    TSA Precheck

    My wife and I usually fly four times a year, so we decided to get the TSA precheck to make going through the airport security line a bit quicker. The process was easier than I thought it would be. We filled out the online application and setup an appointment at the nearest TSA/Clear center for...

    New Eyes and Sight Alignment

    I recently had cataract surgery on my eyes and my trip to the gun range was disappointing. Because the surgery has me far-sighted, I can't get a good focus on the sight alignment. I need to practice a lot more with my new eyes or perhaps get prescription shooting glasses. Right now I'm...

    CCW Renewal

    I renewed my Missouri CCW yesterday, it was easy peasy. The only tough part was the 44 mile roundtrip to the Sheriff’s office in the county seat, and the $50 fee for renewal. The CCW is good for 5 years so the next time it needs to be renewed I’ll be 84 years old…God willing. Since Missouri is...

    The Importance of Firearm Ownership

    The small population of Greenland is basically unarmed, and they are dependent on Denmark for their national security. Last night, the President of the United States threatened to take Greenland “one way or another.” If I were the Prime Minister of Greenland, I would tell every citizen to arm...

    Honor Guard

    As an old fart, I’m glad the Presidential Honor Guard still uses M1’s and M14’s and didn’t switch to the ugly M16. I’ve seen some local ceremonies where the Honor Guard carried M16’s and it just doesn’t look right. My Opinion of course.

    A Christmas Story...The Movie

    Every time I watch the classic movie, A Christmas Story, I’m reminded of my own childhood and the promotions that various cereals ran. While I had a number of the promotional gifts, Captain Midnight decoder badge, diving Navy Frogman, etc., the promotion that real captured my imagination was the...

    A Top Ten List

    I guess “Perfect for Pocket Carry” depends on what type of pocket. I had an article come across my feed this morning titled, “Top Ten Micro Pistols Under $300 Perfect for Pocket Carry.” Most of the choices were pretty much standard fare like the Bersa 380 and the Ruger LCP but I had to laugh out...

    Bucket List?

    Do you have a bucket list? Although I didn’t call it a bucket list at the time, mine began in grade school. The first three places on my list were the pyramids of Egypt, Old Faithful in Yellowstone, and Monument Valley (thanks to cowboy movies). Having been raised in a middle-class family, I...

    After 20 years of RV road trips and glamour camping, we have ended that chapter of our lives. We sold our RV and today the new owner of our Silverback fifth wheel took control of it. Over those 20 years we owned three fifth wheels, 2 Wildcats and 1 Silverback and they created many great memories...

    Poorly handled ATF Raid, Airport Executive Dead.

    This is the type of story that pisses me off. What could this guy have done that would trigger a raid like that? He was an executive at the Little Rock airport and worked there for many years. Couldn't they have just gone to his office and arrested him and then execute a search warrant in his...

    Interesting Artwork

    I was on a cruise last year on a ship that was built for Alaskan cruises. The artwork on the left represents gold nuggets and the artwork on the right is made from pistol caliber shell casings. I think it's supposed to represent what it took to protect your gold.

    State Militia

    Am I reading these two Missouri statutes correctly? It seems to me that every able-bodied citizen of Missouri between the ages of 17 and 64 is in the unorganized militia of the state. Or am I reading this wrong? 41.050. State militia, members. — The militia of the state shall include all...

    Missouri Senator Nick Schroer has proposed a rule change that would allow senators to settle a matter of honor by way of a duel. https://www.newsweek.com/missouri-republican-senators-duel-nick-schroer-1863838 I say if it's just for politicians, go for it. Nothing like having your state...

    I'm This Old.

    As a boy, these two were my favorite cowboys, and it goes without saying the Lone Ranger too. I think this is why I like SAA revolvers so much.

    A Favorite YouTube of Mine is Changing Hands.

    One of my many favorite gun channels to watch is Paul Harrell's channel. He announced that he is stepping away from his channel for health reasons (pancreatic cancer) and turning it over to his brother. It will be interesting to see what his brother does with it.

    The keyless entry and push button start on our Equinox is wonderful...until the battery in your key fob goes dead. I was finally able to open the door, but the car wouldn't start. I kept getting the message NO REMOTE DETECTED. I began to wonder if I would get home from my shopping trip. I...
