We were finally able to get out to the range on Saturday after being snowed/rained out earlier in the week. Unfortunately, all the pictures I took went to computer heaven when I tried to download them (I made a really rookie error - I am so ashamed).
Before hitting the Range -
Since it has been WAY [...]
I rarely complain about Montana Weather but today I am going to make an exception. My soon to be Son in Law, bought a new Marlin Bolt-action .30-06 for hunting this year and we were going to go to the range and break it in. It was also suppose to be a good excuse to [...]
Electric City Weblog has a post up about the rash of knife violence in the UK. This really isn’t a surprise to me since the UK is often brought up whenever the topic of “Gun Control” surfaces as an example of what could happen here if we allowed the Feds to legislate away our right [...]
It wasn’t my intention to abandon this blog (or Pragmatic Revolt)for that matter but Real life intervened. Between dealing with issues on the home front (nothing bad, just time consuming), adjusting my schedule to my wife’s Graveyard Schedule, and just keeping things together, I slid pretty bad on both my web work and my blogs.

I have kept the option of re-opening Pragmatic Revolt open and have been considering it for a while now. Since I am re-doing my websites (both Moorcat.com and Apache Gun and Blades), I have decided to make some changes here as well. I want to keep this site focused on my crafting, knifemaking, gunsmithing and [...]

I have been insanely busy trying to get things done before fall sets in. So far, I have completed the project with our front median, started replacing the concrete sidewalks where they have disintegrated, replaced the steps for our side deck and repainted most of that deck, as well as other, less involved projects - [...]

For weeks, my wife and I have been trying to plan a weekend trip to Bozeman to see my brother. We haven’t seen him since Christmas (he works insanely hard and has little time to travel to Dillon) and I miss him and his wife. Understand that we planned this trip before finding out that [...]

In Dillon, it is common for one governmental agency to sue another. There have been many suits involving various parts of the Dillon Government and most of them appear to be nothing more than “appendage measuring contests”. In fact, at many City Council meetings, Mayor “Recall” Malesich has been heard to say (with a large [...]

The first set of furniture is done and installed in the gunsmithing room. It isn’t pretty but it is certainly functional and cost less than $100.00 to build. Two more phases to go. I should be done with all of it by the first week in August.
These pieces were constructed of OSB and 1″ X [...]
