  1. Well... so they are showing up in stores now. How much was it? If you don't mind me asking.
  2. And you should be thankful that there are people you can still make fun of for being short. Like 6 year olds. You can make fun of them because they are (usually) shorter than you. Now quick ****ing up my wife's thread.
  3. I am looking at a product that replaces the classifieds section completely but until I decide whether it is really going to be good for the forum or not, we're stuck with post and search.
  4. I'm laughing at you HA HA! </anime voice>
  5. Yep... sorry, I'm covered up this evening or I'd have searched them out too. Didn't mean to come across short in my last reply.
  6. My wife's not happy that you somehow scored the pink grips before we did... but she said to pass along that she at least will be able to legally carry hers before you can.
  7. This has been discussed before. Search?
  8. I am posting this thread with Eddie's blessing. Some of you may have noticed that a few of the moderators "wore" pink avatars a few weeks ago. The avatars were in honor of Misty and were worn on the day of her memorial service in tribute to her. Eddie had respectfully requested that we keep news of Misty's untimely passing out of the public areas of TGO so that he could have time to process this privately. Thus the delay in the news being posted here.
  9. Remembering Misty Mickle (Redhead 1911) February 10, 1985 - May 23, 2008 It is with a heavy heart that I must let you all know of the untimely passing of one of our members. Misty Mickle (aka Redhead 1911) unexpectedly passed away on Thursday, May 23rd 2008. She was laid to rest Tuesday, May 27th. Many of you knew Misty as the wife of Eddie Mickle, or MolonlabeTN, the co-administrator here on TGO. Some of you may have met her at any one of the various middle Tennessee TGO get togethers. Or you may have met her just a few weeks ago at Hero Gear in Winchester, Tennessee where she had happily pitched in to help behind the counter during their big 5.11 sale. Misty's red hair, bubbly personality and brilliant sense of humor made her impossible to miss in a crowd. Talking with her was always a pleasure and she seemed to have that certain gift that made you feel as though you had known her forever within just a few minutes of meeting her. At times like this, we often find ourselves searching for the right words to express both our sadness and at the same time our love and support to those who were left behind. In this case, I've had several days now to try to think of the right things to say to Eddie and continue to come up short. I suspect many of you will be in the same predicament. Rather than stumble through an elaborate expression of sympathy, I feel it best to simply say this: Misty... you will be missed. What this world has lost, Heaven has truly gained. Eddie... you are loved, you are not alone, and we all stand behind you. You have our thoughts, our prayers and our support. We are requesting that TGO members who wish to voice their sympathies simply do so in this thread rather than contact Eddie directly at this time. Thank you. Misty's Myspace as also being turned into a memorial by Eddie: http://www.myspace.com/mistyseddie
  10. Let's let sleeping golden retrievers lie... /thread
  11. Wow... I thought the computer was a little higher off the ground than this.
  12. I never used to believe the conspiracy theorists until McCain became the GOP's man of the hour. When that happened, I started to wonder if THEY were really right and that some secret backroom organization planted McCain as the GOP candidate to make sure that the DNC gets control of the White House in 2008. It sure would go a long way to explaining why Fred Thompson suddenly dropped out of the race before he ever even got started. I still think someone must have blackmailed him out of the race.
  13. Hide it. Let her catch you carrying it some day.
  14. Folks it looks like we will have the official OK from the fine folks at Owl Hollow Gun Club for us to grill burgers and hot dogs on site for the June 21st meet & shoot. I will pick up a few bulk packs of hamburgers and hot dogs from SAMS, but we will need some volunteers to bring other things. If you can help, please respond with what you can bring from this list: Burgers / Hot Dogs -- Tungsten Portable charcoal or gas grill -- TheMark712 Charcoal -- Musicman Hamburger buns -- Junglist Hotdog buns -- Junglist Lettuce, onions, and tomatoes -- EasilyObsessed Cheese Slices -- Tungsten Ketchup, Mustard -- DWRD Chips / Doritos -- Molonlabetn? Paper plates -- Tungsten Paper napkins -- Tungsten Soft drinks Bottled water -- HanSolo, Tokarev Coolers full of ice (need several of these I'm sure) -- HanSolo, Tokarev Packaged cookies / brownies / snacks -- JasonF, Tokarev I think it is only fitting that we provide lunch to any OHGC member who is on site that day as a way of saying Thank You for their generosity in allowing us to have our meet there. So if several people volunteer to bring duplicate items, that would be fine. As people volunteer, I will mark items off of the list and put names next to them. If no one has a portable grill, I will do my best to find a charcoal grill that we can use for this. Unfortunately my gas grill is anchored to our deck, so I can't bring it. Thanks in advance!
  15. Quoted for truth! That's why capitalism rocks. There are hundreds of different handgun options out there.
  16. Update again... We've been really busy the past few weeks so I haven't gotten around to painting the factory grips on Mrs. Tungsten's #642 yet. But that may have turned out to our advantage as I just got off of a call to Smith & Wesson and ordered a pair of the factory pink rubber grips. The rep I spoke to said that they were down to just a few of them left so I'm glad I called. I mentioned that they could sell a ton of those grips if they'd start producing them again and advertise them on their site, and he agreed that it was worth mentioning to the sales manager. He also stated that the Julie Goloski edition M&P 9mm was finally shipping out to distributors and retailers. Anyway, here's what the pink J-Frame grips look like:
  17. We took the last step toward getting my wife's HCP today... fingerprinting! So the clock should officially start ticking tomorrow, assuming the the Cogent Systems place uploads all of their prints at the end of each day.
  18. HK uses roll pins in the backstraps of the P2000 and new P30 and HK45 handguns. They do not provide the punch for them either. I fail to see why this is such a shortcoming. Sure, they could but manufacturers have to draw the line somewhere and assume that the buyer will take on the immense burden of providing their own hand tools.
  19. You and my wife are in a similar predicament. For the time being she has opted for a Smith & Wesson J-Frame revolver (#642 in .38spl) and a Don Hume slide holster that she can wear on her hip. The holster rides very high on the belt, so it will hide beneath a slightly looser t-shirt or untucked overshirt with ease. That's really the best option we've come up with for her so far and she's pretty much your size.
  20. Yeah, I am going to try to get a speedloader before the class also. I've been meaning to buy an UPLULA for a while now.
  21. Considering that they have been backordered for about a year... maybe two? No, that's pretty quick compared to that.
  22. I think I saw an add-on that allowed you to "subscribe" to posts by a member. I'll check and see if I can find it again.
  23. Suresight has been plagued by inability to deliver product. If the Advantage sights ship fast enough, they will bury Suresight on that premise alone.
  24. Looks like a copy of these... http://www.suresight.com/
