Fears is a firearms writer. His book is decent. Wayne is just making a living like everyone else. If somebody likes his gun articles they are likely to buy his book and knife. If they get in a wreck and those two items untangle the user fine. I'm just a little jaded with the all to easily applied appelation of 'expert' I recently watched a gun 'expert' fail to withdraw the bolt from a Moisin-Nagant rifle at a sporting goods store. The more he tried, the more he sweated in his Orvis tweed ,leatherpatched shooting jacket ( in California June weather!). The teenage clerk was worried he'd break it, I'm standing there taking sinfull pleasure in both their discomfort. Anything Russian is usually 'robust and simple' to a fault:translation being a illitearte serf can operate and not break the people's property . I finally volunteered to strip the rifle and did so. I was the expert. I walked ouside and my friend's new BMW wouldn't start. We've both pushed wrenches on various cars. But this one was towed- to an expert. <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
