As the title says, I'm looking to turn my SS into a spearhead for an upcoming boar hunt with friends. The knife is the newer model with the new guard design, which in my opinion, would make for a more than suitable boar spear head. I don't want to make it sloppy or just bind it to the side of...

As the title says, I'm looking to turn my SS into a spearhead. I don't want to make it sloppy or just bind it to the side of the shaft or anything like that, so here's what I was thinking. After acquiring a straight, good, haft, I would use a saw slightly thinner than the handle of the SS with...

Alright, can anyone answer any of my questions?

Anyone have the new 590A1 Mariner 6 shot? Are the internals plated with the same rust resistant, high sheen coating? How durable is the Marinecote finish? Any downsides?

Ryan, someone else read up on physics, and interpreted what they read or learned in a different, and admittedly flawed manner. That is still their interpretation of what they read about physics. Just as you can misinterpret a foreign language, and you (your interpretation) is incorrect, that is...

Please don't let this degrade into a debate about your personal interpritation of physics. I just wanted to know if anyone aside from myself had experienced an increase in speed of the dart from .40 to .625

Kinda what I gathered as well. Anyone experience this 1st hand?

I have owned both, and as expected, I progressed from .40 to .625. Now for hunting, (which I never did, due to the poor chance of a humane kill) I know the 625 is better in every way. But for accuracy and velocity, given the same length tube, which caliber has the upper hand? Having used both...

Thanks for the reply. What voltage model was the one you got hit by? How long was it held to your shoulder?

Alright, but aside from any discrepancies of that nature, what's the actual physical quality like? And how could one test the power?

Where did they claim that?

I know the basic deal with stun guns- don't. They don't really work as an effective self defense option. So, I'll say it. I played with a friend's low quality no- name version, for a few minutes, and it was fun, fascinating even, so I'm going to get one. Just as a curiosity. I've stumbled across...

I just recieved a Spyderco Swick in CPM-s30v. Love it so far. I heard Spyderco under hardens their steels. Is this true? What is the hardness of their CPM-s30v? Whats the difference between s30v and CPM-s30v?

I heard that Taurus were on the lower end of the quality spectrum... Is this still the case? I love their designs.

I was set on getting a S&W 629 Classic with a 5 inch barrel, then I read about the apparent and frequent quality control issues with S&W these days. I love the look of the 629 Classic, full underlug... I'm looking for a revolver in 44 magnum, good quality, under $1000, and with the same/ very...
