THANK YOU VETERANS!

And everyone, please pray that policies are changed so that Ft. Hood style incidents do not happen again.

Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?

Thank you, Easter Bunny!
Now the (pending) vinyl decal section of the website won't have to rely on you-know-who.

Quick Survey - Link & Update

Richard Mann is doing research for an article on the suitability of the .22 LR for personal protection. The article will appear in an upcoming issue of the National Rifle Association’s Shooting Illustrated magazine. This survey is part of that research.

Four questions and takes just a minute to complete.

Please check it out.

As an aside, the website has recently been overhauled. More coming in the future, when I can pass webdesign responsibilities over to someone else. I FINALLY have a few of the sa-weet Oleg Volk photos of a couple of refinished items of mine up there. Just been short on time & long on grief since October 2- and more on that in another post later.

Motorcycle Helmet and Remington R25

So, here is what ACU looks like on a bike helmet...







And here is what a well used Remington R25 in .243 looks like, when the unsealed factory camo finish meet wear & tear-



You get to see the underlying white paint (Very DuraCoat like, by the way.)



Too bad the "Dipped" decal camo finish received ZERO post treatment at the factory.
And a previous owner tried to fill the letters, making the problem worse.

Luckily, the officer that owns this knew someone that knows me.



So, Before & After!







Never a dull moment, just a dull black finish.
Happy shooting, Trooper!
