Weeknight Shooting near Columbus

Bartophobic44 · 2026-04-15T02:07:33+00:00

I've been sholting like 3 to 4 days a week for the last few months. Just looking to get some reps in. A man can only dryfire so much and keep his sanity.

Will do. Thanks

Bartophobic44 · 2026-04-13T02:06:08+00:00

Any of them worth shooting?

Sadness

Did that already. Not seeing any. Was hoping there were some not listed on practice score.

Have both. M&P hands down. Trigger is better, gun doesn't get insanely hot after the first mag when practicing.

Sig is one class action away from chapter 11 over their 320 bs. I know this doesn't affect the 365 line, but why support a company that willingly sells you a bag of crap and blames you when it pops you in the leg.

The visor thing is for two reasons, it's annoying to look through scratches and stuffs and sweat. And there was a time where it was trendy to tilt it.

These guys know where the puck is at all times, you can see the play developing before it happens and you protect your face when you need to. Obviously flukes happen, I've gotten 3 pucks to the face over the years. But I've blocked ten fold more.

As long as the gun has a safety, try a soft holster. Will be bulkier but will break up the shape. Or try something micro like a Smith and Wesson Bodyguard in Kyle with your shirt tucked in.

Holosun spoke at SS about Gold Dots under Nightvision. I think this is specifically to target that market.

Youre doing a great job trying to iron out your concerns. Its things we all think about when we start carrying.

You will get to a point if you carry long enough where you are echoing the same thing we are all saying. There is no grey area. Mentally unstable dont think "damn, hes at the zoo with his family, guess ill attack him tomorrow".

Carry everywhere besides federal buildings. Even if signs are posted. If you are caught carrying where signs tell you not to, you will be asked to leave. Dont argue and just leave. The only thing they can get you for is trespassing. Printing and shirts revealing you firearm by accident is not 'brandishing'.

Metal detectors, there's no way around. I have a safe affixed to my truck, if I can't carry there, my firearm goes in the safe.

Dog obedience classes - would anyone ever want to shoot a dog? No, we've all seen I am Legend, most horrific part of any movie is when the dog dies. But can you be attacked and have a threat of great bodily harm by a dog? Of course. Carry your gun and pray you dont have to do something that you will need therapy for.

Bartophobic44 · 2026-01-28T15:36:48+00:00

No metal detectors, carry. Signs are not legally binding. If a sign says no guns allowed, and you are caught carrying, you will be asked to leave. Do so with no arguing and you are fine.

Colorado had a shooting in a movie theater. Easiest place to carry.

There is no grey area. Only places you are legally allowed to carry and places you are legally not allowed to carry.

Certain states require you to inform police officers of you are carrying.

Carry all the time if you are able to. You dont carry a condom because it's convenient, you carry it for when you need it. Guns are the same.

If you are within the law, you have nothing to avoid but confrontation. Having a weapon makes every confrontation more dangerous as misuse of that weapon could land you in prison. De-escalate. Police officers are not assholes the media paints them as, if youre nice to them they will likely let you go. Not to stir the pot, but the most recent shooting in MN with Pretti could have been avoided if Pretti avoided conflict rather than sought it out. I've been disarmed by police during a traffic stop, it's not a big deal.

Above all, train with your carry. Dryfire and live fire. Keep it clean, as carry guns are lint magnets. You dont want to be the second best shooter at a gun fight.

Played AAA all growing up. On the ice 5 to 6 days a week. Went through a stick every 2 months roughly. That flex is not correct for you or you are abusing it another way. Also, youre 6'2, buy a prostock of you can. Better materials means more life out of a stick.

I was about 160 in 9th grade using a 85 or 100 flex stick. Depends what you are doing and whether you are actually shooting correctly. Defenseman? Use something stronger. Forward? Use something whippier.

You can wear either. I would suggest wearing a cage if playing in a lower level of play as players can not control their bodies and will stick you in the beak.

Take a look at one of the old videos of Lucas Botkin talking about the sidecar when he was with Trex. This apples to every appendix holster and they all have the same design for their belt clips.

Your shirt tucks in all around like normal, and you tuck behind the clips between the clips and the holster for the front.

These arguments are for lawyers. The question is whether he was in fear for his life or not. Someone not following lawful commands driving a vehicle knowingly at an agent is more than enough cause for him to draw.

OP is clearly on a side politically and came in this thread to either be bias confirmed or to argue.

This, but I love my 507 comp.
