    Why is my leather holster doing this?

    Addendum, in acknowledgement of some comments that were on point... Yes, if you burnish down the nap, it can eventually loosen up again later, if you frequently draw and holster. Yes, a lined holster is the absolute answer to this type of problem.

    Why is my leather holster doing this?

    Wow! Lots of bad advice here on the care and feeding of leather holsters. You do not want to soften the leather with conditioners, oils, Vaseline,etc. As someone else mentioned... that is for boots and belts. You want to stiffen the leather and lock down the nap. I use Gum Tragacanth, a...

    knife question

    Sounds like that knife would be considered a switch-blade. AFAIK they are illegal in most areas except for LEO's and other First Responders. I think you can check your State knife laws on www.packing.org

    A Great SHTF Radio...

    I just recently did my own research on this... The Eton ARC FR400 (Red Cross) was my first pick from my on-line research. It has nearly every feature one can get, except SW, and sadly... no solar power. It even comes with a nylon carrying case, but in real life, it just did not compare in...

    Emergency flashlights: what's comparable to Inova, but better? (Fenix L0P?)

    Fenix LOP I bought four Fenix LOP's. One for myself and three for gifts. One was DOA. I hope that it is a case of DOA or live forever... I certainly love this little light. It is brighter than my Surefire E1e, and has better beam quality. The Fenix LOP is almost exactly the same...

    Something Like an AR15

    California Legas AR Here's a Bushmaster top-loading 10-rd magazine AR. They say it's CA legal. http://www.bushmaster.com/shopping/Carbon15/azc-c15rm4ft.asp Here's a DPMS single-shot that may be CA legal but I don't know. http://www.dpmsinc.com/specialty_rifles.asp

    Pellet Pistols

    You have two basic ways to go... 6mm or .177 You can go with AirSoft (6mm plastic BB's) or .177caliber pellets/BB's. I have both and they each have their pluses and minuses. You can shoot either one in your garage. AirSoft will do less damage indoors, you could actually shoot it in your...

    Las Vegas Range Day

    John... I don't believe that there is any kind of scam going on. I don't know how they run their CCW classes but their email and phone would be working. I am wondering if you signed up with an independent instructor who does not actually work for ASS. If so, he may use a "classroom" off...

    Las Vegas Range Day

    Well, as things turn out, a buddy of mine bought a couple of guns from another friend a month ago and he wants to go to the range on Sunday. I have been telling him that I would go with him for a month now. Anyway, our only choice is American Shooter's. Like 444, it is not my favorite...

    Cameras

    Here is another idea. Perps usually disguise themselves, at the very least with a hat, or hood, and sunglasses. My thinking is this... you know when you see a tape played on the news when they are looking for the perp and asking people to call in with information? Wouldn't it help if you had...

    Las Vegas Range Day

    Low Bore Axis 9mm.

    What do you want, that the Steyr doesn't have? I love mine... it it awesome. It shoots great, has 14 rd capacity and takes all of five seconds to disassemble (if I am taking my time) :D

    Las Vegas Range Day

    Okay, how about this... It looks like it will not be possible for everyone to get together because of schedules, location and favorite ranges. I would love to go to Desert Sportsman's but there is no way for me to do it, so here's my idea... When you have a plan to go to the range, post...

    Las Vegas Range Day

    Vegas Range Day Hey, this is great. What day of the week are we talking about? I am only available on Wed or Thurs. If it is on one of those days, I prefer Discount over all the others. The ventilation is horrible at American but great at Discount (my fav). Well, if it's not Wed or...

    researching for awhile and need personal opinions

    If you like the Beretta 92 and it is in your price range, I think you should go buy it at the next opportunity. You chose a good weapon. Of course there are many other good weapons out there but why would I want to suggest something else when you already like the Beretta. I like Sig and H&K a...

    Recommend a Pocket Auto

    The Kahr PM9 is one of the sweetest pocket 9mm's that you can get. Not only is it one of the smallest and lightest pocket auto's, it shoots great... and that counts as much or more than the other qualities.
