I got to talk with R. Lee Ermey at the Glock station at the range day for media this year. He was friendly and glad to share his thoughts with me. He has firm convictions about home defense and the Right to Carry, just like my father, Robert Boatman. I’m sure most of us share [...]

Eric over at www.GlockTalk.com is running another incredible fund-raising raffle.  The site, which is the home of just about every GLOCK-shooter on earth is a great place to hang out.  It takes money to keep the site up and Eric pays the bills by setting up great raffles.  Buy some tickets quick though, sales end [...]

I’ve bought both guns and ammo off Craigslist before, but the listings were disguised to avoid flagging by describing the items as ‘boom sticks’ or ‘lead projectiles’ or ‘recreational machinery,’ or some such terminology.  Such subterfuge is not necessary at Backpage.com.  They have no prohibitions against guns and associated equipment.  Check them out and go [...]

Hey, just wanted to thank you for answering my previous question awhile back, and for having such a well done website- I tend to drop by and read the latest entries every week or so, so well done! I have a quick question for you that I’m hoping you can answer for me, I know [...]

Mr. Boatman,    Just a few questions for you about upkeep for my Glock 26.  In reading the factory manual it points out cleaning and lubing procedures but fails to give any info as to the actual brands or products they recommend. Since the only solvent I have heard of is (I think) called Hopps [...]

Gabe’s New idea on the perfect combat sidearm. Copyright Gabe Suarez There is always a great temptation to minimize everything.  This is usually followed by a rationalization of what you need.  You will hear the drone, “All you need is this”, or “all you need is that”.   Truly, the only things you need are [...]
