    Tips on taking great gun pictures!

    I just broke nearly all the rules the original poster suggested 12 years ago. This was a quick shot I took outside. While I did use a prime lens, I hand held the camera, used auto focus, didn't use a tripod, timer or cable release, used a very shallow f1.2 depth of field to blur the background...

    What .45 ACP do you conceal carry most often?

    Sig Sauer P220 Stainless Elite Carry (.45ACP). I carry a Sig Sauer P229 Legion Compact (9mm) more often. It seems lighter but not by that much.

    5 guns every American should own

    After this I'm not sure if I can even purchase the AR15 I have been waiting to find in stock. https://www.opb.org/article/2022/03/23/inslee-signs-gun-bills-ban-on-sale-of-high-capacity-magazines/ I suppose I can still pick up a 357 revolver. I have wanted one since I only have a .44 I have a...

    Ruger Super Blackhawk, 3 Screw .44

    Ruger Super Blackhawk, 3 Screw .44, 1969, no transfer bar. I cloned out the last few digits of the serial number and decided to clone out the bar from the stand that goes in the barrel so it is not actually floating in space.

    Old style Super Blackhawk .44 grips?

    SATCOM, I received the grips and installed them last night. They look great and fit fantastic. I can't thank you enough for your generosity.

    Old style Super Blackhawk .44 grips?

    If I am reading correctly, file the grip on the top front edge rather than enlarge the guide or alignment post hole? The new grip is slightly larger in length and depth. Thank you.

    Old style Super Blackhawk .44 grips?

    Unfortunately the new grips don’t quite fit. The two alignment pegs on the grip frame, or whatever they are called, are very slightly off and the grips won’t go on. I suppose I could enlarge the alignment holes on the grips if there wouldn’t be any concern the grip would move once installed.

    Old style Super Blackhawk .44 grips?

    Yes, instruction is definitely in order. I choose not to have guns in the house while my kids where still around, even to the point of keeping my hunting rifle at my Dad’s in his gun safe. My kids’ are out of the house and now is a great time for my son and me to take some gun safety and...

    Old style Super Blackhawk .44 grips?

    I'll look around for some stock grips and put an ad in if can't find any. My research is pointing to Hogue as a reasonable after market grip? Dragoon trigger guard; I am learning all kinds of things as I research my new, old gun. I read in your signature you are a scuba instructor. I am 1...
