High Capacity Magazines



Lets talk about bulk, not bulk ammo, I mean bulk firepower. I see high capacity magazines everywhere: FPS Russia videos, bank robberies, shooting ranges, TV shows, and in the news. So why are they so special? Because sometimes more is not less, more is MORE!!! Sometimes good things come in bigger packages. Recently, I have even seen a double-drum magazine for Glock handguns, which is a must if you own a Glock. I think the reason many people view high cap magazines as evil, is because of the recent incident in Tuscon where the mentally unstable young man shot a Congresswoman with a high cap Glock. At the end of the day, I'm sure most of us gun nuts will agree: It's great to have some variety when you are out shooting, like having a banana clip for your .22 or a 10 round clip on your 12 gauge. Makes things more interesting.

Whats your favorite caliber?

.40 S&w and 9mm Luger

With so many calibers on the market, what is the right choice these days? Whether you are looking for self-protection, target shooting, or a duty weapon, the most common answer would be the Smith and Wesson .40 caliber. Most law enforcement agencies around the world use this as their standard caliber today. However, a more cost effecient caliber in the modern days of high ammunition cost is the 9mm round. Contrary to what you think, this round is not wimpy at all. It carries more velocity than the S&W .40 caliber, just with a slightly lower mass of projectile, and fewer grains. Long story short, it will still take down an intruder, and will cost you less money to train on at the range. My advice if your looking for a new caliber handgun? Go with a 9mm Glock.
