No, but the ACLU and NAACP "guarantee" that one.

Maybe this guy owned it... I can see how he might have had problems reassembling the gun without scratching it way up high on the slide like that.

The reason I was given was because shooting silhouettes was a little too politically incorrect.

True... skimping on anything related to your eyesight or hearing is a dumb way to save money.

First of all, I just can't believe that we're already mid-way into November as I write this. 2007 has blasted right by me it seems. I keep telling myself that I better get a jump on hanging icicle lights on the eaves of the house while there's still a little warm weather to be had. I don't have to light them until after Thanksgiving of course. All of this brings to mind the idea of how much fun it was when I was a kid to sit down with the JC Penny and Sears wishbook catalogs and make out a long list of things that I hoped Santa (or my parents, or the grandparents) would bring me for Christmas. It's a shame that my own kids didn't believe in the jolly fat elf for very long. I guess they grow up faster these days. But I digress... What do you want Santa to bring YOU this year? A new gun? Reloading equipment? Some super tacticool optics for your evil black rifle? Ammo? Maybe some claymores to decorate your lawn like Marswolf does? Let's hear it.

I have a pair of Peltor Tactical 7 electronic muffs that I wear over foamies when I'm shooting indoors, or just wear by themselves out of doors. I like them a lot. Very good alternative to Pro Ears for the money.

I know what you mean, man. It would suck to not be forced to work on a car every weekend, so it's awesome that you have a GM product.

I forget... does the 3rd Gen CamBird have the access panel in the floor board or is it like the 4th Gen where you have to drop the rear axle to get to the pump? I had to do that on my '93 and so began my love-hate affair with that car.

Your wife has good taste.

There is no law against it, but many gun shows require you to have your firearm's action locked open with a zip tie ... usually enforced by someone at the door. I've always assumed that was for a firearm being carried in for trade or sale. I don't expose my carry weapon so I don't let them zip tie it into a useless state.

Welcome, Kat. Make yourself at home and don't hesitate to jump into the conversations!

So this goes down as being one of the most expensive Smith & Wesson firearms that you've never owned... right?

Nice. I shouldn't have told you about those grips before I ordered mine. But now, I can get a left-hand carry rig, steal your Kimber and have a matching pair. Two fistfulls of hot lead!

Disney has his for sale over on TNSpeed. Had you noticed it?

Just received this in email... Smith & Wesson 2007 Holiday Specials M&P and Sigma Pistol $50.00 Rebate Offer SW1911 Classic Carry Offer Model 500 or Model 460 Revolver $99.00 Sigma Offer 1000 Series Shotgun Offer M&P15 or i-Bolt Rifle $99.00 Sigma Offer Locate a Smith & Wesson dealer

Sorry for my lack of response earlier. Didn't see the thread but had way too much on my plate lately to even think about taking you up on the very generous offer. I told Molonlabe to give it a whirl.

Nice. Maybe the .357SIG M&P Compact will be out soon. I kept hearing "End of 2007" as the most official answer on these and it seems that S&W is keeping their word.

Yeah, my old Ruger P89 was a turd. I didn't know any better at the time.

H&K USP 40 full size. Nice gun, just clunky and impossible to conceal with holsters that were available at the time.

Smith & Wesson model 3913 9mm. Not the Lady Smith nor the newer 3913 Tactical. Just a plain jane 3913. It was a perfect little 9mm carry gun. I should have hung on to it.

I've still got that extra Smith & Wesson freebie bag that I can send you if you're not going to turn around and replace it with something better.

Wow... don't know how I missed seeing a new person from New York sign up. Welcome!

Welcome, Georgian. We're always happy to see our neighbors popping in here.
