    Best way to secure pistol in truck?

    I agree with you. Everyone just needs to be prepared for what ever happens during a shooting event and after how ever they think best. I’m always worried or concerned but at the same time I’m prepared. Practice and train, practice and train…….. Maybe a better word instead of worried is aware...

    Best way to secure pistol in truck?

    If your worried about getting sued, need to leave the gun at home Sorry, have to strongly disagree. If you carry concealed and have to use your weapon even if completely justifiable and completely within the law, you likely will be sued civilly by spouse or family of the victim. They may lose...

    Best way to secure pistol in truck?

    A lot to comment on here. First an fyi I’ve been a gun guy since my dad gave me my first gun at 9 years old. Was an NRA certified instructor, and a hunter safety instructor. Been a hunter my whole life. I’m an old guy now. Still shoot and train at the range one to three times a month. It’s one...

    Listing to port side

    I’ve been around boats my whole life and have never seen a boat design anything like that. I can’t imagine any advantage of any kind for a design like that. I only see major disadvantages to a boat like that. What ever type of fishing you do there are lots of boat designs that would be far...

    Listing to port side

    That is interesting. I’ve never seen a boat set up like that with OB on one side and having to balance it by putting weight on the other side.First thing that comes to mind to correct this is to try adjusting the trim tab. Also even though you think the weight distribution is even it may not...

    Don't know what I got

    It hasn’t been started in 20 years? I would bet it’s not exactly going to fire right up. There are a hundred things I would check and do before turning the key. First thing I’d do is check the gas tank. Any tiny bit of fuel left in there for 20 years has turned to a gelatinous mess. You likely...

    Need Help & Advice on a Purchase....

    I personally would generally go for a newer lower hour boat. They are both older boats so you can expect some problems now and in the future. Salt water trips is better than all or mostly in salt water. If you lean toward one then spend the $$$ and have a mechanic check it out. Do not buy...

    So I know I have a sig 1911 45 caliber

    Not positive what specific model you have but those slots on each side of the frame below the barrel/front of the slide are rails. Rails are mounting platforms you can mount things like lights, lasers etc.

    Liqui Moly ceratec engine oil additive any good?

    I concur, oil additives are snake oil. It’s marketing that sells them, it isn’t because they do anything for your engine. If you follow the owners manual and change your oil and filter at recommended intervals and use recommended viscosity oils you’ll get long engine life and there will be no...

    G sight users?

    In your case it sounds like a good alternative. Anyone who keeps a gun for self defense, home defense should practice and if you can’t go to the range your method sounds like the best alternative.

    G sight users?

    I think it’s a pretty good system for new and inexperienced shooters to get use to handling, shooting and aiming and to learn some basics. For experienced shooters go to the range. Im currently training a young woman in gun self defense and preparing her to get her ccw who is being stalked by a...

    Gun ownership and permits.

    Your home owners or car insurance would not cover you if you are charged with a crime. That’s why people who conceal carry should have special insurance

    Gun ownership and permits.

    That is actually a tough question. Too many factors and unknowns to give you a definitive answer. I can tell you though if you just run over people you will be sued and you may be prosecuted. If you shoot someone even if justified and in self defense you will be sued and you also may be...

    Gun ownership and permits.

    Ok here’s my 2 cents worth. I am a former NRA certified pistol instructor and a former hunter safety instructor. Haven’t instructed in over 20 years. I’m still an active range shooter, 1 to 2 times a month and still do some shotgun clay shooting.(these are some of my hobbies) All of my guns are...

    Gun ownership and permits.

    Not sure why you figured that but my response is factual and truth. As far as I recall I’ve never expressed any politics or political views on this site but perhaps there is such a post I do not remember. I do not visit this site with the purpose of expressing political views.

    Gun ownership and permits.

    Read his publications and draw your own conclusions. Wikipedia is a left leaning and left biased . Multiple studies, including two from Harvard researchers, found a left-wing bias at Wikipedia in both article content and editor sanctioning. I have 2 friends that are well known and can be found...

    Gun ownership and permits.

    People use a gun in the US a couple hundred thousand times a year to stop and deter a crime. They seldom have to fire it but just displaying, showing, pointing is enough to stop or prevent a crime. This information comes from a book by John Lott titled More Guns, Less Crime. John Lott is an...

    Odyssey Battery

    I had a Costco battery in one of my boats that was still going strong at 11 years old. I had no idea it was that old. I installed a second battery to run an electric trolling battery and noticed the date on the old one was 11 years old. I replaced it the same day. I’m ordinarily a fanatic on my...
