    Cleaned my reloading area...

    I don't really reload much in the summer, or spring for that matter. I reload in the fall/winter. My reloading area is in my garage, and I went back there this morning to see how messy it had become. Good grief, what a mess. I spent 2 hours going through boxes, throwing away gobs...

    No more SCARs for civilian market?

    I read somewhere that they are not producing these rifles for the civilian market anymore. Is this true? There are 3 on my local Armslist in the last 24 hours, with the highest being $4600 with no optic. These are already very expensive to start, but wow are they surging upwards.

    Quality of the Palmetto State Armory Freedom uppers?

    I've bought a couple of their complete lowers, and was thinking of just slapping on their 16" Freedom complete uppers. The use for these rifles would be general plinking, for fun. I've read their good reviews on their website, but wanted to run it by y'all before I ordered.

    Anderson "multi" lower?

    I'm working on a trade and someone offered me an Anderson "multi" lower. I checked out their sight to see if they're regular AR lowers, but can you confirm? What's "multi" about them?

    For my range bag. I take a lot of gear with me, and my huge duffel bag wasn't working. It was $130 on close out, regularly being $199. I'm excited.

    Mec-Gar mag quality

    I have a Sig P229, and I've heard Mec-Gar makes their magazines, along with Berretta, etc. I ALWAYS buy factory mags, but are the Mec-Gar mags really the same quality as a Sig? Ease my mind.

    Cleaned 4 of my 5 1911s today...wheh!

    I started with my SA Model A1 GI, then SA Loaded, then Colt Gold Cup Match Series 70 Repro, then Ed Brown Special Forces. My fingers are tired! The last one is my Les Baer Monolith. I could toooootally tell the quality as I moved through the different models. I love my collection, and I just...

    To pay respects to my hero, best friend, teacher, spiritual advisor, knife sharpening partner, gun show pal, and Dad. He passed away last July 23rd, so this first Memorial Day shall be tough. He had more honor in his finger than I'll ever have. I took my son there yesterday to put flags on...

    Anyone ever tried 5 Star Firearms speed loaders?

    They look nice, but I'd like to know how they work before I order. Those metal loader blocks so nice, as well.

    Trap with O/U and 590A1 report

    Ok, first you need to know I'm not a great trap shooter. I'd probably average 12/25. However, I shot better with my 590A1 than my Stoeger Condor today. Is that odd? I would've thought just the opposite. I think that fiber front site, with ghost ring, really helped me in framing my shot.

    I've reduced calibers a LOT, and am happy. You?

    I've traded and sold to shed 13 calibers and now I'm down to 17HMR, 22/22Mag, 38/357, 9, 45ACP, 45LC, 30-30WCF, 5.56, 7.62x51, 30-06, and 12g. Much happier now. Less mouths to feed so I can concentrate on the stacking up of reloading components. I feel happy about my choice to do so. You...

    help me pick out handmade utility/camping knife.

    I'm interested in a nice knife, but I'm wondering if a Randall is just too nice for some light outdoor use. Hacking saplings around the property, etc. I'd like one to use, are these too nice for that stuff?

    Muzzle pointed at dude at gun show story...

    So I went to a gun show today here in St. Charles, about 30 miles north west of the St. Louis Gateway Arch. Outside of the main hall there is a table set up with two sheriffs safety checking firearms. One gentleman brought up a pistol to have them check, and when the police officers were...
