Saw this on FB today. I rather liked it. Hope you do as well. "Maid Wants a Raise" Madam: Give me three reasons why I need to increase your salary. Maid: I can cook better than you. Madam: Who told you that? Maid: Your Husband told me. Madam: Ok, 2nd reason? Maid: I can iron better than you. Madam: Who told you that? Maid: Your husband told me. Madam: Ok, 3rd reason? Maid: I am also better in bed than you. This time the Madam was furious and ready to break her hand. Madam: Did my husband tell you that? Maid: No, the driver told me. I'm better in bed than you. Madam: Please lower your voice, I will increase your salary.

Well that escalated quickly!

I just went and double checked the ammo bunker,  no shortages here  ;)

This one found a new home in Texas. It is made from 5/32" thick 1095 carbon steel heat treated professionally to a RC of 59-61. It had nice file work on the spine with thumb jimping and is double acid etched with Texas Mesquite scales and mosaic pin and SS lanyard hole. OAL is 12 3/4" with a blade length of 8".

I'd rather they fight to get a bill passed for proper classes and permits for first amendment rights too... I don't like a lot of what people have to say, and think some don't know much about their religions and all kinds of things that should be proven before they are allowed their rights.  It doesn't matter if its a right, we should limit it just to be on the safe side.

  I think sometimes we long for "the good old days" when the press was "responsible".   I'm just not sure that there was ever a time when that was true. News is a product like potato chips.

  I figgered it was mostly to keep people from shooting at black painters and sasquashes and whatnot. ;)   - OS

I am not sure exactly what was wrong here?   They cut the meat in the parking lot and most likely used the walk in box to store it for a bit.   Heck everyone knows cats are the issue with Chinese food, not deer.

I am sure a lot of you have heard about the search for the 2 year old that has been on since last Thursday in West Tn. 3 requirements announced for volunteer searchers. 1. Must be 18 years old. 2. Must have photo ID. 3. Must not be armed. My question is why would a legally armed volunteer be turned away? Would this affect whether or not you would volunteer to search? Keep little Noah and the family in your prayers. Not trying to be insensitive during a trying and emotional time for a family but it just doesn't make since to have this requirement.

Absolutely Brilliant !!!       COSTELLO:  I want to talk about the unemployment rate in America  .   ABBOTT: Good Subject.  Terrible Times.  It’s 5.6%.   COSTELLO:  That many people are out of work?   ABBOTT: No, that’s 23%.     COSTELLO: You just said 5.6%.   ABBOTT:  5.6% Unemployed.   COSTELLO:  Right 5.6% out of work.    ABBOTT: No, that’s 23%.   COSTELLO: Okay, so it’s  23% unemployed.   ABBOTT: No, that’s 5.6%.    COSTELLO:  WAIT A MINUTE. Is it 5.6% or 23%?    ABBOTT: 5.6% are unemployed.  23% are out of work.    COSTELLO: If you are out of work you are unemployed.    ABBOTT:  No, Obama said you can’t count the “Out of Work” as the unemployed.  You have to look for work to be unemployed.   COSTELLO: BUT THEY ARE OUT OF WORK!!!    ABBOTT: No, you miss his point.   COSTELLO:  What point?   ABBOTT:  Someone who doesn’t look for work can’t be counted with those who look for work. It wouldn’t be fair.    COSTELLO: To whom?   ABBOTT: The unemployed.     COSTELLO: But ALL of them are out of work.     ABBOTT: No, the unemployed are actively looking for work. Those who are out of work gave up looking and if you give up, you are no longer in the ranks of the unemployed.    COSTELLO: So if you’re off the unemployment roles that would count as less unemployment?   ABBOTT: Unemployment would go down. Absolutely!   COSTELLO: The unemployment just goes down because you don’t look for work?   ABBOTT: Absolutely it goes  down. That’s how it gets to 5.6%. Otherwise it would be 23%.   COSTELLO: Wait, I got a question for you. That means there are two ways to bring down the unemployment number?     ABBOTT: Two ways is correct.   COSTELLO: Unemployment can go down if someone gets a job?   ABBOTT: Correct.   COSTELLO: And unemployment can also go down if you stop looking for a job?   ABBOTT: Bingo.     COSTELLO: So there are two ways to bring unemployment down, and the easier of the two is to have people stop looking for work.   ABBOTT: Now you’re thinking like a Democrat.    COSTELLO:  I don’t even know what the hell I just said!     ABBOTT: Now you’re thinking like Hilary  

