Some Favorite Christmas Gift Suggestions
November 30, 2011You had better start giving suggestions if you want some useful gifts for Christmas. Here’s some I rely on regularly….
The above picture is the Wheeler 89 piece deluxe gunsmithing screwdriver kit that includes bits for getting deeper into guns than most folks will ever go, so a better choice may be the Wheeler 72 piece kit. It may be more practical for you and is a bit less money. These bits are made for gunsmithing and have the proper flat ground profile to preserve every sharp screw edge you start …
Start your Christmas Shopping Early at Opticsplanet.com
November 23, 2011Need to drop some Christmas hints? The Leupold VX-R riflescopes are taking off in a big way. The new design omits the cumbersome battery and rheostat placement on the ocular lens, and instead places it on the left side of the turret housing, for a much cleaner, sleeker look. The reticle adjustments work as designed. I’ve hunted with several different 3-9×50 examples since they first came out. The Leupold VX-R riflescope line promises to be a winner. The lit reticle is adjustable low enough that it isn’t blinding. Check out our Leupold riflescope selection for more choices from this premier …
Having a Fun Friday Workday at OP
November 18, 2011I’m having a fun day today at OpticsPlanet on this chilly Friday in Northbrook. Our weekly staff meeting was even more delicious than normal, with lots of great news from various departments. Lots of continued growth. This is truly a dynamic place to work. At all levels you had better be on your toes and not rest on your laurels. Not what have you done for me lately, but what are you doing for me now. And it’s Christmas! Our time of the year!
My first meeting had to do with a project regarding …
Alaskan Bear Hunt with EOTech 2011
October 28, 2011My God was drunk and delirious and flailing when His Paintbrush spewed forth the colors and medium to make this part of our planet. Ketchikan (Kehi to the locals) was the first city in Alaska I'd ever landed in, and the terrain and scent of it is something I had always hoped I would experience sometime in my life. It didn't disapoint. I was with JB from EOTech, the inimitable predator hunter Byron South, and his camera man Sammy. If Byron is Cisco, Sammy is his Pancho. A good working pair.
ATF Confiscates My Gun Case In Anchorage!
October 21, 2011I was home packing for my flight leaving early the next morning to Seattle, then Ketchikan, Alaska. I got a call from work and they said I had to call Special Agent J right away. I called him and he told me that they confiscated my gun case and sequestered it in Anchorage because they scanned it and found I had an aerosol can in it. Gun Scrubber. Can you believe it? I couldn’t either. I needed to give him the combination for the locks or he would get a warrant and cut them off. He was not to be …
