Oh Shoot

Certainly, they would see the current state of the government as no less tyranny than what the British imposed. Assuming that a few of the more hotheaded ones hadn't already stormed the capitol, Jefferson et al would be underground, organizing the "citizen militia" for a widespread and potentially more effective revolt. Of course they would be vilified with every "anti-American" label imaginary. (They would also be immensely impressed with the current state of firearm technology available to the public -- hence the ultimate reason behind gun control legislation). - OS

As I mentioned in other similar thread, it seems apparent they've made some changes in the permit dept., must've thrown some money and/or technology/personnel into the mix in the last couple months. Whole DOS website redone, too. - OS

They didn't lose any of my stuff or send any letters. Just black hole of inaction and misinformation. - OS

Oh, well that ain't so bad, then. Guy told me it was kinda pricey, all I knew. Also, I said it felt "heavy" -- on second though, I don't really remember the weight, just that it was too big for me to consider for carry. - OS

I shot one at the last Norris get together. Feller had one (not one of "us"); let me shot a few rounds. Not much kick at all; easy to get back on target for sure. Big and heavy gun though, and ain't the ammo pricey? - OS

Well, frankly, the first line was the only one that made any sense here. - OS

I was half expecting that! But you're not the one who usually says it, I don't think? - OS

Seems to me a disproportionate number of folks on TGO get pulled over, period. I don't know what, if any, conclusion to draw from that. - OS

Reason I knew right off, had seen it somewhere recently...found it, xdtalk, more and detailed pix, too (scroll down page): http://www.xdtalk.com/forums/general-hs2k-sa-xd-talk/94213-pretty-much-agreed-sa-holsters-junk.html - OS

XD in the "XD Gear" holster attached to metal bracket. That what you mean? - OS

Yeah, sorry to go back on topic and all, but got a call from Dick's yesterday...got 1 case of UMC 9mm for 7.98/per. Raincheck from over 3 weeks ago. And no, they still had NONE for sale in general. Cheapest 9mm was the American Eagle at 14+ bucks a box of 50, actually down from almost $20/box not long ago ("They've lost their minds at Dick's" thread). - OS

A conscientious poster would STEAL them and put on his own space somewhere. - OS

Like, far out, man! - OS

I've read many times that big watt hairdryer is the ticket for reforming kydex holsters. - Oh "haven't ever tried it" Shoot

Carnac The Great translation: kcevans wanted a part that SW would only sell him if SW (or maybe an authorized service shop) installed it. - OS

"Oh, the girls all get prettier at closin' time..."

He does, noticed it right off when I met him. I don't like to be that conspicuous so I have mine in flip-out wallet with carry permit, can loop over belt whenever I'm in yellow alert or higher. - OS

Looks like a penis, only smaller? - OS

Yeah, right on. Umm, wait a minute, that's what Dubya did! - OS

Thick, though. - OS

Dad was walking across the (I forget which) stateside Army base with a new civvy suit, about to be a civilian again, when the Pearl Harbor news hit. Some time later he was in third wave at Omaha Beach, and then a long walk over lots of European landscape. - OS

Yeah, I used .22 also, pistol almost as old as me. Ammo might have been older, had 6 or 8 duds in the 48 rounds fired. I only had an old .38 snubbie besides the .22 at the time, and yeah, had I known the target part would be that easy, could have used it. But would have cost more - OS

(regarding carry +4" knives) Aha, I overlooked both your post and this mention in TCA. Thanks, Fallguy... - OS

Oh. So, is a foot of sea water more/less than a foot of fresh water? Or a foot in no water? Why not just "feet"? - OS

Head sure does look like great white...maybe those are just the baby teeth. So what is fsw? - OS
