    Shot my first Glock model 26 today, here are my thoughts and impressions......

    Why should cops have all the advantages? Ain't my life worth preserving too? My Glock 26 is there for me when I need more than my 42. Muscle memory carries over between the two. I like short, fat, and chunky. Always have. Ask my drinkin' buddies.

    Let's talk Turkey....as in made in Turkey

    Your least favorite S&W revolver

    .357 Mag Pressure Signs: How Sticky is Too Sticky?

    Knife sharpening

    If you are frugal like me and want to do a bang-up job with just a stone I suggest you learn this guys technique. It is the only method I've ever used with a stone that worked for me. I can get knives shaving sharp with just a $3 Harbor Freight stone. I use the ones they sell as a whetstone...

    Has anyone here shot anyone as a civilian?

    A friend shot (and killed) his sister with a 22 rifle his dad left loaded when he was 10 or 12. He died an alcoholic in his 60's, went to prison twice (for other things) and did not have a happy life. His nickname was Crazy Bobby.
