What Is A Drill? Drills are a method of repeating something over and over until you can’t screw it up. Courses of fire are timed scenarios that are designed to test our skills and diagnose what we need to work on. If there is one thing that I have learned from my time using guns, professionally or otherwise, […]
If your hackles went up and you assumed a war footing when you read the title of this article, you’re not alone. The debate between projectile sizes has been raging since Cain was deciding on whether to use a small rock or a big rock to kill Abel (if, in fact, he used a stone […]
The Shot Indicating Resetting Trigger (SIRT) Training Pistol from Next Level Training let’s you train the basics of trigger control, grip, sight picture and sight alignment in perfect safety. There is a ton of training for firearms that can be done without a single round fired. Dry fire training is something that every serious shooter […]
I had a student write in today asking about what to do since his pinkie finger hangs off of the bottom of the grip of his pistol. This is a very common issue…either for people shooting small pistols or shooters with big hands. Here’s an example…this is what my grip looks like with a standard […]
History repeats itself…sadly and ignorantly. In the last few days, an ill-informed propagandist from MSNBC said that someone with a pistol doesn’t have a chance against a bad guy with a rifle because rifle bullets travel 3x faster. And then a US Senator said that getting shot by a pistol was no more effective than […]
There are some trips to the range that I remember very clearly… A decade or so ago, I bought an H&K USPc. I immediately took it to the range, had the sights swapped out, and took it onto the range for a test fire. The darn thing shot low. I took it back to the gunsmith […]
On February 24 CNN law enforcement analyst Tom Fuentes asked the question, “For a woman, where are you going to hide that gun during the day?” He continued with another question, “If you wear a dress, if you wear a skirt, are you going to have to wear a jacket everyday with a belt and […]
James Bond likes the CZ 82. Okay, so Bond’s signature firearm was a Walther PPK, and not the CZ, but at my first sight of the Czech military pistol, I couldn’t help but to recall the hero’s famous blued compact. The Walther’s design predates the 82, and its Russian predecessor, the Makarov, by many years […]
It has been a crazy few months in the firearms industry…The events that are causing all of this craziness are quite sad, but the end result of MILLIONS of additional people deciding to take responsibility for their own safety should be encouraging and heartwarming. It’s great that more people have guns. And it’s great that […]
My name is Joe Chambers. I own a custom 1911 pistol shop in Nebraska called Chambers Custom LLc. (CCP). I’ve been building 1911 style pistols for a decade now, which really isn’t long if you love what you do, and I certainly do love building guns! I’ve been very blessed to have had my guns […]
