    CZ P - 10C

    Do the standard P10s run serrations on top the slide too?

    CZ P - 10C

    That can be an issue with external compensators but not with ported barrels. I am prepared to except that the former is the more effective device but the latter doesn't really have any downside as to the function of the pistol, particularly when the ported section of the barrel is counterbored.

    CZ P - 10C

    Well, if you are thinking of getting something more "modern" as you put it only do so if you want to, not because you think you need to because you don't. That said I tread down this very same path last year with an M&P Carry Comp with all the tactical goodies. In my case I sold off two other...

    CZ P - 10C

    What else did you want? Also I think this style comp, port or whatever you want to call it is probably the best way to do it for a carry/duty/bedside gun. No hindrance to disassembly or function, very low profile and simple.

    .338 ARC just might be a winner!

    I am interested in this cartridge for being the 9x39 Grom we have at home although the 338 ARC seems the superior cartridge. A suppressed AR15 SBR in .338 ARC would be a lot of fun. In terms of full power supersonics what kind of performance does this cartridge have compared to the big...

    Going to have an AR built, need optic options…

    Then get a Romeo 4XT Pro and a good 3x magnifier then. That's what I'd get right now if I had a new rifle. Good all-round setup. If you mix and match optic/magnifier brands, and you might because EoTech's magnifiers are probably the best, make sure the height of the optic mount and magnifier...

    Undertaking a blade reclamation project

    I suppose I should try again to reassemble my Mini Griptilian Custom. I have the replacement Omega springs. I tried putting back together once but I couldn't figure it out. I think I know a way now, its just a matter of finding the patience and desire to mess with it. After that I'll...

    US Military Scrambles For Ways To Protect Bases From Drone Warfare

    Roving guards with shotguns. Anti-drone drones equipped with shotguns. Once again the scatter gun has risen from the grave and found a new role in the military. Also any kind of munition that be equipped with programmable electronic fuses. Might be time to dust off the old 25mm grenade...

    Something sexy(new knife) this way comes.

    I it is sharp. Very sharp from the factory and I honed the edge with ceramics. It is tissue paper slicing sharp. I cut myself from using my knife as a fidget gadget as I am wont to do with a new blade, blade came down of the tip of my finger as I flicked it shut. The steel seems fine, so far...

    I'm absolutely fine and am in fact desirous of detaching Isreal from our hip. I wish Isreal no ill will but I am tired of getting dragged into their bullshit over and over again. The Palestinians can go fuck themselves too, I have zero sympathy for those rats

    I have seen headlines that the cease-fire lasted 12 minutes, I have seen headlines that the "fragile cease-fire is holding" Just what the hell is going on over there?! Trump is right, they really don't know what the fuck they are doing over there.

    Is the cease-fire still holding up? Or is Iran back to getting exploded? To be clear I don't give two half shits about Iran or its people, I just don't want us to be involved. Deport all the Muslim diaspora back to the middle east and cordon off the whole region escape from NY style I say. Let...

    I really, really, really hope this cease-fire turns into a hostilities ended situation. However the cease-fire in Ukraine didn't hold, the Israeli-Palestinian cease-fire didn't hold why would this one? If annihilating Iran's nuclear facilities through a freakin' mountain is the extra inducement...

    Thoughts on Capacity/Caliber for Carry

    Any quality 9mm bounded JHP will be sufficient fir self defense. The less powerful. 38 Special has long proven itself sufficient for self defense. 9mm is cheaper, easier to find and provides better follow up shot control than the other 2 main pistol cartridges. Still when limited to 10 rounds I...

    The New Sig Sauer P211

    Pre realization that SIG is a POS company I would have considered purchasing one of these. Now however, well SIG is in the same category as Springfield Armory and Rock River arms: on the never ever buy list.

    Undertaking a blade reclamation project

    The weirdest and perhaps fanciest of my knives, the ZT 460. I thought this one was gonna break my heart, the carbon fiber side was covered in scratches and the action felt like it was full of sand to the point it would not flip open freely. The scratches turned out to be just marks that wiped...

    Yeah, prices are nuts now. I did a quick price check on various mount I consider GTG- LaRue is charging $400 for their mounts now and while the are good mounts that is way overpriced. ADM is running $220-$270 for their mounts which is more reasonable Midwest Industries run right around $200...

    Ah yes, the inevitable consequence to getting a new knife. Got blood all over the scale too. But a little water, a drop of hand soap and a toothbrush cleaned it right up. Re-oiled and good as new. The blade had that no pain cut sharpness BTW

    I concur actually. I'm just saying if the Army actually completes the adoption of 6.8x51, and it won't, they will have been better served by something like 6mm Arc. A humble Midwest Industries QD mount which has given me good service so far. Trigger is tge excellent LaRue MBT 2 stage. I did...

    And here it is, the Spyderco Manix 2 "CruCarta" Cruwear steel blade with canvas micarta scales and a ball bearing lock- Cruwear can be thought of as super D2, a semi-stainless steel that has high toughness and edge retention but is superior to D2 is all respects. I have never used a knife with...

    The weight is only something like 10% more, if we can get a 25 round magazine that is the same size as a 30 round 5.56 I'd say we were in business. Ideally we'd take this cartridge and narrow and lengthen for better packaging but since we are married to the small frame AR form factor it is what...

    Do you suppose it will become an established cartridge? It's parent 6.5 Grendel never seemed to have moved beyond a niche cartridge. Then again apparently some as yet unnamed SOCOM unit is doing a field trial with Geisele 6mm ARC uppers as sort of a new SPR program. That Geisele GFR is...

    My "Blade Remediation" project has given me an itch for a new blade. Working 6 days/ 65 hours a week has given me the freedom to scratch it. I won't fully disclose what I got just yet other than to say a "CruCarta" is inbound soon.

    I find G10 and Carbon Fiber to be resistant to wear and tear, particularly the former. Titanium is impervious to anything other than scratches. The aluminum scales of my 940 Osborne have taken a hellacious beating from bouncing around all tossed together with my other knives however. I...

    Oh, yeah that is the new Magpul TMag. Apparently they suck. I wish I had seen about that before I bought 4 of em. I guess I'll need to test them to see if they are problematic. They look cool at least.

This wasn't a completely frivolous exercise in aesthetics either. I like the new Magpul stocks and the...
