    The Terminal List

    So I watched a podcast interview that Jack Carr did with Chris Pratt. Something I noticed in nearly every advert, interview or reference to the Amazon show was that it is an "adaptation" of the book.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Saw a guy open carrying

    Wow. A bunch of Tactical Timmy's and gear snobs who spend 90% of their time posting in the ".45 is better than 9mm" threads or the "Do these Crye pants make my dick look small" topic, acting like some judgy twats on an episode of The View. To the OP, I get it. Yes, open carry has fallen out...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns What Flashlight?

    Does it work when you turn it on? Does it eat batteries like crazy? If you drop it from 6ft onto cement, will it survive? Will it leak if you drop it in a puddle? Is the money you're paying justified if you get all the same issues with something high end that you do low end? Personal...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Holster options

    I didn't get too specific because I want to know what all my options are. It's a RIA Tac FS. The problem I run into is not many (if any) manufacturers list RIA. But they aren't the only ones who make them with a rail. Particularly safariland. Didn't specify a price because I want to see as...

    Gunsmithing XLR Industries Element 3.0

    Made a shim from some scrap kydex. It's a snug fit and there's a little bit of side to side play. But no twisting or anything. Even just a dry fit and that mag wasn't coming out no matter how much I tried. But it fed and the latch worked just fine. Thanks.
