Video #2

Next up is some really cool super slow motion impacts shots of a bunch of different kinds of projectiles, even pellets.  The watermark gets annoying at times.  But still a cool video.

A couple cool videos, video #1

This is a funny ad for home defense done right.

New trigger for the Gamo

One of the biggest complaints everyone has with their Gamo air rifles is the trigger.  It’s stiff, sloppy on the first stage, and the second stage seems inconsistent.  I noticed I would pull a lot of shot because the trigger throw was so long and stiff.

Well Charlie Da Tuna has a solution.  It’s the GRT-III trigger.  It fits pretty much every Gamo and many other air guns.

Lee Breechlock Challenger Press Kit Review

Lee Breechlock reloading kit

So I finally got fed up with ammo prices and ran out of the ammo I reloaded at my cousin’s house.  So I decided to pick up a kit.  I wanted a kit since they come with almost all the equipment you need and you usually get a bit of a discount for it.  Also, they don’t really come with much equipment you don’t need.  So you don’t feel your money is wasted.

2nd Amendment T-Shirt

So my wife found this shirt.  It’s pretty awesome.  Slightly see-through in the right light.  Pro-American.  What’s not to like?

S&W 22A shoots like a champ

So I have never shot through a “red dot” sight before.  But I know a lot of people like them so I figured I would give it a shot.  I bought a green dot sight (sale price was lower than the red dot) from Natchezz Shooter’s Supply for $17.  I figured if I hated it I could probably sell it for a profit on Ebay.  The one I bought was made by BSA.  I shot a couple groups with my Smith and Wesson 22A without the sight on it.  Not so good.  I can’t shoot a good group worth a crap with regular blade sights.  I threw the BSA Green Dot sight on and WOW.  All of a sudden it was shooting groups better than the guys with Ruger 10/22’s around me. 

Book review: Monster Hunter International

Monster Hunter International

I will try to do a review without too many spoilers.  But it’s hard on a book like this.  Monster Hunter International is a book written by a gun nut and a B-movie fan.  And it shows.  It contains many mythical creatures made popular by comic books, video games, and of course midnight cable movies. 

TruGlo 6-24X50 review / .22-250 Reload data / Sako L579 Forester

So my favorite rifle has been a bit neglected lately. It’s a Sako Forester in .22-250. It has the L579 action. As close as I can tell, it was imported from Finland back in about 1973. It was a gift from my dad to my mom back then and seeing as how my mom is not a fan of guns, she never shot it and decided to save it for me. So it sat in my grandpa’s gun cabinet for about 18 years. Then once I hit that magical age my mom thought was old enough for me to have it it became mine. Every time I would visit grandpa’s house I would sit and look at that gun through the glass on the front of his cabinet tempted to take it out on his farm and have some fun. But I wouldn’t risk never getting it by trying to have it too soon. So there it sat. Right next to his Savage Model 99 lever action 300 Savage. There’s another cool old gun.

Shooting the S&W 22A

So I got to hit the range with a friend of mine today to test out the new gun for the first time.   I was using some cheap Federal value pack high velocity and some CCI Blazer high velocity.  I have been warned that both of those types may have feeding issues in the gun, but that’s what I had.  I was shooting at targets that are some “official” 25′ slow fire pistol targets.

Father’s day is likely my favorite day…

So This year for father’s day my wife bought me another gun.  This year I got my present early thanks to Cabela’s having a $20 off coupon.  So after calling around a week ago, nobody had the gun I wanted in stock except Cabela’s.  So when this weekend rolled around we made the drive down there (maybe 20 miles is all).  Turns out in the week between when I called and when we went shopping, they sold out of this particular gun.  So after calling around again, we found it at Impact Guns.  They have a great website with a ton of guns (not this one though) and their West Valley store is very close to my house.  Their website makes you think their store would be some 30,000 square foot warehouse with maybe some sort of small store front.  But really it’s a crappy little run down building in the ghetto with bars on the windows and maybe a couple thousand total square feet of store.  But they do have a decent selection of anything from 10/22’s to Barret M82’s.
