 Joined a new outdoor range two weeks ago, but thanks to mother nature have only had one opportunity to use it.  The range is only 3.5 miles from my house so I will probably be using it a couple of times a week.  Just got a fresh supply of reloading components in so I should be able to keep my ammo supplies sufficient.  

As you can see from the attached pics the road conditions are less than desirable.  Shouldn't have a problem getting to and from the range, having both a Subaru 2025 OBW and a 2004 Jeep Wrangler.  It's just so dame cold out there.  It's going down to the low single digits tonight and the winds are brutal.  Considering all the variables not the best conditions to get in some serious range time.  

On my next visit I will take some pics and post them.  For now, Stay warm, and STAY SAFE! 




My next post will have to do with updated EDC options!

Hi everyone, first Happy New Year!

Hopefully I will be back posting at least once a week.  Just want to reach out and give a high five ✋ to everyone and give a good friend of mine an acknowledgement for the absolutely amazing job he does on the custom kydex products he makes.  

His name is Pete Cannella and he makes some amazing holster at a very reasonable price.  He is a local guy and works from his workshop in Norwood, Del County, Pa.  The name of his company is ARMOR GUARD HOLSTERS LLC. Phone # (267) 588-4508) Pete can construct a holster for just about any popular handgun model out there for whatever way you choose to carry.  He also does Mag pouches, knife sheaths or anything you would need to carry on your person. 

Below please find a couple of pics of holsters he made up for my Glock 19 and 17 with red dot optics and high visible Dawson Precision suppressor sights.

If you're looking for a really good high-quality holster, give Pete a call.
