I carried a Kershaw Blackout for years. Hunting in northern Minnesota a few years ago, I bagged a doe and headed back to camp only to find I didn't have my usual Buck knife for gutting. But my Kershaw was in my pocket like always and it got the job done, including splitting the rib cage. The next da...

I do have several Glocks, never a problem, never a jam. Goes bang every time, and with practice they are way more accurate than most would...
I bought my first handgun at the Frontiersman back in 1979, a S&W K-17 .22lr revolver. That was back when they still sold Evinrude outboard motors. While I believe it has changed hands since '79, I've continued to shop there and I've always been treated well. As for J&S, they have some nice ...
