Illinois is trying to pass a nasty ammunition law right now. Bad timing. Daley will have a field day. <arghhh>

I use a ammo carrier to carry my Treo 650 on my belt. Works great. Doesn't come lose or break. I probably broke three or four Treo commercial holsters before I found this ammo carrier. I'm not even sure what kind of carrier this is. I just stumbled on this carrier at an Army surplus store...

Combs I flew out to Denver in 2002 to pick up a van with a one way ticket. I just know it's going to be a bad trip. I'm fulling expecting a full body cavity search due to the one way trip. So, when I go through the metal detector it beeps of course. I can't find anything on me made of...

Check out packing.org for Illinois specific law information. We're in a constant battle with King Daley and his minions. Sometimes we win, sometimes we don't. The laws approach the California standard of stupidity.

The P7 has one flaw. It gets a bit warm (ok, hot enough to burn skin) after several hundred rounds in a short amount of time (an hour or so).

I don't know. I've went there with other buddies and shot together (changing lanes, and guns). I've also taken my children (15 yrs old and 12 yrs old) there and we only use one lane. But I've never taken an adult 'guest' that shares the lane with me or that doesn't shoot. Hmm, come to...

Never been there. Isn't that near I-80/I-94 E. If so it will be a bear to get there from anyplace west. There's considerable construction work being done in that area. Last friday I left around noon from near Naperville for a little camping excursion down near Chain of Lakes in Indiana...

Hmmm, where's center of mass on a snake? The head? Does it matter if the snake is poisonous or not? I've shot snakes before but never when my life or a loved one's life might depend upon a good hit.

Arggh! Kimchi all over the keyboard, screen, desk, floor, and wall. Thanks Thumper now I have to get a new house! Moral of the story: Never eat or drink while catching up on THR.

You might be a gun nut if when you hear the word "Sears" it takes you a minute to figure out they are talking about a store and not a gun part.

More then two fingers on each hand have small round calluses from the set screw hole in a 1911 trigger.

The S&W bag holds a set of jumper cables, a cheater bar, and no guns or gun stuff. I have a vinyl/plastic shield for the lack of a better term that prevents anyone from seeing what is in the back of my vehicle. The cop could see the S&W bag this time because the tailgate was wide open, the...

Go read up on the IL laws. Check out the cities around you. Quite a number of cities routinely violate the Constitution (Morton Grove, Chicago, etc) by making it illegal to have a handgun in your home. Be especially careful about Chicago. I was once stopped by a Chicago cop I believe...

Wow, some of you had some scary ex(s). My little gal is the daughter of a sheriff. When an acquaintance offered to sell me a full-sized H&K USP 9 for $300, she said you buy that or don't come home. I just grinned. Finding the right woman is so important. You first have to find one...

Jeff: You need to really start complaining about that to your local providers. If they can bill the call they can provide ANI to a PSAP. My guess is one or more of the paths from one or more cell towers to the PSAP is misconfigured. It's really easy to do. Especially, if one of the...

All calls (99.9+% made to 911 systems) will have delivered the ANI (Automatic Number Identification - the caller id) of the phone that placed the call to the 911 system. So the police know who made the call. They can find out who, when, and from where. Now they just need to prosecute that...

Don't know, I don't watch movies all that often. The hardware/software I'm talking about helped people make phone calls. http://www.dmine.com/phworld/history/attcrash.htm

Years ago, I was involved with a fairly large hardware/software project. There were several hundred instances of this program running on computers all around the nation. Each instance of that program talked to the other instances to report 'problems' and 'events' of importance. Some new...

On Mondays - Indoor Range #1 (limited to 45 cal max) On Tuesdays - Indoor Range #2 (up to 30-06) Rest of week, pray the shakes go away :p It's a great addiction!

Beware of plastic combs In November, I had to go pick up a vehicle (it had broken down on a little trip we had taken earlier this year) in Aurora near Denver. So here I am a male traveling alone with a one way ticket. I was already sure I was going to be delayed so I was super careful about...
