The “Plan B”
Written by: Greg Ellifritz Do you own a Smith and Wesson M&P Shield? I do and I really like the gun. It’s been my go-to pistol whenever I’ve wanted to carry something a little smaller and lighter than my Glock 19. I have no complaints about the pistol. The only thing I don’t […]

Comments on TDI’s “Snubby Revolver” Class
Even though you “tactical types” don’t like to admit it, there are a lot of folks who carry small-framed revolvers for self protection.
