Beretta’s 92 handgun is a classic firearm that not only defined the brand, but has served the U.S. military for four decades.

(Continued from Part 2. This concludes the article.) Location Uses and Upgrades I Made Kitchen Table – The table is under the beams which support the loft. With the table mostly being used as a work space and for playing games, a light hanging from above was needed. The lantern lights hanging upside down were enough for eating but more light would be preferable for other activities. As mentioned, the A-19 was the perfect solution. The shadowless light was as bright as the 120-volt lights they were replacing. For the test, the small riding-mower core battery was used to power…

While Heckler & Koch’s USA subsidiary offered several notably popular handgun models for the American market, notably its VP9 line of polymer-frame, striker-fired handguns, a truly micro-compact, easily concealable offering wasn’t forthcoming, even as the micro-compact concept took off. Several years in, though, a corporate restructuring allowed HK USA to tackle the concept, and the result was the well-built CC9. Watch our “Gun of the Week” video above to see the CC9 in action on the range. “If your thoughts when you hear ‘Heckler & Koch’ and ‘handgun’ go to the ‘horse pistol’ Mk23, you’re going to be surprised at…

We target specific hatches, return to the same spots, use the same lures and baits, and hope we’re doing the right thing to get the job done.But sometimes you still get skunked. Then, anglers will say things like “the fish weren’t biting” or “it’s called fishing, not catching” or “the big one got away.” The truth is fish are always biting, you can always catch them, and you let the big one get away. In reality, you probably…
No one needs an introduction to chronic wasting disease (CWD) at this point, or the recounting of its history and incurable nature. It is now found in 37 states and its footprint in some locations is growing. The disease is not caused by a bacteria or virus, but by a prion (“PREE-on”), a type of infectious protein that is not folded the way it should be. When these prions come into contact with the normal form of the same protein, those normal proteins also misfold in a cascading effect.We are fortunate that teams of disease specialists and managers are working…