I appreciate the bill, not because I think that we need to register journalists but because I think that people who oppose the 2nd amendment need to realize how idiotic they sound and the only way that is going to happen is if we threaten to take away something that they like.

"Republicans" are responsible for Trump just as "Democrats" are for Clinton and Sanders. Maybe they should stop lining their pockets, stop pissing and moaning, and do their jobs as servants of the American People. As to "stupid of the day", I think you missed quite a few other contenders.

No more than demonizing the 2nd Amendment and those that appreciate it. 

Not at all...just like the point he is making... Sent from my SCH-i705 using Tapatalk

Off topic but on topic. Something doesn't seem right about this little boy going missing. What elderly grandmother takes a two and a four year old to the woods in this weather to play? How do you just lose a four year old? It's pretty tough. The police don't suspect foul play. I do. Sent from the Fortress of Solitude.

Look back through this thread, several of us with them have already posted.

I get my feelings hurt every time someone calls me "gun nut" or "inbred redneck" I feel like I need a safe space where I can just be myself. I really think the government should give guns ammo and range time to people like me.

No, there's no shortage. I personally only buy in bulk. Many 7.62x39 shooters prefer Russian Golden Tiger ammo for overall accuracy and sealed primers for long term storage. Golden Tiger is usually only available at SGAMMO.com.   A thread from the AK Files suggests Walmart has started stocking TULA in 40 round boxes instead of 20.

Actually, it's bowel. Lol

So much fail, it's hard to know where to start. Imagine if a test were required before one could exercise their right as a citizen to vote or as a human being to peacefully assemble. Wait, that's been tried before (you get the point). It's doesn't matter what you "feel" about it or who you "trust". You don't get to decide for anyone else... it's called freedom and it can be scary at times. Living in a zoo is much safer but the lions don't look too happy in the cages. Maybe you would like it? No one else can protect you, you might even fail yourself but at least you can try. Anyone who promises to protect you is either a fool or thinks you are. The 1st Amendment protects your right to criticize the government, not to say stupid things in public and go unchallenged. Just because it's your opinion doesn't mean it's not ignorant. Luckily, ignorance is a choice. You get to decide whether you stay that way or not. Take a civics class and get back to me.

Because are evil. Let's be honest, anti-gun crap has nothing to do with any kind of logic, only emotion.

I have a friend that is a K-9 officer up in Robertson County and he had a Doberman for his K-9. About 5 or 6 years ago his partner gave his life protecting my friend from a pistol wheeling drug dealer and jumped in front of him to take the bullets. My friend did kill the bad guy but he lost Jake. He was heart broken because they had been partners for 8 years. I went to see him about a month later and he was getting ready to move off the K-9 division over his grief. At the time I happen to have a friend that was having to give up his Dobie because he was moving into an apartment from a house in a divorce. I asked him if I could have Sadie and he said yes. Sadie was about 10 months old and ready for training to begin.   When I went to visit my friend I had Sadie in my sons Van and we talked for a few minutes and I asked him to help me with something in the van and we walked out and I opened the back doors. She looked at him and he looked at her and then he turned to look at me. I said her name is Sadie and she needs a home. He looked back at her and I saw his eyes swell up and he called to her and she jumped into him arms.   He didn't quit the K-9 force but he didn't use Sadie either. He did train her but he trained her for guard duty at his home in the country to protect his wife and children while he was working. His property if completely cyclone fenced with gates and on the front gate a sign reads "K-9 officer on duty. Enter at your own risk". Anyone that wants to visit him or family calls first. I have seen her about 3 times since I gave her to him. She turned out to be one awesome Doby for sure............ :cheers:

SC State Rep. Mike Pitts wins the "Stupid of the Day" award for 20 January 2016.  Hard to take anyone who would resort to a sophomoric stunt like that seriously.

