    Thanks very much for the info on this kukri! :) I think I'll print out the names/descriptions you've given me and hang the knife on the garage wall.

    Hi all, I recently found this kukri when going through my grandfather's stuff. I don't know anything about it; looks a bit "touristy" but it must be quite old (as he died before I was born). No...

    What XR500 says, plus 4x MaxTrax. I use the MaxTrax to get myself out, and my winch is generally to get others out. Maxtrax are brilliant things.

    Thanks again for the comments and thoughts. I ended up putting the Leupold on the sako 243, Nikon on the sako 22, the Tasco on the older 22, and the Minolta spare. The 223 kept its old Bushnell. ...

    Thanks for that. TBH I had never heard of Minox of Nikon doing scopes - shows how little I browse the stores I guess. The Minox is stamped Germany, but has a really free-turning parralax ring which...
