Episode 49: Mousepad Holster

Remember the episode,  44, Sticky Stuff?  Well, I finally tried it.  I made my first inside the waistband clipless holster out of a neoprene mousepad.  It ain't pretty, but it works.  I'll wear it a bit and give you my observations in a later episode.

Episode 48: I Gave In

I gave in to temptation.  After being so proud of myself for not buying that revolver last episode, I found a deal too good to pass up.  Lee N. Field's review of the Bersa Thunder .45 and some fatherly advice.  Also, I found a great new gunsmith in downtown Lexington: The Gun Monkey!

Episode 47: Good Habits Die Hard

Sorry, I recorded this episode last week, but did not get a chance to publish until now. 
Do you always handle your banana in a safe manner?  I find myself unconsciously handling various objects as if they are loaded.  I guess good habits die hard.

They just can't help themselves, can they?

Episode 46: How I spent my Summer Vacation

My vacation was not really planned to be gun-related (okay, maybe just a little), but I did get to shoot and talk to people about guns.  Here's a rundown.

Episode 44: Sticky Stuff

I like the idea of the Remora holster, but I'd like to actually handle one before committing to buying one.  I came close, though.
Here's a link to their site:

... and video reviews:

Of course, not wanting to pay for much of anything, I decided to make one out of garbage.  Not having felt a real one, I tried to think of what material to use.  I decided an old mouse pad would do the trick.

As you can see below, I wasn't the first to think of this.

Episode 43: Da Youtubez Volume 1

There's a lot of silly useless crap on Youtube, but there are some very valuable, educational, and entertaining channels out there.  Hopefully mine is (will be) one.

I was originally going to just have just one episode on the Youtube channels I subscribe to, but once again, fxhummel1's songs changed my plans.  I'm just going to highlight the channels in his song, "Youtube Gun Star."

Here are links to the channels he mentions in his song:
