    Interesting photos from Mexico.

    Probably not concrete, just stucco or some stuff like that over a wood wall. Building code isn't so stringent down there.

    "Rhodesian Jungle" loads for HD?

    My freind cleared a bunch of wood from his nieghbors yard, and there was a large tree stump (don't know what kind of tree) and it had those brass numbers you put on your house (so the pizza guy can find it). We decided, hey, why not see the effects of 2-3/4"#4 bird, 3"#2 bird (steel), and...

    kel tech su-16 good or bad?

    I have yet been able to find somewhere that sells it in Manitoba Canada, or if they are non-restricted here, or even imported. Where in the USA to AR's go for $350??? Mini-14s are about $800 here, and go up. Even Soviet guns (vz 58) start around $700, though they come with 4 mags and bayonnet.

    shotguns for dangerous game?

    I have a rem 870 with 2 rnd extension for hiking in the woods. Black bears are what we face, if they don't run away. ( of the 2 we have ever seen, one ambled away, the other ran) In the oddity that it decides we are edible it gets 00b as a "loud noise and a stinging sensation, maybe I should not...

    rem 870 barrel question

    I shoot 2 3/4" 1 oz slugs and 3" magnum 00 buckshot out of my 870 smoothbore and I don't think its too bad. Although, my cheek takes the worst hit when shooting. Does the scope come back and whack you in the face? Or does the rifled barrel make the recoil different?

    Angle of knife edge, and hand sharpening tips

    I am fairly incompetent with regards to sharpening knives of any variety. I currently use a Lansky sharpening kit (diamond hones, and a guide rails) It only has 17, 20, 25, and 30 degree guides. Some of my knives have a steeper edge than this. First queston: What is the range of edge expected...

    weapon-mounted flashlights vs handheld flashlights w/ shotgun?

    Streamlight makes a nice bright LITTLE light, and light/laser combo for use on pistols etc. They have a cheap, but seemingly effective (don't have it on my gun) mount of the 870 that attaches it just forward of the nut that holds the magazine spring in the mag tube. Horrendously expensive in my...

    Useful or mall ninja?

    "Atomd:Say you just have to have a whole bunch of harmonicas ready to go at any moment, but at the same time there was a chance of being shot....that vest would be perfect!" Pure gold lolol. As most others have said, an actual MOLLE vest so you could put various pouches, slings etc, would be...

    "I had to get my gun"

    There is the catch 22, keep a loaded gun with you all of the time, or keep it locked in the safe, safe from children etc. Suspect got the jump on them, he had to break out and sneak over to the gun. Things could have gone worse. Good to see everyone is going to be ok, except maybe suspect...

    My home defense rifle set-up.

    At first I used dual automatic shotguns, using nothing but 00 bucks and rifled slugs. Then I upgraded to the aformentioned rocket propelled chainsaw. But to save on the cost of ammo, and fuel, I now use the following: Upon tripping the infared beam that crosses the hallway door, the crazed...

    Ruger mini 14 tactical

    I have been told by a supplier that the USA is banning exports on the Mini 14/30, and 3 places I have checked out are down to one or two units left or none at all. Unfortunatley I will not be able to see this rifle anyways.

    870 Express Rust!?!

    I went out for a long hike (6km of misery marsh) and several times my 870 express got splashed as I went from calf deep to belly button deep water. Shoot it later that day. Took it home, cleaned it, oiled it, put it in the safe, and nearly a month later she is still rust free. I'll admit I was...
