It's funny, you can buy stuff carved out of ivory but not just plain ivory. I know elephant has been banned for a long time. The hippo tooth is also now on the list. The pieces I got must have...

Well I found out Walrus ivory is illegal in many states including here in Washington. I found out what a Ironwood tree looks like, kind of surprising it's really bushy and not surprisingly it...

I think the Walrus tooth is also ivory. Don't the eskimo's carve those into some pretty cool stuff? We don't got Walrus's in these parts, got sea lions but while they eat salmon like crazy I don't...

Good to know, I'll be on the search as the piggy bank allows. Actually the piggy bank looks more like a chihuahua right now, but I'll work at fattening him up. It's kind of a slow process these...

Before the last transition about the time of my retirement (thank god) we sent all our Glock 21's to Robar. Now sadly gone. (6 at a time as we had spares). They removed the finger grooves, did the...

The bobbed ones are stabilized box elder burl. Very nice, think I still have those. I just took the picture of the tooth with that gun probably cause I was wearing it that day.

Hippo tooth is Ivory. A member here sent me the tooth and I made him a set that he had scrimshawed. Got two other sets out of the tooth as well. Hard to work with. Thought I'd posted pics here...

I've mentioned it before but I was impressed with the 1942 Colt a friends uncle gave me along with his M1 Carbine. Both were in his duffle bag sat in a corner untouched since Korea I think? When he...

That's the model we got for one of my PD Chiefs. Only one I ever ran across that didn't like Wilson mags. It ran fine with the Para mags. Mine which is the same but has a beavertail runs fine on...

Hey pal, your the one that thunk up the renewed interest in ironwood. I ain't taking the hit on that one. Got me watching for nice pieces too.
Fall on your sword. It's your fault. I think your...

Your permit is specific to your gun? You have to add each gun you want to carry? I know the officers had to qualify with each gun they wanted to carry off duty. I had to keep track of that stuff. ...

He certainly is. I need a grandpa something fierce.

Looks great!

Actually that's perfect. That's where all the people who need to get voted out hang out. Hopefully it turns into a giant sink hole and swallows the whole bunch. Drain swamp as it were. I'm a...

Detectives usually have more flex as far as what they carry. Our dept was that way. If they put on a uniform they carry the standard issue.
Kahrs used to be on the approved NYPD carry list, hence...

Yeah but Danny's K40 holds 26 rounds. Welcome to Hollywood. Steven Segals 1911's hold 32.

We're in the process of replacing the lower 3 feet of the siding on the house. Rotted, typical mobile home cardboard. Have a hired guy but I know him and his daughter who works with him so I'm...

I get sore hands from just about everything. Gets to wear they cramp up even holding a screwdriver or a checkering tool. They say pain is a good thing, it lets you know your still alive. Not sure...

That looks like a good fit. That's how I often times have to do the safety plunger. Worked out just fine. I guess I should have figured that the Ed Brown would have an extended safety but it's ok.

I have 3 LDA's and love them but they are all stainless. Actually the one is two tone, black and stainless, looks cool. That's the one my son got. Actually that's a bald faced lie to, my compact...

Well I used up all but about 2" of that nice piece of Bolivian Rosewood I had. Old commander, long retired now, asked me for a shadow box for his badges. Wanted it small and not deep. Most of the...

I expected the plunger piece might be an issue. Not really since it was so thin snapping it off would have been easy. Can never tell making a grip on my gun how it's gonna work on somebody elses. ...

The green finish on those doesn't hold up for beans. Officer at the PD had one and in no time it lookes like it'd been drug behind the truck. Para didn't want to do anything about it.

I have a smaller version of that, about 8" overall that I used to carry all the time. Still do sometimes but not leaving the house much, it pretty much lives on the dresser.

I got booted out of a lot of diversity classes. My worst subject was profiling. I was good at that, I'd be a great asset at airport screening.
