    That's kind of what I was thinking. I like the idea of maintaining a rear aperture or ghost ring sight on the receiver. Most of the mounts that I've seen prevented the use of iron sights without...

    I haven't fooled with it, but I thought this could be a solution for a forward mounted RDS on a 92. Figured a micro Aimpoint in a low mount may work.

    Sorry to hear that. I wish I had picked up his M-1 carbine books when they were more readily available. From what I gather, they are the books to have on the subject.

    Perhaps not bougie, but I’ve come to enjoy chicory coffee the most and typically use a plain old drip coffee pot. The French Market brand Publix sell seems to be more affordable than Cafe du Monde...

    My wife gave me Braun Series 7 for Christmas and I've been extremely happy with it. It actually does as good a job as my safety razor does. For reference, I used a Norelco with the three rotating...

    I have CLS bags, which seem pretty similar to this, in the cabin and pickup truck. An IFAK stays in my shooting bag itself.

    For the OP - make sure that you are actually familiar with using...

    It’s been a few years, but I guess it really depends on the municipality involved. When I lived there, I did mine through the Lacey Police Department (Thurston County) and they had me in and out for...

    My Gerber multi-tool was one of the most useful things the Army ever issued me. My ASEK not so much. A good folding knife would probably be appreciated and actually get used. You can baton wood with...

    It depends if it’s still an item made in the US, I think. I have one of their waterfowl jackets that is a few years old now and it is great, except for having shrunk a little. The replacement that I...

    Don't worry about the shotgun itself too much. Just go with his semi-auto of choice and spend time shooting skeet of sporting clays to learn how to use it. I grew up shooting Remingtons, so I use an...

    Regarding your second point, I don’t think they will. In my Rossi 92 clone, I’ve found that .38 SPLs with an OAL less than approximately 1.5” don’t cycle well at all. I suspect that .38 SC would be...

    I can second the Fiocchi wadcutters for reliability and accuracy in my 642. I also wish I had a second 642 and would swipe another up for $360.

    I could see the Eotech reticle being a benefit for using under NVGs, but I'm really don't think that you're going to gain anything by going to a 30mm tube. The micro Aimpoint gets all of the ambient...
