  1. Sooooooooooo I am in the middle of my next camo job and still have no idea which direction I'm going (like the one that started this thread). The difference is, this is the wife's and she wanted pink integrated into it. Good thing is, she wanted dull/light pink, not bright pink. I also started this one with high temp primer first, and just put the first coat of pink on. It looks good, better than a bright gloss pink would have. I'm going g to let it sit over night before the next coat of pink. Give me a day or two to think about a design idea. I'm taking pictures along the way and will post them when I'm done. Although the pink is so light it almost looks white in the pictures, on my small screen anyway. Anyway, to be continued....
  2.   Sounds like a good plan. That Boyd's Tacticool stock looks pretty nice and is in that price range too. Good luck and enjoy your new purchases!
  3.   Thanks, never been there but may check them out just for this rifle. I've heard good things about them and would like to pick one up. Glad to see you're happy with yours. Are you going to keep the factory stock or change to upgraded one, or don't know yet?
  4. Very nice! Did you buy it local?

    Brownells?

    I have always used them, especially for tools. As said above, good to go!
  6. Congrats! Glad to hear the good news!
  7. Better get him a magazine or your in danger!
  8.   Very few aren't anymore. Like the teenage ticket takers are supposed to keep the customers safe  :rant:
  9. He was supposedly in the back of the theater shooting downwards. Did he shoot only a few times and then shoot himself? Seems someone would have tackled his punk a$$ since the gun was pointed forward. Unless it was empty being a Thursday and he had the room and time to commit this cowardly act!
  10. Welcome to TGO!
  11. I bet that is sweet! I've watched a few videos of guys bobbing hammers, just want to make sure I don't take off too much. But hey, that's what extra parts are for!
  12. Very nice, and congrats! I've bough a couple of ALG QMS triggers just to have smoother than stock feel. For 46 bucks, I can't beat it. Once I practice polishing out the grit of stock triggers, then I won't pay for ones that have been polished. But for now, they are a great cheap upgrade.
  13. I like it! Very nice :up:
  14. Here's video captured at part of the shootout http://wkrn.com/2015/07/16/raw-video-chattanooga-shooting-caught-on-tape/
  15. I'm a long way from those kind of distances but would love to be comfortable at 50 yards for hunting. My form and confidence has come a long way but this things is so much lighter with more let off, that it's like I'm learning it all over again (which is fun to me). I actually look forward to getting home to shoot this one versus kinda dreading shooting the old one because I couldn't shoot it as long per practice outing.
  16. Last week I decided to start practicing with my bow for deer season since it's less than 3 months away :rock: I got it dialed in for me and have been shooting at 10 and 20 yards every night after work. Longest shots I can get here at home. It shoots so much different than my old bow, especially since it's a 29" draw length which is what I need, and the old one was 30". That helped alot but is different in learning again. I'm really focusing on my form and release so I can be better at longer distances should I ever get a farther shot opportunity in the woods. I'm so pumped up that we are so close now when in January I just wanted to cry because it was so far away haha Anyone else shooting already?

  18.   I thought so. I guess they are ignoring the "Responsible for the bullet" statement.
  19. http://www.fox17.com/news/features/top-stories/stories/Judge-Won-39-t-Issue-Arrest-Warrants-After-2-Hit-by-Stray-Bullets-on-4th-of-July-159029.shtml   This is crazy.    NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- A 9-year-old girl and 28-year-old man are recovering from gunshot wounds because of stray bullets on the 4th of July. Now Metro police officers tell FOX 17 they can't do anything to prevent this from happening. Officers tell us Davidson County magistrates won't issue arrest warrants for people who celebrate by shooting guns straight into the air. When someone shoots a gun in the air, Metro police tell us they go to night court and ask a magistrate for an arrest warrant. It turns out, their requests are getting denied. As fireworks lit up the sky at Nissan Stadium, bullets fell towards the earth. One hit Tom Michaud in the arm. "You can see a little mark where it went straight down," said Michaud. Another stray bullet hit a 9-year-old girl. "It's pretty sad," said Audrey Moore, a Nashville resident. No one died but Magistrate Tom Nelson says no one will be arrested for these incidents either. Nelson issues arrest warrants. He says he refuses to give police officers permission to arrest people who simply shot their gun into the air. He cites a Tennessee law that states reckless endangerment must put "a person in imminent danger of death or serious bodily injury". Nelson says shooting in the air, doesn't meet that threshold. Michaud disagrees, "I think if you shoot in a large crowd like that, you really are putting somebody in imminent danger." "Because once a bullet goes up it has to come down somewhere," said Stacia Thomas, a Nashville resident. "Do you think it's OK to shoot your gun in the air?" asked reporter Sabrina Hall. "Absolutely not," said Dean Baxter, a Nashville resident. "Nobody with any sense would do that. It's the law of physics: what goes up must come down." Yet, Metro Police say they can't arrest people for it because Davidson county magistrates, like Nelson, won't issue a warrant. "I think the law needs to be changed," said Moore. It means even if police learn whose bullet lodged into Michaud's arm, that person won't be charged. "I'm not too happy about that because he obviously caused somebody harm," said Michaud. "Whether it was intentional or not, he could've cost somebody their life." This city code says it's illegal to discharge your weapon within Nashville's city limits unless you're in a shooting range or hunting. Still, the magistrate says he would not issue an arrest warrant for the people who shot their guns on the Fourth of July.

  20. Very nice, congrats.
  21. I've got quite a few spare parts sitting around but ordered one of these anyway. Few things in this one that I don't have sitting here. Thanks for posting this.
  22. Did you use long screws through the tennis balls? Kinda hard to tell from the picture
  23. Good deal, bad timing for me to get one :lol:
