TGO David

I have handled one of these in a shop once, have been tempted to buy one on more than a few occasions, but never fired one. This brings back that insatiable desire once more.

I know what I want to be doing on April 4th and 5th.

Hey guys, I found a picture from the Florida "Obama Live" event...

His mom took a picture of you and him making an exploded mess?

VOTING IS OPEN!!!

The poll is coming!

Same here.

Free weights every morning. Typically dumbells. I rotate through different major muscle groups, but I do curls, reverse curls and hammer curls every day no matter what. On the days that I am focusing on arms specifically I use heavier weights. On the other days I use lighter weights for those. Crunches every morning. Sometimes in the evening as well. The Doberman and I will be getting our butts out for walks in the evenings now that he's healed up from his surgery. I'm going to give this Cross Fit thing a look. I prefer to only run if I'm making my way to cover.

Nope. I've got a handful of the wadcutter bullets that he reloaded himself. Nothing hollow about them. They are nasty little sons of beeches.

That's sheer genius, Creeky.

Thank God you technically live in LaVergne. We don't need that sort of bad karma down here in Smyrna.

Hickory Hollow is swiftly becoming one of the few places where I would prefer to open carry. And by that I mean my SBR slung across my chest and my 1911 clearly visible on my hip. It was. My parents used to bring us down to Nashville in the 80's for shopping trips. We'd visit Hickory Hollow and then Rivergate. Neither place left me feeling unsafe back then. When I moved to Nashville in 1997, I made the mistake most people make. I moved to Antioch and lived in an apartment. My lease couldn't have been up fast enough. Our building was OK but that's because we had two Metro PD officers who lived in it and who parked their cruisers outside. All of the other buildings around us had "issues". The area has gone to complete and utter crap since then and I only go there now during daylight hours and refuse to go anywhere near it during the Christmas holidays. But... but... these are just hard working people trying to make it in this world!

Curve 8330 on Verizon here. Flawless. Absolutely flawless.

My two pumpkins for this year... #1) Chomp Chomp #2) Zombie Pumpkin I want to put a small plate with some dry ice inside the first one so that it bellows smoke from it's mouth. We'll see how that works out. The second one is my first attempt ever at "sculpting" a pumpkin and I used the face from one of the Zombie Targets for the template. I may need to shave some more of the pumpkin's meat out of the face to let more light through. I'll wait until Halloween before I do that though. I will try to take some better pictures tonight with my DSLR. These were hand-held shots using my wife's point and shoot.

I am going to extend the deadline for submissions to Midnight tonight (10/29/08) so that those who forgot to include a night-time shot can submit one. This also gives a few of you who were thinking that the deadline was midnight tonight a chance to get your pumpkin squared away and submitted. Thanks.

Guys, I am removing all of the off-topic remarks from this thread. Thread-drift is unnecessary in topical threads of this nature and serve only to erode the value of the thread itself. Please keep that in mind going forward. Thanks.

I'll PayPal you the $20 for the grips. By the time she gets around to being able to carry it, the nursing home won't allow her to have it.

http://stores.homestead.com/Laruetactical/Detail.bok?no=33 I've had good luck running my American Defense Manufacturing mount on my Aimpoint Comp ML3 and the return to zero has been within 1-click the times that I have removed it. Unfortunately they don't offer a mount for the EOTech but LaRue does (see above). Unfortunately it may be a bit of an issue getting a budget concious department to buy and distribute them to anyone with an AR15 in their cruiser.

Thanks for sharing this. That's pretty much the same way my grandfather showed me to lube the 1911 and it's worked for me for about 10 years now and for him for God knows how long before that.

Aside from the TGO contest that we're running, everyone else might want to show off their Halloween decorations, pumpkins, costumes, traps for catching pranksters, etc. Feel free to use this thread to do it.

That's a nice paint job but unfortunately it doesn't fit into the guidelines for participating in the contest. Maybe start another thread to just show off everyone's pumpkins, even those not in the contest.

That guy needs a few broken ribs. And by a few broken ribs I mean pretty much all of them, from being thrown through some walls.

Raven usually makes good stuff, but this thing... this thing is stupid.

Many thanks!
