Hi Standard Citation

A very interesting Hi-Standard from Karl today.

From our pal , Stu from Thevintage1911 “Oh my GOD!!!”. 43 years seems to have passed in the blink of an eye.. 11 December marks the anniversary of the day “Magnum PI” premiered on CBS, and the rest, as they sat, is history.. So pop your Betamax tape of the Army/ Navy game into theContinue reading “Magnum P.I. At 43 Years”

“What Kind Of American Are You?”

Authored by Jim Quinn via The Burning Platform blog, War, What’s It Good For? We have only seen a handful of movies in a theater over the last decade. Ever since the kids grew up, there hasn’t been a reason to spend too much for too little. Regal Cinemas in Oaks was the place toContinue reading ““What Kind Of American Are You?””

My Every Day Carry

Recovering from the Flu this week. So a post Sunshine Shooter and his blog will be doing some of the work for me today. Enjoy his old post about what he carries everyday.

Retro Night Vision

My friend Phil just picked up this old classic for his A1. After some hunting he found the mount and now has everything together and working. And you know what? For it’s age, the image quality isn’t too bad! Hell lets be real though. Who cares how clear the image is. The thing is cool.

SOG Codename Dynamite: A MACV-SOG 1-0’s Personal Journal- BOOK 2

Mr. Thompson’s second book about his time in SOG is now out and it is every bit as good as the first. More exciting actually. He goes into his more dangerous missions in the second part. As he gained more time and experience he naturally got sent on tougher jobs. Thompson gives a sort ofContinue reading “SOG Codename Dynamite: A MACV-SOG 1-0’s Personal Journal- BOOK 2”

Meeting a soccer mom, and what’s wrong with Ms. Mag on guns
