    I recently went holster shopping for my 1911 and found this: http://www.safariland.com/DutyGear/product.aspx?pid=6378 the Safariland ALS. I'm generally not a fan of moulded plastic holsters but this one was special enough for me to take a second look at. At less than $60, it's a good price to...

    Which 1911?

    I'm considering buying a 1911 for carrying, range, and to tinker with. I'm looking for a quality out of the box side arm that won't break the bank. I've been doing some research and I've come up with two candidates, Tarus and Ruger. Both have similar price tags ($700-$750) and similar...

    So my friend wants to buy a gun...

    I have a shipmate I know pretty well. He's been thinking that he'd like to have a gun with the recent crime spree in his neighborhood. He just wants to protect himself and his family. Here's the catch, he's Arab. He's an American citizen in his mid 40's who's never been in trouble with the...
