We are in charge of us ... And there lie the problem.

I don't believe anything I hear on the news. The weather forecast is the most accurate segment, and we all know how wrong it usually is.

Vote what? The next bunch of crooks to screw us?. Pick your party.

The doctor said he hasn’t briefed Trump in almost two months, and has only seen him once in The White House recently. Trump is calling all the shots on the virus. It really doesn’t matter who is in charge now. It seems as a country we’ve decided to ride the wave. We have believers, nonbelievers and those in between. I feel like I’m watching a game show hoping no one else I know becomes ill.

The left wants your soul and the government to provide for you , the right for you to cling to archaic notions of morality and the government to provide for you. Both require absolute control over us serfs.

I have been wanting one of these S&W Model 29-10 44 Magnum's ever since I saw my first Dirty Harry movie. This gun has been at Guns and Ammo in Memphis for sometime. Every time I come into the store I take a look at it. Yesterday I bit the bullet and picked it up. Once I get it to the range I will give an update on how it shoots.

Every doctor on the boob tube has an opinion about the virus, and they will gladly state their opinion to whoever will listen or broadcast it. The channel you're watching does have an effect on what is said as well and who is on that particular channel.

I carry a Kershaw kryo which gets most of the abuse. I also carry a small Boker folder for more precision work. My Leatherman has a blade but I rarely use it. I've also got a CRKT Woods Chogan thats proven to be a quite handy little camp axe.

Like about a hundred times It is a shame how the .gov gets away with the crap it (.gov) pulls. The best hope we have it to vote.

A little research on Fauci at the start of this told me all I needed to know about him. He's made a fortune since the 80's being the weighing in "expert". He's essentially a politician with DR at the beginning of his name. Trump tossing Fauci out after he became the face of Covid would have only brought more scrutiny to Trump because as of now we can't blame Trump for Covid only for how he's poorly handled it all. That was inevitable anyway though because he hasn't done 1 single thing right since day 1 , right ? I'll make the same prediction I have several times through all this all the way back to the beginning both on here and to others when the subject arises. We, as a country, need to be prepared to endure this political theater all the way until the election. A 2nd shutdown IS coming and WILL happen. Regardless of whatever party you side with the importance of mail in ballots matters. It will be the new show when Covid and BLM run out of steam the days following the election. Whichever candidate gets in it will be an excuse for the other side to exclaim how that candidate got in and in Trumps case new fresh investigations to hammer on for the next four years. Unfortunately at the end of the day WE THE PEOPLE are the ones getting screwed in the end.....

Trump is an idiot just like everyone else who is supposed to be in charge of us.

While I don’t believe everything he has said, early on he said that not him or anybody else really knows much about this virus. Everybody is just learning as they go. As time goes on and they get more data, what they thought initially, may not be true anymore. I know he has straight up lied to us (concerning masks specifically), but some things they are just learning as time goes on. And when they say they really don’t know, I believe them on that.

I’m about to go to sleep but please everyone let’s keep this civil.

Sodbuster. Still have the one my father gave me 15 or so years ago. An awesome classic knife.

.44 Special/.44 Magnum is very versatile when rolling your own, just like .38 Special/.357 Magnum. Even Inspector Callahan used a “light special” load, lol. .44 Special is a pussycat out of a model 29. One could shoot that all day.

Well the left wants our firearms, both want our money. I would like us to keep our firearms.

This sounds like it has the potential for serious injury, so I thought I'd post this in case any of you have these jack stands. https://em.harborfreight.com/pub/sf/ResponseForm?_ri_=X0Gzc2X%3DAQpglLjHJlYQGozgB4qza8034KtzaIXJY7STAc2bnFzfbEWgPDzbipFzbgmfKsF6PazdyKzdVXMtX%3DAQpglLjHJlYQGozgB4qza8034KtzaIXJY7STAbTyzdljPFdzcg5mzftKrtkzeqzfMzezgzazaeCq&_ei_=EsP3GgKzsMuo4ewWzz-31KXmB7pC8cYGZp9opkRvT_QjGNJMpJfmZMF0vf0BBzFgjgqY&_di_=nvrm10o7qg1o7d2nfmf0om8mogcjee638njfkgk65n0co6icql60

Been a Zeppy fan for as long as I can remember...some of those memories may be a bit fuzzy... As a young Sailor in the 70's I drove many, many a mile across country listening to Zeppy and in particular Houses of the Holy on 8 track or cassette. I bought my first Zeppy album (vinyl) in '69. Been hooked since. Still great music.

That's why I got one. Not too big, not too small. I wanted a hammer rather than a spike, much more useful for me. Mine had handle issues when I got it, the head had peeled a bunch of the wood off during installation. There's no way whoever did it didn't notice. I emailed them a pic and they sent me another handle. Luckily I was able to fix the original handle so now I have a spare.

