  1. It's far less than a vehicle and doesn't count as a vehicle in the total number of vehicles in the household. So, yes ;
  2. I got this 2007 Yamaha Vstar 1300 with 4k miles last year as a workaround for insurance, the rising cost of fuel, and 3 teens on the insurance. Loved that bike. Got totaled in November! Promptly replaced with a 2010 Yamaha Stratoliner with 6k miles on it. Enjoying every bit of it!
  3. I'm continually amazed at what fear and "safety" can motivate people to let go of ... everything except fear!
  4. This is very true. There were massive population shifts in Europe and Africa the most recent time this happened. While it caused famines, diseases/epidemics, and a major structural change in agriculture and population centers in (specifically) the medieval Europea continent, it also lead to the industrial revolution and the modern world. Likewise in the far east and middle east. For every action there is an opposite and equal reaction. It's hard to tell what ingenuity man comes up with as we adapt to an ever changing world. The only thing that is certain is that we have always progressed from adversity.
  5. One thing those prognosticators tend to forget is that as countries become more developed, through the use of those resources, they inevitably become more aware and conservative with those resources once they become developed. Short term bad, long term good. It's an odd short term sacrifice for a long term gain. The other way is a long term burn out.
  6. Thing is those currents have shifted before. Part of the reason you can find palm trees on the northern cost of Scotland. Not every change is the end of the world.
  7. People can make there own decisions as well. You missed one for the other. It's not a vacuum.
  8. From the church side I would be careful about using the church as a personal exemption excuse. It would be all the impetus needed to officially go after church's. It's on their radar, just don't think this it's the thing to trigger them on.
  9. Yeah, some will. Of course I was more concerned with the slide stripping off Beretta 92FS's/M9's and they've been the military side arm since '85 or using ones hand to block the hammer in revolver/hammer fired guns. Again, good to know, but not really a realistic concern.
  10. If I'm pushing my gun into someone then trying to shoot them afterwords, a whole lot is already wrong. I don't see this as a "flaw". Well, no more a flaw than polyagonal rifling or non fully supported chambers.
  11. I'm kind of impressed your company would care enough to track down post on local forums, half way around the world to correct misinformation. May have to take a look at a Girsan.
  12. To a politician, anything that is intended to limit them is an obstacle. Eventually all of the constitution is a problem.
  13. I can't speak for David, but after seeing his initial response bout going for the C&H plate. I did as well and it was a wise, if not costly choice. It sits a bit lower, has a "recoil" shelf at the front and uses threaded post to get a better thread engagement for the optic. I have the Walther plate as well and would work just fine, but the C&H "mil-spec" is much better.
  14. They'll be enough alcohol to neutralize any virus and it'll be hard to tell if it's the virus or a hangover. BTW with that demographic, I think the virus is the least of the concerns. haha
  15. You sure are fired up about peoples perceived take on this story! Context is hard online, but my comment was a tongue-in-check shot at the hypocrisy of the "narrative". Not about Georgia killer or Watson. Sadly, whether Watson is guilty or innocent will make no difference. Much like the true story of Atlanta. It will be how the narrative directs "justice (social)" and how it can be used to further an agenda that only cares with the ideological outcome, not reality or real people.
  16. Protected class. He's the victim of the NFL Elite owner system and his addiction. His addiction will matter.
  17. It's an RPK clone. Com-block answer to the m240/249. Basically an AK with a longer barrel and bi-pod. That particular one is a VEPR, which is built in the Russian special weapons military factory. They are definitely capitalizing on the current state of American politics and import issues. $6k? not a chance. In the past RPK's were usually higher priced and a VEPR would have been a premium version (for some) but mainly because they were a niche collector market item.
  18. (Yeager) Well, it is hard to use an optic ... or a firearm laying facedown in a ditch. He does have experience.
  19. The original/breaking story was 3 dead and read like a small crime gone bad scenario at a low level psuedo prostitution joint. Most big cities, its not even front page. Truly curious why it got so much national traction. It's not a national story, maybe not even a regional story.
  20. Why is this a national story?
  21. They do.
  22. At least he was wearing as mask or it would have been alot worse!
  23. The IAC, HAWK, and Pardner are arguable better 870 clones. The steel is measurably better than US produced 870 steel. Some barrels take a little fitting, Mainly the barrel ring spacing, but never found it to be a problem.
  24. I personally think the Walther's are some of the best looking polyguns out there. Online. Its early in a gun rush, so they are hard to find and prices vary from $589 to over $800.
