    Any love for Glocks around here?

    Glock 20 started it here since 10mm nutjobs had few choices back in the stone ages. Expanded to too many to list. No idea how many handguns lying around here but do know there are 81 holsters... Currently residing in the EDC rotation are a G43x MOS and a G48 MOS with PSA mags. Glocks tend to...

    The End Is Near

    Grew up in Hawaii in the 70's, Dad was stationed at Hickam AFB down by Pearl Harbor. We'd get driven to school in Wahiawa where there was a bridge where a guy was standing wearing a sandwich board sign saying "The world will end in 5 days." Each day was a countdown to "The world will end in 1...

    Musing on why/what we collect

    Started out as a 10mm nutjob, mostly because there were only around 23 different 10mm pistols made so an easily attained number. Well - except for that 1046... and some Brens... Kinda esoteric from there. Tastes change with time. Most recently been selling off hand cannon snub nose that are too...

    15-22 pistol?

    Ruger LC Charger came without sights and I thought to myself, "Who sells a pistol without sights?"

    KSP 1076

    1076 here isn't KSP version although I did seriously look at those around 25 years ago when there were a few more in the wild. There were some CHP 1066 that I nearly bit on as well, being a 3rd Gen fan boy here too...

    USAF F-4 Phantom II Thunderbirds B-roll

    My Dad flew RF-4C in southeast asia, got to see the Thunderbirds fly F-4s a couple times. Even saw one crash land at a show, pilot ejected and was OK. While there have been far better airframes since, it managed to bring my Dad and many others home in one piece. Great video, thanks for posting.

    Eureaka! I have found the Holy Grail.....1006

    Welcome to the club! 1xx6 S&W are some of my favorites. Have an example of each, 1046 withstanding. Last acquisition was a 1086 found by a list member and passed on for me to grab. Has the fabled Rosewood grips which are nice and chunky. I seriously do not ever recall having a malfunction on...

    M&P15x

    Kinda retro as quad rails date it. If you like it and feel good about the price, enjoy! Edit: Nice case too.

    S&W 329 night guard

    Personally would leave it alone. Great guns, Night Guards. NG386 here, wish I would have bought one each...

    5926 Opinions?

    Grab at $300. Prolly never need spare parts but no hurt hunting. Mags are the same. Try it, you'll like it!

    Electric riding lawnmower?

    Have old Ryobi 48v riding mower, 480e IIRC. The original batteries were AGM lead acid so if you went below 50% charge while mowing, they'd fail quickly. Original batteries lasted several seasons mowing 1.5 acres but then got to the point where one of the 4 12v AGM had a bad cell and runtime...

    Sig Sauer P365XL Question.

    No. XL basically means the frame will do 12 round mags but not 10 rounders. X on the frame might indicate RDS cut? And a P365X is an XL frame, straight trigger, with short barrel of standard P365. Clear as mud.
