Judd Davis, the Frugal Shooter
A side by side comparison between the Marlin Camp 9 and the Kel-Tec Sub-2000 carbines from an economic, ergonomic, maintenance, and political perspective. Also, an example of why the question, "How are you?" makes me uncomfortable.

I hate being wrong. I'd rather admit being wrong than be proven wrong. In King Kong, they were crickets, not spiders. Also, Kahr Arms is moving out of New York.

Have you ever had an inside the waistband holster that was so comfortable and versatile that you couldn't wait to get dressed in the morning just so you could put it on? Try the Grandfather Oak Hidden Companion. It's a Kydex holster with your choice of belt attachments. I spoke with the inventor at length, and he pointed out the virtues of its various design features. Yes, I was positively impressed. I bought one and wore it for a week each with the 3 different belt attachment systems.
Here it is with the tuckable belt clip
Here's the belt loop with the snap closed And the snap open. This is the leather and steel J-hook I was talking about.

Episode 65: Grandfather Oak Holsters
The ammo crunch is still in full force. How can you get confident getting hits without busting your budget on ammo at the range? Dry fire is good for when you're at home, but you have to set aside time and space for it. I like to use visualization and a pen.

My Jimenez JA-22 refinement project went better and faster than I expected. The next time I took it to the range after the following refinement, it gave me 100 for 100... then again the next time.

... okay... if you say so.
In celebration of the repeal of the 800 degree law, and inspired by The Gun Monkey's success in refining a RIA 1911, I decided to refine a Jimenez JA-22. I've got my work cut out for me.

Well, here we are again. Ammo shelves are empty, all the ARs are out of stock, and the resale price gouging is going full-bore. I learned my lesson back in '09; didn't everybody?

Episode 60: 2009 in 2013
I went to my first 2nd Amendment rally on Friday! The speakers were inspiring, the weather improved as the morning went on, and the crowd was hilarious! Among the speakers were Sen. Lee Bright, Rep. Phillip Lowe, Talbert Black from Campaign for Liberty, Dr. Gene Garris (my chiropractor) and host of America's Radio Show, Harry Kibler, from SC "Rino Hunt", and Sen. Katrina Shealy. Katrina was brief but awesome.
Here's a youtube of Katrina Shealy

Episode 59: SC Feb 8 Second Amendment Rally
I finally got my wife to go to the range with me! She's a pretty good shot, but she doesn't
go as often as I'd like her to. Also, Nikki Haley signed the repeal of the 800 degree law last June, and I just found out about it at the last gun show. I sent her a thank you note. Firearms appreciation day and the Albany Rally - a friend of mine from high school was on the news.

Thank you for repealing the 800 degree law
Madame Governor:
I went to the gun show at Jamil yesterday and was perplexed but delighted to see Cimmaron,
Jimenez, and Phoenix pistols for sale. In the past, I've pointed out to the out-of-state
vendors that these are not permissible here, but yesterday I saw them at an in-state vendor's table.
The vendor informed me that you had signed a repeal of that 800 degree law, and it deepened my appreciation for your approach to our freedoms.
Thank you very much for doing away with this counterproductive law.

I got spoken to at the range a couple of weeks ago about the height of my target stand. I'd been getting ready to build a new one, and that gave me the impetus to get on with it. Also, Firearm Appreciation Day, youtube stealing, and the genesis of the Eloi.
