I'd trade my new 1301 shotgun for

There are douchenozzles on the Interwebz. News at 11.       Are you saying that censorship is the right way to handle speech with which you disagree?

No, that’s not how it works. If the material can be identified it is either returned to the owner or seized as evidence. I wouldn’t pay the scrap yard a dime, and if I was the responding Officer they would give the name of who brought it in or they would be arrested also. Sounds like someone is giving you a BS story.

I'd think that the local news would be interested in this story.

I will be making my yearly trip to Germantown this week.Stop by and see us

A young cowboy from Montana goes off to college. Half way through the semester, having foolishly squandered all his money .... he calls home. "Dad," he says, "You won't believe what modern education is developing! They actually have a program here in Alabama that will teach our dog, Ole' Blue how to talk!" "That's amazing," his Dad says. "How do I get Ole' Blue in that program?" "Just send him down here with $1,000" the young cowboy says "and I'll get him in the course." So, his father sends the dog and $1,000. About two-thirds of the way through the semester the money again runs out. The boy calls home. "So how's Ole' Blue doing son?" his father asks. "Awesome, Dad, he's talking up a storm," he says, "but you just won't believe this -- they've had such good results they have started to teach the animals how to read!" "Read!?" says his father, "No kidding! How do we get Blue in that program?" "Just send $2,500, I'll get him in the class." The money promptly arrives. But our hero has a problem. At the end of the year, his father will find out the dog can neither talk, nor read. So he shoots the dog. When he arrives home at the end of the year, his father is all excited. "Where's Ole' Blue? I just can't wait to see him read something and talk!" "Dad," the boy says, "I have some grim news. Yesterday morning, just before we left to drive home, Ole' Blue was in the living room, kicked back in the recliner, reading the Wall Street Journal, like he usually does". "Then Ole' Blue turned to me and asked, so, is your daddy still messing around with that little redhead who lives down the street?" The father went white and exclaimed, "I hope you shot that lying dog before he talks to your Mother!" "I sure did, Dad!" "That's my boy!" The kid went on to law school, and now serves in Washington D.C. as a Congressman.

Some educational stuff that I did not know about the Crusades and Jihad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_To-cV94Bo

Think ya' got enough scope there Butch?

I can happily say I have some of that "run off " put away and thats thanks to 2 TGO members whose livers shall remain nameless ;)

  No sir, I wasn't referring to you, or this thread, at all and I never took it as a dig.  This is a legit gripe.  Sorry if I came across otherwise.  I was just speaking in generalities in the second part of my post. I'm generally not an LE apologist...I've weighed in on the dip####s as much as I've been pro-cop here.  Every field has them.   Me, and my agency, are definitely NOT perfect.  But when I hear stories like your OP, I just shake my head.   BTW, I'm assuming the dollar amount puts the theft in the felony range.  I would not consider that trivial at all.  Regards.

  Most wont because it's not about truth and facts, many will simply refuse to admit that it is Islam that is still acting like they did 1000 years ago and not everyone else. That's why they have to go back 1000 years to find some argument to attempt to defend their position, then I have heard some of them try to compare one single person who comitted a terrorist attack,(McVeigh) to the thousands of attacks that happen every year in the name of Islam. It doesn't matter to them to remind them that America convicted and executed McVeigh they will still try to make a comparison. I really believe that these liberal-progressive radicals hate us much more than they hate the real enemy, 10th century Islamists. They are always trying to make some excuse for them, and that's exactly what it is, an excuse for acting the way they do, they sympathize with evil jihadist murderers because they hate conservative thinking traditional,(real) Americans. We are in a cold civil war of ideoligies in America between the socialists, (liberal-progressives), and traditional Americans who still believe that America is the greatest country. We are not going to give the enemy a real fight until the socialist liberal progressive who can't admit that radical Islam is the real enemy is out of the WH in 2016.

Nothing more addictive to guv'mint than tax revenues.

  Mostly this. This case is a slam dunk for a "defective."  :) They like those, as these cases boost their "clearance rates."  I'm really surpised that they're not jumping on this. This would not be the case where I work.      This leads me to a personal / TGO thing.  Sometimes I read anti-cop type posts here and, of course, they're not my favorite. But understand, I base my LE opinions on where I work, my officers (I supervise 12), and how we do things.  For the most part, I think we get it right. Apparently, that's not the case across the State...and I have to remind myself of that. So I guess to say, if you base your LE opinions on personal experience (or close 2nd hand as in this case), good or bad, I'm cool with that. But the "my brother's wife's cousin's" stories are always silly to me.   Sorry, back to the topic...

