Another R1 (30-06) owner chiming in..... Have not shot it much; maybe 50-75 rounds. Accuracy was between 1-1.5 inches with factory and about an inch with reloads (165 gr). My gun hates reloads, will not put them into battery. Likely rectified with small bases dies...? All that said, I like the...

Same reason why folks find collectability in Pre-64 Winchester 94s; are they any better than Mirouku 94s? To each their own...

That is fancy shooting for most folks, let alone a five year. Awesome

I always wanted one when I youngster. I got a little older and bought the BK9 from Ka Bar. Way too big to really use, in my opinion. Maybe the Ka Bar iteration of the crewman is just as good as Camillus? I presume the spine is quite thick on both makes.

My Daddy and I got a Savage 99 (circa 1953) in .300 Savage and a Remington 673 in .308 for $600 total. Daddy also did some horsetrading with the boy on autobody work and got a 45-Remington 1187 with a smooth bore and a cantilever rifled barrel in 20 bore. Before that an old family friend gifted...

I have both, use the Affinity and haven't shot the CZ. Both are nice but I prefer the Franchi's feel. You won't go wrong either.

Point Break: Freedom Arms 83 Tombstone: "Street Howitzer" 10 bore SxS

I don't run Remington Accutips in 20 bore but in 12 bore they shoot well in a 870 and 1100. I have heard that the 20 bore shoots much better.

I find it hard to turn down a decent gun at price of $100...

I carry the Executive more than any other knife. Perfect size for me. Nice knives. I have been carrying my silver alox Pioneer and Farmer a lot more lately, too.

I honestly think you can do some filing on that spine to make the blade shape resemble the Farmer's knife. I've always wanted a deluxe Svord model. Enjoy and post a review.

I will echo James.... I reprofiled the edge and refinished the handle. My favorite knife. I use it from skinning all the way to food prep in my kitchen. Again is it too much work for an inexpensive knife? Probably, but I enjoyed the chore.

A tradition is being passed on to a newcomer. Does not matter who is teaching who. Awesome to see youngsters taking up the sport.

I call a particular .410 single shot "The fatty gauge" and I call Daddy's Beretta 390 "Ol' Bent Barrell" or "Italiain Trash". Note: I love Italian shotguns...

Wheel weights because Daddy works in the automotive business. He gets the wheel weights from the dealership for free and traded a boy who owns the muffler shop a 15 pack of Keystone light for 2 overflowing 5 gallon buckets of wheel weights.
