    I killed my gun belt!

    RIP Galco belt.:rolleyes: In an effort to 'revive' the belt's stiffness, I took the advice of a few people and stuck it in 190 degree water for about a minute. Lo and behold, out came this pathetic, shrunken piece of leather all twisted and gnarled like a piece of beef jerkey. It was even...

    Home security sticker needed

    I've decided after watching all those silly Brinks commercials that I want to put one of their stickers on my converted Saiga. Anyone got an extra?:D

    Taurus Model 63

    I saw this 22 at Gander Mountain yesterday. First time I'd ever seen one and it really piqued my interest. Initially looks like a lever action with really nice blueing but rounds are fed through the stock after you take out a long tube. It was used and they wanted $199 for it. I can't get...

    Browsing the PETA site...

    I know, they're loony. But I like to keep tabs of what the 'other' side is doing. http://blog.peta.org/archives/2008/11/keep_kids_away.php http://blog.peta.org/archives/2008/11/hunting_contrib.php I especially found Newkirk's rat reference in another blog to be quite entertaining...

    CZ carbine scope mount question

    Can anyone tell me if this... http://www.kalinkaoptics.com/detail.aspx?ID=520 ...will fit on my carbine? I measured the outside dovetail edge at 15mm. The max size of the mount is 13. I tried emailing the company, no reply yet. I'd like to put a larger red dot on it.

    Knob Creek question

    I've been setting off some Tannerite at my local range for 3+ years. Does Knob Creek allow it during normal range days or just paper only? :confused: I'll be moving to a town about 30 minuted from the range.

    Appreciating my Saiga even more

    Took it to the range again today. So far it's had about 500 rounds through it, maybe more. I haven't cleaned it yet. We set up a large steel excavator tooth at 80 yards and I stood shooting at it for a couple mags. Ping...ping...ping...I swear it was hitting the sucker more than missing...

    Friend bought a new P22, thoughts.

    It's the shorter model with the S&W logo and the carbon fiber finish. 'B' code mag if that makes a difference. We both heard about jamming problems so I bought some MiniMags for it and we put a few magazines through. Not one issue. He then broke out the Thunderbolts :barf::p and to my...

    Need help with legitimate scenerio

    We have occasional armed robberies around here. But they're 'polite' in a way, the BG simply presents a firearm or threat of one, takes the money and leaves. No violence ensues. BG is caught a few hours later usually. So, if I'm stuck in a convenience store or bank lobby with a 'polite'...

    Old J-frame end shake

    I'd like to get the end shake corrected on my old 1952 model 36. Saw the washers for sale, but not sure how to take the crane/cylinder apart to install it.

    Curious...357 vs 7.62x39

    Just wondering. What is the velocity of a hot 357 out of an 18" barrel? As the x39 clocks around 2300fps using the same weight, I'm guessing they're pretty close...within 300fps?

    Ordered my CompTac paddle holster

    Just placed it last night, today I got a message saying it was shipped out. I can't wait, my Sig 220 will have a new home soon. A report will follow soon as I get it.

    Need facts about the AHSA

    Discussion going on at another board I belong to, mostly dominated by left-wing types. A guy pointed out the AHSA is endorsing Obama, I'm trying to glean stats on the organization...and don't need biases put out by the NRA. So if anyone could help out I'd appreciate it. Did a search, came...

    CompTac or BladeTech for Sig 220?

    I'm frankly getting pretty tired of my SERPA as it sticks out so far. Unless I wear a decent sized coat, it just becomes painfully obvious I'm carrying. Looking for a GOOD OWB kydex holster that fits very close to the body and doesn't move around.

    Lead poisoning question

    Friend of mine states you can't absorb lead through the skin just by handling raw lead, IE bullets or weights. True/false? Anything to back that up?
