Several months ago I began forming a relationship to become a dealer for Southetn Grind knives, http://southerngrind.com/ I talked them into sending me a knife to sample to see if they were up to my standards. I recently found out that all the profits from Zac Browns knife company go to a wonderful camp for disabled children called Camp Southern Ground This my friends is what I call a first class company, their knives are all built in Georgia and I can now tell you after carrying my Bad Monkey for the last day, they are definitely up to my standards. My knife came to me sharp, extremely sharp but since I have my system I could not resist to make it better i am thinking of doing a Badass Blades model with them2 points

Stick an AR, a backpack of MRE's and water plus some spare clothes and you've got a pretty nice all terrain set up there.2 points

I'm happy that he's happy, right up to the point where I will have to pay for him to live when he gets too old to traipse around the world and he has no SS, savings, or 401k to even try to live on.2 points

I went to a private field in Niota. We got there at 3, didn't see many birds until around 5, then they came from everywhere. I think there were about 20 hunters and only one didn't limit.1 point

And he tailgates the truck in front of him...what an idiot. Also compare the amount of rubber that the motorcycles have on the pavement compared to the bike...he's on the thin edge.1 point

check for local tourneys, most are catch and release, but they might have some leftovers that might help. GL1 point

It doesn't look like you have a front sight mount, so maybe the BUIS aren't an option. If I were building one with your optics budget I'd buy a scope, a mount ,and a red dot. You can get fairly decent options for all 3 on your budget. You'e in luck on the mount, because this wekend you can score a hard to beat Burris PEPR mount on Primary Arms for $60. I'd jump on that before they sell out, because it'll be good for any scope you choose that has a one-inch tube. Plus, the red dot can mount directly on the scope mount. The rest of my money would go on a totally decent Bushnell AR Optics scope for under $123 and a Truglo Tru-Brite. Neither are the best, but both are darn good for the money. Plus,they'll get you by until you can get something better, that is IF you don't wind up liking both like I did.1 point

6 stages are set, 18 rounds per stage, minimum 108 rounds total. Multiple movers, drop turners, swingers, out and backs. There will be a lot of moving so bring your running shoes. It's going to be a beautiful day so come on out and have some fun shooting.1 point

Saw that. Have had no problems with mine. Doesn't even get warm when charging. I don't use the $3 chargers either. I will keep the one I have and wait until they replace it down the road. This just appears that Samsung is stepping up early and taking control of the situation which is a problem caused from off brand cheap chargers which are notorious for issues. Kudos to them for going the extra mile.1 point

There was a vendor at the last Knox show selling these. Certainly not inexpensively, I'll take a shot at them in the near future. Helpful hint, if you are using Craftsmen power tools, quit before you start. They are just good enough to piss you off!1 point

Look in gear classifieds. Buy my 1-4 scope/mount. Profit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk1 point

Great idea about the less fancy version. That I might give a try. Now about that project list, if mine gets any longer; I'll need a hundred more years to finish them at my pace.1 point

I think you just convinced me to pick up a bottle of 1792 today. I've been tempted by it numerous times.1 point

I shot at a private field outside of Pikeville with 8 friends. None of us limited out, but we all got close. I managed 13. Best opener to date! At 12 o'clock it was like someone had opened a cage. A flock of maybe 300 came through right on the whistle. We had great action right up until 4pm & then it just died. There were 95 shooters all told & 14 of them hit their limit before 2pm.1 point

I recently bought a bottle of the 2008 vintage that was just released last month. I was so impressed with it that I've picked up several more bottles and later found some of the 2007 vintage and a 2006 that I'll try another day. I did find a bottle of the 2005 at a shop, but they had a $36 price tag on it, which I thought was too much since I've bought all of the others for under $30. I may reconsider and go back and pick it up if it's still there. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk1 point

The only problem I've had (so far) with my PF9 was it started dropping the mag after every shot. I was confident I wasn't bumping the release, so I called Keltec. They said it was common with the older ones and sent me an upgraded release button and spring for free. It's worked perfect ever since.1 point

Agreed on all points, Mike. Though not my first choice these days, my second AR (and the oldest, most used AR in my collection) is built with a pre-assembled PTAC upper. It has seen easily over 2k rounds of all kinds of ammo... steel, milsurp, match grade, and even tracers once for fun. Not a hitch yet, except for one hangup with a ratty old thermold mag. I blame the mag for that and threw it away. Accuracy has been great, imho. I just have a red dot on it. Originally a cheapie truglo, I put on a Vortex Sparc II AR on it a couplemonths ago. A buddy and I were at OK Corral sighting it in and I decided to try it at 200yds just for fun. I kept 4 of 5 shots on a 6" shoot 'n see. I couldn't even see that sticker. I just had to cover the sticker with the dot. I don't know what else I could expect from a $200 complete upper. I don't think I'm a good enough shooter that more money spent would gain me anything, either. Sure, I build rifles with different stuff now, but mainly because I want to pick and choose each part. If a PTAC branded barrel were available that met the specs I wanted (length, twist, gas system, finish, etc) for a fair price, I wouldn't hesitate to buy another.1 point

The AR platform is a funny thing. If you take guns from the three premium "manufacturers" and from PSA, there is a good possibility that the receivers, BCG's and barrels could be from the same manufacturer between the PSA and some or all of the premium rifles. Those parts are all QC'ed by their individual manufacturers. I'm not arguing against the premium brands. I have bought a lot of stuff from DD and BCM. I am just saying at AR parts overall are very good these days. Obviously, there are exceptions. But, it's not difficult, or even expensive to buy MPI tested full auto BCG's from PSA. Barrels? I just hot rodded a PSA upper with a receiver lapping job, BCM free float handguard, and a Geissele trigger. That thing shoots sub MOA with my SMK handloads, and guzzles Wolf ammo like candy. Did I get lucky? Maybe.Not the first time I have seen great accuracy from a cheesy AR1 point

