No, it's not sprayed on. It's dipped into a "bath". Pretty awesome to watch. The method is actually pretty durable. You'd be surprised to know which products are coated with the very same method. The one and only time I was able to visit a demonstration of the process, they were doing all the plastic parts for 4X4 ATV's and other off-road vehicles. I'd say it's pretty tough stuff.

Congrats! A friend of mine purchased on from Hero-Gear, and he loves it. For a small .380, they do shoot very well, IMHO. I think it's the added weight over some of the other smaller .380's. Because of it's size and shape, it's a great pocket pistol.

Welcome to TGO! Congrats! Enjoy your stay!

Congrats! I'll second the suggestion to visit Shawn. I dealt with him during my AR build. Class act guy.

Ouch! Earthquake?

For those keeping track, my fat a$$ just walked another mile.

Looks like a milk snake

Why? strickj going to be chasing you around the bedroom more often? Sorry! I couldn't resist. I was like waving a piece of chocolate cake in a fat kids face.

I'm Fat. Very fat. It's my own fault. Yes, I can eat a lot, but it's more what I eat, rather than how much of it I decide to shovel in my fat face. Sometimes I will eat far too much food that's bad for me. On top of that, I am lazy. If I'm not at work, 9 times out of 10 you'll find my fat a$$ sitting in front of this computer. No need to throw around a bunch of excuses of why I have let myself get this fat, because fact is, there is no excuse. By the way, I walked nearly 1 1/2 miles today when I got home from work, and I plan on doing it several times per week. No it's not a record, but it's nearly 1 1/2 more miles than I've walked in quite a while. It's simply something I need to do. I don't want to die of a heart attack before I get the chance to pick up a few sleezy chics on my new motorcycle. Heck, the bike is going to have a hard enough time draggin' my fat a$$ around, it surely wouldn't be able to handle another person. To answer your question, most people are fat for the very same reasons that I am. It's actually pretty simple. Eating too much of the wrong foods and not getting enough exersize.

My Grandfather uses one of these. He lives somewhere between 1/4 and a 1/2 mile off the road, and is in a heavily wooded area. With this set-up, "line of site" is no issue. The signal is plenty strong for the terrain. Of course, it's not as cheap as some of those others, but it looks like most of them are only good for 500-700 feet, max. http://www.absoluteautomation.com/dakotaalert/index.html He purchased a unit with the handheld receiver, so he's able to carry it with him while he's in his shop or garage. Many have a base station that requires you to be inside the home to hear it.

Rightwinger is the local Helpful AR Man! I still owe him a few magazines worth of ammo shootin' through my AR. I haven't forgotten.

Welcome to TGO! Enjoy your stay!

I'd order a stronger spring, but in the meantime, you can stretch the factory spring to make it work again.

I wonder if they try truth serum during these interrogations.

They are enemy combatants, but not "lawful" enemy combatants. That's why our governemnt claims these terrorists do not qualify for prisoner-of-war status under the Geneva Conventions.

Good point. I was talking with a friend about that very subject. Why are these tactics only used at the Federal/Military level? Surely our local authorities could benefit from the same tactics. Just imagine how many murderers, child molester and rapists they could put behind bars with a little waterboarding and sleep deprivation.

Happy Memorial Day! There are a few fallen Tennesseans mentioned in this video. YouTube - Some Gave All - A Tribute to Our Fallen

That's great! Glad to see so many helping Caleb.

Congrats. Nice to see another fan of the SA XD series. Enjoy!

The peeling paint on the inside of the receiver is normal. Same thing happened on my daughters 10/22. I haven't gone out of my way to remove it, but do make sure to clean it well after each trip to the range. A little more comes loose with each trip. She's only used Remington Thunderbolt and CCI, and she's never had a single issue. She also uses only the factory magazines. There are endless aftermarket options, and RFC Home is the best place for info about 10/22's.
