Ya never know what might happen. I live in a nice quiet neighborhood. Yet a couple of years ago there was a shooting right down the street. In this case it was a disagreement between a man, his ex-wife and her new boyfriend. Apparently an argument turned into gun fire. The shooter was caught quickly and the victim survived. No place is safe anymore.

Blur Bloods was constant money maker for 14 years and was the #11 rated show, behind several big sports programs, at the time it was killed. If you read the articles, the entire cast and crew offered to take a 25% pay cut. Offer refused. Selleck tried to buy the show and take it to another network. CBS wouldn't sell. CBS made up their minds that the show had to completely die and nothing was gonna change that.

When a major network kills one of its most successful shows due to politics, it shows just how committed they are to the liberal agenda. Scary, ain't it?

Its a Bundt cake. You figure it out.

I've been a fan of Blue Bloods since the very beginning. Great show! Like many I was surprised that it got canceled this year after 14 very successful seasons. As it turns out, I wasn't the only one. The cast and crew were taken by surprise as well. They all wanted the show to continue and many tried hard to keep it going. So why did CBS cancel one of their most popular shows? Well, it seems that CBS decided that a show that promoted family values and supported police no longer fits in with their current "woke" thinking. So it had to go.

Sorry to hear that. Rest in Peace.

This is the bottom line right here. Safety is paramount. Legal or not, if you endanger others, you're wrong. 20 years or so ago I was at a group shoot up in Missouri. We were on one guy's private property and using a large hill as a backstop. One of the neighbors came over and complained that bullets were flying over his property and were dangerously close to his house. Frankly, we thought he was full of it and just wanted to be a PITA. That hill was huge, no way it didn't stop every round. But, just to be sure, one of our guys went over and took a look. 10 minutes later he came running back yelling "Cease Fire!" The bullets were ricocheting off that rocky hill and were indeed landing on this man's property near his house. There was never the slightest doubt among any of us. We immediately stopped shooting and never used that area as a range again. Safety has always got to be the first consideration.

Will trade for ammo, accessories or whatever. Make me an offer.

Still available

Very sad to hear. Don't really know what else to say.

new price. $15 each

I'm not absolutely sure. I know the live ammo was marked, not sure about the empties. They're saying the words were written with a marker pen. Good chance it was wiped off the empty cases by being fired. Hell, we're four pages deep into this and the only thing anybody knows for sure is that CEO dude is dead. Everything else is just rumor and speculation.

Since the live ammo found was marked with "deny," "defend" and "depose", there's some speculation now that the rounds were dropped on purpose to spread the message.

Those people are so full of ! Why are they so focused on the gun? If you watch, the shooter uses a standard hand over rear of slide to cycle the gun. The gun is obviously some type of standard 9mm with a suppressor. Is there not one real gun expert available to them? And what Veterinarian uses a 9mm? I guess they need to fill time with something since the cops can't find the shooter.

Just trying to offer inexpensive but valid options. I wouldn't do it, but it is an option.

Ordinarily, I'd say no. But as it is a family heirloom and you do plan to keep it, sure go ahead. I suppose you can find somebody to just refinish the gun locally. But be sure to check their other work before giving it to them. Many will polish the gun on rotary wheels and damage the markings. That's a sure value killer right there. What you really need for that gun is a proper restoration. Some place like Ford's can make that gun look like when it was brand new. But it don't come cheap and could be a year or more to get it back. Then there's always the DIY option. Polish by hand and preserve all the markings. Its slow but you know you won't damage anything. I've had excellent results with a product called Blue Wonder. But be sure to read and follow the directions exactly. Just had another thought. You could have the gun Ceracoated or even hydro-dipped in black. Cheap, but functional.

One thing I have noticed with the MSM. If an average Joe gets killed, its murder. When its the rich CEO of a big corporation, its an assassination.

I'm also seeing zero empathy for the victim. In fact, I've seen several memes showing the name and picture of several other health insurance company CEOs. After all, who hasn't wanted to shoot their health insurance provider at some point? Another point being made is that people get shot in N.Y. everyday. But because this guy was very rich, NYPD is pulling out all the stops to solve this. That's being used as another point against the victim. While I'd never condone murder, it seems that general opinion is shaping up like the victim deserved it. If they catch the shooter, he may well be applauded as a hero. God forbid that he get killed by police. Then he'll be a martyr.

Yep, despite what some people think, a refinish always lowers the value of a gun. Unless the damage sticks out like a sore thumb, just clean it up and leave it alone. Another option is to contact Walther USA in Ft. Smith, AR and see if the will and what the cost is on a factory refinish. I don't know if they offer this service, but it won't hurt to ask. If you just can't live with it and want to do it own your own, you might try just a spot touch up. Clean up the rusty spots. If not too bad or large, you might try touching up those bad spots with cold blue. However, be very careful as most cold blue solutions will dull or even damage the factory blue on the rest of the gun. That depend entirely on what blueing solution and method was originally used. First clean the area with some sort of degreaser. All oil and dirt must be removed from the metal. Ordinary plain alcohol will work. Rinse with cold water and dry thoroughly. DO NOT TOUCH IT WITH YOUR BARE HANDS. Just the oil on your skin is enough to mess it up. Put just a little bit of solution on a Q-tip and apply only to the damaged area. Repeat as needed to match the original finish. When done, apply a good coat of oil to neutralize the solution. Otherwise, the rust will come back. Post some pictures and we can give you much better opinions.

I've never been much for hanging extra stuff on handguns. In all probability, if you have to use it, its gonna be close range and fast. You'll probably just be point shooting anyway. However, I do have one old S&W Model 10 with CT laser grips on it. It came to me with them. I took it to the range to check the zero and guess what? The laser is almost useless in daylight. I had to look hard at the target just to find the dot! I do like the CT setup. Just grab the grip and the laser comes on. Indoors it works just fine. So I now use this as one of my house guns. I'll never carry it, but it works well inside the house.
