November 22nd, 2020 23:28 runtime This video is the fifth of the series. Next up is setting the trigger pull weight, and checking the trigger fitment. Safety First Next on deck for Yam is installing the safety. In the “1911 Duty Tune” series from Panteao Productions, 1911 expert Hilton Yam gives you the tuning tips you need. However, he leaves the choice up to the shooter. He also touches on how ambidextrous safeties work, how they function, and how to install them....

But just like apple versus cherry pie, its really going to come down to personal preference. But why not take a bite of both? In this approach, a specific order must be followed. However, shooters are still able to find small strategic advantages to get an edge on the competition. These rules apply to all stages regardless of the layout. Tactical priority (TP) is determined based on where the targets are....

Seeking Truth? Yeah, there is truth to some of those things to varying degrees. But, with todays modern handgun designs andmodern ammunition, is the accuracy gap really a thing? The Hellcat made a nice, but larger group still not one to be ashamed of. The second volley of five from each was taken at a faster pace. However, I was surprised how wrap up the two guns came to each other on accuracy....

Odd, yes, but it has a lot of benefits for hunters and shooters alike. Be sure to read our article on thedifference between 300 Blackout and 5.56. Failure to Launch? Does your .300 BLK function every shot, every time? Are you using the right magazine? So, who is right? It may work exceptionally for some and mediocre at best for others. This is where a dedicated .300 BLK magazine can be tremendously useful....

We also need to keep in mind that it is the movies. When people ask, Whats the best gun out there; a shotgun, sub-gun, rifle, pistol? The appropriate answer should be For what? If its for a1,000-yard shot, odds would be against you onusing a pistol. Conversely, aprecision riflemight be too cumbersome for use in every-day concealed carry. Ballistic Weapons Because it launches a high-velocity projectile, a firearm is considered a ballistic weapon....

November 17th, 2020 11:48 runtime More isnt always better. In fact, theres often a point of diminishing returns. From my naive viewpoint, Ive always kind of looked at the10mm roundthat way. It was just too much of a good thing. Too long, too loud, too powerful, too much recoil. Then again, until last week, Id never even shot a 10mm. My opinions were simply based off of gun lore and not personal experience....

But, that role has sometimes been more as a supportive player. Keen-eyed viewers will notice there isnt a single M14 seen in the shootout with Goldfingers Chinese soldiers, however. Instead the U.S. soldiers are armed with a mix of submachine guns andM1 Carbines! The M1As biggest screen appearance was in the 2012 thrillerJack Reacher, starring Tom Cruise.

Its not just buying the food or ammo or gear, its having a place to put it all. However, theres an incredible source of free lumber right under your nose in the form of pallets. What Are Pallets? Theyre often made out of pine or oak and are usually heat-treated. Theyre safe to use and can be excellent both left intact or disassembled for the individual lumber pieces.

On the surface they look fairly similar. USPSA was formed in 1984 and was originally defense-oriented. However, it has definitely grown into more of a technical/speed-based sport. IDPA was developed years later, in 1996, and was and still is mostly defensive/tactically oriented. While they are comparable in many ways, Id call them cousins before Id call them brothers. If you want the detailed rules, go check out the super-engaging online rulebooks for USPSAhereand IDPAhere!...

Certainly, the gun is an important part, but without proper support gear, the gun is useless. For example, a gun needs thebest defensive ammo. A concealed carry handgun needs a belt and a holster. The Hellcat is durable and shootable, and its size makes it very carryable. The Burdette HC3 for the Hellcat OSP is an outstanding holster for discreet carry. It is compatible with a wide range ofred dot sights available for the Hellcat....

People have been buying them as quickly as the company can make them. Im one of those owners, and Ive been thrilled with my purchase. In addition to the standard version, Springfield Armory offers the Hellcat with OSP options. The HEX Wasp, shown here, is one of the best micro-red dot sights available for the Springfield Hellcat. The result is a means for low-mounting a micro-optic that will allow co-witnessing with the pistols excellentU-Dot sights....

Drums dont work, right? But Magpul only makes stuff that works. Magpul only gets into the game if they can make a quality product. Thats why their name carries so much respect. The former of those is the 60-round 5.56mm D-60, and the latter is the D-50 7.62mm drum. Magpul released the D-60 drum first and followed it up shortly with the D-50 drum. Capacity of the drums is no mystery its right there in the names....

Approximately 1,500 sights for the tank gadget had reportedly been made by Zeiss by the end of January 1945. German plans were to equip every infantryman armed with the StG44 with the 30-degree variant of the Krummlauf. I found some interesting U.S. The release of the gas through the auxiliary barrel ports relieved much of the apparent strain on the mechanism. It was anticipated that this weapon would be difficult to control, and test firing verified these estimates....
