Fine. But end federal benefits for BSA. When you donate to BSA through, for instance, CFC it goes to the national level. Some of that will filter down to bigoted troops. Thus, BSA will still never get one cent from me. If they feel th... |

Very rough modern equivalent of the M6: Savage Model 42. Polymer sights suck, though. I think that the old Savage Model 24 was made in all sorts of interesting calibers, like .357/20g and .30-30/12g for instance, in addition to vario... |

Re: Small stuff @David- he wants it for hunting, so the P-32 is really NOT what he's looking for. If he's willing to degrade himself by buying a Kel-Tec I would propose that a PMR-30 is better for his nee... |

VBL I've got to +1 that I think you're on the right track in thinking about a VBL layer. A VBL liner is cheaper and lighter but, yes, it's pointless to wear all of your clothes to sleep in... |

Re: Toronto packrafting map Re: "Here is the link: http://goo.gl/maps/TLuI5" Oh, yeah- if all you intend is gunkholing near shore I suspect that a packraft will work just fine. I'd just be sure to check t... |

Other kayaks I'm a kayaker as well as a hiker, and I'll +1 the recommendation to not get a packraft. Well, actually, I guess I would just encourage you to figure out exactly what you want from your b... |

Ultimate Hiker's Gear Guide -Andrew Skurka book Wow, how to rate this book? It is NOT meant for someone who is already an experienced UL hiker. There is nothing in this book that someone like that doesn't already know or can find out in fiv... |

Klepper Double wood framed folding kayak I own a Long Haul Mark 2, which is a copy of the Klepper Double. Though the fasteners vary very slightly the Klepper frame can use the Long Haul hull-skins and vice versa. The guy who builds the Lon... |

Sawyer In-Line Filter I have a slightly different kit- the 0.1 micron 4-way filter. Of the filters available I give it a 5. It's not perfect, but IMHO it is the best that is available, hands down. The 4-way kit come... |

La Sportiva Crosslite Personally, I rate this shoe a 5/5 because I'm ecstatic to find a shoe that FITS! (I have mutant monkey-feet.) But generally it is probably a 4. Listen, ye, to my tale of woe... I just mov... |
