    New Swiss K31 and a Contact Story!

    I've been procrastinating getting a Swiss Schmidt-Rubin K31 for awhile. I know the supply is drying up, as it must, eventually. Last Saturday I found a decent one- beech stock, not pristine, but not all beat to hell; plenty of dings and a lot of work will need to be done to the handguard to...

    SWMBO's Micro Compact range review.

    As it is now, the names are only available to someone in law enforcement or the legislature who can show good cause to know who has a CHL, contrary to the information in the article (to the best of my understanding). Paul Watler, the person mentioned in the article, is general counsel for...
