    A little personal revelation, possibly incorrect

    High carbon blades sharpen easier and better because of the uniformity the carbon molecules encourage in the metal. I should really get a set and start working on my sharpening. I can't be leaving everything with factory edges.

    Boker Plus Vox Rhino, Stag/leather or Micarta/Kydex?

    Hey all, I'm thinking about taking advantage of my soon to expire Amazon Prime trial and get a smaller fixed blade knife, and one of the ones I'm looking at is the Boker Plus Vox Rhino, they look very much my speed and I believe there is a place in my life for that knife. My question is...

    CRKT Dragon as an everyday knife?

    Would that work, and how would it be? Is the knife worth buying or is it somehow flawed? I know basically nothing about knives, what should I know?

    Same gun, different calibers, different price

    Found out tonight that my buddy's PM40 cost more than a PM9 at the same shop. He didn't see anything wrong with it at all, actually he thought that's exactly the way it should be, even though they are exactly the same gun. I've run into this attitude towards calibers in a few other friends...

    For anyone looking for HST or EFMJ

    It looks like TDS-US has a variety of it in stock, 124+P 9mm, 155 and 180 .40, and 230+P .45 ranging in price from $25 for the 9mm and .40 stuff to $28 for the .45, though there are a couple of oddball loads they've got too that have different prices. Not sure why the XM40HC is $29, but...

    Are felons prohibited from owning muzzle loaders?

    Like cap and ball revolvers and all the other muzzle loading firearms, I know they are not considered firearms by the ATF but how does that work, do they run afoul of the law anyway by the components they load with or by state-by-state laws regarding what constitutes a "loaded" firearm? It...

    What kind of ballistics does this equal?

    a 25 grain bullet, probably .17 caliber, at 2400 feet per second. What kind of use would a cartridge like that have? What calibers overlap it?

    Who wants to help me figure out a price?

    For a CZ PCR, with CZ Coco Bolo grips, a Steve Bedair guide rod, 15# Wolff mainspring with the original springs as well, a Kadet kit that also has a Steve Bedair guide rod, and there are three magazines for the Kadet and I'm not sure how many exactly for the PCR, between four and twelve...

    Data on input of hunters/outdoorsmen to conservation?

    I'm wondering if anyone has any links to reputable data on the amount of money that is put towards conservation and state wildlife agencies, especially compared to strict private donations/"conservation" groups input? I know money isn't really the best way to study who is more helpful, but...

    My wife put my shotgun in the bath

    And now I can't unload it and break it down to repair the damage. She also replaced all my oil with water. The shotgun is a Mossberg 500 Persuader, loaded for HD, and I cannot get the slide open to save my life. Thank God I found out about this before I ever needed it for a home defense...

    Henry .22 vs Henry .22 Golden Boy differences/issue

    Hey everybody, I was at Dick's today looking at the two Henry .22s they had, a Golden Boy and a model costing about $140 less, lighter round barrel, and different sights. I think the stock must have been different too, because I was checking out the sight picture on each, and I could not even...

    Where are all the used/police stainless K frames?

    Hello, it's just about tax return time, and one route I am thinking about taking is buying myself and my wife a pair of stainless .357 K frames, since every CDNN catalog I have ever gotten has been literally stuffed with them, they were practically giving them away every time I'vve seen a...

    thinking about a supressor, CZ especially

    And I can't decide between 9mm and .40. I've got more .40 pistols, but two of them I can easily change to 9mm fr range fun. If I did get a supressor for 9mm, where can I get threaded CZ barrels, and what can I expect to pay for them? I have a PCR and have my eye on a 75 Tactical in my local...

    5" Model 60 questions

    Anyone have one of these? I handled one yesterday and it is a very attractive gun, I like the combination of J frame and five inch barrel. Seems like it would be a very fun combination, especially with light-loaded Magnums or any .38 ammo. I did notice that the construction seems to be...

    S&w 431pd

    I don't have one, but I saw it in Guntests, and even though it is only a .32, and I am mostly an auto guy, especially for carry, and my other two revolvers are both .357s, I really, really want one. The upside of the .32 is that it would probably be easier for my wife to use (it will be for her...

    Hello, my name is NG VI, and I have a problem

    I opened up my bathroom mirror last night looking for some Benadryl (my wife is allergic to grapes, but decided to try chicken marsala I made anyway, whoops!) and I realized I have a serious problem. There was a bottle of Hoppe's No. 9 on the top shelf, right next to all the more ordinary...

    Check out this video editors web page

    It's great! http://www.newtek.com/3DA/ I really like the revolver theme they have going, although I can't quite figure out the way those cartridges are supposed to work. Maybe like a reverse Nagant?

    Assistance requested

    Sometime over the last week I've started thinking I really want a Glock 23. That isn't a problem, I love my 27, which is what has gotten me thinking about the 23, but the problem is that I will probably not be able to afford one without selling another gun, and all my other guns I like. I have...

    Helping LEO search daughters house

    I can't find it. I am looking for the post where one of the regulars here talked about an officer asking him to help clear his daughters' property, I can't remember the exact details, and I wish I could remember the wording of it so the search tool would be helpful. Can anyone help me find...