Got this Willet Straight Rye Small Batch last week at a silent auction. It's bottled at barrel strength 108 so it's definitely a little hot. It's got a pretty sweat taste on the front with some oaky char on the back. It got better as it diluted a little. I think it'll be great in an old fashion or Manhattan

If this passes, I will post a picture of my pet unicorn....

Found one in town today for the same as I would have ordered and paid transfer on .....she's ready for optics ....

Actually it sounds like an excellent idea I am all for it and I would propose that all criminals have their illegal firearms fitted with them. Really you cant fix stupid.

or maybe the police just don't care.   I am sure they feel there are bigger fish to fry than a thieving pillhead.      I would not be surprised if the scrap yard knew it was stolen.   Pawn shops know when they are dealing with a thief and they don't care.

Obama dies and goes to hell. Satan says, here's no room but you ain't leaving so I'm gonna let one person go and since I'm the king of making deals, I'll let you decide who I let go and you can take their place. Room one, Al Gore getting fried by the sun with no ozone protecting him. ...Obama says, no not this one. Room two, Ted Kennedy drowns in a pool of alcohol. ...no, not this one. Room three, Bill Clinton is kicked back smoking a cigar while Monica lewinsky is under his desk doing what she does best. He's got a million dollar smile on his face. ...Obama says, oh I'll take this one. Ole devil grins and says..." Okay Monica, your free to go."

Really though, I'm only kidding myself. I am rich in .22 though. Got a call from my mom today who was going through some things and found these two bricks of .22. Long story short it's mine now. [URL=http://s1246.photobucket.com/user/gjohnsoniv/media/0206151924a_zps99ec1349.jpg.html][/URL] Check it out, $ .94 per box of 50. It hasn't been that low in a long time. Next thing to do is take it out to the range tomorrow and test it for quality purposes. :lol:

Now thats what I'm talking about! Seriously BA looking rig there!

It would take what most Americans are unwilling to do and that is kill every Muslim born for the next two generations. Until we do that every little Muslim will grow up to be a big threat. Drive the Muslim religion underground and it will eventually disappear.

I did not take it that way.

Stirring a post for a HK product with a 30 rd mag.......LOL.

  If our retired ID won't do, maybe that picture of us with Brian Williams standing next to the CH-47 that we were shot down in will work.      Speaking of that, I wonder if Brian Williams gets a military discount at Lowe's.   AND Getting Back On Topic - - - -   The Polish Plate should be unpinned for anybody shooting a HK product!   :stir:  

Hi all! I'm looking to move to Tennessee in about a year after I retire. Don't know exactly where yet but we have friends in Murfreesboro and Memphis, family in Newbern. I'm a avid shooter (USPSA,trap,black powder......), reloader, and general gun nut. NRA benefactor life and instructor. Retiring after almost 32 years in emergency services / law enforcement in Ca and can't wait to put this insane state in my rear view. And no, I won't be bringing any of the nut balls with me! ( the area of Ca I'm from is actually very conservative but we can no longer out vote the Bay Area and LA) Looking to meet new friends and find out where the best shooting is, hope to get back to hunting regularly too.

Sounds like a really bad idea.  I think that if someone needs to be shot then they need to be shot, not hit with a ping pong ball and a firearm should never be seen as both a 'lethal force' option and a 'less lethal' option in the same package.  This isn't Star Trek where they can set their phasers on stun.  I foresee several potentially bad outcomes:   1.  Causing a mindset in officers where they begin thinking of a regular duty gun loaded with regular duty ammo as a 'non-lethal' or 'less lethal' option, causing them to draw their firearm when doing so might not really be warranted, at all.   2.  Causing a mindset whereby an officer, out of a desire not to use deadly force, opts for the 'ping pong' ball when he should really just shoot someone's a** - and the officer ends up getting hurt or killed in the process.   3.  Causing incidents whereby the officer intends to use the less lethal option but either doesn't attach the device properly or, in the heat of the moment, forgets to attach it and ends up improperly and unintentionally using deadly force.  IMO, any 'less lethal' option needs to be an entirely separate device.   4.  Instead of alleviating the problem of public outcry when deadly force is used I think this would actually make the situation worse.  Just like some people now say, "Why didn't they just shoot him in the leg instead of killing him," if an officer made a judgement call that deadly force is required then the family and friends of the 'little angel who loved everybody and wouldn't hurt nobody' (and anyone else looking for a BS excuse to loot someone else's business or destroy someone else's property) would be saying, "Why didn't they just hit him with one of those ping pong balls?  They didn't have to kill him!"   This idea also breaks one of the basic rules of firearm safety - never point a firearm at something you aren't willing to destroy (or kill.)  To me, that rule is clear, concise and makes sense while this attachment simply confuses the situation.  If there is room on the officer's belt to carry this attachment in a pouch then there should be room for something that is completely separate and self-contained.  If there really is a place for something like this, how about something like one of those single-shot 12 gauge flare pistols built to handle a 12 gauge 'rubber slug' load and colored florescent green?  They could call it 'The Noisy Cricket".  Just a thought.

