    Buck 119

    I had one of these classic knives with the stock black handle but lost it long ago. I got an email from Buck that they did another run of "Special" 119's so I ordered one with the Cocobolo handles. Beautiful knife, and it will bring back some memories.

    Called Sig Sauer today about dead night sights on my new XMacro TacOps

    After almost no wait I got a very nice lady who is sending me a pre-paid label to send in the slide and said they will replace the sights. I have seen negative comments about Sig Sauers CS but this went very well.

    What gun for disabled wife - she has MS

    MS has weakened her hands and arms to the point that she can't rack most autos and can't do the DA pull on a revolver. We went and looked at a S&W M&P EZ today in 9mm and she could rack it but said it was too heavy. The sales guy suggested the Ruger Security 380 but they didn't have one so we'll...

    Woohoo! Ordering a HF-1 and Belt from Tucker Gun Leather

    The wife gave me the go-ahead and said "Get it the way you want it". Heh. Black cherry leather, white stitching with crosscut stamping and star concho and black cherry belt. May add a mag pouch. I haven't ordered a holster in a long time and most of mine are IWB. But the wife wants to go for...

    Streamlight HL-X for Shotgun

    I bought this yesterday but the M-Lok adapter that I also bought didn't fit - the screw holes were too wide. So I ordered another one and it'll be here tomorrow. This Streamlight seems fantastic for the money, and it came with the pressure pad and everything to mount it. This is for my Mossberg...

    Mossberg 940 Pro Tactical

    I'm thinking of getting my first semi-auto and it would be for home defense. What do you think of this gun? My friend just bought a used 930 but this looks better, but more expensive also. https://www.mossberg.com/firearms/shotguns/940-pro/940-pro-tactical.html

    Buck 110 Custom Shop - S30V, Silver, Elk Handles :D

    I got it yesterday and never having owned a 110 this thing is Hefty! Very pretty also, although my crappy cell phone pics may not show it. Try making a Buck Custom, you'll like it! I am very happy with mine.

    Bought a new knifemaking book

    It's from Blade Magazine and it looks like it could help a lot of makers or people that want to make knives. I bought it to see how many tips I know and how many I don't. Lol. https://www.gundigeststore.com/product/knifemaking-hacks-384-tips-to-make-knives-like-the-pros/

    Itching to Buy a Knife - Buck 119 Cocobolo

    I remember having a 119 back in the day and don't know what happened to it. Was looking around and SMKW has it for $79.99 but it's out of stock. I was thinking I'd get the upgraded Cocobolo handle just because. :) Yes I have customs and I have a Strider SnG, knives that are much better and...

    Found a bunch of ammo in my garage

    Last summer I got deathly ill and spent 3 months in the hospital. The first week I was on full life support and they called the wife twice and said I was going to die. We were about to move into this house so my wife did it with the help of her family. Once I came home in Oct. I was told the...

    Aegis EDCi

    Has any of you knife knuts used this stuff? It seems it was popular in the knife world and then I guess they went out of business, but now it's back with the help of the great knife maker Todd Begg. I ordered a bottle for 11.99 and 3.50 shipping. http://aegissolutionsusa.com/ It's supposed to...

    Going through my knives (PIC HEAVY) :D

    My wife started cleaning my office, where most of my knives were, and told me to put them in the safe. I meant to move at least some of them to the safe anyway so the big move was on. :) I've been cleaning them and took some pics of some of the folders: Strider SnG: Wheeler knife...

    SA Mil-Spec Customized by Bob Miller

    I think I posted this gun when I got it but the pics weren't that great so I finally got around to taking some more - with my phone. :) Bob Miller did a lot of work to this pistol and it is sweet to shoot! Enjoy.

    Made my first knife sheath ever

    So I've got this knife (the first one in 5 years) about done so I used instructions from the book "How to make knives" by Loveless to attempt my first sheath ever. It took me 3 tries to get the pattern right but once I did it went quickly. I glued the belt flap down with Barge cement, then...

    Thinking of a reloading blowout

    The wife wants to move and that'll mean downsizing - I could keep my reloading stuff but I haven't shot much these past few years and was thinking of just reloading all the components I have, then selling the equipment. I have Dillon toolheads and die set-ups for .357/.38, .45, .44mag/spl...
