  For Christmas one of the gifts that my daughter and son-in-law got me was a Crimson Trace laser grip for
  my XD40SC. It goes on a little hard, but it's easy to adjust and puts out a nice bright beam. I...

  I have an XD 40 SC. It's a great gun. Goes bang every time, eats whatever I feed it, hits where I aim,
  feels good in the hand, has a great light trigger, and did I mention that it's a great gun. My so...

  Hi Matt,How was the recoil on the DRT ammo that you shot, was it the same as any other frangible or

  I found the following at the Cheaper Than Dirt website. Does anyone have any? If so, does it perform as

  Hi Mark,I'm aware of why they are designed that way by the bean counters and the lawyers. Law suits can

  Hi Guys,I didn't read the other post so I don't know if this website was linked to or not. So at the risk

  Hi Guys,I was referring to strictly self defense loads like hollow point and buckshot only. I haven't
  seen any problems with any of the rifle or FMJ pistol loads. I'm guessing that either people are s...

  I wanted to put in an order for some ammo yesterday and found something I wasn't expecting. Checking with
