    What safe are you using?

    Re: What safe are you using? I acquired this recently. I have yet to make an interior for it to store firearms. The measurements are nice on the inside such that everything will line up without having to remove one gun to access another. I will make a set of shelves on top for documents...

    headlamps

    Re: headlamps Surefire Saint or Princeton Tec EOS II. The Saint is just awesome in form, fit, and function (warning: I'm an SF fanboy) and the EOS is compact, cheap, and they've been installing warm tinted LEDs which is much more favorable over the angry blue or purple tints most of the...
