The Eiger Sanction is a movie that I like to tell people is as close as you can get to a live-action version of The Venture Brothers. If that doesn’t sell you on it, then I don’t know why I even bother to talk to you about movies. Made in 1975, The Eiger Sanction is basedContinue reading “The Eiger Sanction”

Handgun Shopping
Guest post from Katherine Kim I love guns. While some girls enjoy spending their money on shoes, I like to slowly build my armory and gear to appease my many hobbies. I don’t limit myself to one brand, but I do have my favorites. Although my collection is not enormous, it is growing and eachContinue reading “Handgun Shopping”
Elvis 22. Rem Jet Up For Auction
Pretty cool. RIA is getting ready to auction of one of Elvis’ 6 shooters. A Model 53 S&W in .22 Remington Jet. The neat thing about the 53 to me is the round it fires and its ability to shoot 22. long rifle. The gun is chambered for the .22 Remington Jet, but came withContinue reading “Elvis 22.

What is the measure of a good rifleman?
Last night I ran across another thread over at Arfcom that I thought posed an interesting question. The poster asked members what skill level and standards do they think makes some one a competent and skilled “rifleman.” AS you know, this is an evergreen subject for me. For years I have pondered on this questionContinue reading “What is the measure of a good rifleman?”

Auto Ordnance Thompson “SMG” Carbine
A few weeks ago I got my hands on one of the .45 ACP Thompson Semi Auto carbines. The gun is obviously a semi auto copy of the iconic WW2 Submachine gun that every one has seen knows it on sight if not by name. I have been curious about these for years ,I haveContinue reading “Auto Ordnance Thompson “SMG” Carbine”
The Tactical Link Gen2 PRM Review
A few weeks ago, Tactical Link graciously sent me one of their PRM sling mount. This is the 2nd gen of the rail mounted sling mounting point for QD sling swivels. I opted for the coyote PRM since my gun is a FDE anodized Colt 6940. I was very excited to get this mount andContinue reading “The Tactical Link Gen2 PRM Review”
BREAKTHROUGH BORE CLEANER
This will basically be a “part 1″ of a more longer lasting test period. Cleaning solvent is one of those things it takes a long time and a lot of different things to really evaluate to my satisfaction.
