Not sure if this has been discussed, but just wondering what everyone's prefered setup is for open and/or concealed carry. I am trying to get around to getting my CCW and not sure what I will get to use. Trying to get some input before I just start buying rigs.

I have determined that to be a normal state of affairs. You either move on or live with it. And you can never have too many guns...or tools. Tools are good too.

I saw that and did consider it. Still deciding on it. Sounds like a good option.

I have determined the same thing. The only people I see consistently selling are flippers. One guy locally puts up WTB ads all the time then turns around and flips them. He sucks up any good deals then asks retail price when he sells. I have resorted to Gunbroker at times. More conpetition, but more choice. I still keep an eye out though.

Thanks for the input. Do you know if all the GSG stuff is as good? I had a chance to trade for a hi-cap pistol a while back but passed since I had never seen GSG stuff. It wold have been more of a fun gun than a carry since it was in .22lr and screamed Machine Gun.

I remember my Papaw talking about the tanks in WWII. He drove a fuel and munitions truck (who decided gas and explosives in one place???), but loved the twin cadillac engine tanks. He said they used to do 65mph down the Autobahn. I think he really wanted to be in one, but I don't think he ever "officially" got to.

Well I am striving to be buying out powder and components as soon as I can. Lol

Maybe you haven't shot enough today. Go blow though a couple hundred rounds. It cures what ails ya....

Some of us are able to scrounge a few bucks for ammo easier than time to reload. And we make sure we keep rapid turnover of our supply.

But he has to leave room in his back pocket for that ratty looking hankerchief... Is it even in a holster to keep it from falling out???

I will check it out. I think derailing conversations is my superpower...I just have to learn to use it for good. Lol. So to bring it back on track... You were/are a tanker?

I knew someone was a Python fan around here. Lol

I'll offer to buy all they hoarded.......for $0.03 a round. Lol

Maybe if it had been oak or maple I could have gotten a mill or someone to take it off my hands. I hate to see that much wood go to waste, but no one wants it unless you cut, split and deliver it...then they want it free...

I have to go back and forth across Sam's gap about the time it is supposed to be worst. Great timing...lol

I think that first guy was manning a cannon myself. He crammed some chain, broken swords, rock, and some ham bones left over from dinner last night in and fired away. The "If it will fit, fire away" became the slogan. Of course his real secret weapon was when he decided to put livestock in the catapult..........

I have had a few trees blown over and my insurance was great about fixing the damage. They even covered my riding mower that a limb bounced off of. BUT, they always said the tree was not covered and was my issue to deal with.... Sucks clearing a 3 foot thick Poplar by hand.

Yep I agree, sounds like the same kind of thinking. Next thing he will invent is the recycled beehive round... it will use depleted AA/AAA batteries instead of ball bearings. Or he could go high class and use the CR123 batteries use up in the military optics.

I think I might have found a 2 inch Taurus 94 to fit this role. Just happens, I saw one for sale right at a good price after xtriggerman replied. I will see if I like is as much when I get to handle it. I am still looking at possibly getting a Taurus PT-22 or a Phoenix semi as the semi option for this function. Never hurts to have options and neither of those are expensive. Since this is not my "life or death" gun and will be bounced around in a bag, I am not worried so much with it being the top of the line. Just fun, small, and reasonably reliable. I can see that, I have an affinity for Smith Revolvers....just not the budget most days....

Looks like chainsaw work for someone....

You beat me to it. lol I wonder if the first guy to use a "sabot" just said crap all the bullets I have are too small, let's just wrap something around it to make it fit?

I wonder if the first prototypes with DU in the armor glowed softly lol. It is always easy for the guy in a secure office sitting in a nice soft chair to say "There is no danger from....". What he really means is "There is no danger to ME from...."

So what kind of projectile are they flinging at that speed? I remember something about Depleted Uranium projectiles, but not sure if that was a movie or a real thing.

Ahhhh Well that is not my big skill. Great for you. I guess mine is scrounging. I have a knack for finding things or seeing a new purpose in things. My wife just calls it hoarding. Lol Did you see the short segments they played as commercials during the 1st season of the spinoff?

No concern here. With years in IT, I could not even get it to setup and work on any of my devices. Seems to have issues all around.
