Well, they are available today. We can get the full kits or the individual parts (most of them). Just let us know if you need them and we'll get here in 2 or 3 days.

The M&P's (IMO) is a lot of gun for the money. You get a good mil-spec AR with a melonite finish and a lifetime warranty (not that you'll ever need it ).

Mr. Campbell! Yeah, he was really aggravated by the bow hunters.

Unless the distributor just ran out we can get them at D&T.

Here's what I've been ridding pretty much everyday for the last year. Love it. I will be bumping up in size pretty soon but the Vstar does everything I ask. I have changed the intake and rejetted it and gained a noticebale HP gain over stock. Also took off the "dog bowl".

Yes, but no one is in jail without being convicted by a jury of their peers beyond a reasonable doubt. So essentially no one is being punished without cause. I know there are innocents convicted but it's still the best system in the world to date - flaws and all. Again the outcome doesn't change the principle. I would rarher be in on death row than have 5 suspected mass murderes free and living next door to my family. Phrase your question the other way and ask it to yourself.

If you try to make eveything perfect it won't happen. Innocents will always be there. Kinda like the poor. I have no problem with that. Those are just realities but it doesn't mean you don't work to right those wrongs. Better for one innocent man in prisonfor for abusing a child then several pedophiles running the street. I try to put myself in that situation and I have to apply it the same. If the righteous won't bear the burden of imperfection you really think the unrighteous will work towards perfection? I think the greater good outweights the reality of the greater evil.
-
You speak truth. I do find it ironic that it seems we say "innocent until proven guilty" but practice "guilty till proven innocent" in a practical sense. HCP's are a good example. Fighting this on the street is a Kwik tactic. Doesn't work all that well.

Glad Leonard is banned from TGO! He'd be all over that idea!

D&T Arms in Goodlettsville is a stocking dealer for Crossbreed and we have them in stock. If you want the often copied real thing I can have it on it's way today.

Feel Good Story - If You Don't Have A Dog, GET ONE!
Smith replied to xRUSTYx's topic in General Chat
Great story. Am I the only one who finds it amusing the Dog and new owner look alike? -
Kinda my point. I have a hard time believing all these guys knew what is known now and not only looked the other way, but in some ways facilitated the cover-up and then intentionally looked the other way. Some one suggested McQuerry may have had some relation to Sandusky as a kid and that would make more sense than anything else I've heard so far. It just seems like somethings missing. That being said if it is indeed how it looks now, I have no words for the amount of disgust and contempt I have for these "men".

Oh come on Mike! You really think Bush got a pass on this for over 4-5 years and only after Obama gets caught being incompetent Leahy it's just trying to be objective and due diligence? Whether Bush had anything similar going on our not is irrelevant. This is Leahy being Leahy, an idiot partisan trying desperately to give Obama a pass. Fail!
-
Sounds about right for Leahy.

From everything I've read it is a fantastic round. 357 Mag performance with half the recoil and blast. Add to that you get an extra round in the cylinder and it's all pluses. The only negative I've found is that plinking ammo is hard to find. Plenty of defensive stuff available but not so much on target stuff. That being said, you can shoot any of the .32's (.32 H&R, .32 short, .32 Long, .32 S&W) out of it so maybe you can get practice rounds that way.
-
For the record I agree with most of the sentiments but McQuerry's observation WAS reported to the police and they nor the DA pursued charges. This whole thing stinks. I can't imagine all these people protecting someone like it appears they did unless there is more to the story. I'm holding final condemnation until the rest of the facts come out.

Like you I am making some assumptions However, when I sold for Comcast i was told that they needed an average cost of $79 per TV subscriber and $45 per Internet subscriber to be able to make ends meet. Read into that what you will, but I don't see those numbers adding up to lowering normal subscribers rates. It is "their" decision on the surface but I addressed that in my other post. To maintain their market area "monopolies" they have had to make agreements with the government that allows the government to dictate certain terms under the table. This is well documented in many places.

Your premise is wrong. Increased sales from discounts only works in favor of the business if the margin is still above or at cost on the "loss leader". It also assumes that the customers buying at "cost" will spend more in bulk once they are in the door. Either way the business makes money on increased spending. By spreading the margin over more items the business is able to turn out more product more efficiently (lower cost) and so make the same margin on more items than they were making previously on less items. In the ISP/computer case the government is either subsiding product well below cost or requiring it to be sold below cost with no intent of increased customer spending. in fact the very premise that these people don't have enough for the normal cost dictates that they will not be spending on more product. So, while there may be more "business" it is not generating more income or more product sold with nominal margin enough to generate income for the business. In fact you get a negative flow. More company expense with less income means exactly what everyone has been telling you - increased cost for those who pay the nominal rate. The Y is different. It IS subsidized by outside donations and money to make up for the loss. If outside donations cease or lessen rates go up and income based programs are adjusted accordingly.

If you want to see how successful this will be look at the car companies, banks, ....... There is no difference. Yes, they are making a business decision that will make them rich in the short term and eventually ruin them long term. The CEO's know they are on the government hit list and are getting their money now before they have to run. Government wants to control information - plain and simple. The ISP companies have made their bed with government by agreeing to free market killing laws so they can keep their monopolies and make bank in the short run. In turn the government controls their distribution and lets them remain monopolies. We all know how well symbiotic government programs work out for the consumer and the economy.
