TGO David

Yes, but I am waiting on confirmation before I make a large-scale announcement of where we are. The event is still ON and it's actually taking on a very polished presence as both Outpost and Barrett are putting quite a bit of money and resources into it. I hope to have THE formal announcement available by this time next week.

I have added a photos section to the site... Mid-South Guns And Gear Expo - Photos Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks, and I'm sure I will occasionally be able to wrestle the truck back. I make it sound worse than it really is; I actually prefer that she drive the F250 to and from work because it puts that much more steel between her and the morons in Nashville traffic. She couldn't drive the manual transmission Acura, so I never could "borrow" the truck on days that I needed to haul things around. Now I can. Will do. It needs a good detailing, which will happen as soon as the weather cooperates. I never let the dealerships detail my cars if I have a say in it.

The problem with sub-compact guns like the XD "SC", the M&P C, the Glock 26/27 is not the fact that the grips cannot be extended. They can, as you have noticed. The problem is that you will eventually and inevitably pinch the living @#*! out of your hand when you do a mag change under pressure because of the small grip. It isn't pleasant.

Actually, "bring backs" were pretty popular in that era as trophies of war.

So does my wife. I get conjugal visits with the truck now when it needs fuel or washed.

You have a PM. Take it to heart.

Truck is staying.

You're treading on thin ice.

Signed the papers tonight. We now own 16 spark plugs and a four-door plug carrier.

My PMags all run OS-X. Thank you, thank you! I'm here all week folks!

Yep. Coppa Smurf. Brother of Pappa Smurf, uncle to Coppa Feel.

Only the smurfy ones that have no arms or legs, and hover about 5' off the ground!

We'll do our best to make it, but Sept and Oct are going to be crazy-busy for me with the TGO / Outpost / Barrett event breathing down on me.

As absurd as this sounds, I kind of like the idea of the blue B27 targets as it makes it a little easier to see your hits.

Under which of the dozen or so user names that you signed up with here?

Perhaps what we need is someone to co-admin the USGO site; someone who has the free time to try and grow it into something active.

Hornet Handler (member here) had a rental up in Colorado last winter. Said the AWD version of it got him anywhere and everywhere he needed to go in the snow.

Those are even tackier. As evidenced above. Seriously not the sort of positive message a gun owner should want to convey.

Agreed.

I'd kill myself on a motorcycle faster than you could get it from 0-60.

People. People irritate me.

You're worrying too much about what everyone else is going to think. Observe the four cardinal rules that Hexhead posted (see above) and whatever other rules are particular to the range you choose to shoot at. Most ranges have staff who will be happy to introduce you to shooting. You aren't the first new guy on the range and certainly won't be the last. Just go out there, be safe, and enjoy yourself.

If your car needs it.

Drive faster, gramps!
