For me, it's my Kahr CW9. It came highly recommended and the size is great although it could use more capacity. Unfortunately, I really don't like shooting it. The stupid-long pull of the trigger combined with the curved trigger face makes for a non-fun shooting experience. I replaced the...

The answer to the question asked is my Glock 19. It is the KISS and Goldilocks of guns. Simple and reliable, big enough to have adequate capacity but small and light enough that it can easily be concealed. That said, the gun I carry the most is my LCP Max as it just disappears yet still carries...

That looks like a really well done restoration. I'm not a fan of how so many people put giant tires and lifts on old Broncos. Yours looks like the perfect mix of modernization while maintaining the classic style.

I thought I had the dubious distinction of being the only shark, erm, lawyer on here. Your client is more fun than my ER docs though. At least I probably shoot better than you since I was a Jarhead before I went to law school. I'm very curious how one earns the honor of being the FE GC. I'm...

Inspired by this thread, I decided to look into my old Seiko. For background, my first job after getting out of the Marines was a San Diego Diver's Supply. I'd been certified for years and was getting back into diving so the job, and the employee discount, made perfect sense. I quickly...

If you know me, you know which I am...

I don't have any sort of daily discipline other than I usually wake up and take a shit. Taking notes here...

I will check them out. The MFT looks a lot like the DeSantis I have.

Your article was one of the reasons I got mine, so thank you! I have two IWB holsters for it, a kydex one from DeSantis and a leather one from 1791. While I generally prefer kydex holsters, the DeSantis one sits a little too high. The 1791 holster is very secure and very comfortable. That's the...

During the week I carry a Staccato HD P4 because I carry it in my professional backpack so the weight doesn't matter. On the weekend I carry either a G19 with a Faxon barrel and Holosun dot Or I carry a Ruger LCP Max with a spare mag in a Neomag holder. I either carry it in my pocket in a...

True story: Was at the Naval Academy and we had a big party to celebrate completing Plebe year. I got wasted pretty early and hooked up with a local girl in the basement of the house. Being drunk, I didn't think to use a condom. I don't really remember much about the rest of the party. The next...

A book that inspired me to get outside and explore my local deserts and mountains was "The Lonesome Gods" by Louis L'Amour. In terms of my time in the military, I cannot say enough about Tom Clancy's books and "Fields of Fire" by James Webb. I'm struggling to think of any book that shaped my...

So it doesn't show up until I hit the Reply button, but now I can see it. Weird. Nice Seiko! I have one just like it except with a metal band. I need to get it serviced...

It's not a Tacoma, but my Colorado is the same size. It's my daily driver, my vacation, and I still use it for truck stuff too. I only went with a 2" lift and 32" tires. The Go Fast Camper has been a game-changer for hunting and camping. Get one.

When I need a rifle that I know is going to shoot lights out at 500 yards or less, the .308 is my go to. My .308 was the first bolt action rifle I bought as an adult and I still have it. My dad has the same rifle and we have developed perfect hand-loads for each rifle. It seems that every other...
