The only obviously missing aspect is some backpack for carrying useful sundries.

The difference between the two is entirely in favor of the newer iteration:

  1. Coated locking block and barrel make grease unnecessary.
  2. Wooden grips are nicer than the old plastic ones.
  3. List price is lower ($977 vs. $1100+ for the Boberg pistol)

Looks like a win to me. Fully supported barrel that’s long for the slide, great accuracy, smooth trigger and very mild recoil, thanks to the rotary breech. And 7+1 capacity in a 6+1 grip size. 

It does require properly crimped ammunition. Fortunately, pretty much all defensive ammo and about half of the practice ball are crimped. Think of that as buying high octane gas for a race car.

The date went well, though they disagreed on a few things: he carried, she thought all guns should be banned.  They decided to meet again.

“I’ll make dinner Friday night. Come over around 6pm,” he said “And be sure to arrive unarmed.”

She looked at him and said: “That’s a really creepy thing to say!”

“Why, aren’t you already against weapons? Why is me asking you to be unarmed for an evening creepy, while you wanting me to be unarmed for a lifetime isn’t?”

“Hmmmm….”

That got her to thinking. Several years, a wedding and two kids later, she carries daily.


The ethical imperative for small arms in private hands: new on GAT Daily

One and a half seconds

A second and a half from rest to first shot is considered a reasonably quick draw from concealment. Two is a bit slow. How slow is waiting for cops to show up after either bystander call them or you — if you survive an attack in any shape to call them and still have your cell phone…or wait, the muggers took it…so after you find somebody to call for you?

Pistol deployment isn’t rocket science. It can be learned quicker than any other kind of  martial art. Carrying a handgun is no harder than carrying a cell phone — pistols are usually slightly heavier but also less fragile.

People who had been attacked, beaten, raped or robbed when defenseless by choice or by law often have PTSD. I have yet to see emotional regret or flashbacks in a person who successfully rebuffed a criminal attack with gunfire or other means. Every one of them viewed past experience with attempted victimization as resolved in a satisfactory manner. By contrast, people who had been and remain disarmed by law, usually relive the past as part of the worry about similar threats in the future.
