It's Detroit.

I have an LCP, and I would not suggest that you purchase one for her unless she has given one a thorough workout. My wife says get her to TRY a J frame 5 shot 38, she loves hers. Never buy for someone else , it would be like buying them shoes, it is all in the fit. I would like to refute the bolded...

Sounds like you are talking a carry piece. For the daughter either a Glock 19 or a small frame smith and Wesson .38 The little 9's kick bad, the .380's kick more sharply than the 9's, and if she likes a full size Glock, the smaller frame size will make it more concealable. A small revolver is conce...

Correct me if I am wrong but IF the CMP ever receives an allotment of 1911s they will have to ship to an FFL unlike their current m1 program. I believe this is how the law obama signed reads. So really not much different than an online retailer who just got a hold of some cool historical inventory....

Gouger I understand. I do not find cabelas too far off on prices unless are you referring to powder only? They have loaded some loaded ammo on their shelves right now cheaper than fleet farm or Wal-Mart and while it is best to shop around on gun pricing I have found times when they had the best pric...

Like Walmart and Gouger Mountain, Bills Gun shop only had 3 or 4 of the American Tactical 1911s (several models to choose from) for 199 bucks .... So, kind of a bait and switch type deal. We had a dozen at each location. I'm sorry you felt mislead, it wasn't our intention. It is black Friday what d...

Isn't that just a 1911 then?

Really? Putin is your new hero? Now Obama is a wimp but Putin is not someone to admire. And is no one going to point out the trigger finger placement? Such an operator.

Erud, I know it is a gimmick, but it looks cool. If you wish it to be functional enough won't it change?

On a more serious note do you get a wider fov or is the tube diameter the limiting factor in that?

I appreciate the offer. I am thinking 40x is a bit more magnification than I was thinking I needed for pdogs.

High magnification is a Catch-22 in that negatives come with the positives, and to a degree there is a matter of diminshing returns. When you increase magnification, you reduce the exit pupil. As you increase magnification, your light transmission and resolution dimish. Low end/lower quality scopes...

Some good stuff here, you are asking very good questions. Reticles: Ballistic reticles with holdover subtensions and windage stadia marks are very useful for quick adjustment. Depending on the volume you intend to shoot, they are a must have, for high volume shooting. That said, I only find them be...

Kinda thinking between 1k and $1500.

Deciding on a scope for a prairie dog bolt gun. There are some new reticles out there for long range varmint. Seems like these should be considered rather than dialing considering that p dogs could be at any given range. Thoughts on these for this application? Power. Was kinda looking in the 20 - 25...
