Bore Boss: The Better Bore Cleaner
Gun cleaning is one of those chores that comes with the fun. There was a time when I enjoyed it. Spending some quiet time cleaning every nook and cranny until it shined. Running dozens of patches through the bore along with a multi-step program of specialty cleaning agents. Then life got busy and I became […]

Emerson La Griffe: A Fixed Blade for Everyday
During my Emerson La Griffe review I was pleasantly surprised. In my experience, folding knives are small and made for the pocket. Fixed blade knives are large and hang off the belt. The Emerson La Griffe defies both expectations. It’s a fixed blade knife that goes on the belt but is small enough to pocket. In the […]
