    CSIs with guns?

    We had a trial in my town a while back where the defendant walked and the prosecuting attorney blamed the "C.S.I. Factor". Gene

    Good breakaway neck lanyard material?

    "Hollow out" a section of para cord about 2" shorter than your bead chain. Run the chain through the para cord and you have the comfort of para cord with a "break away" built in. Works for me. YMMV Gene :)

    Why is .410 considered such a terrible HD load?

    Been there, done that, cylinder choke doesn't work any better at least with the 3 000 buckshot loads. Gene

    Flow of Guns From U.S. to Canada

    The last time I was in Canada the border guard lady asked me if I had any firearms in my vehicle. I told her "yes", she asked, "handguns?", I said "no, shotgun" she asked if it was a sawed of shotgun, I told her no. She then said, "Welcome to Canada, enjoy your stay!". Of course that was in 1977...

    Is Paris Burning -- SHTF yet?

    Question regarding ballistic forensics - tv inspired quesiton

    More or less on topic I think. With finger prints they have to have so many points of comparison to have a match, anybody know if there's a similar protocol for bullets? Gene

    All Gun Owners are Nazi's - So says Law & Order: SVU

    JMHO but the quintessential "Law & Order" episode would show a white male reciting the second amendment while disemboweling a poor minority child. Watched one episode of SVU, that was enough for me. Gene

    BONES: Finally, a pro-gun show!!

    I like "Bones", "Supernatural" I can take or leave. It's about time somebody realized that pro-gun rights people watch TV too. Gene :)

    When Animal Owners Attack

    Slightly OT. Several years ago the mailman was running late in one of our "more interesting" neighborhoods. Local gangbanger threatened to "Pop a cap in his a$$" if he was late again. For the next two weeks everybody on that street had to pick up their mail at the post office while the case was...

    Who here prefers thier inexpensive knives?

    Frost's Swedish Army Knife and Opinels are probably the best "cut for the buck" knives on the market. Just MHO. Gene :)

    Knives Everyone should have

    12" Ontario machete Frost's Mora Swedish Army Knife SAK These 3 will cover pretty much anything I'll ever need a knife for. If you feel the need for a combat knife, the KaBar rounds out my choices. YMMV Gene :)

    most "tricked out" survival pistol?

    Mulliga wrote: "I'd go with a .22 revolver, personally. It's pretty common for a .22 LR casing to get stuck in the chamber of an autoloader." What are you shooting? I've shot a variety of .22 autoloaders over the last 40 years and NEVER had a casing get stuck in the chamber. I have had a...

    Do you still have the gun you learned to shoot with?

    I learned to shoot with a Remington 510 (vintage 1945 just like me!) that my grandfather gave me when I was a kid. I still shoot it in my club's sporter rifle matches. Gene :)

    It's just a flashlight

    I use a Photon II & a Streamlight Scorpion. The Photon for close-in tasks & the Scorpion when I want to "light up the night". I'm going to get one of the lithium cell Twin Task lights eventually. Non-lithium cell lights around my house are merely storage containers for dead batteries. Gene :)

    How to Carry a Boot Knife?

    IIRC the style (100 years ago or so) was pants tucked into the boots. Then a boot knife made some sense. I can envision falling on my butt trying to crouch down, lifting my pants cuff & pulling a boot knife. :rolleyes: Gene
