Remembering 9/11

By on September 11, 2010 in Uncategorized

On this tremendously important and sobering day in American history, it is vital that all of us take a moment to remember the events of September 11th, 2001.

Remember where you were when you learned that terrorists hijacked 4 jets full of innocent people only to use them as vulgar missiles.

Think about how those who were in the towers, on the jets, and those who lost loved ones must have seen and felt on that day.

Recall the bravery of the many police, fire fighters, medical personnel, and the heroic passengers of Flight 93.

Realize the sacrifice of those who are currently fighting wars against those who were responsible for this heinous act.

Take a moment to remember and never forget!

ST Action Pro Dummy Rounds

By on September 10, 2010 in Guns, Reviews, Tactics and Training

If you want to add realism to your home dry fire sessions then you need dummy rounds and the best dummy rounds that I have used are made by ST Action Pro. Dummy rounds are a must if you want to safely and realistically practice realistic reloads and malfunction clearance at home.

ST Action Pro Dummy Rounds consist of 2 parts: a real brass case (and in some cases a nickle plated brass case) and a brightly colored plastic insert. The real case makes them extremely durable. I have chambered some of my dummy rounds hundreds of times with little damage. The brightly colored case makes it nearly impossible to mistake these for real ammo.

It should be noted that these are dummy rounds, not snap caps. There is an empty cavity where the rubber bumper would normally be on a snap cap. However, these can be made into a snap caps relatively easily (sounds like a future Tactical Handyman post).

Take your dry fire training up a notch with ST Action Pro Dummy Rounds.

By on September 9, 2010 in Knives

The much anticipated Boker Plus Tom Krein Pocket Bowie is finally finding it’s way to dealer shelves. This knife is the result of a collaboration between Boker and knife maker Tom Krein. Krein has a reputation for great handles and scary sharp edges. This Boker Plus Pocket Bowie looks like it lives up to that reputation.

It features a 2 1/2″ blade crafted from 440C steel. The overall length is 4 3/4″. This really is a Pocket Bowie. It wears black G-10 scales with white spacers on its nicely shaped handle. The Pocket Bowie comes with an excellent looking kydex sheath all for a street price that is under $30!

This is going to be one hot seller.
