    New Spyderco Mule Team 12

    I just got the new Spyderco Mule 12 re-release in Cru-Wear. I have not decided what I'm going to do for scales yet. I could 550 Cord wrap it but that looks kinda cheap, I don't care for the half ass fitting Halperin scales and I'm not a knife maker - So hand fitting some Micarta would be...

    I love Trade In's - Smith 66-4

    Back in the early to mid 1990's there were tons of 686, 681, 581 and 586 Smith and Wesson's on the used market - all trade in's from Police Depts. I've always liked a good revolver and even in my early 20's I knew these were worth keeping forever but youth got the better of me. I bought, traded...

    As the title says, Has anyone ever used N340 in the .38spl? I've got a co worker who is considering it. He is looking for a clean powder to put behind some Extreme 158gr plated SWC's. He is looking for about 800FPS and I see the loading data from Laupula says it can do that but some...

    COLT Gold Cup Elite 40. Came up for sale on a local board. I don't care for .40S&W personally but I knew I had to have this one. Only 250 were built as a special run for a company called Accu-Sport. This one has been fired and has a few minor scuffs on the right side from dirt in the...

    New Ruger 10/22, two weeks later....

    Bought a new Ruger 10/22 (std carbine) at the gun show. With the unusually low price of $179.00, it seemed like a sure bet. I've been wanting one to modify for sometime, considering the only other .22 rifle I have is my family heirloom Remington 513T. I've seen some pretty cool 10/22's...

    BUG Range Report: NAA Guardian .32ACP

    I've never really thought of myself as a BUG or "mouse gun" type of guy... but darned if I've not somehow aquired quite a few of them in the past couple of years.

    Range Report: Classic 1959 Colt Cobra

    I'm really a fan of the Colt D frame revolvers. I own quite a few of them and althou I quit carrying my newest Cobra (a 1972) last year in favor of a J frame Smith, however I still love to get the Colts out of the safe and to the range every now and then. Today I brought out my 1959 Cobra...

    Smith and Wesson Combat K Frame

    Everybody has their own idea of what a "Combat" pistol should be. At one time revolvers ruled and the K-38 Smith was THE Combat pistol to have. Even thou most people have gravitated to high capacity auto pistols, I like the simplicity revolvers offer. I feel they can still serve a vital role...
