  1. My friend at Antlers and Feathers in Lafayette can beat the prices in the Academy Sports ad on the Ruger LCP and the LC9. I don't know about the Glocks.
  2. I'd say the latter is more accurate. I'm not looking to win an award with the lawn of the month club, just for a fast way to mow it, and for a lawnmower I don't need to work on twice a month.
  3. Here's some really good advice from a man who knows. The hand primer is inexpensive yet invaluable tool.
  4. I'm mowing with a bushhog right now, as my riding mower laid down. I'm really looking for something faster, and that will do a better job. I might be happy with a belly mower, but aren't they a pain to out on and take off? I use my tractor for other things regularly.
  5. Looked like my wife was operating the video camera. I nearly got motion sickness from watching it.
  6. I'm in the market for one, and not sure what to get. My neighobr has a $2500 Cub Cadet and loves it. My dad has a $8500 Dixie Chopper and loves it. I'm going to be mowing about 6 acres; part of it is in good shape, and part of it is pretty rough and rocky. I want to cut it as quick as I can for as little money as I can, and not have to spend a lot of time repairing the mower. I see a wide variation in prices on these, and although I do see differences in the least and most expensive models, I'm not sure the good ones are worth the extra dough. Whadda you think?
  7. I think if more LEOs would make their opinions known, there'd be a lot less misunderstanding about them. This guy was very articulate, and well thought out in his opinions. I hope most LEOs agree with him.
  8. Try for a few minutes before 7 and you'll likely be fine. A few minutes fter 7, and you'll be in the middle of a giant parking lot.
  9. Print Story : Dealing with citizens legally carrying a concealed weapon - PoliceOne.com
  10. I have a 39, which is the single stack father of the 59. It is a fine handgun. Although I personally don't care for the wide doublestack grip, the 59 should otherwise be a fine gun as well. If you get a nice one, and take care of it, I believe it'll be a good investment as well as a good shooter.
  11. I like guns. I don't own them to shoot people with. I just like them. I have guns that were gifts, guns that were heired, guns that wree custom made just for me, guns that I like, guns I don't really like, etc. Just as my wife doesn't think one pair of shoes is enough, I don't think that one gun is enough. Your mileage may vary. As far as that happy part goes, I'd be just as happy with no guns. Stuff doesn't equate to happiness. Some people learn this early, some late, some never do.
  12. When you say one, you mean one.....hundred?:screwy:Otherwise, that's just crazy talk.
  13. I'm with you there!!! The only match primers I ever bought was at a going out of business sale, and I already bought all the regular primers he had.
  14. I know there's one of those converters laying around here somewhere. If I can find it, I'll PM for your address and send it to you. The problem, however, is that the digital converter you'll need to buy to make it work would cost nearly what you'd spend to buy a small digital ready TV.
  15. Send me the primers if you're scared of them. Seriously, it does happen, but you'll likely never see it happen again. I've heard it claimed that some primers require a heavier strike to ignite than other brands. It appears in the picture that you had a good, solid strike. For whatever reason, the primer was bad. When you punch it out, look and see if it contains priming compound. That is very uncommon. I've had a couple of misfires with factory ammo through the years, but I can't remember any with handloads, except some that were due to a weak mainspring in a 100 year old revolver.
  16. People have a hissy fit at the mention of religion in schools. How the hell is the green movement not a religion. It certainly isn't backed be any scientific facts. It is a group of people putting their faith into something they can't prove exists.
  17. Smith and Wesson Revolver.
  18. Thanks guys. Shall I swing by and pick you up, Garufa?
  19. Sounds like it should work well. I may look to see if my wife has any pillow stuffing left. Dacron I believe it is. That would be easier to place over the powder than the oversized piece of gasket paper.
  20. Is it so that I can drive to Anniston Alabama with cash and my handgun carry permit, and return home with a Garand? If so, how's their selection? When's the best time to go? Any other advice you could give would be appreciated.
  21. I've sold hundreds of them, and I've yet to ask for any "papers". The only problem I've had is getting home and wishing I'd have kept it.
  22. You might need rice for june bugs.
  23. Here are two of quite a few casualties that fell to me and the boys this afternoon. We shot several carpenter bees, bumble bees, and wasps. We think the cicadas will be fine sport soon. I'm having good luck with 2.5 grains of Bullseye, then a 3/8" wad cut from gasket paper, then filled to the rim with walnut media, and capped with another gasket paper wad. The only trouble I've found is getting the first wad to go down into the case straight. I seat the second wad with my bullet seating die, and crimp it in place. These aren't any louder than a pop gun, and are deadly to insects at 6-8'. THanks for the suggestion. This is a lot of fun.
  24. I looked this morning, and mine does have a staked front sight ala GI issue.
