    Gun stuff

    Knee or hip replacement? My wife has had both knees replaced and each time they sent her home the same day. Be sure to do the rehab physical therapy religiously otherwise the surgery is for naught. If it is a hip they say recovery is easier. Prayers for a fast recovery.

    The Gun and Knife Picture Show

    Bazoo said " Do a give a way ever once in a while! Lol. I don’t have that many but I know it can be a lot more overwhelming because knives are so small. You can have a hundred+ in a shoebox." I have given some away, sold some and still have way too many. I have a bunch of folders, a box of...

    The Gun and Knife Picture Show

    I like guns and knives too, but I now have more knives than I know what to do with. My wife's cousin was a knife fanatic and I inherited his collection when he passed. I have everything from cheap NRA giveaways to CRKTs, Spidercos, Bucks, Benchmades, ZTs and even the Buck 110 he carried in nam...

    Lateral movement to escape line of fire

    It would seem prudent, that if you decide to move laterally, that you move toward your dominant (gun) side. Otherwise an off center hit could disable your draw and ability to return fire.

    Guns You Should Have Bought When You Had The Chance, And Now Regret Not Buying

    My son bought three of the Swedish Mausers back then. He sold one to me for my wife and he eventually sold the 2 that he had. (not a smart move) My wife will not make the same mistake; hers is all numbers matching, including the barrel bands, I recently saw its twin in a LGS priced at $1K.

    Information on top tier 22 LR ammunition brands

    I tested what ammo I had in stock against each other. Eley Sport, Norma Tac 22, CCI Green Tag, CCI Mini-Mag, Federal Rifle Match (very old stock, made in England?), and Eley Bench Rest Gold. The Eley Bench Rest Gold is very old stuff I got from a college rifle coach, and I don't think it is sold...

    Information on top tier 22 LR ammunition brands

    Shooting a CZ Precision Varmint Trainer with Manners stock. I inherited the rifle and didn't think I would have much use for it as I am mostly a casual shooter and hunter, and this is pretty much a bench rifle. Then I started shooting this .22 bench match at the club I belong to and really...

    Information on top tier 22 LR ammunition brands

    I have recently gotten into shooting a 22 bench match and have just been shooting what I have on hand, mostly Eley Sport. As my skill increases (assuming it does), I would like to move into better target ammunition. I am familiar with Eley & CCI and have heard of Lapua and SK as better grades...
