yea considering nobody has any in stock -
There is a ray of sunshine here though. The county officials are within arms reach to punch his lights out. That is if one was po'ed enough to do such a dastardly thing!!

Hey OS, I am always confused about the parts you can have if you also have an AR pistol. If I have an AR pistol does that mean that I can't also own a AR rifle as it has a stock and possibly a forward grip?? Just asking.

Hey Mike, I bet they thought the air smelled better! Such a shame to waste all that natural scenic beauty on a bunch of fruits and nuts.

Try a kayak and a bunch of fishing tackle. You get a workout and if your fishing skills are good, you get fresh low fat food to eat. I just had to make a smart alec response. -
I am from Mississippi and the game and fish will argue that there are no big cats. There is a video that is on the net of one not too far from Meridian, Ms. There has been numerous sightings,but no hard evidence. Although if you shot one you would be in a heap of trouble as they are on the endangered species list?? The big cats are like bears or other animals, back in Ms. we have several sightings of bears within 1.5 miles of where I lived for 35 years and I was in the woods hunting, but I never saw them. That doesn't mean they don't exist in small numbers and want to live in the woods away from people if they can.

There is but 1 GOD. The god that the muslims pray to isn't the same one that created this world and gave his Son to die on the cross. I really feel bad for the parents and friends of those killed. The people in the middle east have been fightning among themselves for literally thousands of years. I don't want to change this topic, but does anyone find it odd that this happened in Pakistan and within hours there was film of the victims being rushed some by hand to a hospital, however the tragedy at Sandy Hook school none of those kids shot were taken any way to the hospital and given a chance to possibly live?? Does that ring any bells??

I will tell this story of being at a Honda dealer a few years ago when the yellow foremans came out. I was in the shop getting a tire patched as they were loading up this good looking yellow foreman and I commented on how good it looked. The serviceman said " that right there is a reason not to buy a used 4 wheeler" he said that guy was in every creek and river he could get into and they had changed all the fluids multiple times. I would buy one from a known friend that serviced it. I bought a used Kawasaki TransMule which is a 4 adult seated vehicle, I had a good 4 wheeler at the time, best purchase ever. I use that thing all the time doing jobs around the house, hunting and just riding. I would look at some side by sides, I really think they are the best for the dollar spent. A guy that I used to hunt with had paid $12K for a canam 4 wheeler and when I bought my mule he said man why didn't I get one of those instead of this?

Praying for ya Bersa. I always enjoy your posts.

Thanks I needed that laugh this morning!! Well done.

Saw this on Fox and had to share. They just showed a single mom with 2 kids that had put a layaway at Toys R us and when she went to pay them out, she was told someone had paid the bill. In fact that person paid for 150 accounts. In light of all the bad things we hear, the majority of the people you have contact with each day are really good people. In case I get too busy. MERRY CHRISTMAS to each of you and your families!!

PBS Poll: Would you support more restrictive gun laws in your state?
Dirtshooter replied to JohnC's topic in General Chat
Now they need a poll about whether or not idiots need to be regulated? Like AG that purposely "let" guns go across southern border!! -
I hate shipping based on price, not weight or size
Dirtshooter replied to vontar's topic in General Chat
I really like spending my money locally, but I also have a limit to my budget, I can't write bad checks like the gubermint. I always shop around a bit and most times I end up saving money. I understand a business needs to make a profit to stay in business, but they don't need to get rich off of me. -
Ok then why weren't all the victims rushed to the hospital for at least a chance of survival??? Because there wasn't any maybe?? Then they made all the victims stay overnight in the building?? The fact that they destroyed the building, ground it up and melted it??? Sorry to continue on this. I am with ya'll if they convict Bushmaster and make them pay, this will set a precedent for any other like an auto accident and sueing the manufacturer.

