How Far Will a 9mm Kill?
Published: November 6, 2014 { 7 comments }From IraqVeteran8888: “In this second part of our “How Far Will a 9mm Kill?” series we test the expansion characteristics of Federal HST 124gr ammunition at long range. We want to make it clear that, per the manufacturer, this ammunition is not designed to expand at extended ranges. We test the ammunition at 7 yards as a control, then proceed to dial in the artillery (KelTec Sub 2000) and drop some rounds in at 440 yards (400 meters). The results may surprise you…”

Rock Solid Rifle Case from Flying Circle Bags
Published: November 6, 2014 { 0 comments }Transporting firearms is an art form. I’ve tried everything. My go-to case is a long heavy Pelican case that I jam several guns into. But that set-up isn’t practical if I have to walk any distance, or carry the case over rough terrain. Flying Circle Bags has an option that is growing on me–their Scoped Rifle Case is a heavy duty rifle bag that is surprisingly versatile, and very affordable.

Deep Concealment – Pocket, Neck, Trigger Gaurd Holsters
Published: November 5, 2014 { 20 comments }I had a conversation with several other gun writers yesterday about carrying a gun on your belt. The consensus was that if I am going to belt carry a pistol, it ain’t gonna be no pocket 380. My experience over the years is that belt carry is seldom practical unless you want your whole life to revolve around carrying your gun. For that reason, I pocket carry, and as a fairly big guy, I can easily get away with the Springfield XD-S .45 in my pocket. Once before in these pages I shared my “secret” $25 source for pocket holsters, and I will do so again, but this time I want to share some of the other products from this ingenious company. If you carry in a purse, pocket or other “pouch” type of concealment, or if you want to hang a Kel-Tec P32 from your neck, you should check them out. I call these deep concealment holsters.
