I'm not too hard up over the first watch to summit Everest mystery, but that particular advertisement is carefully worded to not make that claim, only that Rolex provided watches to the Hunt...

Here's the summary - 2000 rounds without cleaning, no malfunctions.
Mine is the discontinued 39mm Explorer (214270). Just about perfect for my wrist.
The Explorer is the 'stealth' Rolex. As others have mentioned, it is the watch for all occasions. Dress it up,...

I haven't watched the series yet (it's next on the watchlist after Shogun), but I think the movie was Guy Ritchie's best work since Snatch, and one of Hugh Grant's best roles ever. So good to hear...
Wilson Combat also eliminated it for the EDC X9.
I'm agnostic as to whether a manufacturer deletes the grip safety. Presumably for service use such a firearm would need to pass agency testing as...
Apologies - I think my response to Tokarev is responsible for a bit of thread drift. I was commenting on the OA decision to omit the grip safety; Atlas is clearly marketed in a different direction...
I suspect there are two factors - first is cost savings. Why fit, blend, and tune a grip safety if you can mold the polymer frame/grip module to delete it?
The second reason is that many...
Small sample size, but in my personal experience, the double-stack Staccato design has proven far more reliable than a single stack 9mm 1911. While the 2011 magazine leaves something to be desired...

It's a little early to tell, but no issues to report after 1,240 logged rounds.
Thanks for that article - I thought this was the most interesting statement as Staccato has frowned upon users servicing the grip frame in the past...
In fact, Mr. Jarrett told us that it might be...
It's not always easy to tell, and Staccato's naming convention sure doesn't help ("let's use the model name for our discontinued compact single stack to represent our latest double stack that will...
I suspect this is the longer grip module (Instagram post by Todd Jarrett)

Lots of EVs around here, but I've yet to see an EV fire. Seen a few ICE fires though; last one was in December. Was memorable as it was a squad car.

Rogue One is the only Star Wars movie of any worth released after the original trilogy.
I was a bit surprised to see a 4" PDP Steel Compact.
I've never understood why Springfield took a pass on the marketing layup of a MEUSOC tie-in. They weren't shy about marketing their FBI selection. They weirdly threw pachmayr grips on the Operator...
The C2 may well still suck me in - I'm pretty invested in 2011 magazines at this point.
Though compared with the original P, it really isn't that far off (4" vs 4.15" barrel). The aluminum frame C will certainly be lighter than the P. But the C with the longer grip will actually...