Dirtshooter replied to vontar's topic in General Chat
I personally would think the more you spend the cheaper the shipping especially for a small item like a knife. Oh well. -
Been doing a little web browsing on the Sandy Hook shooting and it is unbelieveable all the different stories. There were 3 things that really bothered me. 1. No ambulances took anyone to the hospital, all were pronounced dead at scene. 2. All the victims bodies remained in the building all night, this is unprecedented. 3. They not only tore the school building down, they shredded it, melted down the metal and made all the workers sign a document that they couldn't talk about what they saw. Well now I am wondering what did they see, was it possibly no bullet holes in the walls, doors, ceiling? No bloody mess on the floors? I don't know but the more I look at this, the more it is flawed. We will never know the truth.
-
Oma, I too sometimes doubt what actually happened. I was discussing this with the Mrs. a few days ago and I am still baffled as to why they tore down the school. I mean this is going a little far, I suppose we sheeple will never know the truth.

I heard this on the radio this afternoon. I am assuming the parents and at least 1 teacher is sueing Bushmaster as they say the AR-15 should never be owned by a civilian. This is just another in a long list of idiotic lawsuits. I truly feel bad for the parents, children and teachers that lost loved ones and friends. I guess you can never make a good enough argument with a liberal gun hater. I know you guys are aware that an idiot shooter would have killed a whole lot more with a shotgun. It is always the evil gun, never the idiot behind the trigger. I guess you heard the Muslim shooter in Australia, they got him but he killed 2 hostages. There is a shooter on the loose in Pennsylvania after multiple killings early this morning. Seems like there is always a shooting right around the corner. Always some in Chicago every night, but for some reason we don't hear much in the news about these. Hmmmmm!!!

I bought 3 boxes same lot of a well known brand of .308 same lot. Just happened to be looking at them prior to going deer hunting and found 2 or 3 rounds with no primer. I bought them at wally world and liked to have never explained the reason I couldn't use them at the return/customer service desk. I never thought about sending the company any correspondence. It pays to look at a round prior to loading it. Several years back an older doctor was at the shooting range and came into the store wanting a cleaning rod to remove a stuck piece of brass. He shot a .308 out of a 30-06 and it looked like a .308 straightwall like a larger .357 or such. He had shot some 4 or 5 rounds at a nice deer and missed, he was shooting 270's from his '06. That is a good reason to not make 30-06 out of 270 brass or vice versa, btw I know a guy that does that.

And I thought we were thrill seekers water skiing thru the lily pads and cypress knees back on the coast. That is insane. Some of the things these guys do are amazing. But if he hits that rock wall, when he gets old he will say, " If I had known I would live this long I would have taken better care of myself"

I know Hank is a ruger collector, he likes low serial number Rugers and bought 1 from a friend for $20K about 25 years ago.
-
Oh shoot you are closer than what I had, I just searched and the figure was 6 million, so to all that read my previous post just double that. So the number of rounds shot would be 3.3 billion and production at 1 million per day that would be 3,300 days or 9.04 years. I checked and Marlin 60 has sold 11 million, boy howdy, just those 2 models of guns would take the manufacturers a while to keep up. I won't bore you with the numbers, but just think of all the people that shoot more than 550 rounds per year.

I have an inflation calculator in my favorites and in 1960 a box of .22's were $0.40 and it said in 2013 it would be $3.10.The calculor stops at 2013 btw. Ok some more number crunching. I heard a week or so ago that Ruger has sold over 3 million 10-22's, now if each owner shot 1 brick of 550 per year and 1 manufacturer makes 1 million rounds per day it would take 1,650 days or 4.52 years to produce the 1,650,000,000 rounds. So put this in with all the other firearms that shoot 22's and you see the issue. If the issue doesn't fix itself soon, I am afraid a whole generation of kids will grow up not being marksman because they didn't get to shoot like I did.

I personally would take dumbo Joe Biden at this juncture. How could he be any worse, I mean really. At least he said get the double barrel 12 and let loose off of the deck!!
