It was a lame attempt at humor.

Those are nearly as rough as spit cans.

I've not realized it until I read this thread, but the fact that I was carrying at the time, and didn't want to jeopardize that right for me or for other CCW holders, has made me walk away from more than one confrontation. It would be hard to quantify how much violence carrying has prevented without a gun ever having been drawn.

I've had good luck with Magtech ammo, and their brass is as good as any. I haven't tried any primers yet, but intend to some day.

I'd suggest you size, trim, and chamfer before loading. Some of the case mouths won't be round as they easily get bent in shipping, and you'll likely find some length variations as well. I'm not saying this is necessary, but I do it. The more consistancy you can get from shot to shot, the better accuracy you'll enjoy.

Would anyone care to give a report?

I like the extra barrel length if it is to be carried in a holster. It would be a liability for pocket carry. I won't own one until they get rid of that usless lock!!!

Really? I love the Nashville zoo.

What a shame. I was really getting to like this forum.

NASCAR?

Really??!!???

I like Jon Stewert and Colbert better than Katie Couric. The next time I see watch her on the news it will be because someone threw her in front of a moving bus or something.

I don't mean to sound like a smart @ss, but just because you know the laws, that doesn't mean all the post office employees, police officers, ATF agents, etc. do. I can see a lot of problems arising from shipping a firearm person to person. Just because it's legal doesn't mean it will always be pain free.

I don't have a clue. I load when I have a chance, until I have very little empty brass. Any time I'm in the mood, I pull out whatever's on my mind, walk out behind the house, and shoot till I'm no longer in the mood. The older the boys get, the more ammo we go through. A lot of it is 22 ammo. I really like shooting 22s.

I understand completely. However, even though this is a private website, wouldn't you think benefactors should have just a bit of say as to what goes on here? If it is as inflammatory as Daniel made it out to be, shouldn't it be deleted?

Daniel, I believe that action was quite rash as well. I can't say I agreed with everything he wrote, but was very interested to read a different viewpoint. He wasn't at all rash or condescending to anyone. I didn't see the problem.

Thanks.

IN fact, I believe the whole issue of race is little more than a crutch. On my census form, I marked other in the race catergory and wrote "American". We don't need "black" leaders or "white" leaders, we need competent, American leaders.

Name one white racist the media refers to as a "white leader". I can name several black racists commonly refered to as "black leaders".

I think you're pretty close actually.

How has it gotton to the point where this guy, as ignorant as he is, is labeled a hate mongering racist, while black people with basically the same philosophy are labeled black leaders. And furthermore, I saw one guy say he was offended. Why does everything offend us now?

I found the strip to be a very misleading place. My perception of size and distance was greatly distorted due to the absence of landmarks. There are nothing but rows of gigantic hotels up and down the street with nothing else around but desert. When walking from one hotel to the next, it appeared to be like walking from one house to the next in a subdivision, when in reality, it takes about twenty minutes to walk from one to the next. There's actually an area in one hotel, Paris I believe, that has a thunderstorm in the lobby every so often. It's pretty neat.

I like Ron Paul, and to a lesser degree, Fred Thompson.

Then why do they paint the slogan "To Protect And Serve" on the doors of their patrol cars?

I'm not a big casino fan, but I really enjoyed walking through the different hotels. One night, we caught a free concert on Freemont Street. It was the Marshall Tucker band. We got to meet and have our picture made with the lead singer, Doug Gray. I also enjoyed Lake Mead, the Hoover Dam, Red Rock Canyon, and a host of other local sights. I'll probably never go back, but I'm sure glad I went once. It was 114 degrees when we got there, and you could see snow on distant mountaintops. You can walk all day in the heat and your shirt never gets wet. It's a different world. I only saw one policeman while I was there, and he was riding a bicycle.
