    The mammoth ivory has a special deep warm look and feel. Nothing looks or feels like ivory. I think I’ll make some for a pistol next.

    It’s funny how inaccurate the prediction of which country would be the next opposition in future wars. It’s rarely the country or topography we are preparing for. the US has a poor track record of accurately predicting future wars. Former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates famously stated...

    Finished sanding and polishing the handle. Now to make a decision if I want to polish the blade like a Randall. I have a Sullivan by Gutcher sheath coming for it

    Trumps $5000 baby bonus is perhaps the worst idea he has ever proposed. I can see a tax break for additional babies. Handing people $5000 who are already costing the taxpayer to support them is not what we need. Hopefully this isn’t in the Big Beautiful Bill.

    Matrix CZ 550 Safari Magnum 458 Lott

    I feel the same way. I try not to open this thread. Buy a 550 send it away and pay them thousands, or just buy this one ?

    Watching this video. It’s apparent that the Russians can’t hang with the US in battle. 50 vs 500. These were Wagner mercenaries. They were for the most part older Russian spec war guys. Terrible Russian leadership. First acknowledged battle between US and Russian soldiers

    The polishing of the steel alone to look like a Randall is a lot of labor.

    Yes Ratcliff says the ads have focused targets within the CCP. The ads are able to get through China’s firewalls. And there is information on how to contact the CIA on the Dark Web in a safe manner that CCP leaders can not see.

    Montana Rifle Company TSAVO in .375 H&H - Shooting!!!

    The wrist is re enforced with a rod running through it. The larger calibers will have a different stock. I did not notice the recoil at all. Or excess muzzle jump.

    Full disclosure. I am not a knife builder. More of an assembler. I bought the blade blank. Then bought the ivory from a collector. So this blade is definitely NOT a Randall. But the closest I can get with my skill level

    I’m finishing up my Randall inspired knife. Sneak peak. I should be able to wrap it up tomorrow D2 steel and Mammoth tusk ivory scales. I bought a custom knife and the builder angled the top of the tang and handle the way the hand angles when clenched around it. And love it. So I’m...

    Anyone use a piggyback mount for a red dot on their scope?

    I have that set up on two 3 Gun rifles. But wouldn’t use it on DG. And use Troy industries flip up irons at 45 degrees. Some stages call for Irons only. Some are built to be close and fast (RMR). and some stages are longer and more precise. So all three sights can come in to play. The...
