    There's a Bing Crosby song that comes to mind (or he sang it anyway), I'm an Old Cowhand which I believe applies to so many of us regular city folks and civis when it comes to duty vs. fun. However, I can say with certainty that from the beginning of my firearms experience, the single thing...

    Groundhog Day 2/2/2010

    I don’t mean to sound righteous, but I think there must be a money trail somewhere in order for PETA to get their articles published at all. It’s one thing to blow the whistle on animal abuse, or real mistreatment, but to take every single opportunity to blow a horn about animals being...

    The cost is pretty steep, that's for sure. I've been eyeing one for nearly $1500 (or more, depending on where I'm looking). I've been having trouble locating a model to inspect first hand as my local retailers are either completely dumbfounded as to what I'm talking about, or have no idea of how...

    I was wondering if anyone owned a Nagant M1895? I've been reading up on those recently and they seem to be very interesting weapons, both for mechanical structure and ammunition used. Are these still in production (that is to say reproduction)?

    Wow, that is nice. I will be picking up my m4 shortly and will post pics. You mentioned the ACOG - which one do you have and what was the ballpark price? I will be getting an ACOG (eventually) and I haven't seen much feedback on them anywhere online.

    Cognac - where to begin?

    When I was working for a Wine&Spirits outfit, I had the opportunity to taste very many fine liquors (as well as some that I wouldn't wash my windows with). Personally, I prefer the stronger tasting Armagnacs over Cognac, however, I've had strong Cognacs and smooth Armagnacs. [huh] Of the...

    Valentines Day?

    I enjoy spoiling my significant other on Valentine's Day. Unfortunately, my lady does not care for, or feel inclined to, being spoiled on this day. As a result, I will likely get some cheap chocolates and a card for her, and expect nothing for myself. [huh]

    Anyone here really love Kleen Bore products? I started with the .357/.38/9mm pistol cleaning kit, black hard plastic box with rod, nylon brush, bronze bore brush, slotted patch holder, plastic muzzle guard, cleaning patches and Formula3. I've since purchased a kit for every caliber I own...

    When did the Slide Toward Casual Begin in Earnest?

    Wow, very interesting observation. Thanks for the article!

    When did the Slide Toward Casual Begin in Earnest?

    Please forgive my ignorant Occidentalism here but I believe the "west" and it's philosophy is very focused on individuals, or individuals in groups (followed by groups in cultures, cultures in nations, nations in countries, etc.) and this opposes the so called "oriental" view of many for the...

    Television... who's sick of it? Anyone?

    My television is merely a vehicle for 1.) movie (netflix) watching and 2.) various video game playing. In either case, each is primarily enjoyed for purposes of relaxation. In no case do I watch television programs unless I mistakenly switch the channel and end up on PBS (in which case, I...

    It sounds like your father has the same collection I have (almost)! Do post pics, especially the older rifles if possible! ;)

    Really interesting, thank you! :eusa_clap

    I received confirmation that this is, in fact, an M4gry, which coincidentally was exactly how it was worded to me. ;) DPMS M4, semi-auto to be exact. I have been struggling to find information on accessories for this firearm, although I realize there are an abundance on the market. I've...

    I really like those Dan Wesson .357's. I've only fired one once, but they are solid firearms and great looking. Finding those is a little more challenging than finding, say, a Colt Python; the latter being primarly relegated to dusty pawn shops and occasional gun shows.

    An article about early Christian writings describing the date of Jesus' Birth.

    Quite interesting, thank you!

    Alright, after two thorough cleanings, some WD40 to the magazine, and about every curse word I could muster, I've finally decided to load FMJs in place of Hydra-Shoks. Thanks for all of your feedback everyone!

    Counting Your Change...

    Sadly, when I used to work at a liquor store, it was all too common, albeit often, to have someone turn in a portion of their coin collection for booze. I would regularly buy out Franklin Silver 1/2 Dollars, Kennedy Silver 1/2 dollars, Eisenhower Moon Dollars, Liberty Dimes, Buffalo Nickles, red...

    Not particularly important...

    ...but does anyone visit the Consumerist web blog? Have you noticed the striking similarity between their "Fedora Mascot" and our "Fedora Mascot"? [huh] Just curious, as I'm sure there's no real correlation. Perhaps we rubbed off on them? Not likely, but interesting none the less...
