https://www.garmin.com/en-US/p/815582#undefined WOW $3,200 USD for a "smartwatch" that will be technically obsolete within 5 years :eek: I would much rather spend $3200 USD this way: $2700 USD for a nice Swiss or German watch with a chronometer certified mechanical movement, which I can wear...

At the riflerange: suppressor, active muffs, disposable foam plugs While hunting: suppressor, active muffs

I bought a pair of these a few years ago, they have been excellent at the range: https://www.3mdanmark.dk/3M/da_DK/p/d/b00015332/ I also own and use a 10 year old pair of Sordin Supreme Pro X with gel pads. They provide less dampening, but better sound quality, therefore I sue these for...

Shortterm: This will adversely affect retail prices and availability worldwide :( Medium term: This might lead to copy-cat actions by other left wing governments, thereby causing problems for ordinary people :mad: Long term: Nothing nice ....... Btw. Reuters say in their article that the story...

For the last two deer hunting seasons I have gralloched in the field using a Havalon Forge with a blunt tipped blade, model nr. 70A https://www.havalon.com/70a-stainless-steel-havalon Before that I used a Mora Companion https://morakniv.se/en/knife-series/companion/ The parting and de-boning...

"Zeiss rail" mounts for the Sako 85 is available from 3. parties. The Zeiss rail system easily tops traditional rings in a beauty contest: https://www.optics-trade.eu/en/maklassic-2-piece-pivot-mount-rotation-lock-sako-75-85-zeiss-zm-vm-rail.html However the Sako owners I know, speak...

Last month I bought a Leica Magnus riflescope from a webshop in Germany. It is labeled "made in Portugal". The entire supply chain is likely to involve a number of countries and to change over time. it is usually not something a manufacturer want to reveal to the general public, so hard to...

For kitchen knives I use a Tormek T-1. It is an entirely different type of machine than the well known Tormek models. The first time a knife is sharpened using the machine, you have to spend some time getting the edge into the correct shape. Thereafter, touching up a knife takes five swipes on...

I own a Vortex Razor spotting scope thats like 6 or 7 years old. It says "made in china"

While hunting you will be looking through your binoculars or spotting scope for hours each day, but only through the rifle scope for brief moments. For that reason my hunting binocular is the best money can buy, but my hunting rifle scope is a mid-range affair.

At the riflerange I use MSA Sordin Supreme Pro X over foam earplugs. By themself the MSA Sordins do not provide adequate attenuation for rifle shooting, combine them with single-use "construction-site" type foam ear plugs for adequate protection. The same is true for most other models and...

In Denmark where I live, the situation is as follows: lead shotgun shells have been totally prohibited since 1996 lead rifle ammunition will be prohibited for hunting from April 2024 lead rifle ammunition is legal on shooting ranges - for now lead pistol ammunition is legal on shooting ranges -...
