      Consider getting licensed

      Like many folks, I don't want to go without comms in any type of SHTF situation, whether tornado, fire, or man-made. To that end, several years ago, I bought a box full of GMRS radios. I figured that if I needed them, I'd figure them out at that time. I paid the $70 (at that time) for the...

      Linux Uber Allen- tablet edition

      Today is prime day and one of the deals is a 7" Amazon Fire tablet for $40. I picked one up with the intent to do a full Linux install. I'll document the process here if it works.

      Over the road drivers: What comms are used now days?

      For those that make a living on the road, what comm radios are in use now days? Is CB still the main tool of the road or is it now GMRS? If GMRS, is there a standard channel, like channel 19 from the old days? Or, is it still the CB on channel 19 that road info is passed along? I do a trip...

      Auto A/C Refurb

      I'm working on getting an old '98 BMW 3 series back to daily driver status and the A/C is the next item on the list to restore to working order. When I plug an A/C manifold set in, I'm getting a slightly higher reading pressure when static on the high side. Low is about 89psi and high is...

      Configuring Comms: Best practices?

      Sorry if this is covered elsewhere but I didn't find anything specifically regarding how comm networks are set up for various scenarios. I'm working on my Technicial license and am looking at what config would make sense give different situations. What is everyone doing in terms of configuring...

      Minutemen Rifle

      OK, let's say that patriotism took hold with the masses (wishful thinking), and a rifle spec was created to fulfill the Minuteman criteria. This would be a rifle that every red-blooded American would own and would shoot until proficient. It would be the rifle that any of us would grab should the...

      Favorite AR Configs

      A little while back, I was watching a vid on a review of a higher end AR and the guy (can't remember who it was now) made the comment that your first AR should be a basic, lower tier shooter grade gun. His idea was that you buy a good AR and then shoot the heck out of it while figuring out what...

      New furniture on an older AR

      This is the first AR I ever bought, back in 2009. I didn’t know squat about ARs then and bought a CA approved version of the M&P 15OR. As delivered, it had no flash hider, a fixed stock an 1 10 round mag. Over the years, it’s been modified a bit and now has a proper flash hider, A2 stock, LaRue...

      To Carry or Not To Carry?

      The 'To shoot or not to shoot' thread started me thinking about how many of us have guns that we won't carry out of concern for holster wear. I didn't want to hijack that thread, so I started this one. The one gun that I have that has never seen the inside of a holster is a Dan Wesson A2 full...

      Worlds oldest active submarine

      Obsolete handguns?

      The O word has been tossed about a lot lately due to the availability of larger capacity micro guns. Tim, over on the Military Arms Channel has been suggesting that the Glock 19 is now obsolete due to the availability of the 17 round Sig P365 Macro. What does INGO say on that matter? From my...

      Lessons learned in the GPM shooting

      Before the dupe police shut this one down, this is not a dupe of the break room discussion, but instead a focus on what we can learn or confirm from the Greenwood Park Mall shooting. The Break Room discussion is largely political, this one is more practical. Let’s talk through the shooting in...

      When did the ATF begin to photograph 4473s?

      I have heard that several years back, ATF agents would photograph 4473s when doing an audit of gun shops. Later, the 4473 was modified to put both firearm info and buyer info on the same page to make it easier to photograph. First, is it true that ATF agents will routinely photograph 4473s when...

      Evolution of the Carry Mindset

      I thought it would be interesting to discuss how our mindset around carry has evolved as our time with EDC of a firearm stretches out. Non LEO’s all experienced that initial carry stress where in our mind, everyone notices the gun. That feeling in the first couple of days of carry that feel like...

      Winter Gun Projects 2022

      What is everyone spending time on this winter in terms of gun stuff. Anything that you tend to do in the winter more than you do in the summer? For me, it’s typically reloading. I reload all year long but in January through February, I reload the bulk of what I’ll shoot that year. Cold winter...

      Lawyer recommendation needed

      A bit of idiocy on the part of my youngest son now puts me in search of a recommendation for a lawyer that is experienced in handling DUI cases. Fortunately, there were no injuries or an accident due to his idiocy. I’d like to go over options and don’t want to see him do anything else stupid in...

      Optic info site

      About a year ago, I was searching for optic info and I recall looking at a website that collected info on all types of optics, including who manufactured them for various brands. The site had an odd name and I remember bookmarking it because I knew that I’d never remember it. I was right. I...

      Thumbler’s Tumbler drive belt

      I had the drive belt break on my tumbler tonight. Has anyone source something that would work locally or is that just something that needs ordered? I have seen gas tank sender O-rings about the same size but am not sure if those are easy to find outside of an online parts site. And, if I’m going...

      Over-investment in a handgun

      Hall of shame time INGO! Post up the guns that you threw money at that either didn't pay off in terms of liking the finished product or, guns that turned out nice but could return less than half the amount invested should you decide to sell them. My first offering is my Gen 4 G23. I like this...
