  1. l :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
  2. I am amazed that someone has yet to do something with Tannerite stupid enough to get it banned. It's coming.
  3. It's up to you, but I'd say you're there based on your criteria.   My plinking load is a 55 grain FMJBT Hornady loaded with CCI #400 primers and a max dose of IMR 4320. I figure there are better powders, but this one works great, fills the case up to the neck, is reasonable accurate, and provides 100% reliability in all my rifles. It is also widely available while other powders are hard to find at times.   I find a good crimp, while not necessary in my opinion, helps slightly with accuracy. It'll also lessen the chance of bullet setback, however, I've never had a problem with that while not crimping.   Accuracy loads are a whole 'nuther matter. :cool:
  4. Get that thing checkered and you'll have a jewel for sure! I love it.
  5. Have a truck drive who knows how to spread gavel with his truck bring some "crusher run" from the local rock quarry. You can fix some minor errors with a shovel and rake. As you drive on this, and as it rains, the dust in the crusher run gravel causes it to compact and get really hard. It makes a much better driveway than the 3/4" rock a lot of people use.   If you are having drainage problems with your long driveway, you really need access to a tractor and box scraper. Honestly, maintaining your own place out in the country takes a bit of money.
  6. Just as pretty as any other Glock I've seen. :surrender:
  7. I'd be suspect of your chronograph. I don't believe there's any way whatsoever that a crimp could cause what you've described.   I do not own a chronograph, but the only difference I've noticed when crimping is a slight edge in accuracy with some loads.   I've never seen a significant point of impact change between crimped and non crimped loads that were otherwise similar.   Were you shooting a target? Where were your bullets hitting? Were you getting a decent group?
  8. Nothing better than a good wife. Congratulations. We'll be celebrating 20 years in June. Man, how the time flies.
  9. I knew God has a sense of humor! :up:
  10. Thin the washer with a sanding block.
  11. PSA stuff is of good quality.
  12. What;s he looking to spend?   I agree with Garufa. I've yet to buy anything from PSA that I wasn't pleased with.
  13. Yeah.....that's how she liked it.
  14. I don't know a lot about it, but my wife doesn't seem happy with the arrangement.
  15. I believe he oversees at least part of the Dell debacle now.
  16. Even if I forget my carry gun, my wife always has hers.     The last time I was in St. Louis, I carried a 380 and was quite glad I had it. Today, I would feel woefully under armed there with a 380.
  17. Cool. I know a guy named Harold who does the same thing. Probably in a different area though. You know him?   My wife works in the H.I.M. department.
  18. Don't dis the Luger, man! :cool:
  19. I'd suggest watching ebay and the classified ads on leatherworker.net. mmirob gave you some good advice. I use real guns for molding. If I don't have your particular gun, you'll need to leave it with me a few days. This has never caused me any problems. In making custom holsters, a lot of the ones I make are for obscure guns for which there isn't a commercial holster available. That is really the niche for the hobbyist leatherworker. Where else are you gonna get something like this? :shrug: [URL=http://s612.photobucket.com/user/gregintenn/media/Holster%20Project/IMG_1392.jpg.html][/URL] [URL=http://s612.photobucket.com/user/gregintenn/media/Holster%20Project/IMG_1713.jpg.html][/URL]
  20. Tru Dat!
  21. I do have big piles of 556, 7.62x39, 22lr, etc., but not so many rounds of 218 bee, 32-20, 303 Savage, 41 Magnum, etc.You don't have to buy large quantities of each caliber you own to still enjoy them on occasion.
  22. http://www.coindesk.com/price/ Looks like it's down about 8% for the day. Anybody have any new insight on this bitcoin phenomenon? For some reason I find it intriguing.
  23. Here in Lafayette, it is illegal to navigate our public square in a motor vehicle after dark, unless you are escorted fore and aft by men on horses carrying lanterns.
  24. I once saw a farm plat where the length from one marker to the next was walking at a brisk pace for a length of time enough to smoke two cigarettes. Now that's precision!
  25. I have the ability to do this for you, but not the stamp to make it official.   Land surveying is quite the racket.
