    Default Whats the one thing you'd pay for?

    I'm always curious about the next big idea to make shooting more pleasurable.
    As far as the sport of shooting is concerned, what's the one "accessory" that you feel would make life so much easier but either doesn't exist or is so rare it's never available?
    I was at the range today shooting my Buckmark and after loading the mags 20 times each I got a blister on my thumb that looks like a second head!
    My big idea would be a speedloader for semi auto magazines.

    Aw, come on. It was Saigon, 1970. We'd been out in the boonies for a month and she was really pretty and.....

    OOPS! I misunderstood....

    Yeah, a speedloader sounds like a great idea.

    May not be a "speedloader" exactly, but my Ruger P95 came with this little bent piece of sheetmetal that helps a ton when loading many magazines at a time.

    This thing:


    I guess it doesnt really speed up the loading of magazines persay, but it definitely helps with new magazines that have really stiff new springs. It also helps alot when loading alot of magazines at once.

    Pennsyplinker posted about a .22 mag loader he just got.

    There are some out there.

    always thought a bio-metric retention holster would be a good idea.

    I've always thought the sight scopes for semi auto pistols was a cool idea.
    But the crimson trace grip lasers is inqenuity at it's finest.

    How about sights that compensate for the wind!

    This would only be a good idea if they could somehow make the ability to recognize you and you only, be done within a fraction of a second. Somehow, i just dont see that happening. Furthermore, adding that extra bit of time in order to draw is just that much less time you have to defend yourself.

    I stick with retention training.

    That would be pretty cool. I still prefer a Crimson Trace laser though, i prefer my sight to literally be ON the target.

    How about this , I haven't seen this listed yet ,
    just go with the basics , train yourself to see !!!!

    A few years ago in a local gunshop a salesman
    tried to sell me a pistol with a laser sight on it
    telling me how great it was , then I asked him ,
    " if you don't bead you're target right off the
    bat does it not give away your position ? "

    Left him stumbling with an answer , just a thought !
