    Guess that caliber

    .220 Russian?

    silver ring out of a quarter

    I've never seen this before- but I'd love to give it a try. I remember my Granddad working on a buffalo nickle with me when I was a kid. He took a Dremel tool and started grinding away everything that was around the buffalo. We ended up with a pendent. Not nearly as cool as the ring- I...

    Stag Arms Pokes The Pooch

    Dang... sell your company and pay half a million bucks in fines because you didn't keep up with numbers in a notebook. I'm not sure how you get to be that big if your record keeping is that bad.

    Clearing your EDC

    I may find myself at the bottom of a dog pile for this, but mine do not stay loaded at home. And that's because I have kids. They know how to safely handle firearms and that "every one is loaded" but they're not quite strong enough to rack a slide. So my HD pistol sits with an empty chamber...

    RCBS Bench priming tool

    I've had better luck clamping it down to the table with a quick grip... but some still flip over.

    RCBS Bench priming tool

    Nice priming tool- I've got the old, old version that I used for a long time. I'll have to take a picture of it tonight (if I remember). I think it's got $12.00 written on it in pencil- looks like it was from a yard sale or possibly an antique store. I like the bench tool way better than my...

    Any love for the .40?

    Oh- sorry... got it the second time around. No.

    Any love for the .40?

    So would the .40 folks prefer a .44 Mag? Personally, I don't want to stand in front of a 9mm or a .40 I realize that's not a fair standard to judge calibers, but I carry a 9mm and don't think more bullet is necessary. Thankfully, I've never had to find out if 9mm is insufficient.

    Whoa! Looks like Colt may finally joining the 21st century!

    Too soon for a "beating a dead horse" joke? I have to agree that people will buy just because it's a Colt. But I think there are better options at their price point.

    Christmas ideas for the prepper

    I have not seen these lights before- looks pretty awesome for the money. And it looks like something I can put on everyone and in each vehicle without spending a fortune. Of course, the last time I tried to use the flashlight I put in my wife's van, it was dead. And the batteries were...

    Stocking Stuffer ideas

    Not weird at all- I'd be very excited to find one of those in my stocking. Of course, I asked for a new set of gel knee pads for Christmas.

    "Cheap" guns that you have a soft spot for

    Yes- this is what I was going to say... Dad gave me my first center fire pistol and it was a Ruger P90, stainless in .45ACP. Still have it and I'm going to have to get really hungry before I sell that one.

    On cloud 9mm.... Video added

    Just found this thread... My God that is nice. Heck, I was ready to sell 2/3 of everything gun related and buy a Mac after I shot version 1.0! Can't wait to see some videos. I'd better not get serious about shopping for FA- I think the ammo cost might end me.

    So. Much. Fail.

    And he looked like he was shooting from the hip and not really aiming... Not to mention the well known accuracy of an AK ;)

    OATH Ammo Looks Promising

    While it is very possible to liquefy the internals with a gunshot, it takes a hell of a shock wave to do it. Saw my brother in law's doe last year- as soon as he cut up the belly, the insides literally poured out. It was about a 50 yard shot with a .300 Win Mag. There was almost nothing left...

    Official SHOT Show 2016 Thread

    I always look forward to hearing from Dad as he's walking around the show. Never been myself, but maybe once I'm retired and bored, I can take a trip one year. Have fun and keep us up to date on the new cool stuff!

    Econ the Fed raised the interest rate...

    Just shy of 4 acres- I'd looked at houses with up to 10 acres, but frankly the houses weren't that nice and were pretty over priced- which is why they were still on the market. The one we have a contract on is a nice house on a reasonable piece of land. And it's not a (hell of a) long commute...

    DP-12 shotgun, anyone tried one?

    Well, it would make for a hell of a club once the mag tubes run dry.

    S&W M&P 9mm claimed to put officers and public at risk

    I wonder if they're comparing the DA Beretta 92 to the M&P? I assume they'd have to be since the trigger pull in single action should be about the same for either of them. And I found it funny that someone said they pulled the trigger when they meant to turn on the weapon light.

    Econ the Fed raised the interest rate...

    Just did the same thing- locked the rate in today and we'll hopefully be closing by the end of January. Dumping this 120 year old POS that I can't use enough 4 letter words to describe and moving into a nice modern all brick house. I can't wait.
