I'm going to try to start making some stuff with 550 but I don't have any more. Anybody got a line on good prices? Sportsmansguide.com says 20 bucks I think for 300 ft. Seems kinda high, no?

lapolicegear 1000ft $40, code "thanks15" will net you 15% off.

I know I'm new around here, but I've been lurking for a while.  I'm gonna do a review of the lapolicegear, "truspec" cord soon.  I've found it slightly lacking for survival purposes, but fine for paracord man-crafts.  I'll post a link when it's done.

I too found that it is a differences then the other roll I have. The "Mil-spec" stuff has 7 strains of the same size.
While the LA Police Gear 550 has 4 strains of the same, 2 slightly smaller, and one VERY small black line.

Here is my 1st attempt, haven't done one of these since summer camp a long time ago, course that was not paracord.  This one I did without gutting the cord.

Nothing special, something I did a while ago and just got around to taking pictures the other day.

Swedish Mora that I keep in/on my ATV.

I believe it's a 20' - 25' length of cord from a parachute that I took apart.

Made this today. Still haven't figured out how to melt the ends and make it look decent. I used a soldering iron and it turned out ok, but I know there is a better way?????

Took a few more pics today of stuff today that I've had laying around for a while.





This is the stock on my little AR-7 survival rifle. Seemed like a good place to put some cord that might come in handy one day.

Mine is an older charter arms model, but it works fine. Not a bad little gun for it was made for.

I keep mine in my ATV with a couple packs of ammo. I know it will work if I ever need to pull it out.

I also have a papoose, but it doesn't give you the choice of being self contained.

Pick one up if you find a good price on one.

Anyone have the link about making magpulls with paracord? Not the one loop under the floor plate, but where you wrap the body with the cord.

Thanks
