    Neat glock conversion 45 to 10 mm

    Watched this video last night. Wonder how reliable it shoots. I wonder too if the higher pressure of the 10 mm is safe to shoot in this gun without a new recoil spring. https://youtu.be/KNrCzP45Vdo?si=Fwnnxvi7aBfSOWQH

    How many rounds

    So I picked up my new gun today. It is a Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0 in 10 mm from PSA. Came with four magazines and a holster, and a $100 rebate. It's my first 10 mm so I don't have any ammo for it. I was thinking of ordering 500 or a thousand rounds. I can have it shipped for free for about 40...

    Wood splitting sword

    I am not sure how practical it is but it's certainly impressive. Probably not an everyday carry item though.

    https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/chicago-politics/what-are-ghost-guns-and-why-are-they-now-banned-in-illinois/2835952/ There is so much wrong with this report but the law was signed into being.

    Christmas present

    I've been thinking of getting myself a Christmas present this year. A few years ago a shooting buddy let me shoot his Glock 10 mm. I rather liked it. I'm trying to convince myself it would not be all that bad to have another caliber to feed. I haven't quite convinced myself one way or the...

    naming your guns

    Do your name your guns? I named two of mine. You might guess what they are by their names. Boris is one. The other is Moses.

    two more or less favorable SCOTUS decisions today

    The first rules that sports betting authorized by states cannot be banned by congress on 10th amendment grounds. I wonder if this might eventually be applied to some of the firearms freedom bills that have been passed in some states. The other seems a little goofy but the court ruled that a guy...

    so ARs are getting cheap...

    Maybe it is time to get one in 7.62x39 just to have one. It would not be violating my "no new calibers" rule since I have an SKS already.

    LC9S

    I went and picked my new lc9s up from my FFL yesterday at lunch time. I didn't have time to even open the box last night. I'm truly surprised at how nice the trigger is. I haven't had time to go shoot it yet but this has a nice clean trigger which makes me think it will be a dream to shoot. Has...

    If a suppressor is damaged do you need a new tax stamp to replace it

    budget backup sights

    I have a 9 mm AR style carbine. It currently has a red dot style sight on it. I was thinking I would like to put backup sights on it, just for the heck of it as much as anything else. My scope is mounted directly on the rail so there is no good way to mount backup sights except on a 45...

    silencer legal in all 50 states?

    It seems that Silencerco has brought a product to market that they claim is legal in all 50 states. It is a black powder gun with a fixed in place silencer. https://www.americanrifleman.org/articles/2017/9/19/silencerco-releases-first-ever-50-state-legal-suppressed-muzzleloader/ I wondered...

    Taylor Knife/BTI

    I saw a Youtube video the other day that said SW has gotten rid of all the Taylor people at BTI which sucked in the Taylor brand knives. I wonder what that means for the Schrade branded products. Of late they seemed to be focusing on budget friendly knives and many of them seem quite good for...

    Cartridge identification

    So I bought this Mosin rifle and it came with a 50 caliber ammo can full of ammo. Most of it was in boxes or little packages but there was 46 loose cartridges. In looking through them to make sure they were all the same I found one that was different. I think it's a 308 but I'm not sure. The...

    military bolt guns

    So if one was to have a reasonable assortment of such things, what would be the guns one would need to have. Say keep it to 20 or fewer.
