    How “Prepared” Are You…Really?

    I think you need to define "prepared", it depends on the probable situations. My level of preparededness depends on my perception of the possible threats I percieve there to be. If I am in Iraq, I would be prepared differrently than a day out at the mall. If the gunman pulls out a rifle fifty...

    10/22 refinish

    I have a Ruger 10/22 Silver Reciever, SS Barrel & Black Synch Stock. Well I thought that it would be a good move to flush the action out with a little spray brake cleaner. Well not a good idea, since it removed the paint from the receiver, which now looks like @$%^&*(((. Guess I can go buy...

    Would you carry without your CCW on a trip?

    Taking road trips I usually have a gun with me, packed in the trunk. I am more worried about breakdowns and motels at night that I am of being attacked by motorized zombies while traveling at 65mph on the interstate. When I reach my destination. I stay away from places that don't seem...

    Insurance and Your CCW

    Big oo1 With the way the world is today, I would have to believe that if you lost your life trying to save another, you would also be forfeiting your life insurance. I am sure it would end up in court. To take offensive action, you risk much, make sure it is worth the risk! MGK

    Moly Coated Bullets

    What's the deal with moly coated bullets. A friend gave me 200 Hornady bullets that are moly coated, I normally don't use moly coated bullets. Any problems using them and then going back to non-moly coated jacked bullets? Any effect on the rifle barrel? MGK

    Choosing a Turret Press

    A primer failure rate that high is the result of your technique or something mechanically wrong. I use a Lyman T-mag2, Dillon 550B, Lee single Stage and a hand held Leed press, all can make excellant ammo. After a while you get a "Feel" for the press. When the "Feel" isn't right or the sound...

    Girlfriend: Self Defense issues

    I'd suggest that you just pick up the OC spray and give it to her. no one likes a nag, ultimately she has to see and accept the need for SD tools. It can't be forced on her. Take her shooting and let her get comfortable with firearms, and then let her express a desire to take SD to the next...
