Empty-Chamber Carry is just Silly

June 11, 2017 by The Arms Guide Leave a Comment

Empty-chamber carry. Some people refer to it as Israeli Carry (which is funny because you don’t actually carry an Israeli with you), and among the naïve and the uninitiated this method of carry is the hotness. On the one hand I blame the lack of confidence that new firearm carriers experience when they just start strapping a handgun to their bodies for the first time. Everyone … [Read more...]

Shooting Is Simple, But It Is Not Easy

June 11, 2017 by Mark Miller 2 Comments

The essential concepts of shooting are quite simple, sight alignment and trigger control, but shooting is not instinctive and it is not easy. As student of shooting, I have always sought to understand things at a fundamental level. For me, shooting is a journey. Here is a description of where I am along the path. Be aware. See first. Think fast and then act without … [Read more...]

Concealed Carry: Lessons Learned.

June 10, 2017 by James Ogletree 1 Comment

So, this year mark 5 years of me being a concealed carry permit holder and almost daily conceal carrier, and in that time I have learned a lot about me, and a lot about other people, and I just want to share my experiences. So, first things first. Concealed carry isn't something you can do 50%, or just add it into your current lifestyle. I tried, and failed epically. For me, … [Read more...]

Shooting the Rock Island Armory .22 TCM

June 10, 2017 by Kevin 12 Comments

Have you ever shot the .22 TCM? I hadn't. While at SHOT Show Industry Day at the Range, I stopped by the Rock Island Armory/ Armscor booth to put a few rounds through Rock Island's double stack .22 TCM 1911 to see how it handled (check out the video embedded above). One of the Armscor engineers explained to me that the purpose behind the .22 TCM round was to develop a small … [Read more...]

What To Buy: Striker Fired vs Hammer Fired Pistols

June 6, 2017 by David Donchess Leave a Comment

A lot of people debate the advantages and disadvantages of the striker and hammer fired pistols. There are definite pros and cons to both systems, but people tend to try to label one or the other as a winner over the other. I find it more helpful to merely evaluate ad judge the systems for what they are good at and where they shine. There are considerations that one must take … [Read more...]

SIG’s modular wonder: The Sriker Fired Pistol P320

June 5, 2017 by Nate Schultz (nsz85) 4 Comments

The hammerless SIG P320 is the first striker fire pistol for gun giant Sig-Sauer. I have always appreciated SIG for their various models of hammer fire handguns, especially the P226, which features a double action/single action. This new gun builds on the reputation of its older cousins, but aims at a whole new market. https://youtu.be/pAK9iS7rqhQ Here are its main … [Read more...]
