    My new-to-me bike as of this month. Bought it off a great guy out of Arkansas who only rode it 800 miles since 2006 (61 year-old gentleman who had several more very nice bikes) but kept it up great. 2002 Honda CBR 954rr - picked it up a week and a half ago with 5,900 original miles, now has...

    It's time to learn how to ride

    Your probably getting more information (or really opinions) than you really want but I'll chime in my 2 cents. With a few dirt bikes thrown in the mix I started on the street on a 1984 Honda 110 when I was fourteen until 16. Love that bike and it is the only besides my current bike still in...

    ACU/Gerber/Noveske Combo

    The class is part of my major at OSU. Good instruction, however I was gone training at Ft. Irwin for a month and then air assault at Benning for a couple weeks during the semester so probably didn't get everything I could out of it. I like photography in general though so mostly it is learned by...

    M&P Failure, Cracked Slide Rail

    Tried to get ahold of you last night Cyrwus, you must have been screening your calls. I will persist and try again. Chambers, if I shoot your M&P9 are you going be willing to sell it after?! j/k I will probably break out my Sig and blow the cobwebs out of it. Or who knows, maybe I will do...

    M&P Failure, Cracked Slide Rail

    Oh, and yes it was all factory ammo that I shot out of it. Couldn't tell you on the last owner, but from what I hear he is pretty hardcore.:fullauto:

    M&P Failure, Cracked Slide Rail

    Ha, Yes, as Chambers said it is for sure a "well seasoned" pistol. However, I would expect something else to fail before that happened. After reading around a bit last night I am pretty sure S&W will take care of it. I have not had internet the last few days so I had just been speculating...

    M&P Failure, Cracked Slide Rail

    Hey everyone, Was out shooting the other day and my .40 started kicking out mags after each round. After stripping I noticed the slide rail opposite of the ejection port had a sizable crack and separation from the slide. Does anyone know if M&P resolved the problem and why it was a problem in...

    First time using white box

    It was a white "tent" cloth box. The box was not self-lit, I used external flashes in conjunction with some lights on a stand. It was all OSU stuff we were using for a class so it was some pretty highspeed stuff. Only had about 10 minutes with it from start to finish so I did not get to...

    First time using white box

    I took a bunch at all different apertures just playing around. Looking through them I agree, bringing the whole object into focus looked better. Normally I am a huge fan of using really low apertures to make the point of focus really stand out but its a bit different in a box. Most those were...

    First time using white box

    A few pictures I took using a white box the other day. Probably going to build a box at home so I can take some pictures of fuctional weapons and not toys. Thought I would post a couple up. Thanks 257WBY for the use of the gator heads! Let me know what yall think

    Shooting in Stillwater

    Well it is a darn good thing all of stillwater's ccw holders are banned from carrying on campus. Sure wouldn't want to scare the shooter into thinking he might actually run into someone who has a weapon.

    attempting a few photos

    White balance for sure, but if you do not have photoshop or a similar program to adjust it your best bet is just going to be to take them either morning or evening for softer light. You could also try to bump your aperture higher to let a bit less light in. I like the setups for the most...

    Sell me on the Kahr

    Ive carried a CW40 for a while now and really like it. I have shot it quite a bit and never had any problems after the break-in. (couple hundred rounds), with very few during break in. When I bought mine I also bought one for my brother and he carried it for several months before just...

    Employers can forbid guns, a judge rules, issues an injunction against OK law.

    Big nanny government... chipping away at our freedoms a little at a time, hoping no one will notice until its too late. BUT, of course, it is all for us.
