Yeah, I've never tried shooting a firearm from an unusual position...

Yeah, I do - I've driven everywhere on vacation, seen some awesome little towns, eaten at some great Mom and Pop diners, and really have had zero need to use an airplane. I don't travel for work, I don't have any living relatives to visit other than my immediate family, so why shouldn't I be...

Hmm, last time I flew anywhere was 1992. Nope, no issues.

I use a can opener to remove the top, then cut down with scissors.

Hmm, I personally know some of the guys at CZ Custom, have handled their products, and really don't remember anyone remarking about huge issues on my forum. Looking through the last year on their subforum, I found one complaint about an over bored barrel, and that's back to Jan 2023. I don't...

OWB for me, but I like it that way, since I started carrying a sidearm legally 40 years ago. One minor point about Mas' article. If you are not an off duty cop, how you respond to a shooting incident will not be the same as a civilian. The officer will be marching towards the sounds of guns -...

Not shilling for any company, but I think you can get the LE discount as a retired officer. Also, you can buy all the bits separate if you want or buy other bits separate - I got a 4' ETD from them just a few days ago, just to add to my kit.

I was at Scheels in Chandler, AZ, yesterday, and they still had plenty of everything, including primers, but the cheapest primers were $79.99 for all Remington varieties and $89.99 for all CCI versions. Winchester varied between 80 and 95 bucks. Also, they had black powder caps finally...

Admittedly number 10s, but there were several Remington #10s hanging from the peg at Scheels in Chandler AZ, for $9.99 per 100. Just an FYI.

I bought the conversion cylinder because I felt like it. I'd already owned the revolver for a bit of time; One day I thought to myself, "Self,", (and I knew it was me because I recognized my voice and I was wearing this week's underwear), I said, "Self, lets explore black powder...

It wears a red cross patch now, red on black.

So here is an ankle IFK. https://www.narescue.com/references-and-publications/tactical-medical-kits/every-day-carry-edc-ankle-trauma-kits.html Wound gauze, a C.A.T., twin HyFin chest seal and gloves for $144. Or you get the high speed one for almost $190 that replaces the gauze with Combat...

The Lee 200 grainer is what i cast up a bunch of, and am just waiting on my order of SGL lube to show up on Monday to start getting some ready for a range trip.

I have a Red Cross on it now.

North American Rescue offers a number of IFKs, including an ankle version. I actually carry a home made IFK all the time. The cell phone goes in the unzipped outer pocket, and I think in 4 years of wearing it, I've been asked about it maybe four times? Most of the time people just see the phone...
