The Science of cleaning, that is. It is 6 am, and I am unable to sleep; I am determined to find a better way to clean a handgun. I am going to find a poor man's method of cleaning guns that will challenge even the longest hours spent at the kitchen table scrubbing the action. The challenge...

I just got home from one of the most severe rainstorms in my area in a long time, and some thoughts occured to me: Today, we had such massive rain and hail that flash flooding occured everywhere you could imagine, stalling cars left and right; we live in a landlocked prarie, and though such...

As much as I hate using the word "tactical", it seems the only word that fits the context I'm using it in. Ok, so after watching too many movies and spending too long looking for a decent car to replace my guzzler, it just occurred to me that driving a manual transmission may be a...

Last night I had a bizzare dream where some Communist invading country had taken over Edmonton. I recall racing back home on foot, giving my family some of my guns from my safe to protect themselves with, and running off with my own guns in my BOB. I soon woke up with a nasty headache, thanks to...

Being the first male in the family ever to even HOLD a gun, I suppose that I've been relatively successful from turning them from "complete anti" to "we'll come shooting with you, when we're good and ready". Unfortunately, my sister (the most against guns and lives on her own) took a joke...

Just a rant... I was at the shop, putting money down on my new Sig Pro SP2009 with a factory threaded barrel. As the gun is sitting in front of me on the mat while I chat with my friend across the counter, some, er, gentleman trundles across the store and sees this gun in front of me...

I have an old police-trade Model 28-2 that I picked up for a song a little while ago, and it has been my favorite shooter, especially for higher-power .357 ammo. As of late, I've had to repair a pushoff problem on it; nothing completely debilitating, considering I shoot DA only, but it didn't...

Before I start, I must inform you that I live in the wonderful People's Republic of Canada, where self-defense carries a far harsher penalty than does actual commission of a crime. Not the best place to live, I know, but it's where my life is, until I move down south or Alberta finally cedes...

Well, here in the relatively cool temperature city of Edmonton, Alberta, I have discovered the hard way why those around me have continued to bestow their seemingly nonsensical knowledge and omnious warnings on me. In all my infinite knowledge and wisdom and without much foresight and...

Uh oh. Yes, I've done it. I never thought it would ever happen, but now it has. I now own more handguns than I can handle. There a USP 9mm Tactical out there with my name on it. Yes, they're available here in Canada, by some miracle and work of a greater power that suddenly seems...

How do you guys usually clean your guns? I ususally spray MPro7 all over the frame, slide, and barrel, and then brush clean, but even using compressed air, I can never blow out and get out the annoying residue that gets stuck in the tiny nooks and crannies of the frame and slide. I've heard that...

And now it's time for... BOKCHOI CHOOSES HIS NEXT 9MM! Starring: Beretta 92FS, HK USP9F, Glock 17, Para-Ordnance 18.9 LDA, and Walther P99! Alright, here we go. 1. Beretta 92FS Pro: I've always liked Berettas. They're super smooth, sharp looking, and they have Chow Yun-Fat's...

I go to the gun store today, as per my usual gun store vists every week to avoid having an unweildy mass begin to accumulate in my wallet, on the rare occasion it does. I like to think of it as a preventative practice. It's the time of year that a few new/neato guns show up, a good time. A...

Hey, I wish to get a shotgun for the trunk of my car; my friends want to drag me on a road trip in my 4-cylinder across the Canadian praries, and I want to know what the best / most versatile length for a shotgun barrel should be. (Yes, it is legal for me to go across the country with a...

Yes, your resident moneywaster Bokchoi has done it again... In just 3 months, I have purchased 4 S&W revolvers... 2x S&W Model 586 1x S&W Model 29-2 1x S&W Model 28 Highway Patrolman ... and I want more. Though my P7 and CZ-75B will always have their place, I feel confident that...
