      Wading boots

      Does anyone have any recommendations or preferences for footwear to use with waders mainly for trout fishing? Are actual wading boots really needed or can something like regular waterproof hiking boots or regular sneakers or running shoes be used?

      Old grenade crate

      Not sure this qualifies for C&R but thought it might be a good place for it. MIL gradually goes through things stored in her basement and finds interesting things my FIL had. Its a wooden box marked for 50 practice rifle grenades. No actual grenades inside, just old maps and papers. On the...

      Old knife handle repair

      Zehna pistol

      I'm not a big collector, got it from someone who was in WWII and brought it back. I gave it a good cleaning and took it out to the range. A couple of times after firing the slide only partially returned and I had to nudge it a bit to fully close. Also there were a couple other times when the...

      Old Rag...

      ....the mountain in VA, not your mother-in-law. Did the hike last weekend, its about 10 miles total and the summit is 3200 feet. The rock scramble was a little challenging, a few boulders were a little tricky to navigate but as long as you take your time its not bad. Camped in Shenandoah...

      New from DC

      I've been in DC for about 15 years, but spend a lot of time in MD outdoors for the fishing and hunting. I took a Utah CC course in MD about a month ago, and interested in keeping up with ongoing firearm issues for DC as well.
