It's important to prep for the scenarios you think you might face. I'm not sure if Zombie Bob is kin to Rob Zombie, but I am all spun up for the dance, just in case. I feel bad about those two dropped shots with the Para LTC9... PS: Why do targets put the A-Zone on the noggin above the eyebrows? Is ...

...but it's real hard to feign much enthusiasm about it at what my hindbrain is telling me is 0mygod30 in the AM. I'm abandoning my roomie to her typing and heading to Nat'l Gun Day in L'ville. Back later!...

As I mentioned elsewhere, it was too cold for pins, and so some impromptu steel stages were set up. The first one was pretty simple, just five steel plate targets set up at varying heights and distances, but all around ten yards out or so; one shot per target, three runs, keep your best time. The th...

Marko has another post up about the joys of taking pen in hand. There are a few dissenters in comments; unsurprisingly we're looking at things from the other hand. Literally. I’m left handed. I’d rather write 130wpm with both hands than drag the heel of my hand through graphite or wet ink… -Va...

I got nothin'. If I wasn't one of those cynics who lumps psychology in with those other "-ologys" like phrenology or astrology, I might even say I was "depressed". I've been stuck in the house by the weather, and I've been fairly broke-ish for the last couple weeks, which has amplified my cabin feve...

I haven’t seriously blogged in years. I haven’t had the time, I’ve been busy living my life. My son is three, and a fun. My job is demanding, but rewarding. But with the crap coming out of the White House and Congress these days, I’m angry and I need a non-violent outlet. So ...

That metallic *ka-chink!* as a bayonet locks onto its lug. I opened my Big Box O' Bayonets, which has sat taped up since the move last year, and fitted pigstickers to the muzzles of... oh... say, fifteen or twenty rifles. The sword bayonets for Arisakas and Enfields are especially satisfying. I thin...

The winner of the Valentine give away is newlywed Sarah K. A big thanks to Emily from Hope for Life Biblical Counseling for giving us free stuff. A bigger “thank you” to all of you for sharing your heart. I think we need a group hug. It’s not my style to plug stuff on my blog. When peo...

If your disaster preparedness plan consists of throwing a can of Beanie Weenies into your ALICE pack, grabbing your SKS, strapping a colander to your face, and setting off to play Humungous, Lord of the Wasteland, in the local park, then you might want to rethink it. Even assuming you could live off...

I believe, we can talk of Christianity, and at the same time, not be idiots. I believe in a common sense type of believer. These think, these go into culture, to make a positive change. I am so tired, of close mindedness, blinding masses. It's time, we who call ourselves "believers", those who belie...
