    PDW's

    Having shot one 20 round magazine through one once, I'm good. It was a "blast" for sure. Zero practical use but, fun as all get out if you can afford the ammo to feed it.

    5.56mm 56 round and 100 round Magazines

    Surefire makes (made?) some 60rd and 100rd magazines that looked very similar to the standard 30rd aluminum magazines. The 60rd mags were the same length if I recall correctly, just wider. The 100rd mags were a bit longer. I have a few and while I haven't used them in a while, I do remember...

    PDW's

    Several others nailed it - sure you could call most anything a PDW but, the term used today originated from the 1980's marketing by H&K for the MP5K. Yes, I know many older weapons were modified for a PDW role, or even just thought of as such due to the lesser calibers than most fighting rifles...

    SHOCKWAVE SHOTGUNs

    Dip it in liquid rubber - makes it tackier for the grip, would serve your need and it'd peel right off if you ever wanted to not have it or sell it.

    Home Defense Shotguns

    Yes, I never recommend having a round chambered until it's in your hands and you are in control of it. Even if you trip or drop, always ensure it's pointed in a safe direction. We had the occasional lazy cop that would chamber a round on a call and then "forget" or just decide not to download it...

    Home Defense Shotguns

    That's the route we took. Couldn't be happier, in spite of the frustration at times as well. They can be a handful but, if you put in the time, energy and effort...every day...they are so, so worth it. Nothing, and I mean nothing, occurs in or around the house without him knowing about it, as...

    SHOCKWAVE SHOTGUNs

    Everything I was going to say, has already been covered by others. The birdshead grip really does change the recoil feel to tolerable, much more so than a true pistol grip. It's all about the angles. I've got a Tac14 that I tag along on hunting trips, sole use as camp protection with bears. It's...

    If Not Randall, Then What?

    Every proper knife collection includes a Ruana, that's been well used and still going. That's definitely something I've noticed... Most Randall's you come across are new or near new, except for Vietnam era and earlier. There are exceptions and those that actually use them. I've got a Combat...

    Seecamp 32

    My little Seecamp runs 100% on Speer Gold Dot. Haven't had a chance to try other loads yet. It was an impulse buy a few years ago and makes a great little pocket gun, either as a second or as the only when dress attire requires.

    WTB S&W factory 9rd 909 3906 magazine or two....

    What the title says... I'm looking for one or two factory S&W 909/3906 factory magazines.... decent shape, don't need to be new...just good condition without damage.

    Picked up a S&W 909

    Lightweight and underrated pistol - I've got one but, only one mag. It's simple, no frills....I'd imagine it'd be a decent full size carry/house piece in places where you are limited to 10rd capacity.

    WTS Randall Bowie and Colt SAA Stags

    Stags are sold/traded and gone. Bump for the Randall that's still available. (couldn't see where I could just edit the original posting)

    If Not Randall, Then What?

    I'm a Randall fan. Have a couple for the collection and two I actually use for many outdoor tasks including dressing game. Other higher end blades to look at for hard use are offerings from Half Face Blades, Alaska Blade Works and Winkler knives. Some hold them collectible, many use them...

    Shotguns and Bayonets?

    It's not really a "should I" but, more of a "could I" type thing. There's no practical purpose other than it's kinda cool for photo op's and maybe leaning next to the door when the Witness's come a knocking... It also makes a good companion to the sidearm for much more convenient daily...
