I've spent some time thinking and taking stock of my situation; especially since the earthquake in Japan. The best I can come up with is that I'm pretty well prepared for most any emergency, except for one thing: WATER. We have city water, and if you've ever laid any water line, you'll know that the pieces just snap together. It seems to me that in an earthquake, they'd snap apart just as easily. This is assuming that the city is still able to provide water at all. Is there anyone in Middle Tennessee that still drills wells? I may look at having one drilled.

I would just try to be still, quiet, and agreeable, and do your best to do what the officer asks you to do. If you drop your wallet in the floorboard, DO NOT bend over to pick it up!!!!! AN officer's handgun looks like it has an awfully big hole in it when he's pointing it at your nose!!!!!

I'm sure your posts were aimed at me, wjh2657. You are technically correct that since I'm not in the military, I'm not fighting a war personally. I do have friends and family who are, and the U.S.A. is at war. I am a citizen of the U.S.A., ergo WE are at war. I appreciate your service, but it doesn't make you any more of a United States citizen than I am. I understand the point you are trying to make, but it seems you've chosen a poor way to present it.

Not even close. He subscribes to the local newspaper and several outdoor and gun magazines. I expect his name was pulled from something like that.

Here is mine in a couple of pics I found.

My 12 year old son got one a couple of days ago. He thought he was in big trouble, getting a letter from the sheriff, until he opened it and saw what it was. Our sheriff has made more than a few idiotic remarks in the past regarding guns. He isn't getting anything from me; not even a vote next election.

It's about as informative as many gun magazine articles I've read lately.

The NRA isn't perfect, but they're the best and most effective representation we have at the moment. I have several gripes with them, such as mailing me crap 3-4 times per week, instead of using those funds to fight for gun rights. I'll continue to support them as long as I can, and voice my opinion on what they are doing right and what they could improve upon.

Welcom to the forum. I'd like to see pics of your Colt Ace. They are really neat guns. I have a cheap version of a 1911 22 made by German Sport Guns. I really enjoy shooting it.

Sounds lika a great deal!!!

No, sorry, I don't. I have a 1911, an LCP, a bunch of revolvers, and several antique pistols most have never heard of.

Trade it for a .22LR.

Hang around the house and worry the h3ll outta her for a while; she'll finally ask you "why don't you go turkey hunting?"

I killed my first turkey with an old single shot 12 guage with the forearm taped to the barrel. I've killed others with an Ithaca double and a model 37 Ithaca pump. It doesn't take anything high tech.

I've fired only one SKS and one AK 47. The SKS was far more accurate than the AK.

I make a few holsters, but don't have a Sigma to use for a pattern and mold. Perhaps someone else here could help you, as there are several capable holster majers here. Sorry I couldn't help. I don't mind recommending this gentleman either:Lobo Gun Leather - Home

I'm guessing as well that the coating is the culprit. Clean your cylinder well and get some brass cased ammo. BTW, that d@mned thing is loud isn't it? You might try cleaning and lightly lubing the chambers in your cylinder and firing some more. I'd think a film of oil would keep them from sticking....it's worth a shot. Too much oil, however, will make any case stick.

If I ever showed anyone a badge, which I'll never have, I'd expect them to shove it up my rectum.

What are you looking for?

Knock them out with a punch and a hammer.

Sorry, I was confused. Anyway, I say "Keep em all and buy more!"

This sure changed to this: in a hurry.

Our government gave us the background checks we have today with the expectation that it would lead to a safer society. Why is it that so many otherwise rational people keep buying the old trick of "if we just do this one more thing, everything will be great"? As far as the other saying: "if it only saves one life...", we could save thousands of lives if everyone would quit driving cars. Are you willing to do that to "just save one life"?

I think you are on the right track here. A guy just can't have too many guns! I am a Smith and Wesson revolver nut, and currently own 4 J frames. However, I find myself more and more slipping a Ruger LCP 380 into my pocket. It sure carries a lot easier, has 2 more shots, is 100% reliable, and is probably more powerful than you realize. Don't get rid of grandpa's gun, and if you like shooting your Glock, I'd recommend keeping it as well.
