DSLR Question for Professional and Advanced Amateur Photographers.
Dane replied to a topic in General Chat
The only suggestion I can make is check out Cameta Auctions on ebay. I've used them for over a decade with great success. I also second the other opinions of learn to use your camera before upgrading. Chances are it can take better pictures than you can at this point. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD -

[quote name="Andyshowfan" post="1105969" timestamp="1391521287"] I agree! I changed my info to the point that I just do pay the taxes owed with a little cushion. It was difficult to get a happy medium as I have a child from a previous marriage and have a couple of step children, so odd years we have 2 dependents and even years only one. [u][b]I was sick and tired of loaning the government interest free money! [/b][/u]If I owe them money and don't pay on time they charge me interest and a penalty, anyways I digress. Google search for "withholding calculator" and you should find one that you can plug in your parameters and it will tell you how to change your w-4 to meet your tax needs. [/quote] I still haven't figured out how to get the gov to stop sending me money. I claim 16 dependents on my check which takes me to a 0 withholding and they still want to give me several thousand. Our tax system needs overhauled. Should be a straight percentage with no deductions, credits, etc. More on topic, I use the online version of turbo tax for the past few years. I used to pay a CPA when I had 3 businesses, a house, and a second "home" (strangely a boat can be considered that). But now that it is just one W form and a couple of interest statements it is easy enough for me to handle. On another note, I was talking to one of my employees tonight who told me that H&R charged him $600 to do his taxes last year. He is single, no kids, and one w-2. Not sure why they charged so much.

[quote name="RC3" post="1106132" timestamp="1391546768"]So, what about that little guy up top? And how much does the TACOPS go for? I have two regrents D100's and they have been fantastic. Really well machined for their price. And just like hipower said, there IS something about the 1911 that can not be described.[/quote] That feller at the top is the mall ninja insurance policy. You know where you hear these guys that say never shoot a perfect score cause if you are in a shooting it will be used against you. And after I shot this I went out and found tinfoil on sale and made a bunch of cool hats. Not really... That was the first round out, first time I ever shot a 1911 or a 45. I would expect to see the price on a Tacops between $1000-$1100 depending on the dealer. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

[quote name="dralarms" post="1105752" timestamp="1391475742"]No, I'm talking about something close enough to see in my windows or appears to be close enough to be caseing my property, if it's high enough above my property for "normal" traffic then its on its own.

[quote name="DaveTN" post="1105704" timestamp="1391471133"]How much time did the felon that sold the gun to the chick that killed McNair get? BTW...So much for the idea that guns can’t be traced without paperwork. 3 convicted felons were arrested off that one gun.[/quote] Each threw the other under the bus. Not exactly tracing a firearm, more likely plea bargaining. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

[quote name="sigmtnman" post="1105638" timestamp="1391463450"]Can a low flying cessna hover outside a window? Besides, pert sure, they would end up in trouble...[/quote] We have been talking about a drone over your property not necessarily outside a window. I have ultralights fly over regularly, can I shoot them? And 500 ft is not all that high. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

I would think a tennis ball launcher, like those used for tennis practice, would work as well and be better built. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Seems to me, by the standards set by folks on here, I should be able to shoot down a low flying Cessna over my property because I suspect they are taking photographs. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

[quote name="RC3" post="1104990" timestamp="1391312330"]How would you rate the Tacops? I have never owned a sig before, so this is uncharted waters. I do hear nothing but praises from them as a manufacturer tho.[/quote] If the Tacops is half the gun my RCS is you will love it.

[quote name="TresOsos" post="1104784" timestamp="1391287787"]DQ-disqualitfied on a run or course of fire? Barrel with exit holes? ...one of the blue plastic barrels used for cover or part of a course of fire. Had a few exit holes with rough edges and smacked his hand against one during a reload and caused him to drop his gun. Thus the disqulaification. Am I right or even close in my interpretation of that gibberish.[/quote] And the main reason I have been hesitant to go to one of these matches even though it sounds like fun. Even with your explanation I still have no idea what you are talking about. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Seriously considering the ultra tt. I have a RCS and it is a super nice gun. The smaller ultra would be a nice addition. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

You can build an antenna for less than $10. Mine is picking up stations 40 miles away. [URL]http://www.tvantennaplans.com[/URL] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

[quote name="bersaguy" post="1103624" timestamp="1391099914"]you raised some good points but the best one was to deactivate your alarm system after entering the house. Reason being a high tech person can be setting in a van or vehicle with devices that can collect your remote codes when you use it before entering your home and make their own remote to turn your system off. Had that happen to a buddy of mine. Lucky he had a system that alerted him on his phone if and when his system was turned off and he greeted the bad guys when they came out of his home along with two police officers............jmho[/quote] Not as likely anymore. Most remotes have a million plus rolling code. The system should theoretically never use the same code twice. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

[quote name="gregintenn" post="1101707" timestamp="1390789205"]Great story. A couple of years back, we were about to go camping. My wife and I picked up some of those Jiffy Pop popcorn pans. We pulled them out one night at the campgrounds and the kids were every bit as amazed as I was the first time I saw a bag of microwave popcorn pop. You could really freak her out if you still have a record player somewhere. :rofl:[/quote] You mean my smoke alarms? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

I would suggest some more research into the breed. 1) NEVER buy a 6 week old pup. 8 weeks minimum, 12 preferably. Pups learn a tremendous amount of social skills from their mom and siblings between 6-10 weeks. 2) Expand your search. Great breeders often mean a little travel. The breeder I get my boxers from is an hour south of Indianapolis. Do not pick a breeder solely based on location. 3) Price is not important (well not the top concern). You will pay thousands of dollars for your pup over its life. The choice is either pay it up front for a well bred, genetically sound pup; or, pay it over the life of the pup in special diets, surgeries, vet visits, and heart aches. Goldens are very prone to eye problems, hip problems, and many other genetic issues due to poor breeding and tremendous popularity over the years.

The subs are like any other firearm. You put a few thousand rounds through them and practice with them and they feel like an extension. As with nearly any gun I've used the first few hundred rounds are just for introductions. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
