    I would expect that answer from a Trader! :) Always looking to trade up.

    I used to have a Facemask account. I used it to check up on prospective employees before I hired them back in the day when I was still working. Very useful for that. Anyway, the first thing I did when I retired was shut it off. I kept getting messages from old girlfriends looking to spark...

    Jelly Roll Pardoned

    Second post about this Jelly Roll fella. I still can't name a single song he sings. But from the picture, I would not hire him so I am glad he found gainful employment somewhere. Color me a red white and blue curmudgeon, but when I am in the car I listen to talk radio or Beach Boys CD's. Never...

    HELP Newby Cleaning Lubing 45 mil-spec for 1st time

    Ballistol is great. I have waterproofed boots with it and cleaned plastic house plants. And non-toxic is a plus. Almost forgot about that stuff!

    Black Friday stuff

    Well done! I can only assume you are not married, as the War Department at my house would never let me go that overboard all at once. I love her, but sometimes I miss the bachelor life. I got this quite by accident on Black Friday and am still trying to find the right time to show it to the...

    Building a Backwoods Carry Kit

    Agree. Everyday carry needs to include a good knife and a means to make fire. I live by that even if I am not anywhere near the woods. But the little 22/32 is so light it is forgotten on the belt. The two or four inch are great!

    What are you doing right now??

    If was in charge of NASA, the ground crew in Planet of the Apes makeup would greet every astronaut coming home.....

    Wright Brothers at Kitty Hawk: Hunters and Marksmen

    Of course they were drawn towards firearms. They are cool machines. Like airplanes, cars and motorcycles. Lots of crossover between bike guys/car guys/gun guys.

    HELP Newby Cleaning Lubing 45 mil-spec for 1st time

    I use Wilson Combat Grease for carry guns, as the oil transfers to clothing easier on an inside the waistband holster, about the only way I can hide a 1911. Obviously, oily clothes are to be avoided. I have used it for decades. I like the syringe applicator. I also see that MidwayUSA no longer...

    HS-Custom Garrison 4.25″ 9mm

    If a guy could only have one pistol...this might be it except for the caliber. Along with a 22 Rimfire Marvel Conversion Kit. I am on a minimalist kick lately fueled by a friend of mines son. But a Garrison in .45 acp might well indeed be that one answer.

    Truck reflashing

    The way I see it, it is just a computer thing. If the truck runs great now, NEVER mess with it. If it starts acting up and you can't find a cause...well at that point take it in for a re-flash.

    Daffy Zone…..

    And THAT is where I went wrong. For decades it was a glass of Scotch in each hand.....

    Building a Backwoods Carry Kit

    I admit I am a gear Junkie. I took great pains as a child building a survival kit that would fit into a Prince Albert Tobacco Tin. And yet, my father and I never had to spend an unplanned night in the woods. But in my mind I was always ready! As an older, perhaps more realistic guy now (but...

    NRA magazines to stop printing

    I know this is the future. But I hate it. I have a book or magazine on my lap when I am watching TV. That is comfortable for me, watching and reading during commercials or the slow parts of the movie. If I have a screen in front of me, I am focused on that, posting messages, looking up photos...

    crazy prices on used guns

    350 Rem mag is great black bear or wild hog medicine. In a light and quick handling carbine, exactly what was needed. Too bad folks didn't see it back then. For North America, a .308, a .223 and a 350 Remington Magnum covers all the bases. And with the bonus of all the rifles on the same...

    crazy prices on used guns

    Good job on the 600s! The prototype Scout Rifle. And you had the foresight to get the two most desirable calibers. Well played my 442 driving friend!

    Time for a discussion on performance enhancers

    I hear about a sad case like this and ask myself "What if you had died at 30?". Good Lord. I knew nothing by then. Now that I am twice 30, I am so grateful that I was granted the opportunity to learn so much....

    What have you bought firearms related in the last 48 hours?

    Ozarker, I know you meant the real Cobra, but I will post a picture of my toy car anyway because every thread is better with more pictures. And the side pipes kinda zipppppp.

    SA Emissary AOS 4.25 vs SA TRP CC AOS - Range Trip! 17 Dec 25

    Good shooting, as usual! Have to admit, I don't care for a rail on a 1911 because I am too old to change from the Harries Technique and I don't like the look. But I can't help but wonder if that extra steel/alloy makes the frame more rigid and increases accuracy. Someone with a Ransom Rest...

    Dumbazz shoots porch pirates in Georgia

    I have to admit as mad as a thief makes me there is nothing I own that is worth me taking someone's life over, however wasted that life had been up to the point of robbing me. Having said that, myself and my wife are not property and I would defend them to my dying breath. Which will be with an...
