Reader Comments of the Week
“S&W could probably expand their market on this one if they would just include ambidextrous charging handle and safety. I am sorry but the ambidextrous safety on AR style firearms, is a no-brainer, to include us “correct” handed people. Ironically, being left-eye dominant, I have found the 10/22 with a few left-hand friendly accessaries is still hard to beat. FYI: For anyone having magazine related issues, like FTF, I suggest checking out the GLOCK video on how to properly load the G-44 .22LR magazines to avoid feeding issues. I have since learned the Glock video seems to pertain to other manufactures of .22LR semi-auto magazines as well. So if you are having Failure To Feed issues on your favorite .22, give the Glock G-44 magazine video a peek. Keep that TOP or FIRST round, from NOSE-diving.”

“I live in South Louisiana. To say it is hot down here is an understatement. I prefer an IWB or high rise belt holster, but since putting on mucho weight and inches with retirement and the pandemic I can no longer carry in my waistband. Now days I now carry in a shoulder rig. I found the way to carry down here is a T-shirt with the rig over it and a lightweight, oversized (I wear XL so will buy XXL), button-down ‘fishing’ shirt. These cover well and are worn unbuttoned, but I have to button a couple of buttons on windy days. I am working pn losing weight so that I can go back to my waist band holsters, but I do appreciate the convenience and security of the shoulder holster. I have Armadillo Holsters shoulder rigs and find them well made at a decent price. I believe they are a ‘home’ based business and last time I checked they do not have a phone number contact but I have had not issues with them. I recently ordered a holster from Craft Holsters. It was a belt holster for my Taurus 692 3″ but will be ordering their shoulder rig for my G40 MOS. I like the quality I’ve seen from their work so far.”

“Looks like Heritage is going to get more of my money! While not as quiet as an auto, a suppressor will reduce sound some. And I will finally buy an optic for a handgun.”
– FARMPLINKER, in response to Cowboy Tactical: Heritage Manufacturing’s Most Useful Revolver
