    It would be interesting to hear his response to... "what are all of the reasons why you don't own a gun?" or better yet... "what are all of the reasons you don't think I should own a gun?"

    RC

    Were it not for RC, I would have blown my hand off reloading or cut it off with a blade. Prayers, friend.

    What has the Nice attack told us now!

    Note to self...we need a 'tactics' thread for large crowds and vehicular homicide. Im imagining myself in a large crowd, as the group's designated driver, carrying a concealed pistol. Loud music, distractions, confusion. Now a truck comes plowing toward me and the confusion really...

    How to make make a stock look GOOD.

    I am starting a knife handle with birdseye maple, which stains the same as burled maple. there are several resources teaching how to use aquafortis to make the burling "pop". It was hard to find but trackofthewolf has it. I recommend getting a spare piece of the same species as your...

    Doing something for the first time

    Join a months-long season of competitive shooting. Different scenarios with different weapons each week. Kind of like a not-made-for-tv version of top shot. Of course, id have to acquire on all the different tools necessary for such an endeavour. That would bring its own set of firsts.

    Any Opinel fans here?

    I have several. I do not like their stainless blades but love their carbon blades. There is usually one in my pocket when im in the garden. It is easy to sharpen razor sharp and resharpen after a day of heavy use. it is cheap enough to use for things that are risky for a "good" folder.

    Wadcutters

    Before giving advice, can we make sure what you mean by ''completely sunk." if youve never seen wadcutters, then can look 'completely sunk.' There should be about 1/16 to 1/8" of lead standing proud from the case. The case should be crimped around the bullet. If the bullet is flush or...

    410 shotguns- who hunts with one, and for what?

    I bought a Lane handloader (yes, the one you load with a rubber mallet) and picked up some free hulls from the local range; they were throwing them away. Over the course of a couple Saturday afternoons watching football games, I loaded about 10 boxes of shells. I already had 209's for my...

    410 shotguns- who hunts with one, and for what?

    I use them for squirrel and pest control. Three, 36-cal round ball make a great chicken saver.

    what .410 to look for?

    There have been two references to expensive 410 ammo. I bought a lane hand loader to cut my ammo by 75-80%. I already had 209 primers for my muzzle loader and powder for my 44. All I had to add was some hulls, wads and shot. It took about one college football season worth of time, but I...

    what .410 to look for?

    I own a steven 39a, which I paid <200. It is functional but not elegant. It hates the cheddite hulls I bought for hand loads but does ok with Winchester or Remington hulls. The bolt action works but isnt smooth and jams the cheddite hulls. It patterns as well as any 410. I wish I would have...

    Shooting and Drinking at a BBQ?

    I dont have a problem with alcohol and guns at the same event. I have a backyard range and get-togethers often involve shooting. That said, after I remind people of the four safety rules, I always add one more......when youve taken your first drink, youve fired your last shot. I have never...

    Adventures with a Lee Loader

    I have hand-loaded hundreds of 410 shells without a primer going off. I think I would follow the same path as Jaguar of one ever did. Im interested to see how they shoot.

    Black belt tanto

    I hope im able to perform karate in some sense for the rest of my life. I know there are many martial artists on this forum. I am interested to know how many still keep up with their art after getting a black belt. If a black belt is just the beginning.....

    Black belt tanto

    Myself with tanto; sensei with katana. I can't believe people used to actually fight with these things. Wow. I know, love and trust my sensei completely, but when we struck this pose, that view was nonetheless intimidating.

    Black belt tanto

    Check out the tanto my sensei gave as a present for passing black belt. She pushed me for seven years, but I finally passed muster for black belt candidacy in Shotokan karate. I wish I had started when I was younger, but I'm just thankful for the opportunity to train in this art. I love...
