    Just looking for some thoughts. I'm looking to retire my 1911 from carry duty. So I've been looking for a compact .45ACP pistol to replace it with. The only thing that I will not purchase is a Glock. While Glock makes a great product I'm just not a fan. But the things I have been looking at...

    So I'm looking for a new IWB Hybrid type holster. The two I've been looking at are the Comp-Tac Spartan and the Crossbreed SuperTuck Deluxe. Between the two I'm thinking Comp-Tac is the better option due the interchangeable kydex bodies and the availability of c-clips. Any other thoughts or...

    Alright so my DPMS is having issues that are strange to say the least. On the last couple of outings I have had issues the rifle failing to fire. I will squeeze the trigger, hear the hammer fall, but no bang. Some times I will see an indentation from the firing pin on the primer sometimes I...
