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"

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
Ronald_55 replied to Ray Z's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
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 -
Thanks for all the input guys. Keep it coming. I have not made up my mind yet. I will take a look at the 22PLY. I am not sure I have seen it.

How do you know when it's overscoped?
Ronald_55 replied to Sam1's topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
I bet he can shoot the wings off of flies with that. We should put the BB Gun pic out as the "New Deadly Sniper Setup" -
I have a feeling none of the Old West gun fighters lubed their holsters and I bet a lot of them never wore one out in their life. They had a lot more on the line on a daily basis too.

Good Work. So what rifle are we looking at?

1913 scope mount to camera tripod mount?
Ronald_55 replied to TerryW's topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
Would this do it? Vortex Picatinny Rail Tripod Adapter Mount https://www.amazon.com/Vortex-Picatinny-Tripod-Adapter-Mount/dp/B000FSGHZ4 Ore you could always just go this route and have both the scope and gun on the tripod. lol -
I know a Kel-Tec I have will not let a mag load without pushing the mag release, but never seen the other safety.

Maybe it is all innuendo about lubing up to holster your gun......

Someone has been watching the Shooter series on TV... I have a 3-9x40 on my Marlin 60 .22. I figure if you are gonna get good, you better be challenged. -
I would like to have a .22lr to plink, but the end game thought on this is to be a "just in case" bag gun. I wanted a short barrel because I need to keep my bag small and if I use the bag, it will need to be concealable. I know I could use a .38 or .357 for this, but weight is a factor and I want to carry a decent number of rounds too. I also know that this sort of gun role is usually filled by cheap little models, but if I need it, I want it reliable. Also why I want a revolver. That being said, I don't want a $600 revolver languishing in a bag in the back of my car. I know, I want it all and I want it cheap. Us poor guys have needs too. lol

I am wanting to pick up a .22LR pistol. I would prefer to go with a 3 inch or less revolver. I am having a hard time finding one that is not a RG (or similar quality ), a H&R (or similar) antique, or just as expensive as a .38. I also want to avoid the mini revolvers like the NAA models. I may have to settle for a semi, but thought I would ask first. So any suggested models? Just in case if you have a recommendation for a semi, toss it in too. Thanks guys and gals.

Me too because I read your repost of it. Never felt the desire to put a chemical burning agent anywhere close to my boxer briefs

Trader's / Seller' remorse . . . . is it real?
Ronald_55 replied to ZoidMeister's topic in General Chat
This is precisely why I buy, but do not sell guns. Well that and the fact that I have not reached anywhere close to critical mass of my "armory." Also allows me to not worry about who ended up with a gun that has my name stamped on it via a background check. -
I agree that it is too soon for a crazy slide in language and social skills on a mass level. Even 5 years would be too soon unles you had something like all kids that had no caregivers to socialize them.. Maybe it is an act to give away as little info as possible? Yeah they are in Virginia. Not as gun friendly in some areas as GA, but still should be lots of old shotguns, hunting rifles, and .22s lying around. Ammo might be an issue, but h3ll you can make a gun out of 2 pieces of pipe and a nail. They should be able to come up with something. Why not manufacture guns instead of trash piles and wire cats? Yeah, I have thought of that too. No one is riding around in a big Escalade or Range Rover. My only thought is that they pick older cars that are easier to work on. Pre-computer vehicles that use a carb and cables to run things. That would be a little smart. Though maintaining the body with some paint would help their longevity. One thing that bothered me in the scene where the Kingdom is giving their stuff to the Savior group is that part of the stuff was car batteries. If this has been a couple or 3 years, most batteries sitting there in cars would be bad by now. Plus the Saviors do not seem to have a large warehouse stock of stuff they are maintaining. The only other option is that they are pulling the lead for reloading. That might be ok, though it is much more deadly than using wheel weights. With all the stuff lying around all groups seem to do very limited collect and catalog. Having teams looking for stuff like spare car parts to pull and log in a warehouse would be my plan after the immediate needs of food and shelter are met. Collect things like reloading supplies, building material (nails and screws), copper wire (for wire use and to use as a copper source), and any other category you can thing of. Plus with Alexandria seeming to have a good supply of electricity, you could bring in stuff to set up a machine shop, a commercial kitchen (cooking is large batches is far less wasteful), textile manufacturing, and etc. Call me a hoarder, but in that world no one is going to be making certain things again for a long time. The longer things go on the more trade value some things will have. Even things as crazy as old skin mags would have a value since the supply was limited. Also, all these dead cars would be a great source of oil. Either to use as oil or as a fuel. Just pull the oil plug and drain them. Load it into 55gal barrels and store it in a safe spot. But, especially in Alexandria, these people seem to spend a lot of time doing nothing. Even the kids could pitch in with things like collecting aluminum and steel cans to be melted down as a raw material.
