I haven't added a Smith and Wesson to my collection for quite some time, but recently, I ran across three different ones I just couldn't pass up. top: model 38 no dash middle: pre 34 kit gun bottom: 14-3 (came with box and papers)

1952 Studebaker 496/4L80E/9" 3:89

That's exactly what I was thinking. All that went through my mind reading it was this video (i'm sure we've all seen it)

You shot a 50 bmg at steel at 100 yards? I think I know how your obituary will read.

Thanks to rugerla1 problem fixed. I forget to tighten the 2 allen screws inside the trigger housing. Going to the range in a hour or so....

Did you just come here to smack people around?

It took me three days to get back to fulfill my committment to upload a photo or two, but here you go . . . . . My Ruger stable, from front to back . . . P94 - .40 S&W P85-II - 9mm P91 - .40 S&W P90 - .45 ACP

I stopped by a friends pawn shop today to browse & spotted something that I apparently couldn't live without for another day. A stainless Ruger P89 in 9mm in really nice condition. I've never owned or even had the chance to shoot one, but most of what I hear from owners is positive. It certainly has a hefty feel & I like the grips. I regret selling my P95DC a few years back without ever shooting it. I'll make sure this one gets some range time.

terrifying isn't it?

My new upper came in. . . now just waiting on some paperwork to finish up the rest of my two stamp tramps. S3v3n by Erik, on Flickr

Just for pedantic accuracy, it's $10 per 4473, not per firearm. - OS

I have a 29 that is a bit nicer than that one, or else I'd still have it. I really like the big ole N frames.

Here's your sign or hold my beer watch this! I don't think there's much to worry about shooting FMJ at 1/4-3/8" plate at 100yrds, I'd be more concerned shooting at 3/4"+ plate at 100-200yrds with FMJ, including API, I usually lean my plate back just in case...

Zoid is getting all my likes these days it seems. Nice showing as usual.

As soon as you tie any right to the US or any State constitution, you lose. Rights are not gifts of government, any government. Rights are the sole property (inasmuch as an intangible can be 'property') of the people as individuals and any form of government can only legitimately be ceded powers to act on behalf of those people to protect their rights. The government does not possess any rights that are not the people's first and revocable at any time.

The DA can very easily prove that the truck driver was not in fear for his life. If he had been in fear for his life he would have shot/shot at the bad guys and not into the air. As for him having a reasonable fear after they came back and shot at him, obviously - but the way the article is written it seems he fired shots into the air before the bad guys shot at his truck, not after. Finally, IANAL but I don't believe that state preemption applies because shooting into the air is not a 'self defense' shooting - shooting or shooting at the bad guys is self defense shooting. If the situation was such that the driver felt okay giving warning shots then he wasn't in that great of an amount of fear for his life. As DaveTN said, the real problem is that the driver couldn't (legally) shoot someone for burglarizing his truck.

Man, KnifeCenter is fast! I placed my order on Thursday around lunch time, got an email from them on Thursday evening that the order had shipped and my new D2 RAT 1 showed up in my mail box on Saturday. First impressions? I think that D2 really is noticeably different from Aus 8, even just right out of the box. My Aus 8 RAT 1 with the Ontario logo on the blade has barely - and I mean really, barely - been used, as in maybe peeling an apple or two and slicing some cheese, once. It has also been stropped - not sharpened, just stropped the factory edge. My Aus 8 RAT 1 with the Randall's Adventure Training logo on the blade has never been carried or used and hangs out in a drawer still in its original box and bubble wrap. It has been out of the box, opened and closed a few times and then put back in the box so the edge on it is still exactly as it came unused from the factory. Just feeling the edge with my finger tips the D2 is noticeably sharper, right from the factory. Now, is this because the D2 version is a 'special edition' and they pay more attention to sharpening them? I don't think so - the factory edges look identical so I really think that the D2 simply takes a better/sharper edge even at the factory. Not that the AUS 8 versions are 'dull' just that the edge on the D2 version feels as sharp right out of the box as many knives feel after I have spent time sharpening, honing and stropping them. The D2 RAT 1 is in my pocket, today, and probably will be for a few days, at least so I can see how it holds an edge with my usage over time. Here is a group pic of all three. Sorry the pic is a little blurry - I took several but my cell phone just didn't like the lighting, apparently. I am really liking the coyote brown scales:

30 states not 14 allow carrying of firearms without a permit in some way shape or form.

Well...most of the staff is great.

When I hit the lotto, I'll call you up and pick up that Porsche Carrera GT and the Mustang.

Have fun! I'd rather be going to the range too, instead I'm going to work lol

I'll just quote his mods:

So one guy is cranking rounds into the air, the other guy came back and starts cranking rounds into the truck. They are afraid to shoot each other, but are okay with making it pretty dangerous for anyone else in the area. Jeeze Of course the real problem here is that the driver couldn’t shoot someone burglarizing his truck. But he could have when he came back with the gun.

Royal Range! Royal Range!

Did you tighten the screws inside the unit before you put the locking screws in?

Already got my tickets.

Who knows, Trump just grabs a phrase here and there and lets them bounce around in his head until they're combined as the, you know, truth. - OS

Shoot for the moon. Maybe he'll do something to get impeached.

My neighbor and I was out browsing pawn shops back before Christmas and he wanted to go to Gander Mtn so we did. I saw they had 22LR SV on sale at a decent price so I bought a couple of boxes. The next week I was at Academy and they had the same thing for .25 less a box regular price. The moral is that Gander Mtn. sale prices are still higher than Academy's regular price.

Had to double check, thought I'd accidentally clicked on the Political Forum. Nope, I didn't.

Well I did not get asked, my bet is no one else on this site got asked or the POS would not rank other than stink worse than a dead skunk!!!

Fifth. He is the fifth... President Obama was named the 5th best president by Texas A&M. 1 Reagan & Lincoln tied for first 2 Seventeen presidents tied for second 3 Twenty-three presidents tied for third 4 Jimmy Carter came in fourth, and… 5 Obama was fifth

All that matter is were he ranks with me, and that's below a snakes belly.

Sold the CTS-V a few years ago.

Submitted May 13, received my stamp February 4. SilencerCo Omega. Man I am so happy right now!

As Sam Elliot's character said in "We Were Soldiers": "If the tome comes when I need one, I'm sure there"ll be plenty of 'em layin' around."