There are some other videos by this guy there are just as enlightening. The Muslims always say they will not slaughter innocents but "innocents" in their religion means anyone who is Muslim and innocent. Anyone who does not accept Allah is not considered to be innocent and will be killed. So the smallest child who is not Muslim is not considered innocent.   Their definitions of certain things, like innocent, are totally different than ours.

I think he does a good job   https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=H6otmy3DAK8

Not enough people buying tee shirts and range bags?   :shrug:

Just for fun...   http://www.littlebudha.com/this-injured-deer-is-caught-in-the-fence-now-watch-what-the-pit-bull-does/?utm_source=outbrain&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=this-injured-deer_LB_Desktop_Only

I thought my wife was the only one that did that.

  That's not even a fair comparison. Aside from looks the PPK has absolutely nothing going for it. You will be lucky to find one that isn't a lemon.

Whoa .......guys I didnt want to start a 3rd world war ...just wanted to share a skit by Jimmy Fallon.  

I'll give ya $400. Jews are good with money.

Yeah, and the idiot with the shotgun is going to have a hard time firing those rounds looped over his chest....

I belt they all smell like dirty, sweaty goats.....just sayin'.

Police not doing their job would be an interesting topic. EDIT: Especially considering the proplem of theft of other metals in the news.

If I was a cop and they wanted me to use this I would walk.

As far as I am concerned, all pro, no con.  A lot depends on what you want to use it for.  I wouldn't want to conceal carry it, but for an all around pistol, they are probably my favorite in the price range.

Not anger, but the pinnacle reason for my dislike for him is his song, Southern Man, because he stereotypes all men in the South as racists who are cracking whips at the black folks. I was raised in Kansas City, MO and knew many people from further North, and I see more racism in the Northern white man than I have ever seen in the Southern white man.

I don't buy/sell/trade outside of TGO and my LGS. No way in Hades I'd meet some of the people I see post on those facebook pages. I still follow them though, for my entertainment pleasure

I've set them up both ways, can't seem to tell much difference.  Then again, I don't really crimp 9mm, I set the dies to just barely remove the flare after seating the bullet.

Three men are shipwrecked on an island inhabited by an ancient tribe.  The chief tells the three men the island is sacred and has now been violated.  They must choose their punishment--death, or bula bula.  The first man asks, "What's bula bula?"  The chief only says, "You must choose."  The man says, "Well, give me bula bula."  His hands and feet are tied, his pants are pulled down, and he is bent over a log.  Ten tribesmen take turns sodomizing him.  The chief turns to the second man and says, "You must choose."  The second man, distraught, finally says, "Well, I don't want to die.  I guess I'll take bula bula."  His feet and hands are tied, his pants are pulled down, and he is bent over a log.  Ten tribesmen take turns sodomizing him.  The chief turns to the third man, who immediately says, "You don't even have to ask, just kill me."  The chief raises his spear above his head and yells, "Death by bula bula!"

  In related news, there are crazy people on the Internet.

I have never had great luck with the 7.5's. Try some Tula SRM primers and you will see a reduction in your SD numbers. Matter of fact when using 7.5 primers I had the worst SD numbers ever. This was against CCI 400, CCI 41, Wolf and Tula. I bought a bunch of 7.5s back in 2008 when all primers were scarce and I still have a bunch left over as last resort, or plinking, primers.

If my wife did that, my first reaction would be "who are you ****ing?"

I have read many threads on this subject and I really believe if you aren't where you intend to be you probably won't get there. I know all about bugout locations and such, but on your way home tomorrow, imagine something bad happened and you are stuck in the worst traffic jam you have ever seen. Now how is your $100K + 4x4 or 6x6 going to get you to your destination to begin your journey to you BOL. Just think how a simple traffic accident can clog up the interstate or 2 lane for hours. Now take that number of immobile vehicles and multiply by 1,000 or more and you get the gist. I recently was reminded that a few pairs of good hiking-walking boots or shoes would be the best method of mobility. Sorry to bust any bubbles, but although both my vehicles are 4x4 and I have a 4x4 Kawasaki Mule, eventually I will be on foot. Best of luck to us all if a SHTF scenario comes our way.

Hopefully, EMP is not part of the Zed Apocalypse, or most of your high dollar vehicles will become small shelters only. Assuming you can get out of them again!   - OS
