  6. I have a mix of fescue, weeds, and Bermuda. I've tried all the over-the-counter stuff, and none of it is a long term solution. It's just a neverending amount of time and money with little reward. If your neighbor's have weeds, you're gonna have weeds, and there's nothing you can do about it. If you want it to look like a golf course, hire one of the Green Lawn type companies to do the chemicals. It'll be cheaper in the long run. I gave up. It's green, I mow it, and that's good enough. Weeding the flowerbeds and tending the garden is more than enough work.

  8. Build an ark the Lord said to Noah, "In six months I'm going to make it rain until the earth is covered with water and all the evil is destroyed. I want you to build an ark and save two of each animal species. Here are the blue prints for the ark." ... six months passed ... The skys began to cloud and rain began to fall. Noah sat in his front yard weeping. "Why haven't you built the ark?", asked the Lord. "Oh forgive me", said Noah, "I tried but so many things have happened. The blue prints you gave me didn't meet the city's code and I had to change them. Then the city said I was violating the zoning ordnance by building the ark in my front yard so I had to get a variance. The Forest Service required tree cutting permits, and I was sued by an animal rights group when I tried to gather up the animals. The EPA required an environmental impact statement concerning the flood. The Army Corps of Engineers wanted a map of the proposed flood plain. The IRS seized all my assets, claiming I was trying to avoid paying taxes by fleeing the country, and the Equal Opportunity Commision said I wasn't hiring enough Croations. So, I'm sorry Lord but I can't finish the ark for at least five years!" Suddenly the rain stopped, the skys cleared and the sun began to shine. Noah looked up and said, "Lord does this mean you are not going to devastate the earth?" "Right", said the Lord,"the government already has."

  18. A right handed ankle holster will be for the inside of your left leg. Its a bit different at first but i have never banged my ankle gun on anything. You will be constantly looking at your ankle for about a week while wearing it though. But keep in mind no one looks at your ankles so a small bulge is not noticeable to anyone. I would like to persuade you to consider a different back up gun though. Considering your primary gun is a glock 17 you should carry a bug in a glock 26. Same exact operation and will take the spare glock 17 mags. This is my exact setup. G17 carried IWB at 4/5 o clock and a g26 in a gaclo ankle glove. My ankle gun is a backup to me and a way i can arm someone else(family,friends,stranger) if i have the need in a active shooter situation.

  19. Crab grass ditto: I have Bermuda in my yard as that is what builder put down before we purchased this house. I am slowly converting to zoysia with pieces and plugs as it will choke most weeds and Bermuda out. While this is happening the absolute best product to get rid of crab grass is a product by the name of Image for Crab Grass. It a granular product in 3 individual packages in a box for about $12. Each pack mixes with 1 gallon of water. I also add weed b gone, using the suggested amount. I can only find "Image for Crab grass" at Home Depot. The weed b gone is available everywhere. Image also has a product call Image for Nut Grass that is in a ready to spray by connecting a water hose. It the only product I've seen that will kill nut grass without harming the good grass. http://www.homedepot.com/p/IMAGE-Crabgrass-Killer-3-Pack-100099416/202277681

  20. As an alternative, I have a large firearm policy through Collectibles Insurance Company. They cover my firearms, all accessories including all my reloading equipment and the safes. All that they require is proof after the fact and they recommended pictures and serial numbers. Which I keep on 2 encrypted thumb drives (1 is backup in my parents safe). The policy autogrows yearly and is actual replacement cost. Might be worth looking into. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk

  24. It's crabgrass. I had a terrible problem with it a couple of years ago. I was told each year it grows from last years seeds. Last year, I mowed every 3 days, 4 at the most. The crab grass came up, but I never let it start the stem that the seeds grow on. This is what the chemicals are suppose to do that you buy for crabgrass. It coats the seed and stops germination they say. This year, I had very little crabgrass at all and didn't use the chems, just cut before the seeds could grow. It works, but you gotta stay on it with the mowing. The bad thing is, if your neighbor has crabgrass you will have crabgrass from the seeds blowing into your yard if they don't keep theirs cut like you do.

  25. I'm currently puppysitting for my oldest son while he's in the process of moving. She's a 6 month old dobie mix rescue. Definitely got the doberman body and common black/tan markings. But the head shape and ears are wrong. What the rest of her is, we ain't got a clue. Although I think there may be a bit of some kind of a retriever in her as she just loves water. She likes to play in the rain and if there's a puddle anywhere around, she'll head straight for it. Also, fetch is her favorite game. But I gotta tell ya, she's wearing this old man out. At this age she's all run, jump, teeth, claws and way too much energy. She craves constant attention and is always under foot. Gotta watch her like a hawk because she's in that puppy "chew on everything" stage. Especially Me! . I know she's just playing and doesn't mean any harm, but my hands and arms look like I've been rasslin' a chainsaw. I love her, but just like a kid, she a steady source of both satisfaction and aggravation.

  26. I have always dreamed of designing and building one of the largest ranges ever built and keeping the price low enough that most families could afford to shoot on a regular basis. I would have never guessed there was a range 3.5 miles long; very impressive!

