  1. Scared you pretty good though didn't it???
  2. We used to take cherry bombs and a slingshot and the shooter would load up and pull back, while the other boy the igniter would light the fuse. The tricky part was some fuses are quicker than others, if you timed it just right you could launch the bomb way up in the air and shortly thereafter the sonic boom would rattle all the windows. Probably about as loud as shooting tannerite is today. It is a small miracle that more kids didn't blow off their fingers, hands or put out their eyes back in the day. Kids had to be smarter back then to survive!!LOL
  3. Thanks for all the input. I decided the owb and untucked shirt or jacket is best for me.
  4. I think perhaps Kalifornia needs to look at 11,000 lightning strikes in 1 week causing 367 wildfires. Sounds like God may be trying to send them a message??
  5. I admire the time invested, but I will pass at this time. LOL
  6. Just an FYI if it is allowed. Midsouth Shooters Supply had 30rd steel mags for $119.99 for a 10 pack.
  7. Yeah how screwed up is that. Of course if she kills you it will be a slow death with some disease!!
  8. I am seriously thinking of ditching our smartphones. I lived a pretty good life pre-cellphone and I can still do it. I have maps, can read the maps, have a landline and an answering machine. And if push comes to shove you can send snail mail via the current postal service. If you need to contact me you can call me at home, come to my home or send a letter. Look at all the options you have and none of them involve me paying $85 per month to have my privacy infringed. I also have a flashlight and a camera, as I use my phone for those 2 tasks more than talking on them. I have about had it with all this "smart" technology. I don't need a smart refrigerator talking to my laptop or T.V., sorry I am old school thru and thru. I can also cook supper without electricity on a gas range
  9. Oh it is free speech if the LEO lies to you to try and trick you into saying something incriminating. Don't talk to them. I don't see the difference in me lying to them versus them lying to me. If you want me to be honest, why are you not being honest??
  10. There is a right way and a wrong way to do things. All they had to do was get a judge to get them a warrant to install camera's and/or search the premises. I have a big problem with the fact that lots of game and fish departments in different states think they can go anywhere at anytime. I have mixed feelings about the fact they can put a dummy deer, turkey or elk out there hoping someone will shoot it. I really look on that as bordering on entrapment. The TWRA is like lots of LEO, there are some of their guys that push the limit a little too far. You can get a lot more flies with sugar than with vinegar.
  11. I just googled it and they say you can if you follow the directions. I would have said no. Shows what I know.
  12. I know this may be late, but if your wife likes a revolver which I think is the perfect cc weapon. Look at a 9mm revo and see if she likes it.
  13. Yep the kids of today have had too many freedoms taken away. They have helmets to ride a bike, seat belts to ride in a car, can't ride in the back of a pickup in most states, can't buy a pistol until he/she is 21 but join the Armed forces and we will furnish them a fully auto M-16, hand grenades, .50 cal, tanks you name it, but they can't legally buy a beer, a cigarette or a pistol, that is pretty screwed up if you ask me. I guess this makes me an old fart for sure!!
  14. I have permission to hunt some land near my house. A neighbor was found to have a deer feeder in his back yard that just happened to attract some turkeys. Another neighbor called the TWRA and I understand they now have camera's up near this guys place. So it may be an interesting deer season this year. I don't get the fact they needed 10 Federal and state guys to show up, sounds a little like intimidation tactics, similar to the Roger Stone fiasco.
  15. Well I just thought that $154 per 1,000 was high, I just saw on GB with 1hr 45min to go on auction for 2,000 CCI 500 SP primers the current bid is drum roll please $605 plus $30 shipping, or in laymens terms $317.50 per 1,000 or $0.3175 per primer. This person evidently needs some primers very badly and doesn't have ANY friends or even aquaintances that would loan or even sell at a measly $0.15 per primer. Hey Bill you are setting on a gold mine. If I see it going for more, I see a new boat in my future!! LOL
  16. Take some white spray paint to that steel and you can see where you are hitting it a lot easier.
  17. My old boss came home from work one evening and his wife said "do you know what your son did today"? And then told him Zach thru his demilled hand grenade thru the window, and my boss said it must have been a heck of a battle when you have to toss a grenade into you own barracks. I don't think she found that amusing.
  18. We need Charlton Heston back. This says it all.
  19. Thanks for the info Legion. Neat to have your grandfather's medal. Thank you and all servicemen and servicewomen for their service!!
  20. You are correct 2 wrongs don't make a right, but 3 lefts do!!
  21. 1 extra mag in front pocket, and extended mag when on church security, always 2 or 3 in my truck's console. I would rather have too many as not enough!!
  22. How true Ronald. I remember a few things my dad told me and 1 was not to tarnish your good name, because that was basically all you had going for you. He said you screw up and lie or steal or whatever and you could move to California and that bad rep would follow you. It certainly isn't the same world we grew up in. At age 9 I would buy a box of .22 shorts for plinking and squirrel hunting for $0.39, now kids can't buy knives, spray paint or glue for model cars. What a sad state of affairs!!! And ponder on this for a minute or two, we all had our own guns or access to them and no-one that I know even thought about taking a gun to school to shoot anyone. What went wrong? It isn't the fact of easy access to guns, it is some societal problem. Possible a parental problem??
  23. If I had to guess I would say the 80's. But it is just a guess.
  24. Sort of like allowing a wuhan virus to escape and come here??? I said a long time ago, never have to fire a shot, just turn the germs loose!! Can't see them, can't defend against them unless you have a MASK!!!
  25. Just like the Supreme Court, they aren't there to make laws. That is job of Congress. The BATF doesn't have any authority to make "laws". And unless I am a complete moron their suggestions are just that.
