The Prepper $2,000 Coronavirus Challenge... how would you spend it?
Wingshooter replied to jgradyc's topic in General Chat
Agree. We have several bicycles, but we also have 2 good horses. The horses will get you off the road but also are more visible -

If nobody is home to bring it, then it’s code brown

There’s a shower near every toilet in my house. Problem solved

I think you’re right about the potential flight restrictions. Airlines will be cutting their schedules as well since bookings have disappeared. I’m a pilot for a major airline, and they’re saying this is like nothing they’ve ever experienced (including 9/11). The economic damage will be severe, but I pray it won’t be crippling to our futures and economy. I’ve had a lot of time off (over a month), but I’m scheduled to work next week. I have elderly parents staying with us right now, and I sure don’t want to drag anything back to them. I think staying away from people for a couple weeks is great advice though. We need to stop the spread

My last gun purchase was a full size 1911. A 1943 model from the CMP Prior to that was a S&W M&P9

That’s awesome. I’ve thought of carrying my own plastic straws to use when I go out there too . FL seems just as bad as CA now with trying to save the environment with paper straws. I sometimes go through 3 of them per drink. It’s so annoying and nasty when a paper straw “gives up” while you’re drinking. Last week, I got some fast food in FL, and they handed me wooden utensils instead of plastic . It’s the new thing in some places and just a small glimpse of the green new deal I guess.

I thought they were too busy trying to manufacture an impeachment, or maybe they need a diversion from that now

Walmart to stop selling .223, 5.56 and handgun ammo

I thought that thing was real until I saw the orange muzzle! -
That’s awesome! Nothing says yum like a flaming bowl of briquettes

So is anyone pre-panic buying yet?
Wingshooter replied to asu174's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Yep. I’ve known a few Apache pilots. All I’ve known were very conservative, and I feel confident none would ever fire on another American. Bad guys in Somalia yes, Americans in USA no. You’d be hard pressed to find any fighter/bomber pilot willing to do this. I imagine It’d be the same with tanks, etc. -
Wow! What an incredible rifle to match an incredible deal. Congrats!

Thanks! I knew there had to be a formula. -

Walmart gets sued if someone falls in the dairy isle, but they’re not going to stop selling cheese. The dairy farmers aren’t going to pay their legal fees. When a business opens it’s doors to the public, it risks suit for almost anything. How does not selling SBR ammo (whatever that is), handgun ammo and asking people to stop OC keep people from suing them? Still doesn’t change a thing. The gun community didn’t do this. A deranged lunatic did. -

I’m really not worked up at all, I was just using a word from the post I quoted. I’m a pretty low-stress guy, lol. Concerned is a better word I guess. I agree with all that about businesses, except I can judge them for what they are when they choose to pick a side.... they are making an anti 2A political statement. Walmart didn’t have to do what they did. They chose to. Just as I can choose not to drop dollars in their registers. I actually stopped going to Walmart’s long ago anyway for several other reasons. -
Thanks. Have you been casting bullets also?

Opinions on an H&R Handi Rifle in .223 for coyote hunting?
Wingshooter replied to Sidewinder's topic in Hunting and Fishing
The coyote won’t notice overkill. Getting killed the 2nd or 3rd time doesn’t matter to him, only the first I’ve only shot mine with a 30-06 while deer hunting. It worked. Now shooter-recoil overkill is valid. Since you have a concern with a surgery, I’d go as light as possible. Suppressed 223 is pretty enjoyable. -

It’s about chipping away at our rights. It doesn’t have anything to do with “hey look at me”. It’s more about the 2A and “shall not be infringed”. It gets some of us worked up because it’s moving the front line closer. Today’s open carry is tomorrow’s CARRY. I personally don’t open carry in public, but it sure is nice knowing that if my T-shirt rides up, I’m still legal. -
Yeah, lol. it’s very easy to do on the ipad.

They don’t, but they’re tired of hearing the whinny-babies cry

NRA-Domestic Terrorist Organization
Wingshooter replied to AuEagle's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I say give them what they want! S&W, Glock, etc. should stop selling to their police force, bodyguards and security teams. Cut them off from anything firearm related. They are begging for it -
Oh geez. Here we go

I’m prepared too, but where’s that line at “enough” ? Lol -

Well, they finally picked a side. Now they can stock pink P.....hats on those empty ammo shelves.
