Great thread, and timely for me. In the last year I developed what was misdiagnosed as anxiety, and turns out to be "tension tremors" in my hands. I'm still awaiting an appointment to be certain it...

With the Makarov I carry one (because I only have one extra), with the 1911 I carry two on the belt. I find it helps balance out the pistol a bit, and it's nice to have Plan B so close at hand. I...

I've had a few incidents happen, mostly road rage. I was lucky that I was able to manage them without actively involving a firearm although during a couple of them it was in my hand, in my lap. Next...

I've used that kind of rig a lot and I liked it - but I was on foot and don't know how it'd work bouncing around on an ATV. Might work just fine.

I'm looking for a new warm-weather CCW gun, I have a 1911 and a P3AT I carry now, and I'd like something in the middle in weight, size and power but I haven't made up my mind. Maybe a Glock 33 Gen 4,...

I rub some dirt on it and walk it off. Just kidding!

Thanks for the post, Jake.

1 - I have 2 A&G belts, a brown and a black. The brown one is larger to give me room to wear lined jeans and heavier tucked shirts in winter ... however, it's a good...

Slippery shirts and sticky holsters

I found a couple of UnderArmour t-shirts (not the super-tight ones) and found that I love them for summer. Tennessee's not as damp as where I was in Virginia, but still it's nice to finally find a...

Wise decision, just be aware that most of us have a box/drawer full of really nice holsters that don't work for us as well as we'd hoped. Even at that, you stand a much better chance of getting the...
