Add a Touch of Class: Niter Blue DIY

Fri, 09/26/2014 - 16:46

I have always thought of the bluing process as a kind of dark art. Some of the finishes look like they could only be achieved by a mad scientist and his minions mixing chemicals in a secret lab complete with a Jacobs Ladder and some bubbling flasks. The truth is not too far off. But you don’t need a minion to do this, just a 650 degree pot of salt. Niter bluing is one of the simplest of the bluing processes and it gives some of the most vibrant colors.

Opinion: John Lennon vs. ISIS! – Is “Anti-War” Still Left Wing?

Fri, 09/26/2014 - 13:13

A deafening silence has settled over the entertainment industry as Obama begins the next war the Middle East. Likewise the "hippie" generation of baby boomers who protested the Vietnam war. Don't you all remember that you supported the "anti-war" President Obama? He did get the Nobel Peace Prize didn't he? So why are we bombing a country or countries that have done nothing to us? Has anyone actually figured out why we are bombing people?

The Meopta MeoPro 80 HD Spotting Scope

Fri, 09/26/2014 - 12:35

If you are a serious shooter, a good spotting scope is a must. I see people shooting long range all the time, then trying to check their shots through a rifle scope. But if I were to make a list of gear I have to have to do my reviews efficiently, this would be in the top five, right up there with my ear protection, my bench rest, and my box of screwdrivers. Lately, it has been the Meopta MeoPro 80 HD.
