    My new co-worker

    We've had a new sales rep for the past few weeks. Today she found out that I also work on SWAT magazine, and she said cautiously, while making a finger gun, "SWAT... as in... guns?" :scrutiny: "Yep." (waiting for the big "eew" face) "Cool! So do you go out to the range?" :p "Yep."...

    identify odd percussion rifle

    Dad likes his weird guns. It has a really short stock like it was meant for a kid, and is peculiar in that the "barrel" actually starts more than halfway down from where you'd expect. You remove the insert (see pics) load, and re-insert, locking in with the pin. Was this manufactured this way...

    green furry guns

    Ever seen green furry guns? Dad has. "Did Phil (my brother) tell you about the green furry guns?" he asked. I looked over my glasses and cocked an eyebrow. "Noooo.......?" "Well, you know it's been raining really hard this past week?" "Yeah......?" "And how humid that room (where...

    Radoms, 1911s and squibs (pics)

    I went to mom n' dads for the weekend. My brother and I, along with a couple of his in-laws, had a little range time. It was 1911 day and I brought my USPc. :eek: Phil's in-law, John, brought along his latest acquisition, a 9mm FB Radom VIS Model 35... another shot, showing rear &...

    Shooting .40 from a .45...

    ...doesn't quite work, as my brother found out. He accidentally loaded .40's into my .45 USPc, and heard an odd sound when he fired the first cartridge. The gun and my brother are fine.

    THR member on Blind Date tv show?

    Okay, so I admit I watch Blind Date on TNN. :p It's absolutely hilarious. A couple goes on a blind date with the tv show cameraman following them around, and then they tell all afterwards. I've always wondered why none of them took their dates to the range. Well, my wish was answered...

    Where some of your tax $ went

    Oleg and I found this trailer parked at the Ellington Agricultural Center in Nashville. We didn't get to go inside.

    photos from our latest range trips

    Oleg's friend, THR moderator Sven, visited the other week. We went to my parent's home where they have plenty of acreage to shoot on. It was cold that week. Sven shooting my 1187: Sven shooting cow patties with Oleg's M14: See? Isn't Tennessee much more fun than California...

    Just bought an FN49!

    photos by Oleg Volk We (Oleg, me, my bro & his friends) went to the Smyrna gun show this past weekend. I didn't plan on buying anything ;) so I didn't strap myself with cash. Anyhow, no sooner had we pulled into a parking spot when this guy walks by with the 8mm FN49. My brother and Oleg...

    what followed me home

    Went to the gun show yesterday. I didn't want to spend too much - gotta pay lots o' taxes (the bad thing about working freelance). My "quick fix", since I don't want to dish out the money for another gun, is to buy another knife. :p I bought my brother an Emerson Mini Commander for...

    "Kids Fighting Chance" video

    A few days ago at work, it was snowing badly and the kids were let out at school, so most of the co-workers' kiddies were at work to pass the time. The place normally turns into a day care/zoo, not to mention it's deadline and giving us in the production staff headaches. One of the parents...

    question on old CS knife, measuring blade length

    Bought a nice little Cold Steel tanto at the gun show today - it was originally one of a set of three, and this is the smallest tanto with brass hilt/pommel and leather sheath. I believe CS does not make this knife set anymore. I'd like to use this as a carry knife, but TN has a blade length...

    Christmas Mosin pics

    I rec'd a Hungarian Mosin M44 from Oleg for Christmas - I've always wanted one ever since I got my hands on my brother's a few years ago. They're incredibly fun to shoot and quite accurate, and it comes equipped with a sharp pointy thing! Carbines are just so much fun (and runt sized)...

    Just bought a Walther P1

    I've always wanted a P-38 because they just look so doggone cool . I ran across a P1 at my favorite pawn shop - it has the original holster & two mags. So it's not quite the original P38, but this will do just fine. The frame is dated 11/73 and the slide 4/81. It appeared like it had been...
