It's legal, but you are a good man for trying to be considerate of your neighbors. Life isn't fun living near pizzed off neighbors. Likely, they'll be considerate of you in return. Probably your biggest concern will be ricochet, since Wilson county is one solid rock. :rofl:

Help this dog owner out and sign this petition...

Humans are getting dumber, aren't they? What's the difference in this and a cat killing a mouse? -
Chapel Hill always seemed like a nice place to me.

You might give the local sheriff's office where this place is located a call and feel them out as to whether they know much about the place. If there's a government employed dog catcher in the locality of the place, he might have some insight on them as well. How much is the fee? If it wasn't unreasonable, and I didn't otherwise smell a rat, I'd probably just pay it and get my dog back. My dog doesn't wear a nametag, but he's somewhat a celebrity around here. I think more people know him than me.

Geez! :eek: I'll put you in a real one for less money.

Model 1879? I don't think there's a lot of them. -
This is the message I've been trying to convey for years. I don't see a problem with the article. :up: :up: Stay out! :D

Oh no! :eek: I just bought three lowers, and each of them would eventually need one.

I can tell you where to get a great trigger kit for an AR15. :D

Well crap! Care to tell me what the price was?

Needing to add a wheel gun to the collection...thoughts??
gregintenn replied to MPGlock's topic in Handguns
Ifyou can run across one at a decent price, (prices are climbing rapidly) I would recommend a model 28 Smith and Wesson Highway Patrolman for a first revlover range gun. If you have a bigger budget and want a shinier one, hold out for a model 27. The N frame pistols are much easier to shoot welll than a J or K frame magnum. I've never had an L frame, but I suspect they'd work well too. -
It is a smaller store, but there's a lot of stuff in there. Ther store is nice, well laid out, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Definitely worth a visit.

7.62x39 accuracy problems
gregintenn replied to Dolomite_supafly's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
I bought a case of the Wolf recently as well. At that price, I just can't justify reloading it. I wish 223/556 would get back down to that threshold. I'm still loading it. -

I'm not getting benchrest accuracy from Wolf ammo, but I've found it reasonably accurate and haven't seen any keyholes. For .25 per round or less, I just live with it. -

China made the best AK ammo. It's a shame it isn't still available. I don't think you'll be able to get the cheap Russian stuff much longer either. Surely someone will pick up the slack, and make some cheap stuff. I'm with Gordon; how much more could it cost to make it with the correct bullet diameter? What diameter bullets do American manufacturers such as Winchester, Remington, Hornady, etc. use? They sure charge plenty for it, if you can actually find it. -
We are getting a dog!!! Where to train and which one??
gregintenn replied to Ladyhay's topic in General Chat
I'll have to disagree with this. Some of the best dogs I've had were nothing more than mutts. However you decide to go about it, please remember these two things: 1) Buying a dog is like having a child. Getting him home is just the beginning of the financial obligation a dog requires. 2) Puppies chew stuff up! Live with it. They'll grow out of it sooner or later. -

Any bald guys use anything other than a razor?

I'm a clippers guy. I once shaved my head, and it stuck to my pillow like velcro. I didn't like that. -

gregintenn replied to Ladyhay's topic in General Chat
A German Shepherd would be a fine choice. So would a Labrador Retriever. I would recommend a female. Males are usually good with children as well, but a female seems to have that motherly instict to take care of them. I see no need to have an intelligent dog formally trained. Spend time with it, and it'll try to do what it thinks will please you. It'll likely train you a bit as well. We have a Lab. He is part of the family. I'm on my on if trouble strikes, but although he's gentle as a lamb, I have no doubt he'd do everything possible to protect my wife and kids. -
Get one at least twice the size you really think you need. I have two overflowing and am considering a third. My wife says I need to sell some stuff. :shake: That's just crazy talk!

Why not shoot military surplus ammo? I imagine the new manufactured commercial ammo is loaded with .308 bullets because, if I'm not mistaken, newly manufactured rifles such as Ruger Mini 30, Interarms Mini Mauser, etc. will have a .308 bore. I don't know how much extra pressure .003" in bullet diameter would cause, but I think it could possible cause a problem. What I wish is that there was a readily available source for inexpensive brass for this caliber. I have some Norinco ammo, and thought I've never measured a bullet, I can attest to it's stellar accuracy; at least in an SKS. I don't recall firing any in an AK. Like you said, however, it has gotten expensive enough that I hate to shoot much of what I have left. -
If it'll feed into the chamber, I expect the old Star will fire it without incident (reloads of dubious origin notwithstanding).
