    Aggravated at myself (or, stupid springs and fat fingers)

    Ok so yesterday I decided to clean my Ruger Mark III after it came home packed with dirt from a friends house.

    The biggest joke in the Firearms industry...

    This will be mostly rant, the question is at the bottom. Saw this today on a certain website: A search on gunbroker shows that the KSG is selling (with actual bids) for almost double MSRP. If you can find one you can literally double your money in a week. Same is true for the...

    Tales from the Kilt

    well, I have seen the Utlikilt before, and a couple of months ago I finally ordered one. to be honest, I havent been brave enough to wear it too often, the sight of a 360lb, 6'4 guy with a scraggly beard wearing a kilt puts off an air of 'be nice to me or leave me the hell alone" so I havent...

    Steel balls... and other questions about bullets.

    poster, work in progress.
