Re: want to buy a bcm 14 inch rifle have questions

Yes. But it depends on the length of the muzzle device, e.g. standard a2 flash hider on a 14.5" barrel won't make 16" overall, so still sbr or pistol even if pinned and welded. It will surpass 16" overall on a 14.7" though. Which brake is it?

Re: Just got my CCW, go for the P365X?

Whatever and however you carry, my only $0.02 is carry as often as you possibly can. Even around the house, in your vehicle, going for a walk/run/bike ride, doing yard work, etc... Quickest way to figure what works and what doesn't. Example, I carry a G26 AIWB. How do I bend down to pick up an 80# s...

Re: If you could only have one rifle, and one cartridge for AZ hunting, what would it be?

For the past 15 +/- years it's been a Browning X-bolt in 308. 168-gr bullets in the >2,600-fps muzzle velocity range will do it all in AZ.

Re: Recommended Book - Where There Is No Doctor

Thanks for the link to download. Looks like a good resource. Probably still worth picking up a hardcopy.

Re: holster recommendations

Didn't see anyone mention Comp Tac. Lately, EDC has been the EV2 Max. Like it so far. I'm a fan of the leather kydex hybrids.

Re: Moving to Mesa/Gilbert area.

Best of luck to you. Glad you're house doubled. You're going to need it, as others have said. Ours has tripled in 8 years, out here in SE Valley. Or you thinking of starting off renting? Though, from what I've heard, the rental market is bonkers too.

Never seen this before. Will check it out. Thanks.

FWIW. For food preservation, a good resource is "Putting Food By." Was just referring to its section on tomatoes today TBH.

Re: Opinions, Ruger Super GP 100 9mm

Curious if it wouldn't be prone to bullet creep like other 9mm revolvers.

Re: Safer storage of grocery store canned foods with pre-scored pull tops?

Interesting query. But I agree with other comments about maintaining regular rotation of all canned goods. I think a good organization system is more important (so you don't have hidden/ forgotten items), than trying to come up with a clever solution to an otherwise non-issue. Example: get those can...

Re: fun, educational carbine drill

Nice.
I do something similar. Some mags loaded full, others random. Sometimes mix in different capacity mags too. Train to shoot til empty/failure, check, drop mag and reload or fix failure, repeat.

Re: Side charging AR's

Years ago, I was so close to getting an ASA non-recip upper for my 9mm when they first came out. Saw them at a gun show and coveted it for quite a while. But ultimately, I decided it was better to just run what I had and keep the same battery of arms on all my ARs. Side chargers are cool, but IMHO t...
