    Check the dang scope mount first before you waste an hour!

    My uncle hunted deer for three years with the scope mount on his shotgun so loose that it wiggled. Those were some meatless years for him.

    Kahr K9 - oldie but a goodie

    If you round off the corners of the grip tape it looks really nice. I did that on my K40.

    Kahr K9 - oldie but a goodie

    I have a K40 and MK40 Elite, both with night sights. The K40 was an earlier model so I replaced the long trigger with an Elite trigger. I put a piece of grip tape on the front strap of the K40 grip and the MK40 has a Hogue slide on rubber grip with the palm swells. I love shooting both and...

    What's the one knife that got away and now you regret it?

    Cold Steel Trail Master. I came close to buying one many times but never have. The prices keep going up and up and up.

    And this is why you can't have nice things

    The only reason for someone to borrow anything is so they can ruin it or lose it. I've gotten pretty good at telling people no. Try telling your boss they can't borrow something. That's always fun. I don't even like handing a knife over to someone to "look at." They are likely to do...

    Need help, mag carrier for single stack .40 mag.

    I've been wearing a thick 1.75" belt but I've lost a lot of weight. A 1.5" belt will hold my pants up now. It's always a hassle finding stuff for 1.75".

    Need help, mag carrier for single stack .40 mag.

    That Concealment Express looks like a good one. They have some good photos of their product. Some sites don't like to give edge on views of their products. I do have a 1.5" belt I haven't worn in a while.

    Need help, mag carrier for single stack .40 mag.

    Can anyone help me find a mag carrier for a Kahr K40 mag? It's a single stack .40 mag. I'll be wearing it under an untucked shirt so I'm looking for: injected molded plastic or kydex outside the waist band belt clip or paddle that holds it tight to body made for .40 single stack mag, no...

    Getting ready to purchase a Cold Steel Blowgun. Seeking advice?

    Get the big bore. You can sharpen these darts real nice. These darts hit HARD! I got the longest one piece (5') blowgun but if I got another one I would get a two piece if it were longer. I had to start using a piece of 2x10 with four dots on it for a target. The plastic cone on these darts...

    Your favorite handgun

    Kahr K40. I took to .40 S&W early with the Firestar M40 but when I found the K40 it suited me better with the striker and no manual safety. Its comfortable to shoot and handles recoil better than the Firestar. The Firestar also had quality control issues with the safety and with some of the...

    California Kahr P380

    I like the Kahrs but in the store I couldn't get the P380 to point right. The sights just wouldn't line up naturally for me so I passed.

    Anyone carry a NA 22 mag as a backup

    I sometimes carry mine as a backup with the .22 WMR cylinder. I shot some .22LR that was subsonic that had a shortened case and a longer, heavier bullet. Those things tumbled out of such a short barrel. I had a target full of long holes in it.:what: I like the idea of the Black Widow...

    Eye and ear protection "recommended"

    When I was a kid I asked my dad several times for ear plugs. He pshawed it and said the ringing would go away. Guess what, it hasn't. I have hearing loss and tinnitus in both ears but the right one is worse, maybe because we shot rifles and shotguns and my right cheek was on the stock and...

    Concealed Carry Permit Hassles (or not?) based on State

    Every time I go to renew the clerk's office has moved and I have to find it again. The place for fingerprint's moved once, also. Then it takes well over two months before I'm notified that my license is ready. I apply early. This time they tell me that I can't apply until six months before...
