    Walking Sticks & Canes.

    I totaled my car a month ago, and was lucky to come out in one piece. Busted both my knees into the dashboard as the airbag didn't work and the right one is still pretty sore. Actually using a light cane for a little support, so it is interesting to re-read this thread.

    Who else grinds coffee?

    My wife and I are in Kona, Hawaii right now for our 30th Anniversary and just got back from touring Mountain Thunder Coffee Ranch. Fascinating place and we learned a lot. Wonderful gourmet coffee and some wonderfully nice folks. If you ever get here, you must take the tour...

    What type of umbrella do you favor?

    I started carrying a golf umbrella in my car years ago for pure practicality as it covers myself and my bride better than a regularly sized one. Classy or elegant? Absolutely not. The picture GHT posted is pure elegance, well done, Sir!

    You are aware Col. Jeff Cooper was a huge fan of the Krag? And I wish I could find a Model 12 in 12 ga here to bob the barrel! Got a nice 16 gauge doing house duty right now.

    Sounds real nice Picard! Congrats! Oh, I started a post on FB about how many have put a dimple in their ceiling from a 1911 recoil plug. I am definitely not alone in that!

    OldSarge, some friends of mine who served on the Illinois State Police carried 9mm for years and all swore by the 115 grain +P JHP rounds. They hated the 124 grain subsonics that they carried until switching to .40s.

    Today's Kahr built Tommys use either a slightly elongated hole in the magazine itself, or you will need to modify the mag catch itself. I have a bunch of modified mags so I didn't do the mag catch on mine. If you do the mod to the catch, you can use original mags.

    Air rifles are fascinating, in the US the famed Lewis and Clark Expedition used them as they crossed and mapped the Louisiana Territory.

    Renault, I really like that beast. I may have some old 300 Savage ammo here, I will look for it as brass can be hard to find sometimes for those. Huertacilla, a very nice job on your saddle gun!

    Trouble with blades

    Gotta agree with Feraud, it's is a very nice collection piece. If you must cut the notches, use a Dremel tool with a cutting disc to avoid the blade shattering from the pressure of shears.

    Vintage Police Uniforms

    Someone asked earlier about the changes in leather as far as holsters go. Well, cost, maintenance and weight all come into play here. One, GOOD holsters are expensive, yeah, you can get a cheap one that will fall apart in a fight or spend upwards of $75 just for a good holster. A serious belt...

    Most converters are screw in that use a twist or pump mechanism to fill from a bottle.
