1. NRA emails - Recently it seems that for every email that I unsubscribe, I get another that's crazier than the previous email. Today it was the NRA Wine Club. JEEZ! :( please stop it 2. Those idiot public works employees on I240. Instead of putting out cones to divert traffic while they repair pot holes. These idiots stand on the side of the interstate three our four at a time with shovels of filler. The minute that there is a break in traffic they run out into the interstate, throw the filler into the hole and then make a mad dash back to the side of the road. This is something that I would expect to see in China, Ethiopia or South Korea. This drives me nuts every time that I see this crap.

That is insanely fast. I usually average about 5-10 mins every time that I purchase. That's fast enough for me.

I'm not attempting to be a butt hole, but it doesn't matter if the were old or not. The mags are government property.

All humans do that. One thing that I learned early on as a MP was that some young people resent authority figures. Young warriors REALLY resent authority figures. It goes with the job. I never had issues with the troops when I was on patrol rotation ( I had enough time in the field that I should have signed on to be 11B) because I have had a lifelong habit of treating people how I want to be treated.

I try not to think about it. SS is legalized pimping.

I agree with you, but the Republicans are not without blame. They are all in this shell game together and the American public is the recipient of the crap soup that they are serving. Good point. I say "Cut Everything" in the sense that the only way that the government will look at budget cuts objectively is if everything is on the table. No, I really do not believe that the elderly, poor or veterans should suffer because of stupid politicians. I do believe that as long as some politicians can protect their sacred cows, the needed budget cuts won't be reasonably done.

As far as I can remember, every MOS had its fair share of sh#tbox troops. There are a lot of sad stories of troops having no honor or respect for their uniform and country. Sadly these jack wads were in my beloved MP CORP. I hope that they get nuked to set an example for the next thief.

CUT EVERYTHING!

Smucker and any other company that wants a PILOT from Memphis will continue to get one. The Pinnacle move was about cost cutting. There is no other way they give up their sweetheart deal that the city provided.

The Memphis City Council approved another PILOT for Smucker Company. Wherever the council stops approving PILOTs, Memphis is going to dry up so fast that it's going to wish that it were the thriving metropolis of Detroit. The jobs that these companies provide don't benefit the city, because very few of their employees live in or shop in Memphis. I guess the council just wants to say that they are bringing jobs to the area.

Touché.

I was looking for a can of Gunblaster to clean my HK MP5-22 when I found six G19 magazines that I forgot that I had purchased. Big smile! I'm in really good shape with G19 mags now.

I hope that people learned from voting for the lesser of two evils in 2012.

I've been a Magpul whore for several years now. The only other mags that I've owned came with my ARs and were sold or given away. They already had my money locked up.

Guns and Ammo on Summer Ave in Memphis

I agree. Also, I don't believe that most citizens support antigun legislation. I do believe that because some people don't care for or own guns that they don't pay much attention or don't care about antigun legislation because it doesn't affect them. This apathy allows the politicians to only have to fight against a smaller group. Por exemplo: None gun owners agree that 30rd mags are overkill. Why, because they don't use them. I didn't pay attention to legislation against cigarette companies because I don't smoke. We have no problems with anti saggings laws because we are adults and don't wear our pants under our asses. I'm not attempting to justify not paying attention when the government attempts to strongarm its citizens. I'm simply throwing out some examples. In my opinion, antigun measures are not getting a lot of support from ordinary non-gun owning citizens, but neither are pro gun measures. The reasons can be found in some of these post. Instead of reasonably informing the uninformed, we do the same things as the gun snatchers and start the emotion based name calling. Calling people names because they don't understand or agree with you does little to gain their support. I believe that this war can be won even with the apathetic sitting on the sidelines, but you want them sitting on the sidelines on our side with a clear understanding of where we stand as opposed to on the sidelines because the antigun side ran a better emotion driven campaign. Just my opinion. That and $3.19 will get you a gallon of gas.

I have one. I haven't put a lot of rounds thru it, but it is very accurate. I don't have any complaints. It looks and feels better than the Walther that it replaced. Nice gun to have at the range for the kids. Saves on ammo cost.

swim615 is a solid guy.

I'll leave this feat to the young guys. Makes me sick just to think about drinking that Vodka.

I'll bet that their pistols weren't real. That was like watching The Three Stooges except they were five buttholes.

Welcome to TGO.

I can't remember the exact day or year, but I got my permit when the legendary Jack Owens was Sheriff of Shelby County. They were yellow cards like the deputies I.D cards. Owens had so much clout that many officers would become nice to you after they saw your permit. Something I wondered about the data base that the CA publishes. A year or so ago the site showed that I had only been a permit holder since 2008 and lately it doesn't pull up my name at all. Is 2008 the year that the state took over issuing permits?

Congratulations on the views.

It gets deeper by the day.
