Turning 18.

Posted on March 17, 2013 by Oleg Volk

Three years ago, I took this photo of 15 year old Rachel. She had fun with the bolt action but had to shoot it from a support due to the stock length and considerable overall heft. Yesterday, I took photos … Continue reading →

Cold weather in Tennessee

Posted on February 27, 2013 by Oleg Volk

Today’s high was only 5*C (41*F) – the day was cold, dreary and wet. I must not have moved far enough South for a sufficiently warm winter. At least we had warm clothes available.

A rifle for a lady

Posted on February 18, 2013 by Oleg Volk

Should a rifle designed for women be more than the same action in a plastic pink stock? Savage obviously thinks so. Quality hardwood stock, Accu-trigger and sporter profile barrel added up to a very handy and well balanced rifle. In … Continue reading →

Hit the gym!

Posted on February 14, 2013 by Oleg Volk

Besides the obvious health benefits, more muscle means you can operate heavier toys. This DSA FAL is hefty — a heavy barrel, a 100rd Beta drum and a 2.5-10x optic do add up — but also capable of keeping up … Continue reading →

Independent women.

Posted on February 13, 2013 by Oleg Volk

In my long quest for a mate, I found that only independent women are interesting. Those who were wards of others — either incapable of independent judgement, or of feeding, sheltering or defending themselves — were not only uninteresting but … Continue reading →

In Tennessee, openly carried pistols and obvious long gun cases don’t get much attention. In other states, discretion is a good idea because of government agents and other thieves. Some people carry pistols in diaper bags on the assumption that … Continue reading →

Left-hand AR15

Posted on February 7, 2013 by Oleg Volk

Just because 9mm carbines are girly, doesn’t mean that smaller bores should be neglected. Sarah gets long with the RRA .223 for southpaws just fine. Range report in a few. Other trivia: you can see a Sykes-Fairburn dagger and clips … Continue reading →

Effective range of a 9×19 carbine.

Posted on February 7, 2013 by Oleg Volk

This is Sarah. She is 15 and left-handed, so a light 9mm carbine with left-hand ejection is a reasonable long gun for her. The carbine is topped with a 3x scope zeroed at 50 yards. With this being the reticle, … Continue reading →
