thanks for clarification. I'm almost at the point of dealing with the arrow spines, and what I'll have to do to adjust them. need to shoot a variety of arrows to get a feel for the sweet spot in the shaft stiffness. will try your suggested method for fletching. cheers, CA R

getting ready to do some fletching myself. I have wood arrows made from oak and cedar. I will probably spline the ends of these arrows by cutting a small groove along the surface. I plan to tie the feather, but might glue them also. I don't have a professional jig for fletching, but after I...

for fixed blades, I also suggest that you look at this one ... http://www.coldsteel.com/Product/38CSM/SRK_SAN_MAI_III.aspx it is outside your price range by $50. but it is well worth spending the extra $50 for this knife. the blade shape is simple and strong. most importantly, this is a...

"Man, when I think back to when all we had were cedar arrows, fixed 2 blade broadheads and a "high tech" recurve, I think maybe we were doing it the right way! " that's where I am now. I have some oak and cherry arrows - I got the shafts and have been straightening them. I will be fletching...

you guys have got some good ideas here. I might install a small gun safe on one of the shelves in the bookcase beside my bead. that would be practical for me. CA R

after going thru a very painful experience - all can tell you is DON'T try to buy guns from Web sites if you live in California. There is not much point looking at For Sale adds from other parts of the USA, or even Web pages of gun makers. It is just too difficult to tell what option is legit...

"Finally someone said SIG!!! I have 3, black nitron, all stainless, and a TTT. All are fantastic." I am really hoping I can say the same thing about my own 1911 Sig. However, I plan to give this gun a really thorough shakedown, and test it over several months at the local ranges. By that...

the answer to the OP is SURVEILLANCE. Yes cameras. Look into various types. But you can get good cameras now that connect to the Internet or thru wireless. If you can see whats going on, you might not have to get out of bed. Just roll over and go back to sleep. :-) CA R

I'm gonna throw this one out. and this comment is controversial. before I go on ... I just bought a 1911 Sig myself. I have not done enough shooting with the gun to evaluate the comment below. OK - moving on. I was talking to a SOF guy who teaches handgun classes. As in ... a lot of...

I like WL's comment. "Condition "Butterscotch" " HAHAHA!! Can I borrow that one. Good stuff :-) CA R

thanks folks. will strip and have fun. CA R

Yeah ... unfortunately I am talking about guns :-) I just got a 1911 (Sig). I'd like to get a CD that shows the process for stripping and cleaning the weapon. I don't mind paying dollars (yeah - real $$) if it's a good quality CD that actually breaks down the steps for disassembling the...

it's a tough call. you gotta' make it based on your gut and your heart. there is no guarantee the law will support someone if they intervene - it could go against them. so in the end .. you just have to make your own choices. what can you live with, and what can't you live with? CA R

I would like to recommend the following book. I bought it hoping it would give me some ideas on how to improve my shooting with revolvers. It did MUCH MORE than that! I think that author Grant Cunningham did a great job with this book, and it actually changed my mindset about some important...

"The seriousness of the crime varies a great deal among jurisdictions. Law enforcement officers are almost always excepted. " Those two facts are the root of our problem right there. Since the level of the crime varies tremendously, this causes confusion. And since the average Joe on the...

IlikeSA ... do you mind if I ask a simple question. I have not been tased myself, so I don't really know what the experience feels like. If you are tased with a body shot, does this cause the muscles in the trunk of your body to stop functioning (only)? Are your arms and hands able to still...

SouthernBoy. Hope that measure passes. I wish we had that kind of common sense in California, but there is not much chance of that right now. I haven't checked the wording for CA ... But i expect we are compelled to retreat. I wouldn't be surprised if we are also required to let the criminal...

Just one. If i have to invade N. korea, i will carry more. :-) CA R

"My Axis is disposable junk? " I'll take it. :-) CA R

I like the original article and link. Thanks to SouthernBoy for posting. We just have to remember that the man who wrote that link was a cop who was paid for arresting armed hold-up men. He already knew the situation and who his opponents were. We have the tough time of not knowing who our...
