The one with the cigarette butt in it....

Well, though I agree with Rick's POV over the long run, he's really totally turned me off for the first time. Worse than just being crazy like back when he was seeing his dead wife and whatnot, now he's a crazy dick. Personal involvement with wife beating thing, threatening your town folks with a heater while screaming at them, the whole thing is just absurd if your goal is to really change things. Just acts of a stupid violent man.   Guess Michonne felt same way. :)   I suppose the writers will find a way to vindicate him, but he's officially on the outs with me. ;)   - OS

I got a dremel and a bench vice, you got a steady hand right? :D

I'm only 36 so I'm not ready to hit the showers just yet...

Listen to your instincts.  Go to the ER if you're concerned *AT ALL* about it being heart related.  Heart conditions are one of those things you just can't afford to play around with.

At one time mine was named John Galt. My Dad was at my house and was looking at the available networks on his phone and asked, "who is John Galt" not knowing the significance of the question. My wife and I busted out laughing.

O yeah, and then there's Bud Light.

Well when a man beats his wife all bets are off, there's not much lower than a wife beater IMHO!

I have a friend that does maintenance on one of the local indoor ranges and that gets his free range time and a little pocket change. He came for coffee one day and was complaining about a new class instructor that had been allow to begin holding Tactical Defense classes at the range and each day after the guy held a class my buddy would go in the next day and the guy had not done any cleanup up after the class and the range floor had trash everywhere and still had all the target dummies and two large plywood boards left in the middle of the range floor.   My Buddy went up and got the owner of the range which is connected to a gun shop and showed him how the guy left the range. The owner said he would talk to the guy. Well the Tact Teacher did clear his stuff and store it along one wall after the first couple classes but didn't sweep anything. You know what they say about pay backs.........lol.   The guy had showed up the other day with 5 new target dummies he used in his classes and was bragging to my buddy about how much they cost. He made the mistake of asking my buddy if he would like to take a few shots at them. My buddy declined. The guy would not take no for an answer and said go ahead and shoot a few rounds. Finally my buddy said ok and pulled out his Tokarov and shot the heads off three of the dummies at about 35 yards.   The guy got really pissed because he destroyed 3 new pieces of Tactical Training Class equipment. As my buddy was walking away he turned and told the guy to make sure he cleaned up his mess. The guy went up to the owner of the Gun shop and told the owner what happened. The owner took my buddy's side and said you offer him to shoot them so I don't see the issue. The tactical guy packed up and found another range to hold classes. My buddy is now a happy camper once again.......... :rofl: :up:

  Joe WITH Joe... even better.

  And you know when you are really hooked when you spend Monday and Tuesday arguing with people on the internet who obviously don't "watch" the show and get stuff wrong.

Yes.     Yes.       -  Nobody has been hammered for "constructive possession" in 23 years unless they were clearly in violation -  A pistol tube does not make you immune, same conditions apply regarding all your parts -  No intent is required whatsoever to be in violation - you have either "made" an NFA firearm or you have not, and you don't have to have actually constructed it to have "made" it.   All, that said, note that my "kit" you referenced in post 12 was back during the panic when AR stuff was hard to get and pricey when you could. Everything AR is cheaper now than it has ever been, so it's not much of an outlay to use a dedicated lower/tube, and I have to admit a "pistol" tube has a certain aesthetic appeal, sort of looks more "complete" or something. And even with the flurry of bizarre ATF opinions regarding various of them on various platforms, folks are still using braces (including me), and none of them will fit on a carbine tube.     - OS

These inexpensive knives have another good purpose.  After seeing the prices on them she doesn't realize how much I've spent on the ones in the safe.  She sees no difference in a Lightening and a Microtech. :rofl:

Jager. Enough said

I never drink more than a sixer and always keep the ashtray on the opposite side of the bench from my powder.

It sure does cum a lot... Had to..

Just... wow...

So as my wife was driving me around the other day I noticed my iPhone was polling people's routers. It would tell me the router name and ask to connect. I never do even though most are not secured. That got me thinking that if I am getting their information what information are they getting from me. So when I got home I checked my router and my name was on my router so I assume my it will be on other people's routers. Also, there were several questionable devices in the connection list but they did not connect but showed up in the list. That got me to thinking that I had had better change my name on my phone so when it tries to connect to someone else's router it will not have my name. And while I was at it I changed my router name as well. But I decided to have some with it. So my new name for my phone is "DEA Surveilance Van #8" so as I drive by routers it will show up in their device list. After changing it I checked my router and that is what it says. Along with that I changed my router's name to "DEA Camera #5". I am going to turn the range up so it will show up on people's phones as they drive by. Should make things interesting for the druggies living a few houses away and making daily runs.

