    "The Winter War" (Talvisota)

    There are two copies on e-bay right now. One for $15.00 and the other for $20.00. I thought about buying one, but I've bought too much stuff for my roadbike this month. Darn self imposed budgets. Anyway, if anyone's interested...

    GunVault (pistol safe) Questions

    Odd, I haven't really thought about the batteries in mine. I've had it for about 5+ years now and still have the original batteries in it. Makes me wonder if I should replace them. The biggest reason I haven't yet is because I have it bolted under my bed (which weighs about 300 lbs, and...

    Finding Maxpedition gear in the DFW area?

    That was kind of what I figured. I did another google search and found one Army Navy store in Richardson, but the employee didn't know what stock they had. I might try to swing up that way. Also, I don't think CTD carries Maxpedition. At least last time I was there they didn't have it...

    Finding Maxpedition gear in the DFW area?

    Hey, For my birthday my wife wants to get me the new Jumbo Versipack. My multipurpose CHL Holster/manpurse/diaper bag for the baby. Only problem is, I'd like to physically touch the item and compare it to the fatboy (I've never held either, only seen them online) but I have no idea where to...

    MOLON LABE stickers ready-finally!

    Sending an e-mail as well. p.s. I love the CJ. I miss having a real Jeep. The libby is just a glorified grocery getter, but I gotta carry the baby around somehow. Can't wait until she's older and we can rebuild another real Jeep.

    Pics of your carry rig

    Matt, I decided to take a more recent pic for you. Unfortunately it still might not be "broken in" enough for you. Remember not to confuse broken in with hard used. My stuff is broken in, but I take good care of it. I'm currently using the slide because my primary carry holster broke...

    Texas or not Texas

    I grew up out in West Texas and my Grandparents lived in Midland Odessa for a time. I know many people that live out there love it, but I always referred to it as Slowdeatha. I haven't been out there in a while, but since the oil boom isn't booming out there like it was I don't think their...

    Cabelas ???

    The one up here will haggle. I saw a rifle in their used rack I really wanted but told him the price was a bit high. He went and brought out the Blue Book to show me they were under the recommended for that grade, but he thought they could drop it a bit more. I ended up not buying it, but I...

    DIY holster guys - Needles?

    I prefer the diamond shaped awl, but I punch at an angle. To clarify, if you step back and look at the hole is resembles a parallelagram as opposed to a diamond. That allows the stitch to lay nicely and prevent premature wear of te leather between stitches. I also do all my holes first, then...

    Tactical Range Laptop

    JEFNVK, So you like those Averatec laptops? I saw one at Compusa the other day and fell in love with the size of it. It was so small it was almost a pocket PC. I had just never heard of them before. It's one thing to spend $39.00 on a WalMart DVD whose brand you're not familiar with, but...

    Tactical Range Laptop

    Unfortunately that tactical OS doesn't work well with my laptop... Mine is a used Toshiba that I paid $200.00 3 years ago and it's still going strong. Does everything but FPS gaming (sigh). I wish it would die so I could convince my wife to let me get a new notebook. It has paid for itself...

    The deer control "Quiet Shotgun" (7 foot barrel!)

    Cesiumsponge, Paintball guns are not firearms, that's why all the PC types now refer to them as markers. Plus, when I played paintball years ago, I owned a silencer for my paintball gun. It was completely useless as a silencer, but it was an awesome muzzlebrake and helped stabilize the...

    Anyone want a million-dollar 1911?

    Jsalcedo, If the Ivory was here (or consigned to a carrier ship) before June of 1989 with proper documentation then there would be no problem. Depending on who did the work and where (most importantly) would be the question to ask.

    Here's what I almost always carry with me. Sorry, no holster pic with this one: I need to get a new pic though. Apparently I've posted it before... :scrutiny:

    Best caliber for a lever-action "trunk gun"

    If I were to use a lever gun as a trunk rifle, I'd probably go with the .30-30 because it's a pretty logical choice. You can find ammo for it everywhere. Heck, where I grew up they even sold it in the grocery store! My trunk gun, even though I don't have a trunk, is my Scout rifle in...

    Oh snap... help with Rem 7400

    I really don't have anything to add, I've just never seen a thread that started "Oh Snap". I felt compelled to read it. Only other time in my life where I've heard that phrase was in the movie Zoolander.

    Retrofit your GunVault with a better lock!

    How did I miss this thread the first time around??? Matt, I'd be interested in an upgrade as well. Not an urgent thing for me. I only place my pistol in there when I'm at home and my daughter is about (14 month olds get into EVERYTHING!!!), but it would be nice if the need arose for longer...
