I recently published a short book about my Universal Testing Apparatus Handgun, or UTAH. I am publishing it mostly as a historical reference, kind of like publishing a pioneer’s personal journal, except that in this case it’s a collection of machining sketches and testing notes rather than expeditionary journal entries. It’s not a tutorial on gun building or gunsmithing, per se, but might still be an interesting read for the aspiring builder or inventor of firearms. The video above is an announcement about the book that I posted on YouTube and UGETube.

Idaho was one of the last continental US states to be settled and, more so than some parts of the US, the culture of Idaho still retains a frontier spirit of self-reliance. As host of TheIdahoanShow on YouTube, I endeavor to produce videos capturing this enduring pioneer spirit, at least as it is practiced by this Idahoan. Of course, shooting and associated ancillary activities are an important part of Idahoan culture, and so many of my videos pertain in some way to the making or testing of firearms and/or ammunition. Here on the Reloaders’ Network, I have endeavored to consolidate this portion of my work as a reference for the reloading community.
