I’ve been getting back into cycling recently. In doing so, I’ve been spending some time on message boards, and subreddits relating to the topic to get caught up on things as I’ve been off the bike for about 7 years. I’ve noticed some interesting parallels between the cycling and shooting communities, but I’ve also noticed one big glaring difference: Almost all cyclists have data. I came across a thread on a road bike forum where …

Cycling was my primary hobby for a long time before I got into shooting. I reluctantly gave it up about 7 years ago when I was having some issues with numbness in my hands that I couldn’t deal with. I’ve decided to pick it back up since I’ve lost about 65lbs, figuring I might not experience the hand numbness issues now that there’s less of me. Way back on the podcast we answered a question …

And I witnessed two knuckleheads squaring off in what began as a parking misunderstanding and was quickly escalating into people screaming, pounding on their cars, and was probably about to get physical any time. It all started when one family finished up their meal at the restaurant next door, and got into their SUV. As they were backing out, a pickup truck pulled up, and blocked the SUV from going forward. Other cars pulled in …

I’ve been loading ammo on my Lee Turret Press for about a year and a half now, and I’ve loaded somewhere north of 10,000 rounds of 9mm on it. That whole time I’ve been using the Lee Auto-Disk powder measure. In the beginning I was using Unique powder for 9mm, and I didn’t have any complaints with the Auto-Disk. It threw charges that were accurate enough, and it worked fine. However, a few months back …

The IDPA World Shoot took place this last week in Oklahoma. Today, the internet is up in a huff about a shooter at the World Shoot who was DNF’d at the match because he was registered in SSP division and had a stippled grip module on his Sig P320. The SSP rules say the following: 8.2.1.3.16 Stippling and texturing may be performed on readily replaceable parts of the grip frame such as replaceable back straps …

A conversation with a friend this morning: Ain’t that the truth?

There is so much of this in the shooting world. “Scan and assess” “Don’t look at your holster” “Don’t watch your reload” “Don’t let your finger leave the trigger on the reset” There is so much of this in the shooting world. “Scan and assess” “Don’t look at your holster” “Don’t watch your reload” “Don’t let your finger leave the trigger on the reset” Posted by Triangle Tactical on Thursday, September 17, 2015

Ben just might be a genius. Like most of you I assume, adding distance to my dryfire isn’t the easiest thing to do, because my house is small. With a 1/3 scale target, I can get a scaled 25y if I stand at the very back of my garage and make use of every inch. That isn’t great for practicing the further distance targets much. I have some 1/6 and 1/12 scale dryfire targets, but …

I did not have a good time, apparently. I don’t remember why I had a bad time but I think the lesson here is that I still shoot IDPA, and I like it for what it is.

First and foremost: the stickers aren’t for sale. If you want one, you’ll have to earn it. I’m really excited about these stickers, so I went out and bought a book of stamps and I’m going to mail off stickers to the bunch of people that send me voicemails for the Q&A podcast until I run out of stamps. Here’s how to get a sticker: Record a voicemail question for the Q&A podcast. You can …
