    Mold in my vault

    Where does that catch basin of your dehumidifier drain into? If it doesn't frain outside the vault, that's your problem. Also, lowering the moisture level in your vault actually encourages water vapor to migrate through the concrete. Years ago I sprayed the walls and floor of our basement with...

    My new lube!

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIEZ58wnUyM Some of these tests can be faked by the tester's arm.....how slow and long the tester pushes, etc. But this Motorkote guy uses weights so he's not touching the test equipment. Here's a possible faked test. Read the comments afterwards...

    Why aren't we better using facts to counter the Antis' arguments?

    There are "studies", yes, and too often, the expected results are paid for like, say, with the global warming cult's studies. But there's also hard data to draw from like the FBI's stats that show gun crime has dropped in half since 1990 while gun ownership has more than doubled during the same...

    Why aren't we better using facts to counter the Antis' arguments?

    Re: the Constitution, for your pal who suggested YOU go back and read what it says about militias. Here is the absolute best "explanation" I've yet seen. https://www.billwhittle.com/firewall/your-second-amendment Your points about education, and those who do not wish to be educated, are right...

    Budget-friendly, Improvised weapons/tools/devices

    The Head (brand), "Arthur Ashe" model was one of the first composite "sandwich" design racquets produced. I don't think there was a wood model. Though, certainly not your point. I used one once....a rental, and after wood racquets, it was a revolution.

    Vehicle Gun Storage

    So sorry for your loss. Last year, I got my first new puppy in 67 years and cannot imagine not having her near. She's now 2.3 years old and is a wonderful addition to my family and life. Yes, I try not to spoil her. And yes, she plays me like a fiddle to get treats. She's a Lab and food is...

    Have You Ever Considered Abandoning Carrying a Firearm Because of Your Temperament?

    Have You Ever Considered Abandoning Carrying a Firearm Because of Your Temperament?

    I'll roger that, with an added twist. About the time I started carrying virtually full time, I also have a "passenger" in my car ...... my first puppy in 57 years. I now drive a bit less aggressively, knowing that she's more vulnerable in a crash than I am. I can't imagine life without her...

    Flashlight recommendation

    Define "compact". These are amazing, adjustable, and seem quite well made. And, an incredable bargain. I think I have 5 of them. Never a failure. Very bright. http://tinyurl.com/jkljl5s Uses three AAA batteries. These, IMHO, are the very best rechargable......better than Duracell or other...

    astigmatism options?

    For my latest eye exam, 6 months ago, a tweak was made to my astigmatism prescription, and my accuracy improved quite a bit. The only negative - close up work went downhill slightly to where in certain conditions, I wear weak cheater reading classes. But for all other use, things got better...

    Opinions on the best Hi-Cap pistol in 9mm

    Interesting - thanks. I agree about the safety "wings" as they stick out quite far. Since I converted mine to a G model, which loses the safety. The former safety levers now act as a decocker, and are easy to move the levers. Beretta sells a low profile replacement for stupid amount of $$, so...

    Trump and Paris

    Remember years ago when there was a series of violent rapes happening in Florida? The governor went on TV and advised women to buy a gun and get training on how to use it. Not only did the rapes go away.......all violent crime dropped instantly. Just sayin'....

    Limp wristing

    It's Interesting It's Interesting that the default positions of problem solvers here, focus on Glock grip angles, ammo reloads, this or that, rather that what you admitted to in your original post.......that you fried your forearm muscles past functionality.

    Limp wristing

    "So a couple times a day I do a few hundred grip exercises, until my forearms burn and my hands seize. Is it possible this exercise actually diminished my grip strength sufficiently enough to induce limp wristing." So heck yeah! You're overcooking (pun intended) your forearms. Basic weight...

    LCP carriers - Hollow Point or Ball?

    Must have, IMHO Adding the Hogue grip....the one that is specific to the LCP, is a transformative change, IMHO. Also, changing the recoil spring guide rod to the harder stainless rod, and changing the recoil spring to the 11 LB Wolff spring have been positive changes. All the above additions...

    LCP carriers - Hollow Point or Ball?

    For my LCP Hornady Critical Defense or Hornady Zombie Max (virtually identical, but you get a really cool box) with their plastic insert in the tip of the hollow point - said to not clog the hollow point with clothing, but expands inside. That's what their tests show, so they say.

    Liberals are everywhere these days (learning the truth about shooting)

    First some clarification. Are you a Leftist who likes to be called "Liberal"? A true Liberal, by definition, is fair tolerant, open minded, live and let live. In that sense, a true Liberal is more like a Libertarian. Today's so-called liberals are none of the above characteristics, which is why...
