    How do bad guys react if you aim a laser sight at them?

    It's not a one size fits all question. Depends on the Bad Guy. Some BGs just get pissed that they lost the drop on you but others freak out when the gun barrel and laser are on them.

    SxS Shotgun for clay and upland birds

    The above is true, the AyA that my brother bought in mid 90s was approximately $700 and then he put another $200 plus shortening the barrel and tuning it up. I have a 20 ga. AyA Matador which I believe is the lowest grade for AyA and it has gone up considerably. I also agree that it will be...

    Smith and Wesson Knives

    I had a S&W folder for almost 20 yrs. It was chinese made and held a great edge. Post retirement, I was sorting out me kit and somehow the knife got lost in the garage and most likely thrown away. It had sentimental value even though I considered it somewhat ugly.

    I regret not buying a used Victorinox/Mauser pocket knife at the Gun Show 8 yrs back. The seller wanted $40 for it but he had an attitude so I walked. They are great knives and I have a couple and they fetch $150-200 now.
