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

So Who Else Had Storm Damage From Last Night?

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.
-
Anyone have experience with the Taurus PT-22?
-
Well hopefully you would find a pilot because no one is qualified in the group that I know of. You might be able to fake your way through with a small Cessna if you had some basic knowledge. Though streaking some missiles into Savior central command would be satisfying. If they could find some bombs like the drop from planes (no idea on the real name for them) , then driving them in the back of a truck and detonating them would do a good job too.

What if one of your kids took one of THESE to school . . . . ?
Ronald_55 replied to ZoidMeister's topic in General Chat
We were allowed to carry pocket knives, but they had to be under a certain blade size. Also, I could have pointed out 10 cars will guns in them at school and we never had an incident. If it came to violence between students it rarely was more than a few punches. But, most of us grew up being trained that guns and knives were tools to be respected. -
I just wonder since they are like 10 miles away from DC, why they have not just ran over there. At the very least to loot some stuff. The Naval yard is close, plus who knows how many troops ended up there to defend the Pentagon and White House. That is a lot of guns, armament, and ammo that could be lying around. I mean if a whole carnival of weapon carrying walkers is just sitting around in the middle of no where, what is in the other places? I think they may be avoiding DC so that the show does not have to CGI or build the well known buildings. I kind of feel like part of the stuff they are doing is to keep the budget down and maybe squeeze out a few more seasons' worth of contract.
-
I agree the show is sliding. They make too many stupid decisions. Like not just luring the carnival walkers to the fence to off a few at a time. I am not sure I want to see them on the road again. I think civilization is too far gone for a "cure"

Ronald_55 replied to ZoidMeister's topic in General Chat
It is amazing how a lot of people are not aware of things in plain sight. I have a SUV. I might look at putting one just inside the back of the liftgate. Would be out of reach, but would be a secondary weapon. Looks like that could be adapted for any AR or a shotgun. -
I have a "My Attachements" question . . .

If you like dropbox, look at box.com. I think you can link to an image. -

Looks like a nice setup. Is it very visible from the outside? -

Is that right over your head or over the back rows? -
Truck carry Where to hide a handgun

A few ideas This is not permanent http://www.earthquakestore.com/holsters.php This one belts around the seat. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=http://www.gunauction.com/search/displayitem.cfm%3Fitemnum%3D4534030&ved=0ahUKEwi3n-ixl73SAhWBSyYKHdwkAWsQFggkMAI&usg=AFQjCNFLHco12dlwehtRk23UoeRF8yP5Qg&sig2=A-kr7UibyL7wkyL_jDwNfg These just clip into dash I think this one screws in. Most of these are more visible than in the console, but more accessible. And just for fun
