Just a reminder if you’re a USPSA member, voting opened today for Area 4 Director to replace Mel. Alex Acosta from Austin Practical Shooters Club (APSC) is one of three running for the spot and IMO would be a great choice.
Check your email and vote. More than ever, getting the board turned around is important right now!
Recently did tactical carbine 1 with tactical fitness austin. Was my first time doing any firearms training. Curious for your experience and if there are any other companies, instructors, and specific courses you would recommend?
I'm primarily looking for carbine, pistol, and medical. Not interested in competition shooting or super basic courses. I spend a few minutes each day dry firing both rifle and handgun already, and have a combined 20-30k rounds over the past ~12 years shooting.
This is probably a long shot, but have any of y’all seen any light-load wadcutter rounds for sale locally?
The usual suspects (Academy, Cabela’s) seem to only have it as special order, but I was hoping to get my hands on some in the next couple days for a range trip…
u/sportsmansfinest are you all getting any of the 2024 Rotex or SRBS cans in?
Trying to find some locally to look at and hold before making a purchase.

I’m going to be down in Austin area a lot the next couple of summers for work. Might be bringing my suppressed SBRs with me sometimes. Wanted to know the best ranges in the area (will be just south of Austin).
Also figured I’d ask what shop would carry the Sig MPX K (not copperhead) for sale or may B&T stuff and suppressors. I’ve been looking for an MPX for a while, but nobody local has anything, so I figure I’d browse the gun shops down there over the summer.
I am a Texas resident.
I'm actually happy it hasn't, although it is a very fuddy range having access to a 300 yrd rifle range is still very valuable
Hey y'all. We just restocked our selection of Manners stocks. Sharing in case anyone is looking. We have tactical, hunting, and competition models all back in stock - https://sportsmansfinest.com/manners-composite-stocks/
Thanks.
I'm not looking to rent one at a range (yet, anyway), I just want to get a feel for the grip angle & point of aim. I live South but I'm willing to drive a bit. I appreciate the help.
Edit: I have shot a P-10F, but this gun would actually be a nightstand gun for my GF when she moves in a couple of months.
She liked the feel of the 365XL grip, but she won't be carrying, so I'm looking for something larger that I can throw a light on for her.
She liked the ergos of the PSA Dagger, but I'm not sure if that's a proven enough platform to trust her life with 10/10 times. It definitely wouldn't be my first choice, even though I've never personally had problems with PSAs.
She has no shooting experience, but has expressed a lot of desire to learn, so we will be making regular range trips so she can get a feel for some different platforms. I'm a big fan of my SP-01 with a TLR-1, but that was a bit heavy for her and I think striker fire would be more accommodating.
The G19 and P-01 were a little large for her to get a solid grip on.
Hey folks any vendors here in austin carry grips for l frames? I wanted to grip them in person before buying.
Hey yall, im flying into Austin next month from Alaska, and want to buy some ammo to save a little money. Any good shops down there to check out?
Hi all. I want try out shooting for the first time for my birthday this week. I've never held a gun before. How do I get started? Where do I go fire some rounds? Thanks!

Hello everyone. Looking at moving to either Austin or DFW. Concerned about Austin being more liberal and how it could affect gun laws. I know here in CO where I'm at now they have stricter mag capacity laws and it limits what you can buy. Is Austin similar or is it still Texas?
Thank you!
Anyone know if they a ccw policy or metal detectors on the way in? This would be on body carry iwb.
I've checked out a few pawn shops, but I just haven't had any luck. Ya'll see any out there lately?
I need to get some real dope on my rifle and I do not own a chronograph. I would like to meet out at copperhead creek and shoot using your chrono. I'd be happy to toss you some money/ammo or take us out to eat after. My schedule is pretty open, so just let me know what would work for you.
I’m going for my first time tomorrow and have never done any thing like this. Just been going to The Range like twice a month. How is it? Any advice?
I’m was recently in a USCCA event here - and can’t believe the questions that some of the “licensed” CHL holders are asking and the comments. Q: Bad guy is outside the car and has a bat, yelling at you. What do you do?
A: 3 CHL holders - shoot through the windshield. Lots of laughs…😡
Y’all this is the freaking reason they want to put more laws & restrictions.
Damn.
