    Promo Code Needed for Midway USA

    I usually get them all by email and I don't believe there are any current codes available. I haven't seen a $20 or $25 off a $250 purchase in some time.

    My Mayor has an online poll - the questions are tilted to get the answers he wants.

    Anyone else note the irony of the mayor's surname, Slay?

    Sept 27, Buffalo, NY - Get your cash cards, no service fee

    Regarding self-defense with firearms, why don't the antis say, "If just one life is saved, it's worth it?"

    Sept 27, Buffalo, NY - Get your cash cards, no service fee

    Ah, liberals! Results and outcomes just don't matter as long as what you're doing makes you feel good! What a shameful fleecing of the Buffalo city taxpayers.

    Brother in law in a bind!

    Lesson #1 to be learned here: KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT AND DO NOT VOLUNTEER INFORMATION TO THE POLICE! (when not compelled by law)

    Gustav gun confiscation underway

    Yea, boy! If you're unable to purchase a car, at least have some emergency money saved for a respectable cab ride out of town or make pre-evacuation arrangements with someone who owns a vehicle. Before I stepped on one of those "disarmament buses," I'd be shoving a $100 bill in some cabby's face...

    Bullet Overstabilization?

    I think a very important piece of data is missing, yes? What will the barrel length be on your PISTOL? Are many of us jumping right to rifle twist rates here or I am just totally off? I'm not at all familiar with formal benchrest pistol shooting so maybe I'm missing something in this discussion.

    is there a gun you wouldn't want?

    Glock…… Experienced a failure when the recoil spring assembly flew apart after roughly 600 rounds. First major firearm failure for me. Glock tech support suggested changing the recoil spring assembly every 1000 rounds. I’ll never own another.

    scope eyes

    There is a principle called "accomodation" which is a normal function of ocular physiology. In simple terms, accomodation is when surrounding muscle tissue changes the shape of our ocular lenses as our needs for focus change. My personal opinion is that you are simply experiencing a "slow...

    Artificial heart valves & shooting

    I may not be telling you something you don't already know, but just in case: If significant recoil becomes an issue, always remember there are products available for range time such as the Caldwell Lead Sled: http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpage.exe/showproduct?saleitemid=152664...

    Artificial heart valves & shooting

    Excellent post, YK! The fact that ctdonash could be a Coumadin patient didn't even dawn on me. ctdonash, you should schedule a CYP450 2C9/VKORC1 microarray-based genetic profile immediately.....kidding, Sir! Gotta love guns & medicine! (But not in the guns & drugs sense!)

    Artificial heart valves & shooting

    HA! Swampgator, you'll have to forgive me since it's been so long ago since I've been intimately involved in this stuff; about 22 years ago to be exact. I think I'm following your thoughts above, but I may just have to take your word for it at this point, brother. :D Here's to healthy...

    Artificial heart valves & shooting

    Sir, we hope you see many more years, too. Fortunately, ctdonath's pacemaker situation is a little less complicated than yours (less wiring anyway), but certainly he still must be careful and he must be a compliant patient as you are. I hope he can continue to shoot his choice of firearms and...

    Artificial heart valves & shooting

    From someone not unfamiliar with the surgical procedure for PM placements, +1 on that comment. The connection between the lead (wire) and the device is quite robust, but who's to guess the min/max gun caliber which may cause damage. As a side note, the lead can't be "built-in" to the device...

    Get your shotgun - Russians Invade Georgia (Cartoon)

    MinnMooney, you're absolutely right with your comments above, and I'm still not sure if you were actually offended by the cartoon, but please allow me further commentary. I'm really just trying to make a point, and it's not necessarily aimed at you. Your comments just gave me a good springboard...

    Get your shotgun - Russians Invade Georgia (Cartoon)

    I agree. Irrespective of the artist's intent, the cartoon certainly depicts a man with guts and a willingness to fight for what's his. That's a badge of honor, man. I miss the days when you could tell a funny joke based on stereotypical humor without every ninny gasping in offense. We need to...
