A Trifecta of FAFO! Only gooderer would be if it was a trifecta of DRTs. But, hey…as the man said…”2 out of 3 ain’t bad…”
I’ve set a primary weapon in every room in the house. Y’all don’t mind, do you?
I dug into that Cold Steel Linky. May just have to dig into my wallet and get spendy with them fellas. Looked at their cane swords and other cutlery last week. May have to compare their camp axes with my Estwings. Might not be a bad idea to have another e-tool available. Our Beloved AW1Ed is always wanting a new slit trench dug.
I don’t stage weapons in the house as it would be a PITA to get them and put them in the safe. Instead I have a very capable pistol in my pocket all the time. Yeah cargo pants come in handy.
