  1. Well since I have only had the AK 2 weeks, I feel kind of good about having 12. I did try to buy a second 10 pack off the guy I got 10 of them from, but he only had one pack. I will be picking up more as I find good deals. I just end up having so little time even at home to load and work on them that I am still toying with this idea. Be nicer to use tgat time at the range.
  2. Drive that to the mailbox and watch your neighbors react.
  3. Pay the man at the door... lol Wonder what kind of permits you need to have one?
  4. Less about ease...more about speed.... but after reloading 10 mags at least twice each those thumbs do get a little tired...
  5. Yes, that kind of tank! https://www.atlanticfirearms.com/component/virtuemart/featured-not-published/fv-433-abbot-l109-self-propelled-105mm-detail.html?Itemid=0
  6. Looking at AK mag speed loaders.I have a Maglula for my pistol caliber stuff, but wanting a little more speed here. I see the Caldwell® AK Mag Charger for one. Anyone got this one or another one you love? Thanks
  7. 56 If it included a train you would have all the parts of a country song. lmao. Glad you came out good at the other end of it. Crazy Ex's are the worst. I had one that kept calling my Mom to tell her crazy stuff behind my back for years and we only dated 4 months. Lol
  8. Bobby I think he may have found a holster by now since that post is from 2007.......
  9. Good to hear hopefully it goes up from here
  10. I might have been talked out of it until I held it. Nice feeling piece. I like the short barrel, I guess because my Papaw had a shiny S&W snub nose .357 when I was little. It was iconic to me, seeing it on his duty belt. If I could only shoot 1/2 as good as him. I might try to find a good deal on a longer barrel at some point though.
  11. Sounds like you guys have a race to see who picks it up first. Lol
  12. He happened to be coming to JC.
  13. Ninja pistol class.... I love how one is always in the line of fire of the others.And that stance at the end when they are shooting right next to each other's heads.... The girl in black looks 15...
  14. Over at the Dan Wesson forum I am told this is a Model 14-2 made in 1980. The grips are not original. They should be wooden. Hope to get to shoot these soon.
  15. Better have a good dress belt and a long jacket lol
  16. So did I miss what you finally decided on. Do you like it after using it?
  17. That is why I mail order whatever I can. No disappearing salespeople to deal with. The HazMat fee is as much as the powder is though.
  18. Tell him I send well wishes. He is a good guy.
  19. I have no real idea. I have let my wife deal with this in the past since she is the social media person. That was our agreement since I am "too crtical". Now that I have the surveilance app up, I can see her Snapchat notifications, but not messages. 100% boys. Having a serious discussion with my wife about the need to kill her access. My wife has access to all her other apps and logins. The problem with my wife is my daughter screams something mean and she gets upset. I could care less. She can hate me if she wants. I am her parent not her friend. It used to be so much simpler when you could shoot the boy you caught crawling in your daughter's window. Now they come right on in digitally. There is no footprint because a lot of these kids seemed to have stopped Facebook and other outlets that can be checked. I am usually d@mn good at tracking people down otherwise. Some days I realize I should have just grown old alone.
  20. A couple things that got into my hand this week. At least something went ok. A Dan Wesson. 357 Model 14. Or at least I think from the fixed front and rear sight. Trying to gauge the age, but not sure yet. Is probably in the early 80's. Got the barrel wrench and a leather holster too. I may look for more barrels. A Smith & Wesson Model 1905 2nd Change .38 Special/Service Cartridge in Nickle. Worn, but action feels smooth. Goes along with my blue 4th Change.
  21. At this point I cannot prove who provided it except for an Instagram message she send telling whoever that I found the phone. It easily could be another high school kid. The name does not connect up with anyone we know of and it not a normal contact for her in Instagram. The phone could also be a used purchase, so no way to tie it to anyone. The SIM has been removed and she was Googling how to buy one. My wife also is basically telling me to let her handle it. That will not fly if I do find out this person is 18. We use android and the app we have had on it does great, but does not catch sent messages and such. That is the reason for the new app. It seems not to be working, so I have to get her phone and work on it. My wife made the mistake of telling her all it can see. I just wanted her to think it was another time control option. I do IT and I see all the crap that kids put out there even though I don't do social media. I think all kids should be blocked from it for lots of reasons. One girl on her cheer sqad got suspended for sexting in 6th grade and a girl she used to cheer with got suspended this year. This last one must have been huge due to the amount of time. That girl's mom is a local celebrity and her and her sis are pagent winners. No way that did not hurt her reputation. Up until recently my wife thought she had it all under control with the way she had it. Up until we swapped to T-Mobile she had a slider dumb phone. My wife decided to give her a smartphone when she set up the plan. Of course short of actually blocking the camera like you said, even a dumb phone can text. One question for you. I have been reading that you can retrieve snap chat pics from a phone by digging into a system directory and renaming files. Any idea on that?
  22. So these only woek while ther are on wifi? Her phone has data, so she often uses it instead of our Wi-Fi. At least until data runs out. How do you like the app and online access? Is there a monthly fee for it?
  23. I have toyed with the idea of cameras for a while. My kids end up depending a few hours alone at home a week after school due to schedules. My daughter spends more by herself than when my son is there. A recent incident has caused me to kick that research into high gear. I have looked at several on all price ranges. So far I am not sold on any. Here are the specs I know I want so far: Must interface online I prefer wired power even though it is less conenient. Recharging batteries sound like a recipe for disaster with my memory. Video interface could be wireless or wired. If I have to wire power, then video cable is not much additional. Prefer some type of low light feature and quality better than those grainly liquor store pics you see on the news. Must be able to text or email or notify via app when a camera is triggered. Motion detection is the most probable trigger. Would like if multiple people can be alerted at once. Live video view would be nice too. I would like if I had a decent amount of time to review recordings. Some online services only keep a short time unless you manually download the video. Dual recording to a local DVR and online would be great. At least one camera may be mored for an overview without triggers. I have also looked at home brewing this with a linux setup called ZoneMinder that accepts pretty much any camera, but I would prefer not to have to build it from scratch. That normally ends up frustrating the lady of the house because wants just click and view type access with no vpns, no laptop/desktop only access, and not having me to have to get her the video. I would like to avoid something like Comcast/xfinity service to do it. They just resell someone else's solution at a markup anyway. Needs to be affordable. I want maybe 4 cameras. I can't sink $5000 into this even if a system like that would do everything I could ever want and more. If you have read this far, this is less for a security system and more for surveillance. The incident above involved my teen daughter. We are having to clamp down even more on her online access due to disrespecting our rules. We have a time limiting app on her phone that does a small amount of security and app control. We just put a full fledged surveilance app on her phone due to catching her in several lies involving an 18 year old (she is 14). The next day she had a boy/man (age unknown) drop her off a second phone that we would not have access to review. That screams volumes about that person's intentions. We have been more than fair even though we are stricter than some of the "fun" parents her friends have. Of course those parents would pretty much hand their kid a bag of weed, a bottle of liquor, and a box of condoms and call themselves great parents. My wife is at her wits end but has been taking care of this because she says I go overboard. My thoughts on it are a lot harsher for her and this person especially if they are 18 or over. I just miss my little girl that actually seemed to care what we thought. On an upside, I now have a factory reset iPhone 5 that I doubt anyone is gonna claim. Thanks in advance. Maybe you guys can help me from pulling out the rest of my hair. Lol
  24. You have to coordinate with local emergency departments, but the box is not too bad. You just put a gate key in it. They use their master key to get your key out.
  25. My Dad approves of this joke