  27. For those that are not aware of the size and history of the Grand American here are some more information and pictures for you. I will start with an aerial view to to show the length that shotgunshooter drove while taking the rotated 90 degree video. Debuting in 1900 at the Interstate Park in Queens, New York, the Grand American was originally a four-day tournament contested in June. For the next 20 plus years the Grand American was staged in cities such as Chicago, St. Louis and Columbus until it made its home in Vandalia, Ohio from 1923 until 2005. In 2006, the Grand American moved to its new home at the World Shooting and Recreational Complex in Sparta, IL. This state of the art facility features 120 trap fields extending for 3.5 miles making it the worlds largest trap line. To find out more about the WSRC please visit their website. Since its inception, the Grand American has grown from a mere 20 competitors in 1900 to more than 5,800 participants in 2006. Over the years, the likes of Annie Oakley, Roy Rogers and John Philip Sousa have participated in the Grand American. In its current format, the Grand American consists of 24 events spanning over an 11 day period. The first 5 days of the tournament are referred to as "Preliminary Days" in which competitors may fine-tune their skills prior to competing in the championship events of "Grand Week." Not only is the Grand American the largest shooting tournament in the world, but it also offers competitors the opportunity to explore the most advanced products and services in the shooting industry. The WSRC is a spectacular site in itself. With more than 1,000 camping sites, 100+ exhibitors, and thousands of competitors, the Grand is more than a championship. It's a celebration of the sport. The hub for all this activity is located in the Events Center. This location provides competitors with a sophisticated entry system, which incorporates computerized classification, handicapping, entry processing/cashiering and score reporting. A closed-circuit television network conveys event leaders, event results, squads on deck and messages to better inform individuals during their stay on the grounds. Camp sites offering hook-ups and onsite shower facilities offer the thrill of camping on-site during the 11 day event. Many competitors end the day by joining friends at various campsites to share the day's shooting stories or to enjoy a cookout. More than 100 exhibitors are on-site to provide products and services ranging from gun sales and services, to shooting accessories and apparel. Conveniently located near the trap line, these exhibitors offer a shopping-mall type atmosphere to shop for that special item.

  29. A friend of my Fathers was building a replica Gatling gun that shot .22. Last I saw it, about 15 years ago, it was almost done. Looked a lot like Buds but only about 2 feet tall with 18" wheels. I should check to see if he is still alive and if he ever got it finished. Would be fun to shoot.

  35. Galco ankle holster, G-26 and get the calf strap for the galco. It took me 3-4 days to get over feeling like I had an anchor strapped to my ankle. I've carried a G-33 every day at work for over 5 years. With my sleek, svelte, fighting machine body I can't wear IWB unless I am untucked and I'm just not an untucked at work kind of guy. Don't bother with the spare mag ankle thingy unless you are going to sew a retaining strap to close over the top of the mag for retention. Rumor has it the first day you wear it and go visit a customer the mag will slip out and slide across the floor and your customer will almost die from laughing so hard at the look of horror on your face. Now I notice when I don't have it more than when I do... You're welcome... Mark

  36. I think most ankle carry is inside the left ankle. I would suggest a G43 or G26 as a backup instead, but if the Charter is what you want, go for it.

  38. Welcome back to the dark side. We have cheap ammo, mags, and a huge surplus market. Congrats on the purchase. Imports are looking like they are going to get more expensive and less available do to all the crap going on these days. Let me know how the under folder works out for you.

  41. Magpul's cajones were only as big as the tax breaks and offset funding they were not so subtly shopping for from other states. While the financial motive of such a move it is axiomatic, they didn't leave Colorado as an exclusive act of conscience as their PR narrative pushed. As to Smith & Wesson...it would take a lot to make them move. They've been in Springfield, MA for a long time, and it's been a good area for them. Take a look at the pictures in this article, and you'll see that it's just not a pack up and move kind of thing. Throw in the potential loss of institutional knowledge depending on how many workers wouldn't go with them if they left, and it's not worth the hassle unless it becomes an imperative. Mass won't push them to that point.

  42. I realize relocating is an expensive proposition but so is kissing the butts of politicians that think gun manufacturers are scum but willing to take their tax money. Every maker in that state is hopefully looking at options to get out of that crazy place. States like Tennessee would bend over backwards with tax breaks and incentives to encourage the move.

  46. TN_Nash_CC, this is for pocket carry, right? If so, the final limiting factor is thickness of the gun in its pocket holster, in my opinion. I'd recommend you look into making your own pocket holster out of gallon milk jug plastic and gaffer's tape (non-gluey duct tape that leaves no residue). I posted how to do this in a previous thread along with pics. I'll see if I can find it. EDITED: Here you go... I make my own pocket holsters using a one gallon water jug and gaffers tape. Here is a link to the process. http://www.thektog.org/forum/f87/milk-jug-pocket-holsters-256713/ The advantages of this for a pocket holster are... 1. They are super thin. If you want to hide something in your front pocket, the holster needs to be as thin as possible. 2. You can contour the holster to fit against your leg and to fit how you want it to fit in your pocket. I have some holsters that are longer so the gun presents higher in a really deep pocket. That is, the bottom inch or two is just pocket filler to raise the tiny gun higher in the pocket. 3. You can shape the "hook" so it becomes almost impossible for the holster to come out when you draw. I see this as a huge plus. I have to unholster the gun to remove the holster, but it can be pocketed with the weapon with no problem. 4. It's cheap... a roll of gaffers tape is $12 and the water jug is free or only a dollar if you don't have one available. You can use duct tape, but it looks awful, as you can see in the pictures in the above link. Gaffers tape doesn't leave a visible tape residue. Here's a pic from the above link showing a tiny KelTec P3-AT in a DeSantis and a Glock 26 in a milk jug holster. They are almost the same width! The P3-AT in the DeSantis holster is 1 3/16" wide... actually it's even wider until the sides are compressed in your pocket. The gun in the milk jug holster on the right is 1 5/16" wide, a barely noticeable difference in the pocket, but it's a Glock 26!
