  1. http://www.usatoday.com/news/politics/story/2012-08-12/democrat-mark-clayton-tennessee-candidate/57012036/1 http://www.examiner.com/article/federal-lawsuit-filed-to-overturn-clayton-nomination I don't know anything about this guy, but it seems he has a firm grasp an getting free publicity. This could get interesting.
  2. Real men pee outdoors.
  3. National southpaw day was a few days back, so in late honor of that, I wondered how many of you lefties use specifically left handed guns, guns that pretty much work either way, or have adapted to the standard right handed actions. I fall somewhere in between the last two catergories. I shoot a lot of bolt rifles that are all right handed, but I prefer shotguns such as over/unders, side by sides, or Model 37 Ithacas that don't really matter. I also have a fondness for lever rifles. They are pretty much ambidextrous as well.
  4. I'd like one of those!
  5. O.k., REAL men do not do this sort of thing.
  6. Yes, but men do not use a gun and badge to intimidate children into situations such as this.
  7. http://www.wsmv.com/story/19263572/sumner-county-deptuty-fired-arrested I gotta say that were that my daughter, I'm not sure he'd be able to make the hearing on the 24th. Wonder how much garbage like this gets swept under the rug before it becomes public knowledge?
  8. I believe the Jackson/Macon county line is the northern border. East is you'uns, west is ya'll. I do enjoy the macon county pronoun that espresses ownership; you'rn (pronounced as urine).
  9. All I know is that if police are harrassing a lawyer, neither of them are harrassing me! It is a win-win situation.
  10. I like Ryan pretty well myself. Maybe someday when he runs for President, I'll vote for him.
  11. I've only loaded 110 grain fmj and 110 grain lead nose bullets. I expect the 90 grain bullet would work well enough, but wht mess with the standard load? You are still goig to need to load them hot enough to cycle the action.
  12. Just got back from The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. I told the kids they just received the greatest history lesson they'll ever get. It's definitely worth the trip.
  13. If there is still life in him, you should still be shooting. Why would you shoot someone to turn around and attempt to save their life in the next instant? Wouldn't a threat still be a threat until it is neutralized? What could happen that would make you determine the person is no longer a threat? If shooting was necessary, I surely wouldn't want to get within arms reach of him.
  14. 32 S&W long is quite common. http://www.ammunitiontogo.com/index.php/cName/32-sw-long-fmj-lrn It is basically the same cartridge as the 32 Colt New Service (32 Long Colt). THe 32 Short will fire in one as well, but a long cartridge will not chamber in a short cylinder. I have fired a 32 ACP cartridge in a 32 Short cylinder, with no ill effects, but do not recommend the practice. What model is the revolver? I'd like to see pics and see more info on the gun if you can.
  15. 32 Short. The Longs are cheaper and easier to find.
  16. Somebody's at a gun store somewhere raising h3ll!!!
  17. That would be the best option. If you want a 308, buy a 308. YOu can tie up a LOT of money in gunsmithing fees in a hurry. The results will range from awesome to abysmal.
  18. How 'bout picking up your empty casings and getting the heck outta dodge?
  19. If you don't mind a single action, the Heritage Rough Rider is a pretty good gun for the money. It isn't a Colt, but you won't pay for a Colt either. If you'd prefer a double action, bite the bullet and buy a Smith and Wesson. You'll spend more range time with a 22 than with any other gun if you're like me. Go on and get a good one.
  20. Nope. Shoule be about the same price. The thing is that you already have a 7mm. If it shoots good, and probably does, you already know what you've got. After you've spent a ton of money rebarreling it, you have no guarantee the new barrel will shoot as good as the factory barrel.
  21. Take your money and buy some inexpensive reloading equipment. The 7mm Mag will do anything you can do with a 308.
  22. I saw a guy get his tool box and tools repossed at our maintenance garage. He had more than 25k in tools, and pretty much all he dose is oil changes and brake jobs. I"m no mechanic, but I could do that with little more than a 4 way wrench and a pair of pliers. As far as the teacher whining, I heard it no stop the entire time I went to school. I'm sure you did as well. If anyone sat through that, decided to become a teacher, and now whines, they probably rode the short bus. I don't mind paying fees (provided I know what they are for), but I'll stage a revolt before I sell one damned thing for a fundraiser!!! I once asked a teacher what the money was being raised for when solicited for one particular fundraiser, and she actually had no idea. If it's so important, perhaps the teachers should spend part of the summer selling this various cr@p. Or better yet, get the teachers' union to lobby for better classroom funding rather than for less work and more money.
  23. You just answered your own question.
  24. Different cases, different rim diameters. You'd need a new bolt, new magazine, and new barrel. Best to trade rifles.
