• Possible Downtime Alert

    I am working to migrate THR from the current cluster to a new one. I would like to get this done before the weekend, but it's unclear what the timeframe will be, as testing is still ongoing. As I am writing this the new (rebuilt) host is doing a burn-in to ensure that everything will keep running under load.

    When the migration happens users will see a Cloudflare message indicatating it cannot connect to the server. This is expected, and depending on how the migration goes this may last from 30 minutes to 3 hours - I won't know more until testing the various migration options is complete and I have finalized the plan.

    More information is available in this thread.

    As always, thanks so much for your patience.

Hmm...What do I need next?

I vote 1911 or a 4" 686. A high quality handgun like one of those (or both). I just don't feel safe without three or four .357's and 1911s around.
 
You need several; here is my suggested list. For the rifles, I list them in order of increasing cost within the category.

1. Battle Rifle: M1 Garand, PTR91, FN FAL, or M1A/M14. Whatever you prefer.

2. Intermediate caliber rifle: SKS, AK, AR. Again, your preference.

3. Any decent .22 pistol, preferably Ruger. This is just so you can afford some range time. Oh, and buy a few cases of .22LR while you're at it... ammo prices are increasing rapidly.

4. 1911, BHP, CZ75, Sig... you need an all-steel pistol. My Taurus 1911SS is great. :D

5. Consider a shotgun. I'm no expert -- I have only one, a Mossberg 930 semi-auto... very reasonably priced and not a hiccup, even with cheap Wal-mart bulk ammo.
 
I like the matching idea Nematocyst suggested and would offer up for consideration a .22 lr pistol. A Colt Diamondback would be a nice find, or you could go with a classics like a Ruger standard or a Buckmark.
 
Thanks for all the replys.

Though remember, I have a shotgun and an SKS.

Oh, Theres a blame Steve club?
I have two reasons, Involving a Case knife and a brand new 870...:neener:
