  1. Is this TGO's own David Yancy endorsing Tactical Response? Obviously not, but when the video cam up it took me a few minutes to figure out what was going on. A whole series of bubba and his Wasr celebrating TR using TGO. hahaha.
  2. Unless they are idiots and show cause. It's happened before. BTW - i liked the "sent from" tag!
  3. I would keep silent and obey their policy. It seem pretty clear that you can with an HCP. The question remains if that was what they meant. Clarification can only take away any legal recourse down the road.
  4. That's is absolutely hilarious!..... in a dark Tosh.O kinda way.
  5. It's not payback. If anything they are owed. You don't get much more Democrat and leftist liberal than these two. I think they have some serious issues and are trying to clear them out to avoid the labels in the elections.
  6. Yeah, he shouldn't have been so aggressive. I can see the spin now. Some how he will be the bad guy.
  7. Maybe he is a relative of the magical flute maker.
  8. Already been posted, but funny to watch again.
  9. Primary Arms seem like the way to go for the low end. I have the Vortex SPARC and LOVE it. It doesn't wash out, auto offs, and has 3 different mounts so you can lower 3rd/cowitness/or mount it really low. It is also NV compatible which I can see ever practically using There is a a couple reviews and videos where the SPARC "torture" tested and it never missed a lick. Guy even threw it all over the range and it didn't stop. It also comes with a doubler. They run $189 these days. They are also compatible with all Aimpoint micro mounts.

    Next EDC poll.

    So I have time to think about what gun to get for my next EDC, so give me you opinions. I prefer a full size or mid size with a low bore axis. Of the ones listed I have owned, carried, and liked all except the SR9 but I like it from handling it in the store. I've had a regular FNP but not the FNX. Glocks are not listed for a reason, although I've had three at different times and I've liked the 3 XD's I've had but the higher bore axis just doesn't work as well for me. FNX9 - LOVE the looks (two tone), feel, ergos, and ability of C&L. Hammer is a big plus. M&P9 - Really like the two of these I've had although the triggers can be iffy. SR9 - feels and looks good (two tone) but some of the initial quality issues/recalls are of concern. As well as the reported less than stellar trigger. Walther P99 - great ergos but too pricey new.
  11. Sportsmans Guide has them for $25 Tool Logic Sl3 Fire Knife, Knives, Tool Logic at Sportsman's Guide. Nice idea.

    Short List

    FNX9 two-tone - Carry gun Uzi (full size) - Perfect HD gun Marlin 336 - - great all round hunting/HD gun Kel-Tec RFB - ooooooohhhhhh! Taurus 709 or Kel-Tec PF9 - carry backup GSG-5 - for the kids and LOTS of ammo!
  13. distilling is an efficient and safe method.
  14. Looks good. Tron was cutting edge theory/concept for it's day and my initial impression was a followup would be a bad idea. However, it looks like they maintained the look, feel, integrity, and story line of the original. Could be pretty cool for us that remember the original and disappointing to the younger folks who are expecting another Avatar.
  15. Uh ... this, whatever it is, has nothing do to with the discussion. Gets old. Disagree with Islam - Islamaphobia. Disagree with homosexuality - homophobia, Disagree with the President - racist, and on and on and on it goes. Argue facts and figures, not t-shirt sentiments. BTW - I would say 15754 Islamic terrorist attacks just since 9/11 is hard to call insignificant. In June alone there were 180 "Jihad" claimed attacks in 19 different countries with 601 dead and 833 critically injured. Islam: Making a True Difference in the World - One Body at a Time
  16. I'm thinking that's a red card fo sho!

    Animated Witness

    I'm speechless.
  18. Jaime, the side seam split about half way down and water was spewing out in a 4"-5" long 1/2"-1" thick fountain. It went all at once as far as I know. It was a 60 gallon tank. I had looked at it about a week ago and it looked to be in good shape. No heating issues, noises, leaks, or any other signs I have seen from them in the past. Needless to say a tank-less WH is replacing it. To all the rest, I appreciate your words. I'm not asking for sympathy or complaining rather just trying to encourage others I've seen going through hard times. Your not alone in these tough times. Circumstances may differ, but struggles are struggles. I've preached for years life is about perception and now I'm getting to practice it. While it's hard for a control guy like me not to know what next week holds, I'm having to practice Matthew 6. Key is to not give up. For me, I try to think of Christ being beaten and tortured for my sin. Then caring my cross up a long hill just to die and at that point nothing in my life seems so hard or unfair anymore. Perspective is easy to teach, hard to get, and darn near impossible to maintain.
  19. Folks who start quoting freedom of religion stuff in defense of Islam are either ignorant of history, the Koran, and Mohamed or are foolishly naive. Islam is first and foremost a socio-economic-political movement covered with the cloak of religion. A wolf in sheeps clothing. No different than Jim Jones, Branch Dividians, etc. All the other religions at some point were coopted to be used by governments and leaders for their own purposes. Big difference. All one has to do is compare Jesus and his teachings to Mohamed. Simplistic, but clear. What Ramsey said is true and correct in it's context.
  20. Wow that's harsh Mike, but I gotta agree she's not all that pretty. I imagine if she didn't have the movie thing she'd be just an average girl. Now Julia Roberts is the one I really don't get.
  21. Everyone knows the old saying about when it rains it pours. Well, it's been that way lately. Last week when to get the brakes on my 60k Explorer serviced and low and behold the front hub assembly decides to lock up. Mind you I had just replace the other one not 3 weeks before! So needless to say $200 turned into $600+. Sold my only carry gun to stay level. My third backup job has become my main job, making 1/3 of what we used to make and even then it wasn't enough. Well last night I discovered a new saying. When the hot water heater breaks it REALLY pours! The hot water heater (in the attic - never a good idea!) decide to pop. 3 am, 40 gallons of water, and a collapsed kitchen ceiling later and I got issues. All that to say it could've been worse. My 3 month old has been sleeping in the kitchen (portable crib) directly under the spot where all the water SHOULD have come through. Well, all that water decided to travel about 4 feet over from where the heater was leaking and then poured on the floor. Baby stayed bone dry. No sooner had we awaken and rolled her out of the kitchen the ceiling falls in! Now I know some don't believe in God and consider everything coincidence, but I don't. It makes no sense for the water to flow uphill away from the main leak (where baby was sleeping) and for the ceiling to hold up just long enough for me to wake up and move her before it all fell in. Turns out insurance is going to cover it all and we will even be able to catch up some other expenses and save a little in the meantime. Miracles happen. Shouldn't be able to make it on our income but we are. Yes we have had to do our part, but I am so glad God is watching over. He has always provided. Maybe not what I wanted, but always what we needed. I know a lot of guys here are struggling like I am and I have to admit I was about done with things last night not knowing how we would make it. Just thought i share and hope it can encourage some. Lesson learned? Don't grumble about the today's manna. Matthew 6:25-34
  22. Good observation, however there is a major difference between the two. The former was between soveriegn citizensof the us and the AZ issue involes citizens not under or protected under the constituion. In the AZ case right is on the side of the state this time and most people know it.
  23. Ingeniously cool waste of time! Very interesting
  24. You won by virtue of a loss.
  25. True, I was quick-reading that post and mixed it with another one that said otherwise. Very true.
