    bush wacker

    Joneb, I really like Scandinavian knives, and scandi grinds in particular. However for a "Bush Whacker"? Not so much. I prefer a more robust edge, such as a convex. This thread has got looking at Parangs again. May just have to order a couple Bidor Parangs, for my son and myself. Put them...

    bush wacker

    I know what you mean by a bush whacker. I've looked at the same type item. For me it's something between a Mora and a machete. Only in my part of the world I don't need a machete. I eventually went with a Kukri, made to my specs. Sort of a large knife/hatchet stand in. As much as I like...

    How many guys carry at least 1 knife?

    I always have a SAK Tourist in my EDC wallet. In addition ... While working or other wise being busy. I carry a Spyderco Salt 1 with a serrated blade. I cut a lot of cardboard and paper/plastic air bags. This is the first Spyderco knife I've owned. I never really understood the big funny hole...

    Favorite guns to shoot with your kids

    Ruger 10/22 with 16" carbon fiber tension barrel, Blackhawk! adjustable stock, red dot optic and a bag full of 25rd mags. My wife is 4'-11", I'm 6'-2" and the kids are, at any given point, somewhere in between. This gun fits us all, is reliable, light weight and fun to shoot. I make 'em load...

    LCR 3-inch Review

    Ok, this is pretty cool. Make it a 8-9 shot .22lr and I'm getting one. I'd also really like a 3" LCR (not X) with fixed sights, in .357 mag (even though I'd only run .38spl through it). I suspect I'll like this grip a lot better. This is a great all around gun. IF you want small and light...

    Did you consolidate handgun cartridges?

    I've consolidated 4 calibers down to 2. 9mm for carry and .357/.38 for recreational shooting and "woods" carry (for my wife and I). I could easily make .357/.38 work for everything. My primary reason is reloading. It's nice to only have to stock for 3 different loads for 2 cartridges. If I was...

    10 mm

    I love 10mm. I have no use for it in a wheel gun. The only reason I could justify it would be IF I only loaded for one cartridge but, wanted both platforms. I like rimmed in a revolver and rimless in an auto. I know people compare 10mm to .41 mag. I think it's closer to .357 mag loaded to its...

    Who makes your favorite functional holsters?

    I know they're not as fancy as many mentioned here. But, I like Remoras for day to day IWB. They just work and they're cheap. For anything else? Stephen over at RKBA gets all my business. He's great to work with, his prices are great and he makes great stuff.

    Alien Gear IWB review

    Thanks for the review. I'm considering their 2.0 version. It's made with neoprene instead of leather.

    hybrid IWB comfort around 0300?

    I kind of like the TDI. Washington doesn't have preemption, as regards knife laws, In many places I go, fixed blades are not legal.

    hybrid IWB comfort around 0300?

    I doubt I could get as much forward cant as I prefer. It's the new Alien Gear "Cloak 2.0" I'm thinking about. It's got a neoprene backer, instead of leather. I'd really like the Stealth Gear Onyx. However, $100+ is a lot to spend on an experiment.

    hybrid IWB comfort around 0300?

    I really like the remora. It's comfortable, at least for little guns. But you know how it is. Always looking for something new. I'm 6'-2" and around 240#. About 20# I could stand to loose. I wear a 36" to accommodate the IWB. I might even be slightly forward of 0300? Because of the strong...

    hybrid IWB comfort around 0300?

    I'd like to try the hybrid because of the large backer. In the theory that it avoids pressure points. I've had quality all leather IWB'S in the past. Ultimately don't like what heavy sweating, 16-18 hours a day, 6-7 days a week, does to leather. Now that there are synthetic backed hybrids...

    hybrid IWB comfort around 0300?

    I've been using Remora's for a couple years now. I like them, they're comfortable and affordable. I EDC a little single stack nine. I've found I like a VERY STRONG forward cant. With the pistol around 3 o'clock (the rear of the slide closer to 2:30 and the muzzle around 3:30). I like this...

    Will ruger come out with a 3 inch lcr

    A 9 shot LCRX in .22lr with a 3" barrel and adjustable sights. Now that would be a dandy kit gun.

    I've come to a conclusion.......

    When I started carrying, almost 20 years ago, I could do AWIB. Using a S&W 640 and weighing 200-210 pounds, at 6'-2". Now at 40 I weigh around 250 pounds and AWIB is way to uncomfortable. I like the new single stack nines, IWB, strong side (RH), EXTREME forward cant, around 2:30-3:30, with...

    Feedback on Stoeger Coach Gun Supreme?

    I've had two Stoeger coach guns. A standard and later a supreme, both double trigger and 12 Guage. I liked them, the Stoeger stock happens to actually fit me very well. They area decent quality, for the price. If they happen to fit you. I found I really didn't utilize the interchangeable...

    Thoughts on the S&W M&P Shield

    I like mine, I almost wish I'd held out a little longer. I think I would have preferred the new variation, without thumb safety. That said, I have no issues with the safety. 1911 "muscle memory" works out just fine. I Need to get around to installing some Big Dots. I also wish Crimson...

    What's Your Pick for POCKET CARRY??

    That's my only problem with the Seecamp. I want FMJ out of little .32 mouse guns. Preferably Fiocchi 73gr FMJ.
