    Machete I think

    I’ve had an Old Hickory 14” butcher knife for years. My old Machete quit. I discovered the butcher knife in a drawer in the basement. 14 is plenty enough for my use with semi bolo shaped blade and 1095 steel. A slightly thicker blade than the Tramontina. Bought the Marble sheath, it has just the...

    RIA 1911 10mm

    I just got the urge for a 10mm, not knowing what I’m going to do with it or what a 10mm is for here in the hills and hollers of the Missouri Ozarks. With thrift in mind I bought a RIA 1911 basic GI model. Surprisingly it seems to be very well made. LGS had ammo, $43 for a box of 50 (thrift was...

    The Confusing World of Red Dots

    I’ve been running the same Bushnell TRS 25 on various guns for the past 8 years, I’ve grown accustomed to it and it works well for me. As I acquire more guns I decided I need another red dot. This time I thought I might try a reflex. It seems you can’t find anything with a decent review for less...

    Ammo Prices

    As long as we continue to pay these 2X - 3X - 4X prices for ammo that is where prices will stay.

    Volquartsen Customer Service

    I sent the frame of my Ruger 22 Competition to Volquartsen for them to install a trigger kit. I mailed it late last Friday, it is out for delivery back to me today. That’s four business days from start to finish, unheard of in these times. I am totally amazed and I told them so. Needless to say...

    The New Normal

    Am I foolish to think 22 ammo prices will ever get back to 4-5 cents, or should I just man up and pay 10-15 or more?

    Most of my purchases throughout my life have been the least expensive thing possible consequently most of my stuff is not the best. I love 22 handgun, l wanted a good one so, today I ordered a S&W model 41 .22 semi auto pistol, not cheap but neither are Lamborghini’s.

    Price and Availability

    As I poke around at gun and ammo websites I’m overwhelmed at ammo prices which are sometimes 3-4X what they were just a few months ago. Guns likewise are staggeringly high priced. All of this while so much stuff is out of stock. I always think I need more ammo but I refuse to pay current prices...

    Dry Lube for Cylinder

    I get some spent brass sticking in my .22 revolver. I had a guy “iron” (whatever that means) the cylinder which helped. I’d like to keep it lubed up with something dry, not sticky oil to help even more. Suggestions?

    My Search for a Bowie Knife

    My off and on desire for a decent Bowie knife goes back for years. I wanted American made and stainless blade. A week ago I found a Case on ebay, no bids (yet), "used" in "perfect" condition. I put it on my watch list. New Case Bowie's are running $170 everywhere, even Amazon. It went yesterday...
