    Mayhap plastic is not so fantastic?

    The key with things like bins (or any product to a certain degree) is the factory needs to sell more product to make a profit. Have you ever heard the phrase "planned obsolescence"? In my business we count on the fact that nothing lasts forever.

    Unknown Person Trying To Get In Your Bubble

    aarondhgraham said In fact, he's the one who came up with this debatable color coding system,,, Which by the way does nothing to enhance ones awareness,,, It simply codifies a common terminology,,, So it's easier to discuss. I disagree with this to certain degree in that when I think of...

    mutt deterrent

    I thought about that but I was unsure of how easy it would be to get out. I may have to experiment with it.

    mutt deterrent

    Because my version is free, and usually all you have to do is show them the stick and they run. You cannot do that with bear spray.

    mutt deterrent

    I am looking for advice regarding "nightstick" style pieces of wood. I am trying to lose weight and part that entails cycling. When my wife and I walk in our neighborhood I carry a shovel handle for a mutt deterrent. I was thinking of making a shorter version to wear in a "holster" strapped...

    belts

    OK. Perfect. When you make yours, what features do you design into them? (reinforced with kydex, double/ triple leather, extra stitching, width?)

    belts

    I carry IWB at about 3:30, I am 6'1 and weigh about 320. I love my holster but I am extremely displeased with my belt. I would like your input as to what to look for in a "good" belt. The main issue I have is that the belt (not a gun belt) likes to roll or slide when I get up. I do not want...

    sights for old eyes

    I am having issues with 3 dot sights. Red dot will not work for me since this is my CC gun. Do any of you have experience with the Hienie straight 8 or the Big Dot style sights? I have also thought about recoil spring laser but I am not sure about it. This is on a Glock by the way and...

    glock diagnosis

    "Is it failure to extract the spent casing from the chamber of failure to eject the casing from the gun?" It leaves it in the chamber. (like it never even tried to pull it out) That is why I am leaning toward the extractor. BTW, are there other parts I should go ahead and replace since I have...

    glock diagnosis

    Could someone help me confirm my diagnosis? Gen 2 Glock G22 40cal After 2 or 3 shot I am getting a failure to eject. I had someone else shoot it to make sure it is not me and got the same results. I am leaning more toward a bad extractor rather than a spring issue but I have thought...

    State of Ohio question.

    My 21 year old son got pulled over for not stopping completely. He advised the trooper and gave his permit with his license. He was then advised by the trooper that carrying with one in the chamber is a felony. He was given a ticket and let go. Do they just make it up as they go or have we...
