  1. Only if you push a button not fixed to the blade. Assisted opening knives are perfectly fine as long as you push on something attached to the blade, like on the Gerber I posted.
  2. I really like the Gerber Applegate/Fairbairn F.A.S.T. It is the cheaper version of the same knife. Sharpen both sides and you have a tried and true fighting knife as well as working well as a everyday carry knife. I carry one and really like it. It's also spring assisted opening. They go for $35 to $50 with the better ones running in the $70-90 range. I also really like my Cold Steel Recon 1 Tanto. It's a little large and heavy for EDC, but excellent knife. These run in $80 range.
  3. Saiga's are the best you can buy of an assembly line. Plus you get the added cool factor that it is a "true" Russian AK. I also agree with Caster, but I went the other way. I've had a bunch of AR's in multiple calibers and platforms and I just don't like them as much. I prefer the AK any day. That being said it is purely a personal decision. It is six of one and 1/2 dozen of the other. Some like high maintenance super models and others prefer the girl next door. I'm a girl next door kinda guy.
  4. Like has been said, the entrances (roadways are posted) however, they are not legal postings since you can not post roadways. The entrances around the mall are governed by the GPD and as such are considered public right of ways and can not be legally posted.
  5. The name in the game for CZ's is Angus Hobdell. CZ Custom Shop They have all the parts and can do any of the work you need done. They are also very good at answering any questions you might have.
  6. I don't think there is any mods you can do to the P07. Polymer frame so no grip changes and the internals use the Omega system, which is better tuned from the factory, but not as workable as the 75.
  7. PM Beowulf50. If anyone has any experience with them it's Tad. I'm pretty sure he has some IIRC.
  8. Eh, the accuracy claims are less accurate than the rifle. It is as accurate as near any semi-auto 30/30 out there. It's inaccuracy claims are wildly exaggerated or compared apples to oranges. The ballistics of the round itself is not a direct comparison to say 5.56. However, the power of the 5.56 is not a direct comparison to the x39. There is also very little match grade ammo for the x39 like there is for 5.56. Using Wolf ammo, the accuracy between a x39 and 5.56 are not as far apart as some like to believe. As far as what it has going for it, is far more than looks and bad press. It is an extremely reliable, useful weapon that is more battle worthy in more environments than just about any other weapon used today. Not to mention the round is more along the lines of the 30/30, which is considered to be one of the most utilitarian rounds out there behind the 30-06, .270, and .308. Long range sniper .. no. Everything else ...yep:D As far as building one, you will have to build 4 or 5 to break even. That is unless you already have all the jigs, presses, welding equipment, etc. It's not plug and play like an AR
  9. WASR's aren't "bad" in and of themselves. After all an AK is an AK no matter where it comes from. Meaning it should run and shoot anything you feed it. However, WASR's tend to not have the best finish or wood parts, but that is easily fixed. When people talk about a bad AK, they are generally referring to a canted front sight, gas block, or the finish being cheap. In the past Century did not do a very good job of putting those items on straight when they did it in house. Century is now subbing out their AK assembly and the product is much better. The best way to fix a "bad" AK is with a mallet and spray paint.
  10. That's why you wear SOCKS with sandals .... duh!
  11. LOVE the Uzi! Can't wait to get me another one (not the FA one, however. )
  12. Those are awesome. The only negative is that they are not AK compatible. Mags and parts are not interchangeable.
  13. It should be said that current Century's are being sub-contracted and are nothing like their in house guns of old. That being said the best you can get is a converted Saiga. Whether you do it yourself or get a good Redjacket or similar you will be well ahead of anything else out on the market.
  14. Pretty easy to make it so. Ratworx has the lefty bolts in stock.
  15. The two I really regret selling is my first MSAR and that Hi-Power. Redeeming one at a time ...
  16. Decide to trade the AR for an MSAR E4. Man, I love these things! SOOOOO much better than an AR.

    Kel Tec KSG

    I'd say to expect realistically more than a year before you see one. Currently there are two in existence IIRC and they are both prototypes Kel-tec is great at good designs and HORRIBLE at getting stuff released.
  18. PK380's are a very popular choice for the ladies (men too ) as well as the Bersa Thunder 380. Both are smallish enough for carry, shoot a decent round, is NOT overpowering, and the slides (especially the PK380) are easy to work. Good choice.
  19. D&T has a 75 compact and a few others ATM.
  20. That and the ergos's of the CZ are much better and the trigger is much more workable. Meaning you can work over a CZ trigger a whole lot better than a SIG.
  21. D&T has some and can get them. I have and carry the 2075 Rami P. LOVE it! I had a P07 and really liked everything except at the time I couldn't find a holster for it.
  22. The DD are awesome. Really thin and lightweight and worth every penny. However, for the money and I really like Yankee Hill Machines dimonand series. A lot of rail for the money. Here's mine on a Spikes Tactical mid length.
  23. I sell guns. Seriously though, we get a lot of women and first time shooters through the store that are scared or have never handled a gun before. It is enjoyable to see them go from scared of an inanimate object to excited as they check out with their new gun. Then days later when they come back for more ammo and targets, to hear how they are having some much fun and are now looking for their next weapon. This is pretty much how it should work on the personal level. Get them started with something they are comfortable with, don't be a know it all, let them take their time, and they will tell more people than you can imagine and it will grow from there. Guys bring you wife and let her pick out her OWN gun. For some reason, my wife included, will listen to some random person before she will ever hear a word from me!
