      Geaux Shooting

      Red Jacket Firearms Birthday Bash 2012!!

      Email sent. Last year was great, and hopefully this year will be even better. I'm bringing my easy-up this time, though.

      Anyone going to the 'Silencers are Legal' shoot in Dallas at the end of April?

      Just saw this, and I want to go. Anybody else want to ride share? I'm in Baton Rouge. Just looked on Orbitz.com and saw hotels pretty cheap. $79 or so near the galleria.

      Knife in your pocket now.....

      Since about 2004, I carried a SOG Trident TF-2 Last month, I got a new SOG Trident TF-7 Both of them are great knives. The assisted opening is nice and smooth, provided I clean the pocket lint out of the mechanism about once a year. They hold an edge for what seems like forever. To sharpen...

      Papers Please?

      I keep color copies of my Form 4 scattered everywhere. There's always one in my car, computer room, bedroom, pistol case, rifle case, range bag, and anywhere else my can may be. The original is in the safe deposit box.

      Prairie Dog Hunt

      Did you get a TX hunting license for this? If so, how much did the small game license cost?

      AR piston conversion recommendations

      Maybe softer recoil wasn't the right way to put it... The recoil force was the same, but it seemed to be not quite as sharp. Maybe this was because of a stronger buffer spring... not sure... but I remember shooting a friends AR a while back - which is a piston conversion - and it had the same...

      Check computer for virus/malware

      Ok... I've been doing computer security and forensics for a living for over 10 years now. Interestingly enough - AV software isn't all that effective any more. Even the better ones out there only catch about 30% of the active malware. AV certainly does help with your computer security, but...

      Need new duty boots. Want your suggestions

      I think the hot weather and the tactical boots have the same sole. If so, then they're extremely slip resistant. I wore the hot weather ones while moving through wet mountains in Afghanistan, and I never slipped.

      AR piston conversion recommendations

      I fired some piston driven AR's at the B-Day bash on Saturday, and I like the softer recoil when launching .223 rounds downrange. So I'm thinking about getting a piston conversion kit for mine. It's a standard DPMS upper with a 16" barrel. Any suggestions on a good brand to go with? I...

      SOLD WTT/WTS Sig 522

      Been shooting my 522 with a can for a while now. Nothing like it! Best .22 LR I've ever owned. Everybody that shoots it asks me where they can get one. Price-wise - I bought mine last year when Louisiana had the tax-free hunting weekend. Bought it for $485.

      Need new duty boots. Want your suggestions

      http://www.oakley.com/store/products/men/footwear/military-duty Look at the Tactical Six. I haven't worn them, but if they're anything like the hot weather assault boots that I've worn, you won't regret it.
