    Optics Leupold MK8 3.5-25x H58 Illuminated w/Leupold MK8 Mount

    Up for sale is my gently used Leupold MK8. It has been a great scope, very clear, but rarely gets used. It is currently mounted and leveled in a MK8 IMS 35MM mount, so all you'll need to do is drop it on your rifle and sight it in! Specs are: MK8 M5B2 3.5-25x56 35MM Tube First Focal Plane...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Spartan Sword

    Xiphos, and we may have a CAD model we can throw up at some point to give you a better idea. Our references are archeological descriptions of the length breadth, weight, and thickness as well as photographs since we don't happen to own an original.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Spartan Sword

    I was trying to gauge interest for a project I was working on with a friend. We were considering producing a modern tactical variant of a Spartan sword. It would likely be from 1095 steel and mid-tech production, having both machined and hand worked parts. We'd Cerakote the blade and use...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Post a pic of your EDC knife under $200

    I have the 0561 and love it. It has a lot better feel than the 0300 or 0350 due to a narrower profile. The scales give you great grip, and its a beast of knife, no blade play at all. The downsides: Its huge; The frame lock is so stiff you'll need two hands to unlock it sometimes, theres a trick...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns looking for edged weapon/tool to cary in truck or BOB

    I got to play around with a Ontario RD7 and a RAT7, and they are both awesome knives, especially for what you're thinking. They're simple, got a good bit of heft to them, and are razor sharp. Not too expensive either. Both do come in 9" and 10.25" models if you want bigger.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Carry knife preferences

    Gotta go with the ZT0561 Hinderer if I plan on doing any hard work with it. That thing is a tank. If I'm just going into the office, I carry a Spyderco Endura Emmerson opener. For hunting, I carry one of my own creations, (I make my own knives and sell a few, gatorforgecustomknives.com) a 7" D2...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Knife gurus needed (vintage case)

    So To date it, I would need a better picture of the Case marking and any marking that may be on the other side. Based on what I can see though it is probably 1940-1965. A good resource for case knives is the case website. As far as restoration, if you wanted to, you could likely do the blade...
