    Two new posters

    What does it say about me that I first ...and second noticed the gun in the second picture. I had to go back to catch the....."Un-Puritan points". I think my mother would be proud of me...I'm growing up. I like them. The right side of the first picture makes me cringe, though - not because of...

    Confiscated

    Um, El T? Kiesler's main page says they do not sell to the civilian market.

    Who comes up with this stuff?

    Isn't that the truth. Even Harleys these days - used to be you could buy a Sportster, now you can buy an FLH, or an FLHT, or an FLHTXSRFP. Seriously. sm, keep on doing what you're doing.

    Airweights are sturdy. or, My friend shot his gun!

    No, it wasn't laughed off. We all took it as a learning experience. He was ahead of everyone else, with both guns pointed dowwnrange. We weren't in a formal range per se, just a shooting pit out in the middle of nowhere. This is a good idea. Not that he was a new shooter, but it's still a...

    Airweights are sturdy. or, My friend shot his gun!

    Yes, he's dangerous. That's largely why I keep him around - mostly for the fact that I'd rather have him on my side, and keep him where I can see him. For the most part he's a safe shooter, but he slips every once in a while. We had a talk about putting down the guns when dealing with things...

    Airweights are sturdy. or, My friend shot his gun!

    In November I acquired a Taurus 605 for CCW. My friends was inspired by this to get his own, but was put off by the Taurus reputation, and the cylinder on mine occasionally sticking when you cock the hammer (he claims - this has never happened to me.) So he bought a S&W 360. Titanium cylinder...

    He (Didn't) Go to Jareds!

    Update: Well, it's official. I've finally seen a no guns sign in Maine. I'm definitely going to let them know they're not going to have my patronage. The only reason I didn't today is because I had my daughter and was on a tight schedule.

    Redundant question?

    What disturbs me is there are many people out there who believe this. I'm genuinely curious as to how they believe wars were waged prior to the invention of the modern firearm, or if they honestly believe that no crimes were ever committed.

    From JEMS; Man pulls gun on EMTs...

    Interfering with the job - yes, I can buy that argument. Assaulting, however.....It's still kind of fuzzy. I'm not seeing how it's any more grievous to assault one particular type of person, but not another. In my mind it borders on class distinction/better citizens. As for certain people...

    From JEMS; Man pulls gun on EMTs...

    Now, don't get me wrong - I'm not saying that what he did was right (or even justified) and I'm certainly not trying to deride EMTs, Firefighters, or any Emergency Service personnel - they have a tough and thankless job and I respect the hell out of that. But is it necessary to have a separate...

    The Tunnel Rat's Chief 36

    Huh, I know that guy. I mean John (if you're talking the manager at KTP) not the other guy. Wish I did though. That's gotta be some story.

    He (Didn't) Go to Jareds!

    They put in a Jared's at my local (well, not local, but the closest) mall last year. I haven't been in there, haven't had a need. I do have a need to go to this mall tomorrow so I think I'll stop by and see if they have one. I have never ever seen a no guns sign in this state (then again I've...

    Saiga 12s

    I got one back in August, and I count myself damn lucky to have gotten it for 439 (plus 20 shipping and 20 in transfer, but hey.) I saw one single Saiga of any caliber at the last gun show I went to, they wanted $600 for one S12 and two AGP Mags. It wasn't a terribly bad deal, considering the...

    Does The Bore Ever REALLY Get Clean?

    Heh, I saw the thread title and thought to myself "I wonder how many posts it takes for sm to come in here and say 'what's bore cleaning?'"

    One of the deadliest ammo's on the planet?? Or not so much . . .?

    I think (and I'm feeling that limb he's out on) he's saying that we all know frangible bullets are less than desirable for defensible purposes in standard calibers, but they may be more effective at larger calibers. Something on the order .44, .454, .500 is what he seems to be implying. Might...

    For the love of pete. Fumigation was a nightmare.

    And hopefully that person doesn't show up smelling like alcohol..... Really, the changing-one-lock-and-giving-them-that-key was the idea I had reading the thread. Then on thinking more about it (being lazy and cheap) I probably would have just grabbed a screwdriver and removed the whole knob...

    THREEBAND made me do it.

    Hrmm, makes me want to order some custom targets with moa silhouettes. I'm going to send an email off to my rep and see if we can't moa hunting seaon on the books - maybe even a bounty. Those things are vicious! You're right John828, that thing could just bend over to scratch an itch and BAM...

    THREEBAND made me do it.

    Zombies aren't real? Shame, good sir, shame. I shall forget you uttered those words. I just failed to see how a snipe hunt related to a moa hunt. But fear not, I rarely let "facts" and "truth" get in the way of..well, anything.
