      Attention to those in charge

      I have been a long time member here with well over 100 if not several hundred quality postings. For what ever reason that I am unable to determine my original membership information was lost or expunged and I had to re-register as a new member. Is there any way a moderator here can check the...

      Edge pro vs wicked edge

      I know it's not what you asked about but I can get my knives hair popping sharp with it using the course, fine and extra fine sharpening rods and it's not that costly. VERY easy to use and reasonably quick. I have knives made from A2, 420HC, Carbon V, 154CM, S30V, VG10 and a few others I can't...

      The "Sig"ness- vol 1.

      I went through quite the evolution of polymer handguns as i really wanted to give IDPA a try. Owned and sold a 9mm 4.25" M&P Pro that after a Apex trigger upgrade that didn't help to improve the M&P's inconsistent accuracy. Not that the accuracy was that aweful it was just it wasn't very good...

      Dogs coming after you/your dog when walking?

      Been charged by quite a few dogs, attacked by more than a few. Thankfully most happen while I was younger and I'm a large quite strong man who can kick harder than a rented mule. I have owned several very large powerful dogs so I know how to handle such animals. Had a neighbor that had a mixed...

      Possible Mountain Lion Attack in Owen County

      I would like to add over 20 years ago I was in a national park in CO and while hiking had a Mt lion cross the path I was hiking on. It was moving quickly but I saw it long enough to see it was wearing a radio collar. Made the mistake of telling a park ranger who had me stay put till the...

      Possible Mountain Lion Attack in Owen County

      I'm sure that is comforting information to the two mountain bikers the same lion grabbed and killed off the same trail on the same day in CA a few years ago. I'm not say Mt lions or any large preditore is a blood thirst killer out for human flesh, because I well know they aren't. But I am of...

      Need assistance with beating RUST

      Do you use a commercial electrolysis device or home made? If commercial which one? I have a badly corroded shotgun I would love to try to restore.

      Don't you hate it when you lose a piece???

      Two weeks before I was to leave on a NM ML elk hunt the hammer for my Encore ML was actuating in such a manner it literally screamed badly fouled and gummed up. Used an entire fresh can of spray degreaser with no apparent affect. So I had little choice but to disassemble it and clean it hoping...

      Ed's Red Bore Cleaner

      Made up 5 gallons over 15 years ago and have about 1 gallon left. IIRC cost me less than what a 1/2 gallon of any other non-copper bore cleaner would have cost and it works great at removing EVERYTHING BUT copper fouling. What I have been doing for about 10-12 years now is do a good first...

      Cheapest, decent quality scope for distance shooting??

      I second sniper central and Long Range Hunting. Spent more time at Long Range Hunting. Lots of GREAT info and people there. Join and use the search function. But I will tell you if you take a cheap/cheaper/budget long range scope hunting especially on a high dollar out west elk or deer hunt you...

      Philosophical question: Should women have the right to vote?

      There is absolutely nothing what so ever wrong with PRIVATE sector unions. EVERY LAST privilege you enjoy while working was fought for and earned by a union member, but that is a discussion for another day. PUBLIC sector unions should have never been allowed for the obvious gross conflict of...

      Friend's workplace is implementing "random bag checks" due to issues with theft.

      I've worked in several places where searches some as you entered and left daily were the norm. I worked in a building that was bought by a Jewish company that was being renovated and EVERY morning your bag or tool box was either searched or sent though an X-ray machine. They were installing...

      Philosophical question: Should women have the right to vote?

      A great man once said "If you want to easily solve all of America's problem take the vote away from woman". True enough. Woman vote with their emotions, men not so much. Socrates expressed great concern at the folly of letting anyone vote and was actually against letting uneducated people from...

      How much weight before you don't readily float?

      When I decided to get in shape back in the mid 80's I went from 275 to 225 and IIRC under 5% body fat and did it mostly by swimming as I love to swim but hate to jog and built up to 85 lengths a day, 5 days/week in a OLY sized pool. It amazed me how hard it was to stay afloat VS when I was...
