Like, a lot.  I haven't blogged much about that but that may change in the future.  In the meantime, I'd like to call out some of my favorites in list form. These are all in my daily carry rotation, some more than others. In the future, I may do some reviews as well.

1. Springfield Armory XD9 (9mm)
2. Glock 19 (9mm)
3. Glock 20SF (10mm)
4. Glock 21 (.45 ACP)
5. CZ P-07

Movies that aren't 'good' by objective standards maybe, but that I love.

A couple here are not for kids, I'll flag those as (Adult) but just about everything else here is recommended.  I also have a few here that include commentary by the MST3K/Rifftrax folks. Those should also be obvious.

For now, this list is strictly Alphabetical. At some point, I may actually do battle and rank these from best to 'worst'.
