Hold that dull bit up to the light, then head for the grinder. Your eyes can detect problems as well as any gauge.

We have yet to meet a gunsmith who knows all there is to know about repairing, improving and servicing all kinds of firearms. Nor have we ever met one who’s discomfort level fails to rise when a gun he’s never worked on, or hasn’t seen in years, comes in. Unless you specialize—rifles only, pistols only, shotguns only, stocks, engraving—you can ill afford to turn down work unfamiliar to you, yet you can’t afford not to if performing it could create a dangerous situation. That’s why books take up much space in the best shops. They’re our safety net, and they have proven their value many times by showing a way to fill a customer’s needs.

From MonroeRising.com: Recently, a friend and I were lamenting the steady dissolution of our Constitution. It seemed to us that the further our politicians have strayed from the spirit, meaning and intent of the Constitution, the more enervated, disunited and dispirited our nation and its people have become. Discussing how best to remedy the nation’s decline and to restore Constitutional governance, we briefly alluded to the discredited doctrine of nullification about which neither of us knew very much at all. So, I decided to briefly revisit the subject to see what I could learn. In a nutshell, this is it. I hope it will be of some interest to you.

WASHINGTON, D.C.--The United States Senate recently approved the FY2010 Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Bill Conference Report, which included an amendment to protect the use of pocketknives.

Nikon Presents The New 10x25 Realtree Outdoors Compact

Nikon Presents The New 10x25 Realtree Outdoors Compact

Nikon Sport Optics is pleased to introduce the new 10x25 Realtree Outdoors Compact Binocular. Bearing the name of one of the most popular hunting shows of all time, this binocular packs Nikon’s advanced optics into a very user-friendly size.

“Not every hunter needs or wants a full sized binocular,” notes Jon LaCorte, Nikon’s Senior Product Marketing Manager. “This binocular won’t take up very much space and it is surprisingly easy on your budget.”

Lightweight and pocket sized, the 10x25 Realtree Outdoors compact is 4.5 x 4.8 inches (2.8 inches when folded) and weighs-in at a mere 9.5 ounces. The binocular is mated with a rubber armored, Realtree APG camouflage exterior that provides added shock resistance and a firm grip.

Although pocket sized, this fold-up compact binocular is big on features. The Realtree Outdoors comes with fold-down rubber eyecups, precisely cut lens and prism glass for clarity, and features multicoated lenses for maximum light transmission and image quality.

Perfect for every budget, the 10x25 Realtree Outdoors Compact carries a list price of $98.95. Like all Nikon binoculars, the Realtree Outdoors Binoculars are covered by Nikon's 25-year limited warranty and the exclusive No-Fault Repair/Replacement policy.

Nikon Inc. is the U.S. distributor of Nikon sports and recreational optics, world-renowned Nikon 35mm cameras, digital cameras, speedlights and accessories, Nikkor lenses and electronic imaging products.
