I made up one of these a couple of years ago after the earthquakes hit VA. Mine has a stainless Taurus 357, with a 2 1/2" or 3" ported barrel. I have 12 rounds in the kit, along with a cheaper nylon holster. I vacuum sealed the gun and the ammo separately, then stuck all of that in a "dry...

Awesome! I thought it would work if I was patient enough. Thanks

I did a search, couldn't find much. Seems like most bolt handles are TIG welded when they are cut or customized. I don't have a TIG ($$$), but I do have a MIG. If you were to properly use heat sinks, both pastes and plugs, could you use a MIG? If you welded a tack, let it cool, weld, cool...

If you have no emotional connection to this gun, you might be better off selling (this should fetch a nice price) and getting a newer, lighter carry piece. You should be able to buy a gun and a holster or two for what you get out of that DS. Just my opinion-I have about 10 of those, but carry...

I would want something with some "thump" to it out past 250 yds. Have the shotgun, and an AR, just want more of a "tactical" bolt.

Maybe I'm a little crazy, maybe I'm rationalizing, but I am seriously considering trading my very accurate Winchester 30-06 for a newer compact 308. I want to stay with a bolt, I don't hunt anymore, and would like a more compact lightweight rifle. the '06 is a Winchester 70 Ranger, very basic...

Here's the other thing: they have a Colt LWT Commander, but it is blued. I LOVE the look of blued Colts, but I am concerned about how the finish on the frame would hold up to carry use. My thought is that both the natural aluminum finish and the blue finish will wear, it will be just less...

I have a Stainless Colt LWT Commander (XSE) on order and it has been on order since mid January. The shop doesn't seem to have a clue when one might come in, and this is a fairly large shop, with 2-300 long guns on display and probably 100 handguns in the case. I don't know if Colt's demand is...

Apparently, everybody wants one! I have a lightweight commander XSE on order for the last 8 weeks at a fairly large shop-they can't get their hands on one.

Why do you need night sights on a gun that comes with a laser????

A local store started carrying 5.11 gear and clothing, so I stopped by to check it out. I thought they had some good looking stuff in their catalog, surely I could find something I couldn't live without. Well, they definitely had some cool stuff, didn't quite have the cash for what I wanted...

Yes, vehicles are tested and run at the factory, and not many people would buy one without a test drive. Most test drives are under 20 miles, and most new car purchases have less than 100 miles on them, still sold as new. Now, the car that the owner or salesman has driven for 6 months to "test...

I guess it's a question of perspective. Buyer=used, Seller="test fired":) If it is new, why did he feel that he needed to "check it out"?

Where's the Queen?

I bought all he had, problem was, there was only 2 left.:D
