    How long have you carried the same EDC pocket knife?

    I'm 65 years old, retired USMC, and have carried a true assortment of knives through the years. Then I obtained a 1st Generation Spyderco Delica by accident. Added a new model Dragonfly a short time later...then found a 1st Generation Endura. For the past 10+ years, those three knives have lived...

    J-frame grip experience

    +1 on the Tyler T-Grips. I have them on all my Model 60's and Ruger Service/Security Sixes. Keep those beautiful factory grips!

    On Being Armed.

    I'm sorry, I confess I didn't read all of the posts. But the title, "On Being Armed" prompted me to offer my personal credo that I have adopted: On Sheep, Wolves, and Sheepdogs - Dave Grossman May God bless.

    Model 36 no dash

    For me, any Model 36 is worth a 2nd look and a purchase if the price is right. $400 OTD is right in my book. I would love to show off my 3 Model 36's, but I continue to give them away to female family members...wife, daughter-in-law, sister-in-law. They are perfect CCW's especially for novice...

    Those that Carry a J...Ever Worry that 5 Isn't Enough?

    I worked in an Level 2 Trauma ER for the past 15 years. Night shift. ONE is enough. Five? If the first one is accurate and has the penetration (fmj/wadcutter/semi-wadcutter) then my job was short and final. I've seen the "pray and spray" gun shot wounds. Yeah, let's use those high capacity...

    What's in your .380?

    PPK and CZ-83 In .380 I want accuracy and penetration. Accuracy comes from practice. In .380, adequate penetration, no matter the seasonal clothing layers nor weight of the perpetrator, comes reliably only with FMJ. Therefore, FMJ. Always FMJ.

    Defensive Gun Ownership - The Myth

    Oh, how I love reading tongue-in-cheek! On Sheep, Wolves, and Sheepdogs - Dave Grossman May all the sheep continue to graze during the day and sleep peacefully at night.

    George Lawrence Holster - size chart needed

    This is just one piece of a HUGE pie, The George Lawrence holster that came with my Model 36 had the following codes...after much research: Lawrence holster code: 24 = model # (this one had belt slide and snaps) D = black C = chamois liner W = white weave edge (haven't seen one since) X =...

    1971 Chief's Special Model 36, general questions

    OK, it's a jewel. Collectors would love to have it. If you want make $$ seal it up and lock it in a safe. BUT, if it's going to become a family heirloom (it will outlive you), then you have to decide what your great grand child wants to hear... 1. "Here's great-grand dad's Model 36. He never...

    1971 Chief's Special Model 36, general questions

    p.s. Add a Tyler T-Grip. Sweet grip enhancement without detracting from its beauty.

    1971 Chief's Special Model 36, general questions

    Sorry, a little off-topic. OK...lube it like they said, pamper it like they said...But then load it with .38 special SWC's and carry that bad boy in your pocket. I bought two...1968...carried it in my right front Wrangler's pocket every time I left the house. My son got married, now his new wife...

    What guns have you regreted selling?

    1968 Model 36 with Tyler T-grips...wait, I gave it to my daughter-in-law. 1984 stainless Ruger Service Six with Tyler T-grips...wait, I gave it to my son. 2010 Ruger LCR...wait, I gave it to my daughter. I think I must be getting dementia. Thank God I haven't sold the rest of my handguns!