      I pick up boxes as I stumble across them, just like .223. It's easier for me to buy a few boxes at a time instead of a case. The wife does not put up as much of a fuss then. Got two boxes of 223 today and a pmag :) 

It is not hard to do, I've done several.  You don't need any special tools and there are several you tube videos that give you a step by step how to.  If you can take down a MK I, II or III pistol and get the mainspring assembly back in without full use of every available curse word you can do this.  Once you've mastered mainspring removal and reinstall it's really fun to work on these pistols.  Having said all that I'm not from the Murfreesboro area.  I would be happy to help you do it but I'm about an hour plus from your area. 

I say that not to be an ass, but more to save myself from typing my post over. My fault if it came off as such

If it wasn't NFA, everyone with a threaded barrel would own one...and they would be MUCH cheaper because they would be made by every firearms manufacturer and sold with the weapons. Good Lord, please let this pass.

  It's hard to take that one seriously.

Very good. I have taken some new shooters as well. I notice at the range more and more girls out there are coming with husbands and boyfriends.

Bob was sitting on the plane waiting to fly to Chicago , when a guy took the seat beside him. The guy was an emotional wreck, pale, hands shaking in fear.     "What's the matter, afraid of flying?" Bob asked.     "No, it's not that. I've  been transferred to Chicago . The people are crazy there, right? Lots of shootings, gangs, race riots, drugs, poor schools, and the highest crime rate in the nation."     Bob replied, "I've lived in Chicago all my life. It's not as bad as the media says. Find a nice home, go to work, mind your own business, and enroll your kids in a nice private school. I've worked there for 14 years and never had the slightest trouble."     The guy relaxed and stopped shaking and said, "Oh, thank you. I've been worried to death, but if you've lived and worked there all those years and say it's OK, I'll take your word for it. What do you do for a living?"         "I'm a tail gunner on a Budweiser truck."  

Kel-Tec RFB-C. Same as standard, except missing the vertical pistol grip, which makes it legal for Cali. Looks kinda cool to me. S&W SW22 Victory. Looks kind of Ruger Mark3 ish. Already has Volquartsen barrels out, which are easily replaceable. Sig Legion P220 was announced. Of course the Kimber K6s, which already has its own thread. Springfield EMP 4" Commader sized gun Colt brought out a few "new" 1911s. They look nice but not good enough to put them in the black I'm afraid. Glock 17 and 19 MOS models Browning A5 Sweet 16 is back Sig P210 Rock Island 1911 in .22mag with a 14rd capacity. Weather by Mark V in 6.5-300Weatherby. Over 3500fps Springfield Operator Lipseys Exclusive in 10mm Oh, and 5.11 Tactical Yoga pants lol That's what I've seen so far that caught my eye.

And the Chupacabras. Don't forget about them

awww geez guys...... thanks...   Sorry I missed you Doc,  I work nights.  Give me a heads up next time, I'll make sure you and your son get our best prices.   As for Weller Reserve, 23 beans.

Well, mines built on a QC10 lower and sports a pinned 14.5" barrel for the time being. Form 1 will be sent off here pretty soon I think. Runs great, although I admit I had a problem with the BHO in the beginning. It's my favorite firearm to shoot by far right now. I also have a Hipoint 9mm carbine that's great for shooting cheap steel case and not cleaning :) Pretty crappy picture

I've always liked the idea of a Kel-Tec that takes Glock 9mm Mags. I have no idea if they are worth what they go for. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Don't forget this, I'll need muchoo

  There are no major problems. This is all about...   A. Politicians trying to convince idiots that they are able to protect them B. Revenue.   Funny thing... the politicians make us jump as high as the rest. 

Here's some states that have carry without a permit. Idaho, Montana, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Vermont, Wyoming, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Oklahoma.   If there were a problem with that in any of those states I guarantee you the main stream media would be all over it saying, see, we told you so. Obviously there's been no problems with it.

