Two movies in one day.
I have not gone to the movies in a very long time. Today, I ended up watching two in a row. First was Brave 3D, which I very much recommend. The trailer for it did not do the movie justice. … Continue reading
Fun with massive firepower
Linoge from Walls of the City brought this shotgun last month. It was a lot of fun.

The very adjustable SSG08
I will be posting a practical comparison between SSG08 and SSG69 later this summer. One is adjustable but the other has the charm of simplicity. Shown here with the old version of 3.5-15×56 Nightforce scope.
24″ RFB in use
4-16x Vortex scope, Gemtech Sandstorm suppressor, Magpul VFG, RSA and sling. Same but with Keltec muzzle brake instead of the suppressor, and with Viridian X5L RS on the rail. I can’t wait to get it zeroed. Federal and Hornady both … Continue reading
The heffalumps are in trouble…
And speaking of A.A.Milne — does anyone know why all the texts of “Winnie the Pooh” are gone from the Internet all of a sudden?

Good article on rape prevention
On a blog with the funniest header graphic. And he does have my position correctly pegged: rape, along with other physical crimes against another person, should be a capital offense at the attempt stage. Minor quibble: I’d estimate the number … Continue reading
After the safety rules, the next most important thing…

New on CTD blog: Why Such an Emphasis on Accuracy?
How inherent rifle accuracy contributes to the ultimate success of an important shot.
My favorite 308 rifle.
After 8 months, my new 7.62 suppressor tax stamp finally got approved by ATF. My RFB has been restored to the correct configuration. YHM BUIS, 1-4x illuminated scope and (not shown here) Viridian laser on the quad rail. With 4x … Continue reading

A petite bolt action rifle
AAC Micro 7 in 300BLK with Cyclone-K suppressor
Advantage Tactical Sight update
Installed that barrel on a 12ga 870. It points just about perfectly, just need to verify zero with slugs.

Going through the mail bag…red dot magnifier
One thing I love about travel is that I usually come back to a whole bunch of new toys in the mail. Put these together and you get a swing-out magnifier for red dot sights. Could be useful around the … Continue reading
Flash hider for 10-22
Over a decade ago, back in the AWB years, I saw a Levang “linear compensator” and wanted it in lieu of the forbidden birdcage flash hider. At the NRA show, my friend Glenn gave me this cute device. Lacking a … Continue reading
Should I give another try to wing shooting?
I am a notoriously bad shotgunner. Part of this is the lack of practice — I get much better a couple hundred of rounds into practice session. But I get 3 of 25 after a long break, which suggests that … Continue reading
Same brand, not the same image
If you click to zoom in on the images, you can see comparative prices (19.5 Czech Crown = 1 USD), though local salaries are a bit lower than the US also.
