M1 Carbine
If you are looking for a shooter (not a collectable), it is a little high. You're gonna lose out on the magazines if you're in MD. If you're willing to wait a little, you could try gunbroker and see if you can get a decent one around $1k. Q- Qbeam

Old mre's
Those are the low sodium meal packs. Should still be good, but selection will be limited. One set has an expiration of 2031. One has the pop tarts in it, and the other is more MRE based. For general purpose, hiking, camping, they should be good. I have a few of the HDR (Humanitarian Daily... -
Axil Hearing Protection
Make sure the earplugs fit your ear canal. Use the compression foam tips and not the silicone ones. I have the GS model, and it is ok, but prefer the electronic muffs (Sordin, and Walker Quad w/Bluetooth) Q- Qbeam

Striker fired versus hammer fired guns?
DA/SA (1911 and Hi-Powers), others would be just a second pull then, rack of the slide. Q -
Striker fired versus hammer fired guns?
Different ways to get the same function done, they have been tested and get the job done. Striker fired has been around for a while and appears to work well, while hammer fired allows a follow-up manually for a misfire. Both require training on misfires, striker needs racking of slide (some... -
Decent Throwing Tomahawks on a budget for Boy Scouts
Yeah, I did it to be different in MD, and it went over well with Scouts. Followed the Shooting Sports Manial (now called the Range And Target Activities Manual, RATA Manual, smh, as of 9/1). Trying to hold on by our fingertips, lol. Going to be doing Tomahawks in the morning, and Cowboy...- Qbeam

Decent Throwing Tomahawks on a budget for Boy Scouts
MDS Brain Trust, Looking for a decent couple of sets (4x3) of Tomahawks to teach Scouts how to throw properly. The council here has the "mouse hawks", and have had me use the Walmart special "SOG Throwing Tomahawks" (they were embarassing). The mouse hawks work better, but the constant having...- Qbeam

Buy radios and learn to use them
Yeah, I had the programming cable, but it got misplaced during the move. Have a few on order, so looks like I will have to go that route. I can tell it has the features mentioned above due to the TX and RX being on different frequencies. Q -
Buy radios and learn to use them
Trying to figure out how to get the UV-5R to put a repeater in the mix for a BSA Camp that uses a repeater in the camp radios which are on their last legs. We have the frequencies, and they work on one radio, but trying to find the config for the second one. Q -
Cloned HK P7 in the near future
Had this come through, https://p7pro.com/ Whether they live up to original HKs, time will tell. Q -
Cheek riser
I would say Bradley Cheek rest, but they only go up to 1 5/8s on the height you are looking for 2. I have them on 2 of my rifles, and they work well. Q -

Why doesn't Ruger make a double stack 22?
Well, a manufacture (Taurus?) came out with a multi-stack mag, so it shpuld be on the horizon in the near future. The rimmed cartridge has something to do with it as well. Q -
Oregon “one-ups” California again. Time to re-think retirement planning.
SMH, so using that logic, any speech has to be printed and cannot use any electronic means. Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok is a den of evil and has no practical use that print can do.... SMH Q- Qbeam

Primary Weapons Systems UXR Rifle
Looking at their website, it is cheaper than a SCAR or Sig Spear, and multi-caliber (~$2,500, GB and $2,650, MSRP). I would pick this up with a caliber conversion (~$575 MSRP), and still come out ahead. Granted the caliber conversions are Out of Stock (OOS), lol, I wonder why... still an... -
Primary Weapons Systems UXR Rifle
Nice write-up, looks like a full multi-caliber platform without magwell restrictions. May have to look at this one. Q -

22lr casings, what to do with them?
When reusing 22lr casings for bullets, does it accelerate wear on the barrel, or is the brass soft enough that it is similar to the regular copper/gilding metal used by ammunition manufacturers currently? Q -
