If I'm completely missing my right arm I'll be sufficiently motivated to make it happen:) Several years ago when I took off my pistol (with an ambi safety) at the end of the day it was off safe. ...
I don't care for either laser sights or ambidextrous safeties. 1911 safeties are reasonably easy to install for someone with modest skills. Over the years I've had a couple just "drop in”, but...

Rob,
I do believe the snare wire is 2 feet. I've not attended their survival training and don't know what the detailed philosophy is. Sometimes the requirements have a not so obvious utility.
Saw,
I bought a Knives of Alska Alpha Wolf a couple of years ago and am in love with it. Much tougher than it appears, though I do like the look of the esee3, and Moras are a lot of knife for the...
