    I made this thread quite a while ago and edited pictures due to my fears that the mask I was wearing may give some people a bad impression. I don't like posting my face online and I don't mind a good joke every now and then which is why I wore the mask. I will now repost this with pictures.

    Flintlock Sear Spring II Pendersoli Pennsylvania Rifle .45

    This is quite a nice rifle with a very long barrel. I have never tried a set trigger rifle (double trigger) before. Aside from from the hammer retaining screw falling out of the box (how don't ask me) and needing to be screwed back in (careful I get the impression it's easy to over torque and...

    The Best Folder for self defense opinions.

    I got this suggestion from a post by a member of a knife forum. I wonder if the Cold Steels traid lock folders would be a top pick. I know how Lynn Thompson is very well loved and admired around here. Whatever the case quality is a strong theme among most of his products. Like it or not.

    Recently all aspects of the NYC ban on nunchaku was struck down in federal court. So I am now the proud owner of a few of these goodies. I have always liked them since I was a kid and enjoyed playing with them and doing tricks. They provide a good workout for the wrist, upper arms, forearms...
