 Currently reworking my blog

As with all things in life, change comes with age, and with age your interests shift and what was once a small interest develops larger.

If poor grammar or punctuation annoys you, just know that I refuse to use ChatGPT or any of those the bullshit AI writing programs. So, disclaimer... fuck off.

Reloading 101 - Part 1, Intro & Tooling: Presses I figured with the wealth of knowledge that I have gathered from various places that I would compile it all in one spot to help others who are on this new venture. The chances of someone reading this small upstart blog? Probably none, but if it helps one person, then my time wouldn't feel completely useless. I'll start with this - With anything, especially when it comes to the world of firearms, two things hold true. The quote "Buy once, cry once" and buying the best and highest priced stuff won't always give you the best results. Reloading is a fantastic extension to the firearms/gun hobby, but it requires a good deal of money to get tooled up. I can confidently say that easily made back my investment 100 times over since. It is also very therapeutic and relaxing.  Organizational skills If you aren't an organized person, you definitely should work on this if you intend to reload. Being organized is ...

Disclaimer: This is all informational and for educational purposes only. Only modify your firearm if you are an experienced gunsmith and at your own risk.  Where to start with the ongoing saga of the P320? The Sig Sauer P320 was a cutting-edge design when it was released, offering consumers the ability to interchange grip modules for an unparalleled level of pistol customization. Interestingly, this innovative design didn’t originate as the P320. It was first introduced as the P250 platform — Sig's original modular pistol. The major difference between the two platforms is that the P250 was a hammer-fired, double-action-only (DAO) pistol.

Many believe this foundational decision may be at the root of some of the platform’s ongoing issues. In contrast, the P365 — another modular pistol from Sig — was designed from scratch. Although it uses the same modular concep...

The Poorman's Staccato - Part 1

I’ve always wanted a Staccato for as long as I can remember—but honestly, who hasn’t? Any gun enthusiast dreams of owning a 2011-pattern pistol, especially a high-end model like a Staccato or Cosaint Arms. Then you’ve got the mid-tier options like the Springfield Prodigy and OA Defense, and rounding out the budget category is the Girsan—or is it? There’s been a lot of hate and stigma attached to Turkish-made firearms. In my experience, most of it comes from people who’ve never actually handled or fired one and are just repeating what they’ve heard. Unfortunately, opinions are like assholes—everyone’s got one. I think the Girsan is a great entry-level option for anyone looking to get into the 2011 platform. For me, it was a no-brainer, especially since this would be my first time modifying one. A lot of people have asked me, “Why not just save up for a Staccato or Cosaint Arms?” But where’s the fun in that—especially for someone like me, an amateur gunsmith who enjoys the process. Sure,...
