    Do 22 conversion make sense anymore?

    I have .22 kits for a 1911, the Colt Ace top end, a CZ Kadet top end and an M 261 for AR rifles. I like the idea of using the same gun, not one that's pretty much like it for training. The CZ kit fits my HD gun that wears a laser, it would be costly to add that to a practice only gun, the AR...

    My Newest Project - Gun Room Door

    I am planning a house build soon and a gun /safe room is part of the plan. It seems the best way to get it done is tilt wall, pour the walls on the slab, stand them up and tie together then set another poured- on- slab lid on top, bolted together on the inside. ( My brother built million of...

    Has anyone ordered or received an order from Eric at HBE leather?

    I have only good things to say about Erik. It took a long time to get the holster I wanted from him, as he warned, the price was in line with others. After I got it and used it a couple of days I realized it wasnt quite what I thought I wanted, in spite of being exactly what was ordered. He...

    here is my daily load of gear Colt Defender in a Comptac, Surefire clone and a Cold Steel Ti lite. Yes the finish on the Colt is a horrible attempt at polishing, that was why I got on the cheap. Doesnt bother me much, anyone have any recs for an alloy finish that holds up well? Or should I...

    Walther PPS - finaly made my choice, here's my review

    Boba said Any idea how much the IWB custom holsters would be or should I just google it? Like I said, my Galco P220 Compact holster actually works amazingly well. Aside from being about a half inch or so longer than the PPS, it fits like it was designed for the PPS...

    What happened to the Spanish gunmakers?

    There were a number of Spanish makers of motorcycles up into the 70's. Several were highly regarded and well made machines. For reasons I dont know, they all faded away. Perhaps govt protectionist policies, coupled with the onslaught of the Japanese brands. Same thing happened to all the...