Because the life of some poor little kid isn't as important as making some sort of PC "statement" I suppose.  :mad:

Mine failed twice just sitting in the safe mounted. Lost reticule. Waiting on a check.

we speak American here.  If you wanna speak jibberish go back to where you came from.

You can load even 9mm (cheapest of handgun ammo) cheaper than factory, the issue is, how far down the rabbit hole are you willing to go to save a few bucks? To do it requires an investment on the front end, that for many if not most people, are better spent on just buying ammo outright. A quality mold will set you back a hundred bucks easy. You can do it with a $25 Lee sure, but they suck in the long run as anyone with experience will tell you. A lube sizer will set you back another couple of hundred. Also, you have to have sources for freebies and everyone doesn't have at luxury. I don't pay for lead because of where I work and I don't pay for 9mm brass most of the time either. I also have a massive amount of free time at work to do much of my casting. In the end, I can load 9mm for around 60-75 bucks per thousand depending on what I want to produce. It's extremely labor intensive and MOST people have more important things to devote their time to. So, in the end, you have to evaluate your specific situation and resourcefulness. For MOST people, buying it is the most efficient way. Even if you manage to save a few bucks, is it worth those few bucks to tie up your time in it? If you don't have any family obligations and shoot several thousand rounds a year, then yeah. If you shoot a few boxes a moth at the range, hell no, go buy it and enjoy your free time doing something else.

I think I am going back to being parsimonius. :)

What we've got here is a circular firing squad, along with circular reasoning, along with a dose of runnin off into a bunch of pasture fields that dont matter...   The fact is that the government (...local, state, and federal...) has seen fit to meddle in "property rights" for those engaged in public commerce... Whether anybody likes it or not, for better or worse, no one has changed that as yet...   If you are the proprietor of a business that serves public customers, the gubmt tells you lots of things and makes em stick with the force of law...   The gubmt tells you to have certain food standards (...if you are a resturant..), to have a certain size parking lot, to have restrooms meeting certain standards, defines insurance requirements, personnel requirements, fire code requirements; the list is endless... Friends, that is, in fact, gubmt meddlin and injecting requirements into your "public business"... The fact is that the gubmt in in the "business of regulating business"...   If the gubmt can demand that you be liable for some poor hapless soul (...your customer...) stepping on a wet noodle and breaking his butt and make it stick (...and they can... that's why you have insurance; which is mandated by gubmt...); what is the difference in it tellin you that you are responsible for the safety of your patrons should they be hurt as the result of your demand to take responsibility to disarm them and make them vulnerable to mayhem...?  We can quibble about whether gubmt should be meddlin in this or not; but the fact remains... They are and have been for a long time...    I will grant that you can either be a "king in your castle" or a "tyrant"  (...my words and definition..."do what i say or else...) in your own home... Your home aint a public place... As others have pointed out; if you engage in a public business, the rules change... You may not like that; but that's how it works now; no matter the argument about "property rights" trumping everything else...   I say, if you want the "meddlin in business thing" to change, start workin on your elected reps and get to changin 'em... Good luck.... I predict that you'll need it...   leroy

I guess I'd agree with the consensus here, and it actually appears to be unanimous, so far. We are Biblically instructed that family comes first. And the rest becomes a question of individual choice. Do we save, or attempt to save, someone from a threat. I honestly don't know the correct answer for this question. In my younger days, when I thought I was the badass hero who'd ride in and save us all; I would have had an easy answer. But now, as I'm older, and much slower, with far less mobility, and maybe a bit wiser; that answer isn't quite so clear. I'd like to believe that after ushering loved ones to safety, that I would do something to help others. But I really can't say that I would or would not. Lord willing, I'll never have to make that choice. But in the days to come, I fear that might just be a question many of us will have to ask and answer for ourselves. And no, I'm not a dyed-in-the-wool pessimist. I just think that this world is falling apart around us, and I hope I don't live long enough to have to make that kind of choice on another's life.
