Polymer Handgun Ammunition?

There are polymer handguns so why not ammo?  According to one European company, this sounds like a valid question. The Company plans on marketing these cartridges soon and possibly bring them over to the States next year.  When asked, they don’t seem worried about potential heat issues either.  Their primary benefit is obviously price when compared to the only two other options.  Personally, I’ll stick to what works best…Brass.

ConcealThis Review: Recluse Solo Pocket Holster

The pocket holster typically serves two main purposes.  It is designed not only allow the gun to “print” less in your pocket, but also designed to keep that pistol always at the proper angle to ensure a quick draw when needed. However, while there are many other benefits, there is one other and very important feature that a majority honestly fail to offer.  That pistol must be drawn from your pocket with ease, regardless of attire.  It must be drawn with holster remaining in your pocket. With the exception of the latest holster previously reviewed here that somewhat does remedy this, I have found all others are just simply not capable of providing all three very critical features that I personally think all should seriously focus on before choosing to purchase one.  That’s where the Recluse holster comes in and why I chose to take the time to review it.  I typically do not like custom holsters but this was certainly an exception. For those who pocket carry, it is one that does deserve a very serious look and is what I will do in this latest article.

Packaging & Contents

The holster comes well packaged and upon opening, you’ll be greeted with a short but informational booklet every responsible gun owner should read again and again.  Unlike most custom holsters I have received in the past, it is shipped in professional packaging detailing its main features, as well as its supported handgun.

Top 5 Videos of Women Shooting Guns

Ahh, there’s something about women and guns.  I don’t know, it just turns me on.  I respect them highly.  However, it is not often that you see women really firing a gun like a pro and even more rare to find them shooting way beyond your own capabilities.  Gun Nuts Media has posted five videos that are certainly worth your time.  These are true professionals.  Heck, I was shocked to find that my favorite video (above) is actually not a “woman” per say, but a young girl at the age of only 15!  That is one impressive video to watch.  I also really want that sweet 1911 she is shooting!  In fact, can anyone help me identify that blue skeletonized trigger on that pistol?  It appears to be anodized aluminum in a unique blue color.

Check all five out here…
