    Walmart AR's and mini 14

    The Mini-14 will shoot minute of felon (or coyote) all day long. It is also a bit more PC looking to many folks including some LEOs, especially with the flush magazine in it.

    Savage Axis XP 223 remington

    I looked at the Savage...for the price it is a good rifle but for roughly a hundred more I decided on the Mossberg MVP. It has a great trigger made just like the Savage Accu-Trigger but easier to adjust. Use any AR-15 magazine, is a shorter action so it has a shorter bolt throw and is just plain...

    Pocket Dump...what knife & other "tools" R U carrying today?

    Besides a primary handgun and a BUG I generally carry three knives. Knife one is my social knife, the one I use in front of polite folks. This is most commonly a slipjoint with nice scales. Knife two is a heavier duty knife for cutting chores I prefer not to subject my social knife to...

    Blowguns

    In South America the folks used poison from the small colorful "poison dart frogs" to coat their darts. The result are kinda a slow motion knock out deal. Here in the US we have cane toads..don't know how effective their poison would be.

    Anyone handled the Fox Elishewitz Invader?

    440C steel....For the price of the Fox I think you could do much better with a Spyderco.

    Best HD Semi-Auto Shotgun - Upgradeable Parts

    Given that a shotgun's role in home defense inside the dwelling is as a defensive weapon that should be used from a barricade position such as the far side of the bed away from the door, barrel length really doesn't matter. The Remington 1100 beside my bed has a 26 inch barrel and holds 11...

    School Me.... M1 Carbine

    The Kahr is very well made and given the price of a good quality Mil-Surp today I would give it a lot of consideration. Of course if you can get a decent buy on an original that is in ok shape you can have it made very nice by the folks at Fulton Armory. With Cor Bon DPX ammo the M1 Carbine...

    World's longest shotgun target shot

    I never saw him come close to sweeping the crowd without the gun being broken...there is no way you can shoot skeet and some other clays games without having a broken gun pointed at folks surrounding you. A pump or auto is actually a bit easier as they can be kept muzzle up. But if I see a...

    Which combination do you prefer for SD?

    Those being the choices I had to choose the HK/Glock but the chances of me owning that combo is slim to none and slim left town. Chances of me carrying that combo is on par with me winning the Powerball and I don't buy tickets. Combos I do carry include Glock 19/ Kel Tec PF-9 S&W 2 inch...

    Should I do it/would you do it?

    Sounds like a project gun to me...20 ga fully rifled barrel blanks are available, drilling and tapping shouldn't be an issue...

    I'm a believer

    Skip the MEC Jr and find a MEC 650 or a Grabber...you will be much happier. Of course getting a few buddies together and buying a Dillon SL 900 would be even nicer...
