Chromerunner: I too am interested about the missing trigger gaurds. I'll bet you don't holster that colt cocked and locked :what:

Better be careful. That coon you're talking about is a skunk!! ;)

As far as North America (my only experience) goes, elk is by far my favorite. A buddy of mine got one last year and he took the backstrap, sliced it into 1.5" medallions, wrapped them with a piece of bacon, put a tooth pick through it and through it on the top shelf of the grill for a short...

Dude.... you totally got ripped off. Tell you what; since I hate to see this happen to you, I've got an idea: I'll give you $350.00 for the lot because I feel so bad for you ;)

If you like the mini 14, $627.00 brand new at Walmart. If you want some serious power: you mentioned the guide gun. I have an 1895GS in 45-70 that is awesome. Small, not too heavy, and a "blast" to shoot. I'm sure that is plenty of punch for whatever you chose and are only about $500.00. Then...

I'm glad you didn't rip your friend off. :)

That's a good idea. Not to long ago, I read on THR of someone doing the same thing. When solicitor would come to his door, he would snap a photo of them with his phone. He also said he did the same for strange vehicles parked where they "shouldn't" be. The way I figure, it wouldn't hurt. The...

Seriously? I hope you're joking. Well, that is what China does. Maybe we should model our country after China.

I attend a concealed campus university and there has never been an issue. We have campus police occasionally come and talk to us about the dangers of guns and they try to discourage us from carrying. I pay no attention. If it were up to campus police and university employees, we would be legally...

True. We are arguing different points. What I am saying is that decelerating from above the sound barrier to below has no additional effect. It is the initial compression of the waves that the projectile penetrates that has play in ballistics.

That's pretty funny. There is no sonic boom when slowing down.

It does not effect accuracy. The sound barrier is not a singular event that occurs at a certain speed but rather you perceive the event as a finite "crack" when actually it is occuring constantly when traveling above the "barrier". When the projectile is slowing down, there is not another boom.

It sounds like those of us here who are Aggies (maybe only me) should feel lucky. I do.:)

Some of the scandium and titanium J's go for more than $800 USED!! What model is the J? If you're more inclined towards Glock, make the trade, sell the Smith, buy a Glock, and pocket the difference. That's what I'd do.

I've got a 3x9x40 on my .308. I bought it new for around $150 I think. I have never owned a buckmaster or monarch but the prostaff is the best rifle scope I have ever owned.
