I don't think there is much similarity between relinquishing the bases and presence in the Philippines to what happened in Afghanistan. For example, do not believe that the former resulted in...
It's almost always going to reduce to "see what you need to see" for any given shot. As people progress and their relationship to the sights (or an alternate sighting method such as using the top of...
I haven't looked at modern numbers, but when I lived in California in the late 1980s and early 1990s, Filipinos were the largest subgroup by population among all of the Asian & Pac Islander...
Violation of in thread warning. No politics outside politics subforum.
See you in a week.

Correct.
I was disheartened when their government essentially kicked us out of Subic Bay naval station and Clark AFB. I'm curious if now they might be looking back at that as a bigger mistake...
Maybe start with a new slide without any dovetails cut?
The Spyderco ball bearing lock is interesting. Some day I'm going to take one apart and compare to and Axis Lock. I know it's enough different to avoid patent infringement when Benchmade's patent...
The Native Chief in your first link is another that appeals to me . . . "coming soon."
Nice knife, but too small!
Now, a Salt Series Police 4 Lightweight in Magnacut would be very difficult for me to resist.
Thanks!
If they do an XL version, I may not be able to resist.
I hope you're right. And I'll reiterate my agreement that it's sad and I really hope that he can emerge from this and still have some good years left.
It makes me wonder how many people are...
I know nothing of coply procedures and practices, and I'm one of the pariahs who thinks that open carry is okay in a lot of circumstances, but even I could predict what was going to happen based on...
Is that a Salt series Manix lightweight?
Ugh, indeed!
If the Apex voids the warranty and they won't sell the trigger separately . . . the choices are:
1. Live with the stock trigger (the one I have sucks).
2. Buy a new gun with the...
I have little interest in the legal minutia involved here, but I do have some interest in the human element. I doubt if I'm the only person thinking "why the hell would he do this?" and I know some...

Truth. The agency which I worked seemed to funnel the incompetent into section chief positions, then from that pool, picked the real winners to be branch chiefs, etc. up the chain. The truly...
Both Wharncliffe and sheepsfoot blade patterns provide the same advantages of a box cutter-type blade, but none of the disadvantages. The straight edge allows the user to easily exert pressure near...
This is disappointing and sad in every conceivable way. I had no idea any of the events discussed in this topic were happening until last night and it was a surprise to say the least. It's tragic...
It's unfortunate that not enough people notice that "they" have a long track record of accusing others of doing what they did, are doing, and will do in the future. They're undisputed Intergalactic...
I was an "early adopter" of Spyderco back in the 1980s when they were the only game in town for both one-hand opening as well as pocket clips. I carried an original Police model in my hand all the...
I can't imagine a day when the power players in California will ever concede on this issue, even if the USSC rules on it in favor of regular people.
I sent a message to S&W a couple of days ago inquiring about getting the new trigger for the M&P9 2.0 (not Shield) that came with the older type of hinged trigger. No response yet!
Interesting! That never would have occurred to me, so thanks for sharing that information.
It took me a while to embrace using two hands, but for guns without a slide racker or something else to prop them a little, it's the best method (so far) in terms of risk management. The fact that...