I had planned to get an Orca, but while coming to Rimfire nationals in St Louis, I stopped in Cabelas. I ended up getting a 40qt Cabelas brand. It's also made in the us and was rated number 1 by the F&S reviews. I think I will be happy with it.1 point

The wait is officially over, my friends! I was at the Nashville Armory this afternoon filling out my Form 1 paperwork to SBR my Draco AK. Lo and behold, my tax stamp arrived while I was completing my paperwork. My suppressor was in jail for 197 days, but I am thankful that I had the opportunity to put it through its paces while it sat in transfer. This is my first tax stamp + I will have several more trickling in until the following January. My nightstand gun is officially complete!1 point

If you're gonna shoot the crap out of it, and carry it in your truck, or while in the woods cutting down trees, get a Ruger GP100.... If you're going to leave it in the safe and show it off to people at the shooting range, get a S&W.... Both good guns, just depends on how much you want to spend and how pretty of a gun you want.1 point

It depends on what you want. If it's a smaller five shot .38/.357 then the Model 60 is hard to beat but the SP-101, though slightly larger, is a little more comfortable to shoot with .357 Magnum rounds. If its a 6 shot .38/367 the 3" barrel Ruger GP-100 is a bit larger and heavier then the 2.5" barrel S&W M-19/66 and again a little bit more comfortable o shoot with .357 Magnum rounds. The S&W 686 has been available with a 2.5" barrel and size wise is on par with he GP-100. Overall I prefer 1970-1980's S&W revolvers. My personal recommendation is go with the GP-100.1 point

I think the Feds are just looking for another way to gain more gun controls. I bet half or more of the Feds wanting the law probably smoke it themselves..............jmho1 point

Good Info from both Wiljo05 and sschrick I would offer this recommendation - - - Please DO NOT get a Blackhawk SERPA Holster. They are IMHO unsafe. Too many shooters do not understand the correct placement for their finger to release the locking SERPA Auto Lock (see red arrow in picture). Folks will use the tip of their finger to release the lock, and then as they draw the handgun their finger will touch the trigger and a negligent discharge WILL Happen! At best the shooter gets a disqualification from the round impacting closer than two yards away, at worst the shooter (or somebody else) gets a gunshot wound. Blackhawk makes a very inexpensive holster without the SERPA that they call the Sportster Standard that can be had in the $20-30 range that will do everything you need in IPDA.1 point

This whole thing is upside down. Free speech isn't free of consequences, EXCEPT by the government. In real life, what you say has consequence. Kaepernick is free to say whatever he wants and everyone else is free to say whatever they want in response. There is no defense for Kaepernick necessary nor should there be condemnation for those who speak against him. Lecturing those who disagree with Kaepernick about free speech etc. is the epitome of the pot calling the kettle black while the pot is filled with arrogant hypocrisy.1 point

I think you have me confused with some weak minded individuals who are prone to Stockholm syndrome. I don't care how long I am held or by whom, the first chance I get I will escape and rain hell on them for doing so as soon as I am able. But that is a moot point, as I said the flag to me does not represent the government but those who fought for our way of life. Since I was young I decided that as soon as I could I would join the military and give back to this country, and did so for 21 years. If asked to I again would take up arms to defend it, and if people like Colin didn't like it then they could just kiss my 4th point of contact. I may not support a particular military or police action, but will stand with all the men and women who take part in it. There are good and bad people on both sides, and I support bringing them all to justice. But these incidents are far and few between and looting and burning your own community and calling for the killing of law enforcement officers because of it is downright un-American. I support the right of anyone to have and voice their opinion but I do not have to support that opinion. And BTW, I support stopping that kind of protest by any non-lethal means instead of standing by and letting it happen.1 point

That sucks. I went through something similar getting my permit over some forged checks, one of the clerks at the courthouse didn't do their job. It's hard to fix something when nobody will tell you what's wrong finally got it straightened out though. I caught a TBI agent in a decent mood and they gave me a little hint, if not for that I'm not sure what would have happened. Good luck on everything!1 point

If anyone has not mention Knob Creek....I have found a liking for it. Being a person who used to only drink Gentleman Jack and Jack Daniels black label before that. I stopped drinking about 10 years ago. Beer and wine would cause pain in the lower right back. Doctors could not figure it out. Last year one of the Doctors I was seeing suggested alcohol to make the pain killers I was on be more effective. So I deiced to try whisky, which for some reason does not cause any pain. I still keep it to a shot or two every now and then. I fell in love with Buffalo Trace, like Markers Mark, and Woodford Reserve. I like the Knobs Creek the best. I do have a question. Can anyone suggest a favorite Rye. I have been thinking about trying one!1 point

I am pretty sure our Elmer is gone. One bottle left in a hidey whole, I won't sell that one. There is fixing to be a glut of Blanton's. We bought a barrel of it. I assume other stores did as well. I have not taken the time to figure out how many bottles that is but it surely is a shiznit ton more than what has been around lately. I did sell a $1K bottle of Scotch yesterday, dude was totally buying it for his trophy shelf. I gave him a real strong discount to help him out. Boss was happy. It was the highest dollar one bottle sale I have ever made. Yay me!1 point
