Even though Woot has a rule about not posting deals on actual firearms* (fortunately, we have places like SlickGuns for that), they don’t seem to have any issue with advertising or even selling gun accessories. Today’s deal on sport.woot.com is a S&W Micro 90 for $37.99 + $5 shipping. I haven’t really done any research… Read More »
Apparently an order of protection is as good at stopping crossbow bolts as it is at stopping bullets. I’m suspecting that the attacker used one of those $20 special crossbows you sometimes find in army/navy stores verses one of the higher end jobs that folks go hunting with since the weatherman was found alive with… Read More »
That’s a common argument from my mother about me carrying a firearm. She and my dad worked hard to bring me up in a good neighborhood and send me to a good private school. I now live in a neighborhood that, while not quite as good as the area I grew up in was/is, is… Read More »
After watching Wizard at his first IDPA match, I decided to give it a go this month. I pretty much went with his initial goals in mind (don’t shoot yourself, don’t shoot anyone else, don’t get DQ’d, don’t come in last). Well, the “don’t come in last” part was more of a “it would be… Read More »
Driving through the old money part of town (incidentally, the same street that Al Gore bought a house on a couple years ago) with my mom the other day, we passed a black youth wearing a zipped up hoodie with the hood up. Oh, I failed to mention that it was 90 degrees outside and… Read More »

It’s a Chessex Megamat that I use for RPG sessions. The squares are 1″. I… Read More »
So, I went to the range with my TKD instructor and her partner yesterday so that she could get some recoil therapy. Among other things, I took that Browning Buck Mark I bought last week. They brought a Mossberg 500 that the instructor bought for home defense, a couple Glocks, a couple S&W airlight .38… Read More »
I realize that I’m a bit late to the party and you’ve probably read from just about everyone else, but 5.11 is taking orders for their Tactical Kilts. They have even decided to make ’em for us fat asses that dare to have waists beyond 40″. I’ve already ordered mine, and Naienko instructed asked me… Read More »
So… I’ve been using a Samsung Captivate for a couple years now. It’s the only Android phone that I’ve used to this point (my previous 2 phones were Windows Mobile), and I’ve been pretty happy with it. Especially once I dropped CyonogenMod 7 on it so I could actually use a bluetooth headset properly with… Read More »
Erin has something that is probably not safe for your sanity.