I'm old school when it comes to edc.

I discovered years ago that with weedeater string, like most things you get what you pay for ...

Well I am finally convinced that the doctor Trump has running the Sars-Covid-19 Pandemic does not have a clue what so ever that he is doing??? Since this all started he has said it is not an aerosol transmitted disease beyond the 6 foot distancing. Now all of a sudden he said it is very likely possible an aerosol disease carried in the air. I am now satisfied that clown has no clue what day of the week it is. He also said today that he and Trump have not spoke in two months!!! Why has Trump not fired this clown and put someone that might know something in his place? No wonder we are in the shape we are in and have 133,000 people dead and getting worse...….

Dollar for dollar, Mora makes the best knives available.

AU aka Jim to his friends is a great guy to deal with.

Yep. I respected the founders statement. It was one of the most honest apologies I've seen. I buy their tools for working on my truck and they work just fine.

Those are cool, a guy sent me a couple to sharpen I really like the auto version you will love it

I have never done business with AU (Jim) but I have done several transactions with many other members of TGO and to date have never had a bad experience with any members here at all. Great bunch of folks for sure here!!

I run a suppressor on my house gun.

That is one of the reasons I don't shop at Harbor Freight. 99% of what they sell is made in China and most all Chinese Steel has small air pockets in it making it very weak. I bought a driveway alarm there so I would know if anyone drove in my driveway at night. It worked twice and never beeped again so next time I got near Harbor freight I took it back. They replaced it and the one I got, new in the box never worked at all. Took it back and the guy said we don't sell those anymore and I said great cause I want my money back and not another piece of Chinese Junk!!

I haven't checked out US Law Shield but will. What I'm seeing with this shift in public insanity these days and no respect for the law and law enforcement, is innocent people being thrown under the bus to pacify the criminals, social warriors, protesters and rioters. I'm seeing more and more innocent people being charged for criminal assault just for even drawing their weapon to protect themselves. Just the fact of being arrested and/or charged sticks with you. Without financial ruin, I couldn't hire a competent lawyer in the unlikely event I had to un-holster to defend. You have to ask yourself, where are these confrontational people and groups, protesters and threatening people doing the assaults getting lawyers from and how are they paying for it?

Just got an odin on my rifle with remote switch and love it

Because there are multiple independent ballistics tests done that show there is little to no difference in ballistic effectiveness between common pistol calibers (9mm, .40S&W, .45ACP, .357mag) when using modern JHP ammunition. And 9mm has a definite advantage in shoot ability, control ability, and capacity.

I think a large part of the problem is that there are hundreds of doctors, clinics and labs all over the world trying to get a grip on this thing. Apparently they aren't real big on sharing info or comparing notes. The "facts" change every day. Nobody knows for sure what to believe.

Just picked up a Benchmade Adamas 275 and I’m really liking it so far. Very beefy knife. One I have now is black, thinking of picking up the tan auto version.

Sometimes it’s the simple little things in life that clear your mind. Like driving downtown to pick up a delicious pizza then going back home and they play one of the most overplayed songs from the greatest rock band ever. All windows down and the radio blaring for everyone to hear.

Electronics Also gives that “super” hearing / tactical advantage

Note especially the durability section and which red dots they report with "no failures."

Thanks for the kind words M5, it was a pleasure doing business.

I'm having an outpatient procedure done tomorrow at the hospital so they had me go in Tuesday for a covid test. All I can say is "damn!!!". They put that swab in my nose so far I was expecting to see brain tissue on it when they pulled it out. BTW, it came back negative, so at least I didn't have it when they did the test

And you think I don't? We are so focused on trying to protect everyone, when it's really just a small amount that truly needs protection. People in this country think very short term in response to things. The cry is always, "we have to do SOMETHING!" They never consider if the something is actually the best thing long term, or really even short term. Every one is quick to mask up but very few have asked, is this good for our bodies long term? Is this putting us at risk of other health issues (which I've already seen come up with my sister due to wearing a mask.) Is people wearing mask causing people who shouldn't be out taking risk to be out because now they feel "safe"? We have become too "clean" of a society and people are afraid to get any germs and that's now coming back to haunt us. Is there a middle ground, yes. Are we way past that middle ground, yes. Again, I have no issue with anyone wearing a mask if they desire to. I really don't. But people do not have the right to force health decisions, like wearing a mask, on other people. I care about people's right to chose for themselves how they take care of their own health. I may disagree with it sometimes, but I respect their right to chose.

Spikes is selling a 37mm one now. Should be plenty of places to take that. haha

Here is a pic 1911alltheway sent me the other day of the sheath he made for this one. I'll post up some more pics when I get this one back from him, he really did a great job on this one.

It took me awhile to find ammo for it, but was able to locate some. I have never shot a 44 magnum before so I am looking forward in the experience of this mighty handgun.

This has been my plan all along.
