"Bear ammo" in the Valor yesterday - works fine. I think I'll take a break from the range for a couple of weeks, kind of tired of cleaning that thing :)

The obvious answer is to just keep shooting and don’t clean it. . . 😂😁

It went against all my Marine training, not to mention my OCD about keeping my guns clean; but just as an experiment, I once went five or six range sessions without field stripping or cleaning my Springfield TRP. I just kept the rails & barrel/bushing, basically any place I could squirt oil into, well lubed, and it just kept plugging away. I broke down after about three weeks & detail striped it, and cleaned it.:)
 
Two or three weeks ago I thought I was back to regular posting here when two weekends in a row of winter storms disrupted the last of our b-ball regular season and the majority of our playoffs. I had a ton of rescheduling to do with associated calls, texts, and emails with the schools, our directors, and coaches, moving games/series to different days and gyms. We got through those two and finished the third weekend with playoff makeups and our league finals overlapping and I'm done for the season save for bill-paying and a bit of mop-up.

After a couple days to unwind, I'm rested up and back to normal pursuits including spending time here at BF. I got my Narrows sold, boxed up, and on the way to the Left Coast and figured I'd sell my REI exclusive BMK 531 as that model is really too small for me to handle comfortably. I showed it to my wife, got that look, and knew right away that she liked and wanted it, much like what became of my AXIS Mini Stryker, a knife that's often in her pocket now and one of her favorites. This time she offered to make a trade and was willing to part with her full-size Stryker 908, a knife I've often coveted and occasionally sneak into my pocket. I've had and loved the KSF CF 908BK-1501 since it came out and it's a user, but not a work user, and, while I'd liked to have had the cash for 531, I'm even more pleased to have this second Stryker in 154CM and G10 as a favorite pattern to beat up on a bit. I got it tuned up, lubed, re-sharpened (I really like how easy it is to get a wicked keen edge on 154CM), and hung a new tail on it.

Here's a pic of my two Strykers...

...and here's the the new-to-me full-size along with my wife's Mini. Of course I ordered and paid for both back when and have just one of them, a kind of a "buy two get none free" deal, but I'm definitely glad she's a Rule 9 adherent, though, and am happy to lend my support.

Cool knives and the best lanyard game as always!
