    Swiss Army...tool

    Scissors with blades less than 4" from pivot are OK for carry-on per the site, but I have to wonder if pointed scissors would be permitted. Swiss army knives are currently prohibited unless they have a rounded, non-serrated blade. Butter knives are not prohibited in carry-on, nor corkscrews...

    Swiss Army...tool

    TSA generally bans tools that may intimidate, injure or cut. I can see potential issues with corkscrews, pointed files, scissors, and even can openers. As noted above and in other threads, individual TSA personnel have wide latitude. Any new solution would likely require accompanying...

    = $95 = Viridian Serac 6-24x50 (30mm tube) - Natchez Tax Refund Sale

    Scope, mount and rings all ordered at different times, all showed up May 6. I put rig together two days later, may try preliminary sight-in later today. I really like the fit and finish of the Warne 15 pic mount. Cheaped out with Monstrum V2 rings, but they are easily swapped out if any issues...

    Is USCCA getting a fair shake on YouTube?

    Insurance contracts are limited by the language of the policy and by state laws governing policy coverage. The recommendation above to read the policy was good advice, but even if the conduct isn't specifically excluded from coverage, the effect of state law may be to prohibit coverage. An...

    If You Desire to Have an Attorney and Cannot Afford One, ....

    As Alexander Pope noted 300 years ago, a little learning is a dangerous thing. Due in part to the entertainment industry, many have the erroneous impression that if they are not mirandized, their statements may not be used against them. As noted previously, timing, setting and circumstances bear...

    Digital Trigger Gauge

    One thing I discovered with my Lyman trigger pull scale is that when I set the trigger of my Tikka T3 near the lightest end of the pull range, readings became more erratic. Getting back off that ragged edge made the trigger pull more uniform and positive.

    New CZ Varmint .22 LR

    This guy could spend a lot more of my money if I wasn't careful! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkrWNNiSW4M

    New CZ Varmint .22 LR

    I am hoping mine will take a liking to Norma Tac 22, as it seems to be available at a reasonable price. With my luck, however, it will insist on Lapua polar biathlon.

    A blade for what?

    More info on pulls, if so inclined. I have never heard of French pulls. I had heard of long pulls. https://oldpocketknives.com/pocket-knife-pulls-an-opening-story/

    I am seeing little new information, so probably time to end this thread.

    What is going on with guns

    If folks are telling you to relax and not worry they are foolish. If they are spouting dire prophesies and telling you to expect a knock on the door they are making money. You probably don't need people telling you what to do. You need to read the documents, cross check them, and do what you...

    Ark Joining Multi-State ATF Suit on New Dealer Def'n

    I assume BGC means background check. Recently we have seen many failures of background checks to stop transactions, and they are not available to private citizens who might want to use them to avoid selling to a legitimately disqualified person, yet there is a big press to drive every...

    Digital Trigger Gauge

    Brilliant idea to get one for your buddy, so he can store it and you can use it when needed! I have had the Lyman old style for a number of years. Always amazed me that the trigger pull on my Tikka was slightly different every time. Maybe it was my technique, but I avoided the ragged edge of...

    Which bolt action .22 LR rifle would you recommend for accuracy from a bench or in the field?

    The Area 419 pic rail was on Amazon at one time. Looked like a honey, with the level etc but I will save $30 where I can. May also be available from Midway and Natchez. https://www.natchezss.com/area-419-cz455-1913-improved-scope-rail-7075-alum-30moa-type-iii-black...

    Which bolt action .22 LR rifle would you recommend for accuracy from a bench or in the field?

    I ordered the Serac. Thanks for the link. I have an old Nikon 6-18 mounted now, so just about anything should be an improvement.

    Which bolt action .22 LR rifle would you recommend for accuracy from a bench or in the field?

    I also learned from this thread. I ordered a Warne 15 moa rail, as I won't be shooting great distances, and will keep eye peeled for high value 6-24 scopes.

    Thompson Center Arms SOLD

    Apparently S&W has been selling T/C for awhile now. Here's a link to an announcement back in May 2021: https://www.guns.com/news/2021/05/04/s-and-w-to-sell-thompson-center I suspect someone got a pretty sweet deal. Probably Umarex.
