  1. kwikru would be a great name! You would get all sorts of attention!
  2. Evidently Darwin has not caught up to these two yet. Georgia Couple Arrested For Tattooing Their Six Underage Kids with Guitar String, Homemade Device - Crimesider - CBS News
  3. Here are the picture from the link above.
  4. Got it before the discharge. He is 22 according to his profile and says he has been carrying 1.5 years.
  5. I pm'd him and he changed mine with no problem. It was just easier to introduce myself to fellow TGOers as "Smith from TGO" than, "Hi, I'm nsnate02". Sounded like some Treky Convention weirdo!
  6. Awesome! Over towards Harrison, AR where my family is from I've heard them down on the Buffalo River bugling but haven't seen any yet.
  7. While interesting this has to be the ugliest thing ever. BTW I love this website. I get to see some weird stuff. Modern Firearms - Handguns - Armi Chiappa "Rhino" revolver
  8. Here they are. Same ones Kimber imported and now Charles Daly is importing. BUL LTD. - BUL M-5 Line
  9. Welcome. As one who grew up in Memphis, is white, and has a black sister all I can say if that offends you - you might need thicker skin. Memphis is a unique place as you well know and I have heard it called worse things. BTW - a lot of folks here get referred to as hillbilly rednecks, right wing extremist, gun nuts, terrorist and that's just by the government!
  10. Anyone ever try the mini shells?
  11. I wonder if these can make their way across the border! Modern Firearms - FX-05 Xiuhcoatl assault rifle
  12. Anybody ever used the 12g mini shells? Seems to be the best compromise of all considerations ......... if they work. Example : Ammunition To Go : 20rds - 12 gauge Aguila Mini-Shell Buckshot [28970] - $12.95
  13. Like to know too. I plan on adding a Knoxx Spec-Ops stock so the misses can handle it better.
  14. Yes you said the Depression which is what I addressed. That article is also indictive of the stats that show there are not direct, consistent parallels between crime and economics as a whole. Rather they are some what interpretive and misleading correlating factors given certain time periods. People attribute these to predetermined life views. As was my second point While that is true it is rather simplistic. For instance, low income household crime in cities is directly disproportionate to low income rural and suburban areas. Not only that but in rural/suburban areas the curve between economics and crime (ala Great Depression) tends to not be correlated. Jobs don't stop crime. Compare the 80's with the late 90's. We agree more than it sounds. I just am rejecting the preimse (not necessarily by you) that if everyone had a job there would be no crime. Sure economics affect some fringge elements one way or the other, but ultimately I believe the bulk of those that are criminals would be so regardless and that the net gain on either side is negligible to the overall stats. I also agree stats are just about worthless. They can be made to make any point. They also can not account for cultural forces behind the numbers. Which are usually key, but even more subjective.
  15. No, typical crime actually went the other way and Mutt's article proves both points icluding my second point, which i think you agree. I do, however reject the notion that poor economics "make" more criminals. Crime itself may rise marginally, but character is something you either have or you don't. It is not cause and effexct. If it were not so the curves would directly correspond in both scope and size. They do not. .
  16. Who?

    New rifles

    Had a 111 in .270 and really liked it. This is before the Accutrigger so I am curious as to how those work.
  18. That's the good part of it. Got to work the valet gig till 11 then got to go to my regular job till 7 am! At least the money is finally good!
  19. Man, after 24 it gets harder to get back in shape. After 30 it get a lot harder. I don't want to find out what happens after 40!
  20. Here is a pretty good article about "M4" feed ramps. M4 Feedramps - M4Carbine.net Forums & http://www.ar15barrels.com/gfx/feedramps.jpg
  21. About the only problem I've had was with Remington green/white box ammo. Some of it appears to not be hot enough.
  22. Not true. Just look at stats during the great depression and other economic downturns. It is however an excuse for some who find validation in the media to promote their leftist agenda on how the government is the only one who can stop the down economy.
  23. Yes the "M4" will work. The feed ramps only make a difference in full automatic/3 rnd but is nice to have for what little difference they make.

    SCCY....?

    They are Kel-tec P11's with manual safeties from a company with character problems.
