    Ruger Distaste

    The first handgun I ever purchased was a Ruger Security Six. I bought it while in the military, in 1976. I very much regret selling it. I never forgot that Ruger and it started a passion for Ruger as well as S&W revolvers.

    Grand Pa's 22, sort of.

    Going shooting with grandpa is like business associates going golfing. It's more about life/business/values/tips/companionship/brotherhood/love etc. than it is about the actual reason to get together. Your grandpa using shooting to get your undivided attention, was a VERY wise man. You are...

    Nikon Buckmaster vs Monarch

    The minister of finance watching? :D Go Monarch - it's brighter and if you change rifles and hunting situation, you might NEED the brighter scope. That said, I've got a 2.5-10x Monarch on a 7MM WSM I'm taking to Africa. It's that good of a scope. I didn't see the second page and it...

    Won rifle i don't want- sell as-is or w/ scope?

    You'd certainly come out ahead selling a NIB gun rather than buying a new cheap scope to sell make a used gun with a used cheap scope. I concur. Leave the rifle in the box. Don't chance scratching it while mounting a scope.

    Winchester 94ae in .44 Rem. Mag.

    I've had this 94AE .44 magnum for several years now and I like it fine. I put a Williams receiver sight and a Lyman brass bead front sight on it. It is a fun little rifle and shoots good enough with hand load XTP's...same load I use in my .44 mag revolvers. I think this version was called the...

    AR15 Rifle -vs- M4 Carbine??

    My 16" DD M4 is 'yote accurate. That's well within specs of it's intended use. Prarie dogs? My Remington 700 in .204 Ruger. Today's quality M4 carbines are as accurate (for the intended targets) as the old 20" military rifles. Today's 20" rifles are silly accurate and prarie dog accurate at...

    Where do you live? And why?

    In live in the suburbs of Ft Worth. I retired from the city and am still here to help my 84 year old mother. When she's gone, I'm going back to the Florida Keys. I'm not a deer hunter so the Keys will not stop my type of hunting: large predators and my bucket list must have, African Safari.

    Political Correctness in the Knife World

    The boss grew up in a very protected environment. How sad. When I was a Cub Scout, I got my first knife. After getting permission from my teacher, I took the knife to school for show and tell.

    10 Most Concealable Weapons (including Razorblade Cap)

    Years ago I saw a guy that had a "pouch" in the tip of his finger. Inside the pouch was half of an injector razor blade. The pouch was made in a manner such as today's piercingd. He got very drunk and cut a slit between skin layers at the tip of the finger. He inserted the blade. Usung...

    50-year-old Dallas woman shoots and kills home burglar

    I applaud the lady for bringing swift justice to the punks, but she need to learn to let the pros do their job. If they were coming out, she was within her rights to shoot and protect her property. Thanks for the news, Deaf. That's a familiar name from some other forum.
