I thought this was a neat little chart while doing some research for some of my knives. If this is readily known or has been copied recently, I apologize for the clutter. :) http://www.knifecollector.net/BuckKnifeDates.html

So lately I have been longing for the beautiful lines and heft of a nice 38 special over my wonder-nine. So I sold the S&W 9mm and purchased a new 38 special +P, stainless Rossi 38 special. I got it from Buds, new for 319.00 after taxes, insurance and transfer fee from a local gun shop where I...

My coworker and I went shooting a few weeks back and his CZ75B was having some problems. When engaged in slower fire, and taking up the rearward travel of the trigger, the trigger would not fire the pistol and just be frozen and not able to travel any further back. I encouraged him to send it...

...and I'm not talking about lovers of Black Sabbath, Metallica and Megadeth. No, you guys who really know your steel what do you think would be the top 3 or 4 knife blade steels in a folder which perform very well in say a variety of situations? I know this may change a good deal, but hell I...

Just wondering if deploying the blade quickly can drastically incur wear on a folding knife as opposed to a controlled slow opening. I know the autos and the assisted openers come out pretty fast, but wondering if inherent in their lock system is a preventative measure? Do lockbacks have...

I have not seen many folks talk about their SD9VE...this seems good to me in perhaps one way, in that no one is reporting problems...I certainly am quite happy with mine. If you have one of these "American Glocks" give out a shout and let us know how its working for you. Mine has digested...

My little girl is almost 8 and knows I'm a knife guy. With her mother's help she got me the first knife I have ever received on Father's day (and I have a thirty year old as well from the first ex). Anyway, little Ella asked to be taken to Dick's by her mother, and while at the counter she...

I'm a lefty and holster options are not as open for me. Also I want to start carrying more often but wonder about the mag release on the handgun facing outward instead of being directed toward my body. Should I get a holster that covers the mag release, or not worry about it? I'm afraid the...

Buck Slimline 721.

So how long after a shooting session do you wait to clean your handgun(s)? I sort of fluctuate...sometimes the same day...sometime just a rag on the outside and then could be several weeks later. Today was my first cleaning of a pair of 9mms more than a month after going to the range.

I can see hunting for food, game management and even fur, but merely for sport and a trophy doesn't sit right with me. The forum states that sporting challenge is part of what it means to be human...is it truly? I'm not bashing anyone for what they do re: hunting, but I would like to...

So what do you carry? Why a folder? -or- Why a fixed? What brand of blade do you carry? For me its a folder. I like the ease of pocket carry since I don't always wear a belt for a fixed. Right now its the new Buck 721 Slim.

Just wondering if there was a knife forum you fellas would recommend? Thank you in advance.

Is the difference between 440A and 440C the same as AUS8 and Aus6? How about the differences in characteristics? Feel free to be as technical as you need to be...I'm learning and want to learn more. Thanks in advance for any information.

I recently bought this Myerco Blackie Collins plain edge tanto and am very impressed with the quality of materials and lock up. It is a 5 inch blade, coated black, excellent construction, G-10 scales and very solid. Got it for under 30 bucks and it certainly seems to be worth more. Does anyone...

I finally got to the Walmart early, 6:45am, and they had 30 boxes of this ZQI 9mm, 123gr. Nato FMJ. This stuff doesn't have much description on the box, brass casing, 50 rounds for 22 bucks. Walmart had signs up all over the sporting goods counter and ammo case saying you can only purchase one...

Short of going online and probably being disappointed, I am damn frustrated with lack of 9mm ammo. I only have Dick's, Walmart and Meijer to choose from. The smaller gun shops are out too. My supply of practice ammo is running low and with a new pistol, its looking like I wont be able to...

Thank you to my wife for getting me this pistol. I got this from under the Christmas tree last week and am still shocked that my wife bought me a handgun. So off to the range I went today. I had: 100 rounds of Federal 115 gr FMJ 50 rounds of Remington 115 gr FMJ 50 rounds of WWB 147 gr...

Just wondering if anyone has actually opened a gift of gun on the blessed morning? What was it? Your reaction? :)

I have it under good authority that one of these little pistolas will be under the Christmas tree this year...a first for me and I'm definitely excited. If you own one of these handguns can you tell me what your thoughts and experiences have been? Thanks,
