    Box of Truth. Rock salt...

    I was at work one day and the talk turned to getting shot with rock salt, one of the newer guys lifts his shirt and shows us his upper back all criss-crossed with a web of scars, when he was younger he got caught stealing radios from a junk yard and got shot as he went over the fence, cured him...

    I'd been wearing glasses since my 20's, (I'm 59), In 2008 I went to Lazic Plus and had it done, my regular eye doctor did the procedure but also did everything else so I decided to go to someone who only did lazic, I figured practice makes perfect, the procedure took 10 minutes total for both...

    Hanging handguns from the safe door

    I did the same as steven58 but used 2" hooks about 4-5" apart and set my guns with the hammer down like a V , barrel in one hook and grip in the other, they won't move and are easy to grab or put in.

    How important is indexing your flash suppressor...?

    One of the things about an improperly indexed flash suppresor is that if you ever shoot it prone in the dirt you'll get more dirt from the blast in the air, if you look at your birdcage you'll notice that a portion is solid (no slots) that keeps the blast directed to the sides and uppwards...

    DIY Gun Case

    I was pretty much in your shoes when I came up with this idea, I bought some used Samsonite briefcases (I find them at fleamarkets), sturdy plastic with good latches, take/cut out the divider and anything that's not needed inside, I used 1 1/2" gray foam and stuffed it on both sides, just set...

    Help with 1911 while hunting wearing a backpack

    I also hunt with a backpack and have always used a cross draw, stays out of the way when I sling my rifle on my shoulder and is always handy to get to, even while sitting taking a rest.

    Glock 23 info needed!!!!!

    My carry is a G23, I bought a G22C without shooting one first, the compensated barrel made the gun really loud without doing much for the recoil, it started giving me a flinch so I sold it. I wanted the full size thinking that it would be easier to control the recoil but I didn't notice any...

    What law(s) would gun owners like to see in place?

    To the OP, what you write is exactly what the "no guns crowd" think, the "will you let just anyone" argument. That argument makes it look like all kinds of "crazy gun nuts" will automatically pick up the largest, most destructive, weapons or ordinance ever conceived and walk around looking for...
