Why's he so angry? Did he come to America and get his hair cut at Supercuts or something?

I doubt you'll have to watch for leading....it'll probably be pretty obvious. But you'll never know for sure till you try it.

Right at $50 per 1000 on S&B primers. They were all I saw in stock. Maybe not too far off considering.

First, it was the Lebanon Gun Shop, who refused to sell a box of 1000 primers. Today, I went in the Reloader's Bench. They were sold out of most anything I was interested in. I did see a couple of boxes of 250 Savage ammo on the shelf...then I noticed the price tag...$42.99 a box! :stare: I'll remember these things and shop accordingly when things return to normal.

If you aren't comfortable with a loaded chamber, you either don't understand how your pistol works, or else you bought the wrong pistol.   Don't pull the trigger and the gun won't fire. It ain't any more complicated than that.

I'd like to see more as well.

Looks nice! I may have a project or two for him if he is ever looking for work.

She should have to stand in line at Walmart and get three boxes at a time like the rest of us. :up:

One has to wonder why it was changed to it's present day form. I find myself undecided on the issue. I would, however, like to once again be able to vote for my school superintendant.

Nice setup! I'll bet it's a great shooter.

Too lazy to count them, but they're all filled with ammunition.

I guess it depends on what your invested in, but I'd hope a decent mutual fund, bond fund, or most other popular investments would perform much better than that.

Eric, I know this question wasn't directed toward me, but I would like to give you my opinion. I have a financial advisor. I rarely take advice from her, but have learned quite a bit from her. She is more interested in selling product than in my best interests, and I'm frankly too lazy to go out and find another. I pretty well know what I want to do, but do like the added assurance of thinking that she'd call if she saw me headed into a financial trainwreck. If you are confident on what you'd like to invest in, you can save some fees by doing it online. I like the convenience of this lady filling out the paperwork for me and coming here to my home when I ask.   If you aren't confident in your investment skills, I would suggest you find a GOOD financial advisor. You'll likely need to talk to several before you find a good one. A few things to look out for are: 1)One who is mainly trying to make a sell. 2)One who isn't interested in discussing anything except for what they have to sell. 3)One who doesn't answer your questions well, and explain everything to your satisfaction. 4)One who is condescending and tries to make you feel unable to understand what you are buying. 5)one who tries to sell you Whole, Universal, or any other type cash value life insurance.

Yeah....that wasn't unique to Edward Jones. This year has started off with a bang, however. The cool thing about dollar cost averaging is that no matter what the market does, you bought at least some of it at a decent price.

You are on the right track, Erik. :up: Starting young is a great force in wealthbuilding.

                        How does this benefit you?                  ...and some people who weren't adequately insured. I'm not sure what you're smoking if you think people can't sue you and win a settlement against investments. Anything you own is subject to lawsuits.     Eric, I'd be very careful who you take investment advice from. I would suggest someone who has some money.

I don't know where to begin. Pretty much everything you've said here is incorrect. How is a mortgage a tax shelter? In case of an emergency, why not pay cash instead of borrowing more against your house? Why do you pay your bank to keep money in it? I don't. Dave Ramsey states emphatically that you should NOT worry about your credit score. As for the brilliant business idea, you can do it without a loan or partner if you have cash! That's what you get to keep for yourself if you aren't spending it all in interest and debt.

You did good. You won't see benchrest competition accuracy from it, but you will get very good deer hunting grade accuracy. I've had a couple, and they'd shoot whatever you put in them. Seems like 150 grain Remingtons worked as well as any. At this time, it will depend more on what you can find.

ON a centerfire, about all you can do is to set the bullet back into the case far enough to increase pressure, or dent the case bad enough so that it will not chamber in your gun. If the primer is ignited, which takes extreme heat or a hard, concentrated blow to the center of the primer, the ignition will cause the primer to come out of the case, with little movement of the case or bullet. The primer, in that instance, can be a dangerous projectile. Don't ask me how I know this. :ugh:

Not really. Show me how paying a mortgage with interest would put you ahead of investing the same money each month into the interest bearing account of your choosing.

So, did you trade?

I'll second the 58 Remington suggestion. I have one that came form Cabela's several years back. It is among the most accurate handguns I own.   The bad: I'd rather wash and wax a car than to clean a blackpowder revolver after it's been fired.

You can't back that statement with a calculator. :shrug:

For their intended purpose, I'd toss both aside in favor of an M1 Carbine. :up: I guess I am getting old.

John Moses Browning didn't deem them necessary, so that's good enough for me. Looks likt they'd be hard on the inside of a holster.   Aside from that, I wouldn't buy a 1911 with a rail on it. That's why they make different models I suppose.
