    Fieldcraft Anyone preparing for a diaster such as 2012?

    Re: Anyone preparing for a diaster such as 2012? To me, the issue is unrealistic and therefore only interesting as a theory. I think most men and many women in a given situation will do whatever it takes, including anything in their power to totally completely annihilate any threat, to ensure...

    Fieldcraft Anyone preparing for a diaster such as 2012?

    Re: Anyone preparing for a diaster such as 2012? Quite a bold first post... Any shit hitting the fan tends to break out the absolutely worst in some people, an excellent example above where that seems to be the predefined mindset. On another note, according to Darwin and other on the same...

    Rifle Scopes Back up RDS on Scope?

    Re: Back up RDS on Scope? It all depends on your use and what scope you are mounting it to if going with a combo mount. POI-change with good mounts would be negligeble, especially when mounting the RDS. Some claim that the RDS-mount on top of ACOGS suck due to the high/lack of (take your...

    Accuracy Wedge?

    Re: Accuracy Wedge? Even if the wedge has a certain positive psycological effect on the shooter, feeling more confident in a "tighter" gun, I do not see that it will actually do anything but that. When looking at slow-motion high-resolution video from a shot fired and what it does to the...

    Minority Report on the way.

    Re: Minority Report on the way. One thing is that these super-secret-ninja-squirrel 2 and 3-letter organizations both sides of the pond have had the ability to do these things for years, at least it`s something they`ve had to do under the table... The fact that they make it a requirement by...

    Wood Stoves

    Re: Wood Stoves Triad; Trust me on this; for indoors use you do not want a "beerceg" style, not even in a workshop... During my camping trips with the armed forces, the remf used those to heat up the larger snowtraps/cold-pits (take your pick) commonly known as "tents" and they suck. It is...

    Minority Report on the way.

    Re: Minority Report on the way. I guess you are aware that right now, in Europe, the EU is implementing a directive/law demanding all its membership (EU/EEC) countries to store all electronically transferred data, be it www,phone,whatever, for a minimum of 6 months. If you didnt know you are...

    Fieldcraft Fire from moist/damp wood

    Thought I would share this, nothing revolutionary and it may very well be described in detail in other posts but it may be useful to some. My wife and I live along a country backroad in the middle of basically nothing, a couple of small farms but other than that, just hills, mountains and...

    Pros & Cons of Heavy barrel 30/06 Versus .308

    Re: Pros & Cons of Heavy barrel 30/06 Versus .308 The .308 is a direct result of someone way back then figuring out that the 30-06 ballistics could be nearly matched by a smaller and lighter cartridge. The 30-06 is a classic but for what its worth the .308/7.62 is here to stay in "active...

    H&K 416's are here

    Re: H&K 416's are here HK 417 is in current use with certain armed forces as DM-rifles and also as a regular substitute for 416 as personal weapon when required in certain places. HK has long time experience with gas piston designs so I would not question the reliability of their products...

    CZ 75 or 92FS

    Re: CZ 75 or 92FS Depends on which CZ-75 you are talking about. I own a CZ75 SP01-Shadow that has never failed so far, and it has quite a few hundred rounds downrange... It has a rail and comes with 3 18-round magazines, lots of optional factory accessories available and there are some good...

    Drag Bag for a AIAW folded

    Re: Drag Bag for a AIAW folded For just hauling gear to and from the range I personally recommend something different than an actual drag bag. From my experience it adds bulk over a design like the HSRC or similar concepts. I have several different types with the HSRC as a clear favorite for...
