    PCC decision

    The current model Ruger PC Carbine is superb. I have one and am more impressed with it every time I take it out. It's a well thought out, high build quality carbine. Accurate and fun to shoot. If Corrine likes it, your grand daughter likely will too :) -- .

    Help me pick out a 12g for HD, please...

    Stevens 350 . I really like this shotgun. It's a hell of a lot of gun for around $300. Check one out. It's a clone of an Ithaca M37, except it's all steel. Very nice adjustable ghost ring back and a shielded fiber optic front. Very smooth operating. It's a perfect fit for me. 5+1. I...

    Air Gun Shooters?

    . Whisler - Thanks for the tip, but this is an FAC rifle. It runs about 28 ft lb full throttle. Steve at Pomona Airguns did his adjuster mod on this rifle. I can run it as low as 10 ft lb or anywhere in between that and full power. It has a hex adjustment screw that he installed. You...

    Air Gun Shooters?

    . I got into airguns in a big way a few years ago. Bought many, sold many. Kept two -- Beeman R7 springer in 20 caliber and and an Air Arms S410 carbine pre-charge pneumatic in 22 caliber. Both are joyful guns to own and shoot. Both are incredibly accurate. dxr .

    looking for single action revolvers for cowboy mounted shooting

    . New Vaquero. It's like having a Colt that will take a beating and not suffer for it. Ruger built this gun for CAS. They demanded it ! dxr .

    Your EDC?

    Leek is numero uno . I voted Kershaw, but could have voted for something else as I rotate my EDC around. But if forced into one EDC choice I would have to go with a Kershaw Leek with G10 scales and SV30 blade. I also carry a BM Nitrous Stryker when I want to carry something a...

    Quality Knife Conundrum

    . I 2nd HSO here. Buy a good $100 knife and then buy an Edge Pro Apex to keep your knives running right. You won't regret it. dxr .

    Quality Knife Conundrum

    . You don't have to spend $350 to get an excellent knife. You are buying into "premium" when you pay $350 for a folder like a CR Sebenza. It would be hard to justify it in the realm of utility only. Some people are drawn to exclusivity and what they see as extreme refinement and quality of...

    Musso Bowie

    . I've wanted a Musso type Bowie for a while. I found one on Ebay I liked and picked it up. This knife is a "biggun". The blade is 13.5 inch long blade, 2.5 inches deep. 1/4 inch on the back. Ebony handle. 1095 steel. Brass fixtures. Very sharp. It was sold by the maker, Joel Rouse...

    Knife Edge Angles

    Edge Pro Apex . I used a Lansky at one time. It's the right idea. Just not the best execution of it. If you really like blades and like to keep them in top form, which it sounds like you do from your original post, then investigate the Edge Pro Apex. It's worth every penny...

    EDC Update Light and Blade

    . EDC -- CCW - Kahr PM9 or P380. Just depends on the pants. Knife - Benchmade Stryker Light - Streamlight Nano Works for me. .

    Should I break down and buy an Endura?

    . Japan owns the (fine) blade. Ever hear of the samurai warrior or the katana sword ? Don't look at steel or a blade for Japan as anything but probably a plus. dxr .

    Hog Rifle... what do you use?

    hog hunting . These guys are using a .223 to good effect. Shot placement is the key. Contrary to rumors, hogs are not M1 Abrams tanks on the hoof. And as you will see, every one of these shots is taken on the run, which makes it tough. We've got big problems with hogs here in Texas. These...
