    Speed loader tubes?

    I've been looking for an alternative to the rubber loading tubes offered by Dixie gun works as they are constantly out of stock. Something to hold a ball/bullet and powder charge for my ROA so I don't have to faff around with powder flasks. Thoughts anyone?

    Rambo Knives!!

    Anyone any experience with the United Cutlery line of film replicas? As a set they seem like they would make nice wall hangers but hollow handled survival knives are massively frowned on over here, especially by the Bushcraft community, just wondering how these might hold up to any actual...
