О женщинах

Posted on April 27, 2013 by Oleg Volk

А если их словом обидеть, невежливостью оскорбитьТо лучше бы некультурному на свете и вовсе не житьВ руке недрожащей Люгер выдаст громкий отказИ в голове непутёвой зажмурится третий глазА коли гость тот усопший привёл с собою друзейТо в магазине хватит свинца и … Continue reading →

Slimming Down for the Summer

Posted on April 22, 2013 by Oleg Volk

While I prefer to carry full-sized sidearms, sometimes something slim and relatively light is more appropriate. For the longest time, I used a pouch made by a good friend. Made to my specifications back when I had little understanding of … Continue reading →

Lasers for Ruger LCP

Posted on April 12, 2013 by Oleg Volk

I happened to have two examples of LCP-compatible lasers on hand. Pistols with fixed sights of indifferent visibility definitely benefit from lasers for low-light use. I have seen more than one person go from 8 inch scatter to a tight … Continue reading →

A better sight for the Little Badger

Posted on April 12, 2013 by Oleg Volk

Putting the MARS on the little single-shot .22 was a joke. The sight was too big and it sat much too high over the bore. The little Lucid M7 is smaller and much cheaper and so a closer match to … Continue reading →

For several days now, I am having Firefox freeze up for 20-30 seconds at a time every several minutes. Can’t figure out what’s causing it. Other programs appear unaffected during that time. Does anyone know if it’s caused by something … Continue reading →

They won’t ban your single-shot .22, right?

.22 rifles are, by definition, rifled. In quite a few countries, that’s subject to a higher level of restriction than smoothbores. 22LR round is fixed ammunition, and that is also more restricted compared to loosely loaded black powder guns. The … Continue reading →
