Not to worry. Anyone that's a productive member of society will eventually pay a lot more than $600 back in taxes.If they would only deal with Covid instead of throw all the pork into the bill it wouldn't bother me so much.

The lighter spring that comes extra in the bag with the tactical model is there for shooting with a suppressor. It worked better in mine with the lighter bullets until it was broken in well. Great shooter now with any ammo or spring.

Be sure to switch to the lighter recoil spring if shooting 115 grain bullets to avoid FTF while it's new. Good to go with either spring with 124 grain or bigger. You will love this pistol.

I have FNP45, FNX9, FNS9 compact and 509 tactical. They are all great guns that have always run flawlessly. The 509T does have a break in period with 115 grain ammo unless you switch to the lighter recoil spring that comes with it. It loves the heavier weight and +p ammo. Expensive mags aren't that big of a deal since it comes with one 17 round and two 24 round mags. It's a keeper for me.

Whenever the "Ginger or Mary Ann" question comes up I have always gone with Mary Ann. Sad news

CDNN stopped selling ammo not too long ago. I guess they decided time was right to get back in.

I too have the fuzzy front sight syndrome. I installed the Big Dot on my FNS9 compact and Ruger LCR and am very pleased. I tried red dot on various handguns but like them better on long guns.

We checked it out about 5:30 with binoculars. Pretty cool. Happens again in 2080. I'm not staying up for that one.

I've made several purchases at the store here in the boro. Hope it remains as good as it has been so far. Got a sweet deal on a Ruger carbine on a one day sale. Ordered it online and picked it up at the store. No shipping or FFL fees.

My good friend Bill Irwin is the only blind person to thru hike the entire Appalahcian trail. He did this with help from his guide dog. His dog had no training how to read trail markings but lead him the whole way. Bill and the dog have both passed on now but quite an inspiring story. https://www.guideposts.org/better-living/travel/led-by-faith-to-conquer-the-appalachian-trail

Merry Christmas BersaGuy and everyone else on TGO.

Praying for a speedy recovery and light symptoms.

Praying for you. My btother inlaw was diagnosed with stage 4 liver cancer in March. He gets regular immuno therapy as opposed to chemo due to the late stage of the disease. He is still hanging in there and has actually improved some. Hoping they can get you fixed up.

I know several people that I will show this to that say he is only after guns that no one should have anyway. I jokingly told one that I was going to get a machine gun next. Her response was "at least it's not an assault rifle".

Funerals can be very costly or somewhat reasonable. Not sure about pricing these days. My Dad asked for cremation. Total cost for that 5 years ago was right at $1,000. He told me several times in his final years that old age made a person not afraid to die and he was ready when his time came.

Good for you. Merry Christmas to you.

Prayers for an excellent outcome.

It Snowed Last Night.. 8:00 am: I made a snowman. 8:10 - A feminist passed by and asked me why I didn't make a snow woman. 8:15 - So, I made a snow woman. 8:17 - My feminist neighbor complained about the snow woman's voluptuous chest saying it objectified snow women everywhere. 8:20 - The gay couple living nearby threw a hissy fit and moaned it could have been two snow men instead. 8:22 - The transgender man..women...person asked why I didn't just make one snow person with detachable parts. 8:25 - The vegans at the end of the lane complained about the carrot nose, as veggies are food and not to decorate snow figures with. 8:28 - I was being called a racist because the snow couple is white. 8:30 - I used food coloring to make one of the snow couple a different color and be more racially inclusive. 8:37 - Accused of using black face on the snowman...snowpersons. 8:39 - The middle eastern gent across the road demanded the snow woman be covered up . 8:40 - The police arrived saying someone had been offended. 8:42 - The feminist neighbor complained again that the broomstick of the snow woman needed to be removed because it depicted women in a domestic role. 8:43 - The council equality officer arrived and threatened me with eviction. 8:45 - TV news crew from ABC showed up. I was asked if I know the difference between snowmen and snow-women? I replied "Snowballs" and am now called a sexist. 9:00 - I was on the news as a suspected terrorist, racist, homophobe, and sensibility offender, bent on stirring up trouble during difficult weather. 9:10 - I was asked if I have any accomplices. My children were taken by social services. 9:29 - Far left protesters offended by everything marched down the street demanding for me to be arrested. 9:45 - The boss called and fired me because of the negative association with work that had been all over social media. 10:00 - I cry into my drink because all I wanted to do was build a snowman... Moral: There is no moral to this story. It is what has happened to our world. We need to get back to: LOVE ONE ANOTHER copied and shared

It won't happen overnight but if you do the rehab religiously (especially the stretching) you will be a new man.

My "store bought knee" is 8 years old and has been a blessing. Surgery was done in October of 2012 and the following April I did a 100 mile bicycle ride. Since then I have logged just over 50,000 miles on the bike and on my last xray it showed no wear. I had a rented ice machine for a few days after going home which my insurance paid for if I remember correctly. you should check into that with your surgeon.

RIP Michael. Good music in Heaven.
