      Detect Slide Lock by Feel

      A couple weeks back I took some advanced pistol training. One of the instructors was a nationally ranked competitive shooter. I mentioned to him how I'm trying sensitize myself to watch for slide lock. (Occasionally at the range I don't notice and pull the trigger despite being at slide lock.)...

      Is as .22-LR AR-15 Really an AR-15?

      I'm considering buying this Tippmann Arms "AR-15" chambered in .22-LR (Link: M4-22 ELITE at Palmetto State Armory). Then I considered the legalities for Maryland. AR-10's are not a problem and they differ by caliber from AR-15's. And I reasoned that if this "AR-15" is native (not a conversion...

      Real vs. SIRT vs. Blue Guns

      I'm curious to know other's opinions on protocols for real pistols, in contrast with SIRT pistols or mere blue-gun pistols. I do dry fire with real pistols (where, "dry fire" = "unloaded") following this protocol: Dry fire in a room with no ammo Dry fire toward a proper backstop (for me, a...

      Dropping Magazines

      I normally shoot at an indoor range on a hard floor. To practice quick reloads, I want to drop empty mag's on the floor. And from dry fire practice, I know the mag's will bounce and scoot 3+ feet when they land on the carpet. Problem #1. This is a problem at the range, since they could easily...

      NRA Pistol Qualification Program

      Is anyone familiar with the NRA's Marksmanship Qualification Program (MQP) for pistols? I'm trying to guide my son through the courses of fire, but it's confusing. A citation from the NRA's website is at the top of the attached pic. I understand it to require the following for the Marksman...

      Mounting Mantis X10 on Glock 44

      I just bought a Mantis X10. The X10 is a tiny accelerometer (I think) with accompanying software that helps you train. I'm trying to mount it on my Glock 44; it doesn't seem to fit at all. The attached pic gives some context. The bottom right shows the X10 attaches fine to my SIRT pistol that...

      Same Kit Cleans .22 and .223?

      I anticipate buying an AR-15 in .223 Wylde. And I just bought a Glock 44 pistol (a .22). Can a cleaning kit for the AR-15 in .223 be used to clean the .22 pistol? They're pretty close to the same diameter. But I'm a newbie in the gun world and don't want to presume much of anything at this point.
