    A.G. Russell knives HQ is about 15 minutes north from my house. Went up there this weekend, they've just now opened the store back up for shopping.

    How to sharpen your knife

    Sounds like you have it down pat sir....lol. I didn't to too well on my first few but I got some tips from my maintenance supervisor at work, he's an old school knife sharpener and actually recommended the work Worksharp field sharpener I use now. I just kept practicing on any and all knives I...

    How to sharpen your knife

    I just got into knife sharpening about a year ago. The Worksharp prodcuts, my favorite being the portable field sharpener, has allowed me to practice and keep improving my skills. I've got a long way to go, but I very much enjoy the process of sharpening knives. Never really understood how much...

    Where were you 20 years ago this morning?

    We had several police officers who were in the National Guard or the Reserves. The Reserves officers were deployed first and it was probably less than six months after the event we had over 12 vacancies at the PD from officers being deployed. We didn't see some of them again for almost two and...

    Where were you 20 years ago this morning?

    I can't imagine what it must have been like to be in the military when that event occurred. Was it chaotic overall or was there a plan in place for something like that as far as the posture of the personnel and contingency plans. I know the military usually has a plan for everything on some level. .

    Where were you 20 years ago this morning?

    I had been with the police department for about 4 years and was, at that time, a 911 Police/Fire dispatcher. I had worked a 12-hour shift 2pm-2am. I had stayed up for a couple of hours after I got home, that job always keyed you up and it was hard to just go to bed, so I stayed up until my...

    What Is the Best AR-15 Sling?

    Thanks for the info. My Colt is not a lightweight rifle for sure. It's not the heaviest AR I've ever had but it's not the lightest either so something to distribute the weight of it would be definitely be high on my list as far as slings.

    What Is the Best AR-15 Sling?

    I actually run the Armageddon Gear sling the author writes about. I've ran it for about three years and it's held up well on my My Colt M4. I had the previous iteration of the Armageddon Carbine Sling without the bungie and it was a pretty good sling but the bungie version is better as far as...

    What Are the Best Pistol Sights for Old Eyes?

    I really the combo tritium/fiber optic sights coming out these days, particularly the TFX PRO sights. They have the very bright front sight in orange but also a tritium vial on the front and a tritium rear sight. I have these on several of my handguns now and they seem to be very easy to pick up...

    Do earbuds work in an indoor range?

    I bought a pair of Ghost Stryke Extreme ear buds about three months ago. the first set I received had a faulty right ear bud. It crackled very badly and seemed to make the whole system not work very well. Customer service was actually very good, after I called them, they shipped out a new pair...

    "Ain't found a way to kill me yet" Revisited.

    When I was about 7 years old I decided to poke a red wasp nest that they'd built in a shrub in my grandfather's front yard. I grew up in the country, so you'd think I'd have known better but curiosity got the better of me. I took a curtain rod out of my grandfather's garage stood by the shrub...

    Should I carry a spare magazine

    I'm in the habit of checking my handgun and my spare mag/mags out after I get home from running around. The mag pouches I use keep the mags from getting dirty for the most part, but I check them anyway. I do routine maintenance on my handguns and my mags to make sure they are oiled, free of...

    Another p320 "accidental discharge"

    My sister kept a Hi-Point .45ACP as a home defense weapon for years. She never cleaned it, and very rarely shot it, if ever. Every great once in a while, I would ask to take it to the range with me. It was a full size .45ACP, I think it held 9 or 10 rounds. It was one of the strangest handguns...