  So do I.  Hell, I took my GSG-522 to the range today just to have some fun in between serious pistol shooting.  But while multiple calibers is half the fun, I'd like it to not be half my wallet.     I'm in the same boat.  I really think I can "do more with less" if I go to 9mm.  Meaning I can get more rounds for practice, and negate the loss in size.  Plus, 9mm is a much more universal round, and has a lot more options for future purchases.

The only pistol calibers I own now are 9mm. I used to be one of the .40 bandwagon guys but I fell off. I too am going this way to consolidate.

If it was me i would load up all the metal ant sell it for scrap burn what would burn then see what was left

I would see if it cycles with subsonic ammunition without a silencer before drilling the port. If it cycles then the port does not need to be drilled but you will still need an adjustable gas block to limit the gas when running a silencer.

When I saw Pete and the front window....I laughed. Out loud.

Hope the cardiologist gives you good results. Anything less than a full checkup isn't enough.  At 65 he's one of the yearly appointments I won't miss.

I don't really think before he offered to let my buddy shoot them that my buddy was packing a weapon capable of destroying concrete block walls and engine blocks................ :rofl: :rofl:

Wish you the best on figuring it out. Been dealing with my own for 2years now & 36 as well. Worst part about it is worrying, cardiologist said none of my irregular beats or SVT is anything to stress over, but when your ticker acts up, there's no way you can not worry about it.

I'd have to add Phil Keaggy. Acoustically, there aren't many better. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3iSiij98VY   and you can't get much more technically perfect playing than Eric Johnson. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15eu7ar5EKM

Thanks for the update

I get atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat) from time to time. Sometimes caused by stress, chocolate, caffeine, booze...it can make you light headed, and if really bad I suppose you could pass out. What you described sort of feels like that could be it, but only a doctor can tell for sure. Worst thing is they will probably order a treadmill test -hate those. If that is your problem they may try diet, exercise or even meds for when it gets out of rhythm. Just said a prayer for you...let us know what the doc says. Best wishes, B

The Four Horseman sounds like the old story of just because you can do something doesn't mean you should.

What boggles my mind is how some people can be so unapologetically stupid. What did this idiot think was going to happen when he offered to let your buddy shoot his expensive targets?   Sounds to me like his issue is with the target manufacturer.

Let's hear it for karma

I had a borrowed midsized PX4 for a month or so.  Shot it a lot.  If that rotating barrel action causes the easy shooting them I am convinced.  One of my retired LEO friends described it as "you almost forget you are shooting."  The subcompact has the standard style action and I have heard it is a harsh shooter compared to its larger rotating litter mates.  I almost bought it but didn't need another chubby handgun. 

The more I look at the TR4 online, the more anxious I become to get one in my hand.

I guess I could but that recurve on that small of a blade would be tricky.

Once I discovered the $12 Glock Sport Combat holster I rarely resorted to anything else.

  That is a huge question I have. How is it legal to change a record that is supposed to record what they did????

I absolutely love this spindrift knife, carried it for a few days and it is the perfect size. It has the sharpest edge of any Fixed blade knives I have ever owned, I am going on a Bike ride tomorrow and I think I will carry it with me

As I posted on the TGO Facebook page, I suspect this is the price he paid for failing Obama in the proposed M855 ammo ban.

  Agreed. If the G43 is too big for pocket carry (which I believe it is because the G42 is pushing it), what's the point? That has been my issue with the G26/27 all along.  People buy them and then, most of the time, end up carrying them on a belt.  They may as well have bought a G19/23 if that was going to be the end result. If you're going to "belt carry," pretty much anywhere you can conceal a G26/27, you can conceal a G19/23.

Interesting. Would make for a very good story. The Walking Dead.....starring......all the participants of this thread.

Mine's weighed down by the souls of dead Nazis.

No interruptions and attention to detail.

I use to have vehicles drive into my drive way late at night and Kasey would bark. Sometimes they would remain a minute or two and sometimes they would leave right away. I had a buddy install motion lights that could light up a little league ball field and when they come on they will temporarily blind a person facing them. That ended any of the cars coming in drive area and spending any time at all. Now soon as those lights pop on they are gone. During the day with living where I do in a triplex with my living area in the rear a car cannot get back to my place without passing by the neighbors and the people living up front so in 99.9% of the time a car or truck coming in my drive has a few pairs of eyes on it. Also unless you know my cottage is back here it cannot be seen from the street.

You need to move. Everything you have posted in the last six months would make me nervous as hell.

I used to look everywhere for screws, bolts, pins, etc...and I always ended up at Ace and left with exactly what I needed. Now I go to Ace FIRST. In the rare event that they don't have it, I GO HOME. Because if they don't have it I know nobody has it.  'Ol John Madden was right....Ace really IS the place!!

A good start.
