Anyone here into firearms?

BlackZeda · 09-27-2015, 09:59 PM

I have tried a few but for my H&K P2000 SK I like the Galco Matrix OWB holster. It is a minimalist holster, but it holds the firearm very securely. It just takes a longish t-shirt to conceal.

Rusty the alien wear feels and looks just like my crossbreed did, just a lot cheaper price wise, and I feel like it breaths a little better. I also like the fact that they will send you a new clam shell if you get a new gun free of charge, while my crossbreed became useless to me when I traded the gun away so some one got a $100 holster for free. The only down fall I've seen so far is the wait time from purchase until shipped.

My aliengear took about 2 weeks to be shipped. I have the cloak 3.0. I was surprised. They said turn around time was 4-5 weeks.

I will admit to in a hurry just grabbing my wife XDS in a sticky holster and sliding it into the back of my pants. Actually works awesome.

9mm wins

M4C Newsletter & Larry Vickers: .45 vs 9mm; The debate is over

That leaves .40 S&W out in the cold in my opinion and that trend is seen everywhere now as the .40 has quickly become the black sheep of the whole Ammo debate. The guns are harder to shoot, hold less bullets and are no more effective on the street than 9mm. In fact some have proven to be problematic for many years (Glock 22) when there 9mm counterparts are gold standards for dependability and reliability (Glock 17).

So that's the way I see it; 9mm is in, .40 is out, and .45 if needed. Be safe, keep shooting, LAV out.

Honestly with all the advancements in ammunition it comes down to what you are comfortable with shooting and find a frame that fits your hands, and body if carrying. If you look at the gels of rounds from .380 to .45 that are designed for extreme trauma they all have the power to stop the bad guy. But if you choose to run around with a .45 because some one told you it's the best, but only have the strength to shoot a .380 you aren't going to hit the bad guy and that big round is useless. Just my 2 pennies.

Hey gun packin' friends. What is your daily carry ammo of choice?

I generally use Hornady Critical Duty +p 135 gr.

firulice · 10-09-2015, 09:49 PM

Same for me that's a good round. I either carry those or my own hornady reloads

DEpointfive0 · 10-09-2015, 09:50 PM

Any hollow point. I usually shoot them into a pool to see how they fragment (I'm dead serious)
