I've had a Harrington and Richardson M949 or "49er" for over 30 years. A simple and rugged .22 DA revolver that looks like a SA. Slow to load, a bit of a heavy trigger but a sweetheart of a kit type gun. Matt, my son, has her now. BTW is anyone has the factory grips for the 949 I'd like...

”Perhaps to deliver a crushing blow to a target with the spine of the khukuri in a situation where you don't want to chop into it? I'm just speculating here; I don't know knife fighting.” Brian, I may have misunderstood tradrockrat’s statement: ”But you can use it with the underhand grip...

Tradrockrat, Thanks for the compliment on the article, means a lot coming from someone with your background. Now for a bit of milieu regarding the treatise if I may, essentially I attempted to describe the way the Ghurka use their weapon, which is surprisingly very basic. As with any weapon...

KB, If I understand you correctly, you are comparing the hammer and/or saber grip to a reverse grip correct? (Bear with me here, it’s early and I had only one cup of coffee so far) Everyone has their way and I will simply give my opinion here, which is neither right nor wrong. The two...

Should anyone be interested, here's a hyperlink to the PDF version of the article Combat Usage of the Nepalese Khukuri

Bflobill, as for me, I mean standardized within the family unit. So we're all on the same page if and when the time comes.

You are most welcome Checkman. If you would care to discuss that part of the training with Ondra I can put you in touch with him. [email protected]

Thanks LR.... The intent of Ondra, in writing it, and myself, in posting it, was education not endorsement... :)

Thanks YM for your informative reply. I think I’ll mosey over and check out some of his work.

Byron, Heck, I confuse myself at times, specially before the first cup of Joe in the Ante Meridiem hours. Nevertheless I thought the title was explanatory…”Standardized Equipment & Training”. Do not forget the training (in all areas) as all members should know the basics. This way, when in dire...

Stahlgrau “Show problems with retention shooting and why the gun must be canted to the side.” Why must the gun be canted? The reasons are, to the best of my knowledge, so the pistol action is not caught up in the garment and, with revolvers, there the possibility of a burn. Personally, I...

Well I came across this fairly interesting site and I thought I’d pass it on to you all… Steve’s Knife Sharpening Likewise, I have wanted one of these gadgets for years now (price was always the factor). Does anyone have one and, if so, your opinion please. Edge Pro

...now if I can just get Matt to come to the land of cheese and beer...

Most do nowadays, no need not too...

30 cal, I wonder how many of us feel somewhat the same way I know I do. Then again, I do not see anything wrong with having ones collection being separate from their protective or survival battery. However, the money issue is the only reason I think, “if I could do it all over again”...

Lee, Will do but I cant figure out what these morons are trying to accomplish? I got hit by a couple and what a waste of time...

I couldn't resist....He hit my place too...

I thought it was a very well written piece and cleared up many misconceptions. This is why I though you’ all would enjoy the read. One can definitely see the Grant-Taylor and Fairbairn influence. That taken a few steps further and it is probably not a bad system for Anti-Terr or bodyguard work.

That's true Matt plus is was origionally developed as an anti-terrorist program. Everyone gets all hung up about the Cond. 3 carry issue. That is really nonsense as 1) with modern Da automatics they carry C1 and 2) it was more of a training aid as they had so many types or pistols and so many...
