    4Sevens Quark 123² Tactical (Warm White Q5 Version)

    "As with all Quark lights, it's supposed to be current regulated in all modes. This means that it should exhibit any PWM (a cheaper, less efficient way to regulate lower levels) flickering at lower levels." That should be "shouldn't". I need to not write reviews when I'm sleepy. <_<

    4Sevens Quark 123² Tactical (Warm White Q5 Version)

    Ah, the wonders of LEDs. When they first made their way to flashlights we were amazed at how bright and efficient they were, and how smooth the beam could be. We loved them, though a distinction quickly grew between the newer hotshot LED lights and the older incandescents: the color of the light...

    SureFire 6P Incandescent Review

    Incandescent flashlights came a long way over the 100+ years they were used. They took over the job of open flame and have been mostly superseded by newer LED lights. Ask most people who know about lights what the two main brands of incandescent flashlights were back when they were commonplace...

    What gun started your love of firearms?

    A combination of a WWII 1911 and by brother in law's HK USP .45 got me into guns. My first gun was an HK USPc .40.

    One pistol you wish you had?

    HK Mark 23. It's too big for my hands, but I'd still love one. That or a Kimber Eclipse Pro II. Those things are sexy.

    Looper Leather OWB pancake holster

    Great review. That's a nice looking holster. Can't believe it's only $50.

    4Sevens Quark 123² Turbo (S2 Version) Review

    I'm a big fan of 4Sevens' lights, and just 4Sevens as a company. They're small, American owned, use honest lumens ratings (OTF, and more recently ANSI, instead of the industry standard emitter lumen ratings that inflate the capabilities of the lights), and they have fantastic customer service...

    Word of caution......

    Not that I'm paranoid about anything happening with the SN on my guns, but I go ahead and clone them out anyway. Think I do a darn good job at it too.

    Schumer: Congress doesn’t have the votes for gun control

    I pray that those ninnywacker liberals fail at their limited capacity magazine proposals. I saw good ol' Chuck on Shep's show on Fox today. Shep's tie blew off due to the hot air Schumer was spewing.

    Budget Chinese Light Review

    It's proven to be reliable so far. No hiccups except for the whole not turning off sometimes thing. I'll update this thread if anything goes wrong with it.

    Surefire S2

    Great review. SureFire's have some great beams on them. Every time I break out an old incandescent 6P I can't believe how smooth the beam is. How's the regulation on this light?

    Lautenberg Looks To Ban Large High-Capacity Clips

    I was flipping through channels and saw a blurb on Fox News about guns. Starting watching and here's an almost direct quote from Rep. Carolyn Maloney: "Even the New York police don't carry high-capacity clips because they're so dangerous."
