Man, I can't believe anyone likes Nancy Van Camp. She is as flaky as a snowstorm, and that's just the impression I've gotten from watching / listening to her on TV!!! Anytime Mr. Tim isn't doing the weather, I turn over to another channel.

I'm assuming that congratulations rather than consolation are in order. So... congrats!

Excellent. The guy who did the logo does good work! :D

I just googled this "Vince Offer" (Shamwow / Love my nuts) guy and found a PR Newswire hit detailing his destruction-by and fight-against the Church of Scientology. After reading it, I have respect for the guy.

If the spring were weak, it wouldn't have any problem locking back. If the spring were too strong or the ammo charge too light, that might prevent the slide from fully cycling and locking back.

Someone should just go out to the facility and start shooting. When the owner shows up, ask him what the deal is.

FWIW... I believe that The Outpost restaurant is owned by none other than Mrs. Barrett, wife of Ronnie Barrett. If they are in any way connected to the gun shop... it's going to kick all sorts of ass.

Ggun has been given a temporary 30 day ban from the TGO community. If he comes back and continues to treat others rudely, he will be removed permanently. No more strikes. Just one more screw-up and gone forever. Apologies to all whom he has been a jerk toward.

Are you limp wristing the gun?

Have you searched the existing threads on this subject? I'm not trying to kill this discussion, but I know we've had them here plenty of times before.

Congrats. I loved my 3913 and am envious of my wife's 3914.

I think we'll stick to forums about firearms and such.

You were laid off from writing greetings at Hallmark weren't you?

Thanks. We just got a deal with Disney opposite Hannah Montana. It may sound like self denigration, but it's all part of my master plan to get me within shootin' distance of Billy Ray Cyrus. He still needs to pay for the 1990's and the Achy Breaky dance.

You sir, are a decorating genius.

If I were to buy another right now, I'd opt for the open design with the replaceable light pipes. I really liked it. No snags to speak of, but I always carry my firearms in holsters. Edited to add... If you are going to carry it, ever, I would go for the Tru-Glo sights so that you have a tritium light source to back up the fiber optic. I'm not a fan of fiber optic sights for carry purposes, but the Tru-Glo is a nice design.

I really need to do a ride-along with you one of these days. I've got a few neighbors I'd help you shoot. But seriously... a ride-along would ROCK. (PM me more about this unruly neighbor. I like to know who the knife-wielding assclowns on my street are.)

I'm sorry to hear this. Knock their dust off of your shoes and start heading toward the next bigger, better thing.

Am I happy to see this or is that just a suppressor in my pocket?

Shooting from a moving vehicle in our beloved Smyrna?!? We never had problems like this until Dunkin Donuts came to town.

I had the open style on my XD Tactical 9mm and had no problems out of it. If you remove the fiber rod from the sight blade before you clean the gun, you don't have to worry about solvents ruining the light transmission qualities of the rod. The sight came with several interchangeable rods, also. Two red, two green and one solid white. In the past I had the enclosed style on my previous M&P 40. It wasn't as bright as the open style, but it held up fine against cleaning solvents and abuse. Installing either of these should ideally be done with a sight press. You can get by with a delrin drift punch if you're careful. Accuracy will be about the same as what you have with your factory sights. Hi-Viz generally machines their sight blades to be the same height as OEM.

As the old saying goes... when in doubt, there is no doubt. Your employer basically told you to start looking because very soon you're going to get your official notice. Consider it a professional courtesy and get humping on finding another job. I know you're already in this mindset but I'm just throwing it out there in vague generalities in case anyone else may find themselves in similar circumstances soon and happen across this thread. Employers don't warn you in vague terms about layoffs unless they are trying to "tell you without telling you" that something is about to happen. Hang in there man.

FWIW, I use Comcast at home and have turned off all of the anti-spam settings in my Comcast mail account and still don't get TGO notices when I tell the forum to send them to my Comcast address. My gmail address always works. Comcast's email filtering is draconian. There are too many good, free email alternatives out there for someone to seriously consider wasting their time trying to twiddle with the Comcast settings. Then again, some people love a challenge and would try to ice skate uphill.

Maybe call them up?

Now is the time for us all to commence "Sharing In Our Success" ... Who wants to go first?
