I still can't shoot around my house. But, I think I have some places to hunt. I'm interested in 45 Colt loads for an SAA clone. Smokeless or black powder will work.
-
I hate it too, enough to rat them out to the gun show, and the manufacturer if I can get good ID.
-
Mine really is a gun room. It's just being brutalized by a remodel right now. And, I need to build a reloading bench.
-
It ain't the whole pile. My poor reloading area is a huge mess.
-
Piss on 'em. A part of my pile...
-
Yeah, it's fast. The shorter/lighter the blade, the faster it's gonna open. I thought the Godson was fast. You need to practice getting that thing in and out of your pocket. I haven't carried mine yet, but will figure out a way to stay away from that button.
-
Keep your booger hook off the bang switch until the Johnson is out of reach of the blade :) Seriously, I haven't tested sharpness yet. If it's as sharp as my other Protechs, you sure don't want it turning loose in your pocket.
-
Don't forget... machine gun and ammo storage :)
-
I don't think the gov's IT folks will allow it.

Got mine. Great looking knife
-
You mean the autographed ones? Those things are expensive! :)

I really like this one. -
That's a pretty one :rofl: Just don't drop it on your toe.
-
From what I read, that golf course is a designated emergency landing area. So it sounds pretty textbook, except for the plane sticking in the mud.
-
Doesn't take much to move one, since it's swallowing all the recoil. I've always had to put mine back on target after every shot.
-
That depends on the Lead Sled, I guess. Mine has fine windage and elevation adjustments, and will let you do real accurate shots. It's just too big and heavy to lug around.
-
I use my lead sled on hard kickers to keep them from beating the crap out of me. I haven't had a problem getting good groups with one. I normally shoot with a good front rest and rear bag. I can't say that the lead sled does any worse than them. I have the DFT version of the Lead Sled.

I have a high power FFP PST. I really want one of these for carbine use.
-
Already saw this on Facebook :stick: . Yep, you're rubbin' it in now :)
-
The 0350 would be a much cooler knife with 3D machined scales, like the 300 and 560/561. I would pop for some if the price was reasonable.
-
Great looking scales. Great price too. Now... you do realize that the 300 and 560 have a titanium slab on one side, and only require scale. The 350 has two scales. So, you could be looking at double the cost for one of ZT's least expensive knives. I would love to see it. Just may be hard to talk them into it.
