This is such a wonderful, cathartic thread.

When I was in college I worked at our Outdoor Pursuits Center and we rented out those plastic material Old Town canoes. I have many great memories with...

Definitely my 1946 S&W .38/44. It belonged to my Grandpa who unfortunately passed before I was born and I never got a chance to meet. We found it in a shoebox in my Grandma's closet. I also...

Monte Montgomery is awesome! I've seen him live 11 times.

+1 to this and RevolverRob. It's a great idea to have dedicated "sterile" bags that you only use for travel and never put anything in that can't pass security.

Another great idea I picked up from...

Thanks for the feedback folks! Just placed my order Tony, I look forward to it.

I’ve been happily carrying my G19 in an IWB 3 for over a year now. I just got a Surefire X300 for mine so I will be ordering another holster to fit the light.

Any advice as far as cant with the...

I had a squib round of one 4-5 years ago that destroyed the barrel of a G26. Remington replaced the barrel for us and refunded the ammo.

My dad gave me a small Sebenza with carbon fiber handles as a present for getting my first "big boy job" earlier this year. I was a little wary at first carrying a knife worth 8x as much as the...

I'm building my first AR. I already have the lower (the PSA classic). For an upper, I was thinking either this,

Ordered one for my S&W Shield! I've worn my G19 in an IWB 3 for about a year now and absolutely love it.

Per Tom's earlier point it doesn't make much sense that they single out these brands for this reason. Per their logic, Camelbak water bottles and Bell bicycle helmets are evil because of their...

REI is a wonderful place....to find/try on what you want so you can buy it for $20 less on Amazon.

Are there any holsters yet that will support a G19 with this light?

Greg Abbott is just a figurehead, everyone knows Willie is the REAL Governor of Texas.

Here's a video of him performing on the debut episode of Austin City Limits, back when it was a TV show and...

I thought the mechanics were going to execute me if they didn't find it. I was told that it wasn't the worse thing someone had ever done though. Apparently, a visitor once flushed a lav while a plane...

Here’s a not-so cool story about a cool job.

It’s called “How the Intern Dropped a Flashlight and Almost Grounded a 737”

I am a Maintenance Planner for a major airline. Before that, I was an...

I wholeheartedly agree. Classes that address these subjects and teach these strategies should be required in every high school, maybe even every middle school. The campus PD at the college I just...

Gavin de Becker's excellent book "The Gift of Fear" addresses that very thing. There's a whole chapter dedicated to dispelling the notion of trying to "let someone down easy."

It's a great book...

I grew up in Northwest Austin and spent my high school years in Cedar Park (go Timberwolves!). For as long as I can remember, 6th Street and West Campus have always had the reputation as being dens...

Warby Parker is a website for ordering prescription glasses. They have a service where you can pick 5 different frames and they will mail you the samples. You can try each pair on at home, keep the...

Southwest still contracts out maintenance to ATS, as well as several other firms located both domestically and internationally. Almost every airline does this now because it saves them boat-(Or...
