Firearms Insurance

Decided to inventory the gun safes and document all of my guns and scopes. Put a replacement value on it and the number surprised me. I guess when you get tired of one and don’t move them on you accumulate more than you would think.

Our homeowners insurance will only let us put a rider up to $10000 without and inventory including serial numbers.

What are others doing for your collections. I am avoiding talking value but let’s guess just bumping against 6 figures for all the pistols, rifles, AR’s, shotguns, muzzleloaders and scopes. It’s a working collection, not a collectors collection.

Homemade knife

The knife fight thread got me to thinking about this knife:

IMG_0328.jpeg


I’m not sure where my grandpa (born in 1901) got it, or if he made it, but it came to me when he passed in 1989. I’ve never used it, nor have I seen it used, but it’s still shaving sharp. No clue what kind of metal but it attracts a magnet.

Nine inches overall, with a 5 in blade.

IMG_0329.jpeg


The handle seems to be wrapped in some sort of plastic wrap. I thought it was plastic-wrapped wire but it’s not heavy enough for wire, and it doesn’t attract a magnet.

IMG_0330.jpeg


IMG_0332.jpeg


The sheath has a metal liner in what appears to be some sort of rubber-lined hose material.

IMG_0331.jpeg


IMG_0333.jpeg



No idea how old it is. The phrase “Try it you’ll like it” was popularized in 1971 as part of an Alka-Seltzer ad campaign but he could have written it later. Looks pretty wicked.

Ballistic-X App - Update inbound...Give us Feedback!

Development begins this Monday for a revamp of layout, added features for base App, and additional features in the Advanced Toolkit. From the start, the App has been $7.99 for life. No ads or gimmicks and the App has grown in features since then. The Toolkit was a means to generate additional funding ($9.99/year) for the Advanced user. This has been slow but intended to grow with comprehensive logs and data, which will be happening this time around. App Development is not cheap! Mean Radius was the main feature behind the paywall, but after Hornady ripped off the App and included Mean Radius in their version, we went ahead and included it in our Base App. I’m very pro capitalist and pro competition as it’s great for consumers but the unoriginality annoyed me. I also realize any future work I do is essential R&D for them to copy…but I digress. We have had complaints of those that purchased the base App and were upset that the other functions were not accessible, resulting in a bad review. It was never my intention to be gimmicky like that but the distinction between base App and Toolkit has not been as clear as it should have been. Other bad reviews have been almost 100% misunderstanding of functions or the App coming unstable after a phone update. It’s surprising how many are upset that the App “doesn’t support 300 BLK caliber”. With the crashes, we generally resolve them within a day or two, but the negative reviews are seldom rectified. If you’ve used our App, we’d love a review to help offset that! Anyhow, onto the coming updates:

First up is Auto-Targets. Lots of people have requested Auto Impact marking but that’s actually the last thing on the list for Automation. Having printable targets that the App can recognize means one could print, shoot, then hover App camera, which then auto aligns and captures image. Size Reference and Point Of Aim can both be easily established and automated. Impacts perhaps could be as well but with more variables with precision stacking, which would require manual override…which gets a bit in the weeds.

From the start of the App, I’ve wanted to add metrics and accountability to shooting. My frustration with cherry picked groups and “.5 MOA all day if I do my part” has never subsided. The merits of 3 round, 5 round, etc are well established and have been for years. A 10 round group is cool and sure, is a better representation of the rifle…but in most cases, every round cannot be accounted for which means the your left with messing ES/Extreme Spread.

Here are the parameters:

1. Standard 8.5x11”
2. Precise POA
3. POA 1 MOA/.3 MIL lower than POI so impacts do not alter POA
4. 3x 3 round Groups so each impact can be accounted. 5x per can be done but more likely to not be able to distinguish all 5 impacts.

This makes the target accessible for everyone for data at 100 yards. It gives 3x groups which will output standard MOA results and standard MOA average between the 3. A new Overlay will take all 3groups and combine them with a data taking each impact and averaging them rather than taking the average of each 3 shot group and averaging them. This first target will be a proof of concept and subsequent target will be built off of it. Other targets and training drills we be available as well, some from known names in the Precision shooting community! (Second image is a free printable target online; I’ll be making a BX specific with open space for the aggregate image and for hand written data).

So there you have it…”shoot holes” in the concept and give any feedback we can make the best solution for the shooting community!

Presidential Medal of Freedom

While it was absurd when Ellen DeGeneres got one from Obama, when PedoPeter got one from Obama, when Liz Cheney got one from Pedopete, pale in comparison to the more recent medal of freedom recipients: treasonous HRC and terrorist George Soros!

NYPD New Year's Rifle

On New Year's Eve, a friend of mine sent me some photos and video his son had shot. His son works in Manhattan, and he photographed a cop (hopefully) with a big ol' sniper rifle.

My understanding is that this thing is a Sako which costs about $12,000 before glass. That's the price for people who actually pay for it, although these guns were provided to the NYPD in a high-profile transaction, so maybe they got a deal.

My question: if Chris Kyle got by with a $6,500 rifle, why did the NYPD need this Sako?

I checked Sako's website, and it looks like it's full of sales BS, but I am no sniper.

They say this thing can be worked on by the user. Well, I work on my guns just fine, and I am incapable of real gunsmithing. And police departments have unions that would never go for taking work away from full-time armorers.

They say you can swap the barrel for different jobs. If you can afford a $12,000 gun, can't you afford more guns and leave the barrels where they are? Maybe I'm ignorant, but what professional sniper wants to swap barrels after he gets his gun just right? It makes no sense to me. How would you keep your zero? And if you have to swap barrels before leaving the station, doesn't it mean you're an incompetent who has no idea what the mission is? Shouldn't you have all that stuff figured out before the call comes?

The whole thing mystifies me. You can walk into Bass Pro and buy a reliable 0.75-MOA rifle whenever you want, so what is the purpose of this thing? No cop needs more accuracy than that.

Okay, tell me why I'm wrong. I just put my flameproof socks on.

For sale: Brand new, unfired Elite Sand Accuracy International AXSR in 7 PRC.

I’m moving this incredible piece because I don't even have the time to shoot my AT-XC. I bought it from Mile High this past fall, and it's been sitting unused since then.

This rifle features a premium Proof steel 26" barrel with a 1:8 twist, threaded 5/8x24, plus a self-timing Tuebor 30 cal titanium brake.

It comes complete with the factory box and manuals. Please note that the bipod is not included in this sale.

I’m open to considering a partial trade for an Impact short action with a .308 bolt face and a 75-degree throw. I would also entertain an Atlas or Infinty pistol in 9 or 40. Don’t miss out on adding this top-tier rifle to your collection!
