Magazines that appear to hold more than 10 rounds is a recent phenomenon, primarily for […]

Though I am in the market for a Colt Delta Elite, I want to eat my cake too by finding a model with a 4.25″ barrel.  A commander variation isn’t readily available, so I found myself drooling at Fusion Firearms‘ artwork.  I could work my way down to a $1800.00 pistol with all the features […]

Remember that prototype bag I checked out at SHOT?  Well, it’s here. Mel at Kifaru introduced the OTW bag for sale on 08/09/10.  Check out the forum post for specifics and how they went about doing some of the changes on the bag since you last saw it. The OTW Bag is unlike any “go […]

All I have to do is write about a contest and leave the rest up to chance?  The Firearm Blog makes it too easy for me not to, so I’m in! I have nothing in .380, but I wouldn’t mind several boxes of 10mm Auto for the GLOCK 29SF I’m picking up in a matter […]

Mark’s first post at http://www.Calguns.net. From here on out, we will be sending $1,000.00 per month / $12.000.00 annually, until the cows come home. This $12,000 check covers all of 2009. We know every organization has to have phones, water, electricity … we hope this will help cover a small portion of those monthly costs. […]

I recently found this entry archived on my older computer.  I likely forgot about it since I rarely use the computer unless I’m traveling.  It took me a year to post this thing… Huzah! Tactical Long Distance Shooting Clinic – Sacramento Valley Shooting Center and Using the Remington 788 chambered in .308. Nearly two months […]

As awesome David‘s suggestion to cook with fresh ingredients and one pan (I just bought it and will receive it soon), I went ahead and purchased freeze dried food anyway. I found LDP Camping Foods through a Google search and ordered my meal plan. Granted that it did not ship next day, I received a […]
