The Frugal Shooter – Details, episodes & analysis

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.

Episode 67: I was wrong!

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.

Episode 58: At Last!

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.

Episode 57: PVC Target Stand

I've carried a PPK for the last 3 weeks.  Why not the PF9?  That's what I'd like to talk about.  I don't want to talk about Connecticut; I don't want to talk about Hollywood hypocrisy; I don't want to use the F word (Feinstein... oops, sorry); I don't want to talk about media bias and outright lies.  I want to talk about my new Nate Squared Tactical holster and how pleased I am with it.

Know what?  I'm so pleased I'm going to add a link to N82tactical to the right side of this page.  Yep.

A variety of acknowledgements, plugs and shout-outs.  I'm trying a new load in 9mm.  Bullet casting, sizing, and lubricating.

How do you identify another concealed carrier?  If you haven't completely come out of the closet, it can be really hard to find a kindred spirit.  Here are some of my experiences.  Also, this American Thinker piece shows I'm not the only one with a Little Bear experience.

Nothing happened last weekend.  I didn't get stabbed, and I didn't have to defensively display my sidearm.  I may have come across as a little rude, but nothing happened.
