  1. Aww jeez bro, I'm so sorry. I hope he hits a phone pole and chokes on.................no, he'll get his. All of those kind of people will get their comeuppance.
  2. My misses is in the kitchen at the moment. Seriously, they are random at best. If I had to say, I'd say an even tossup between high left and low center.
  3. Yeah, I'm thinking it's headed for the classifieds......Thanks guys. Anyone ever wonder how & why things are like that? There's really nothing wrong, but..........

    Skunk

    Reminds me going to Louisiana for the summer to stay with the grandparents. We had to pass through a town called Bastrop. Ohh GOD THE SMELL!!!!!!! I actually welcomed a good fart to drown it out. Bastrop was a paper mill town BTW.
  5. My wife, Mother in-law and Sister In-law took a ladies day out trip on the TN Central Railway Museum just last month. Left nashville and looped around Monterey and back. Was a heckuva lot of fun they said. TC Railway Museum
  6. One piece will have a less chance of being misaligned due to differences in the receiver.
  7. I've seen a couple. There was one being fired at Knob Creek about 12 years ago. What I don't get is why no one has made one for a Mosin in 7,62 Tok? tel me you wouldn't buy one of those!!
  8. Probably why he's dead. Little too feely with some guys daughter?
  9. Sorry I tend to skip abbreviations for lack of understanding.
  10. I'm satisfied with the PT, but you may be right. It may just be the caliber. The XD is the only 45 [other than the PT] that I have liked so far. I've shot the M&P, it was fair. Didn't like the Glock. Had about 4 different 1911's They were VERY accurate, and I could hit with them with ease, but I hated 'em. Anyone got a Flat Dark Earth XD9?
  11. Yes the my handloads group very tight from a rest. 230g cast RN over AA #5. They group [from a rest] tighter than factory loads. No problems with the Taurus [same loads] My misses do not group at all. Sporadic, all over the map like some shaky kneed greenhorn. Never had anyone watch me, I don't usually play with the other kids on the playground:p Yeah!, I'd like to sort out the problem, but at the same time, I'm trying to decide if it's worth it. The problem doesn't exist elsewhere. It's interesting to note, I had the same problem with a Ruger MkIII a while back. I could NOT hit ANYTHING with it. Bought it brand new, bull barrel SS model. Sold it to a buddy who could make a can dance all day with it. I can do the same with my cheapie Rough Rider. Slept on it last night and I think the my biggest problem is the Idea of getting rid of it. See, I've gone through a major purge and caliber consolidation in the last few months. If I get rid of the XD45 and get another 9, I will only have the little Taurus and I don't shoot it much. Just enough to stay in touch with it because I do carry it. I'm not sure I like cutting 45 from my roster, but I am close to doing it. If I get rid of the XD, I'll probably quit carrying the Taurus too and just put it in the safe [never sell that one, wife and mother in law bought that for me before we were married] and go back to carrying my SP101. I can drill the eyes out of a mouse with that sucker. If I ever stop using 45, I can all but guarantee I'll never go back to it. I've lost interest in collecting guns for the most part, I only want to be skilled with what I have. I'd rather spend my time and money to further my ability with what I have than to broaden my selection.
  12. "...or better yet, go ahead and go that route." Would have been my next words. Picked up my hammer and headed for the truck.
  13. Oh, yeah the picture.
  14. Details on what the carrier is carrying? No not the Pmags or 92 mags:p

    Cicadas

    None here in western williamson. I haven't seen the first one. The front of my Toyota is greasy with the little demons from going out last night though!
  16. Just dump 'em ina good 50 cal or SAW can. Look at the rubber seal and as long as it's good, and the lid is tight [i've yet to see one that wasn't] you're fine. Not to be a smartaleck but they are ammo cans and that's what they were made to do.
  17. Love the XD's. NEVER, NOT ONE issue with them for reliability, comfort and ease of care. BUT, my XD45 is slowly losing my favor. I've tried 4 or five different factory loads AND have been toying with a cast load for the last 3 years. I just can't get accurate with it. I'm eating my foot with a side order of crow here for all the XD bragging I have done over the years. It's not the gun per se, I can bench rest it and it groups tight. I replaced the factory sights with a set of Tru Dot. No change. Rested, it groups well. Just me and my hands...nada. My XD 9 and I do not have this problem, and it still has factory sights [and they suck!] I can hit clay targets at 25 yards all day long until I get bored and go home with my XD 9. I love the .45ACP cartridge, I really do. I carry a Taurus PT145 everyday. But I am thinking since it's not the gun, and I don't have the same problem with a DIFFERENT gun, it's just an unholy union and it may be time part ways. I've always preferred the 45 over the 9mm but what good is the bigger cartridge that doesn't hit the mark? It's worthless that what. Thinking seriously about just trading it in on another XD9 and putting the bulk of my focus on 9x19. I have enough 45 loaded to last two lifetimes if only to feed the little taurus. Penny for your thoughts.
  18. Mehh, I love my 1/7 spikes barrel. handloaded 75g HPBT running close to 3K Tumble not really needed.
  19. Rebeldrummer, you can sum that up the way I do. If I die and I was wrong, and there is no god, I've lost nothing. If the rest of you die and there IS.......yall've got a hell of a problem.
  20. Wow. That's "hide under a rock" material right there.
  21. There oughta be a law 'bout them unloaded guns. They're dangerous.
  22. For the recod when I made that comment, this thread was still about getting shot!
  23. Why is it that i can see her complaining to the Dean about the party noise 2 flights up?
  24. Okay, I take my previous post back. I know who you remind me of. A character named Hub. Played by Robert Duvall in a movie called Second Hand Lions. You're the kind of guy that makes some of us lament our mundane lives.
  25. Hmmm. I've heard something like this before.....but where.......OHH yeah!
