Turns out it's a nice holster. It won't likely be the last one I buy from 1791 Holsters.

Oh GOSH! Now I'm intrigued. Might need to get one for my .357 Smith Wheelgun!

A 686 4" is buried in that holster.

I need to measure my barrel, I think it's either 2 1/2 or 3 inches. Not sure.

I like 1791 holsters, I've got one for my Sig P229.

Your Nuclear Attack Map for 2023

Nuclear incidents are not as rare as they seem. Read our article on the nuclear attack map to find out the areas most affected and plan accordingly.

Thank you for the link...very informative, and I totally agree the potential destruction and loss of life could be unprecedented. However, If I survive the initial blast and subsequent fallout, knowing what foods and objects are radioactive will help prevent further exposure/premature death...that's where the radiation detector comes in handy.
Let's hope no warmonger anywhere, ever pushes that button.

Meanwhile, even if a blast never occurs, the detectors can be used to identify radioactive oceanic fish/seafood (see Fukushima disaster, and other lesser known nuclear warheads accidents/disappearances at sea), and also can be used to identify radioactive construction materials mined/extracted from Uranium rich fields across the world (like some granite countertops). I'd like to know if the fish I am eating can make me glow in the dark...if a cave I am exploring has radioactive dust, or the hotel's hot tub, floor or countertop, can give me cancer, etc.,etc..

Pair of Little Skeeters 10-to-12-gauge adapters. Assuming they work, having the option to run both isn't a bad thing.

Want to give LPVO's a shot, so I just ordered a Monstrum Banshee 1-6x24 on Amazon with the BDC-B1 reticle. I chose that one due to it's high praise from reviews, the price is right, and easy return on Amazon if I don't like it or LPVO in general.

I did a pretty close scale mock-up of what it should look like on the rifle.

Careful with Amazon. They are getting more and more scammers on there with knockoff goods. It is actually to the point where there are more knockoffs than legit brand merchandise now. Amazon does not care, they just want their cut. Also all of the reviews are likely fake.

If it works then great, but just be aware of the risks (especially for semi-durable knockoffs that can survive past the Amazon warranty period).

Louis Rossmann on YT has a take-down series on it, well worth the watch.

I get my reviews from all over not just Amazon. I don't care about Amazon warranties or use warranties in general. I just return the stuff and get my money back, it doesn't take me too long to figure out if I'm going to like something or not. I only got this one to try out an LPVO in general.

Normally I'm just an iron sight user, but I've been spoiled with having a red dot on my Glock so figured I'd try experimenting with optics on my rifle this year.

Yeah, I get that. I was talking about the return warranty. That has a time limit, and some of these scam companies have their products designed to "match" common return periods. They are getting sophisticated. Just know to be careful and don't buys stuff from crummy sites that you cant afford to eat the cost on.

Whoa. Good deal.

 

[Lazyfaire]

Whoa. Good deal.

They do have some pretty good deals on things. I signed up with them a ways back and occasionally get emails with a deal + an extra % off on top of that.
Went to Harbor Freight and their M2 cans were $12.99, but I am not a member with them.

That's a good price!
I had some extra cans and sold or traded them. dumb mistake.
Now I'm looking for more of the big ones.
