      Rocky Gap State park

      You should definitely consider getting AllTrails or similar for your phone. While it takes out all of the fun of possibly getting lost and an opportunity to teach your kids to learn how to use actual maps, they provide so much additional information on the trails through their descriptions...

      ATF & AACO Police investigating purchases of 80% items.

      This was the part that always makes me think there are likely some "guys around the corner" already committing the highly punishable federal crime of manufacturing with intent to sell that are helping with putting these things together and selling in that market. The average 18-year old drug...

      Hold off or buy during these times?

      If you want it, get it. Prices will remain high for the foreseeable future, and, even if still available, don't be shocked if they try to impose a tax on any semi-automatic like we have for SBR's. In any case, if you'd want anything bigger than an X round magazine for it, then buying the...

      The damned humidity! Gun storage questions...

      It used to just be the Mr. Cool minisplits that were pre-charged. I think Mr. Cool makes them both ways now, where you need someone to charge it and the others that are labeled "DIY". I'll be in the market if I ever finish our garage... one day. No where near as good as a Mitsubishi, but for a...

      The damned humidity! Gun storage questions...

      It would likely do the same thing. I do think the 150 degree heat of the goldenrod is excessive (of course, everyone apparently swears by them so who am I to judge), but I can't tell you which is more energy-efficient. Using an incandescent is an old trick some craftsman use to keep tools from...

      The damned humidity! Gun storage questions...

      I dealt with the same problem when I moved here, but the likely issue is more a combination of humidity and the changes in temperature. I lived in an extremely humid climate, but we never had to deal with rust on tools in a shed since it was hot enough day and night that you never had to worry...

      How much is enough - Ammo

      Last time we had a shortage of this sort I'd say it took about 2 years before things got somewhat back to normal, so plan and buy accordingly for how much you shoot + your SHTF stockpile. You can use the Wayback Machine on some websites if you want some historic information on prices: when the...

      Wife wants a bedside firearm

      If something is going to go wrong in a situation, it's usually because the shooter lacks experience. The best gun is the one with which she is most willing to go to the range and put a lot of lead downrange, so I think a pistol is by far the best to get someone who lacks experience and needs to...
