For the record

Posted on December 28, 2010 by ExurbanKev

I don’t think the 1911 sucks, but on the other hand, I don’t think it’s the Ultimate Defensive Handgun, either. I don’t own one right now, but an Armscor Tactical is on my list for this year so I can … Continue reading →

Scatter-brained

Posted on December 24, 2010 by ExurbanKev

Sixth Report

Posted on December 21, 2010 by ExurbanKev

Psssst, hey, buddy wanna buy a gun?

Posted on December 20, 2010 by ExurbanKev

Posted on December 19, 2010 by ExurbanKev

Two wrongs make a right

Posted on December 15, 2010 by ExurbanKev

I’ve had a Sccy CPX-1 for a while now and it’s been a bit of a problem child for me. I bought it as my first CCW gun, and I thought it was quite a good buy. Price at around … Continue reading →
