MacGyver

I'm getting ready to post the new order thread. Just trying to square awry the details.

I run DM Bullard leather for my 230. 

I'd say a tact driver is my wife kicking me under the table when I'm telling a good story. I'd define tack driver literally. Push a thumbtack partially into a piece of wood and drive it in. Maybe 50 meters for .22 and 100 meters for everything else.

Stay tuned tomorrow. Y'all are going to like it. Turns out there's a genie named Jeff...

Love or hate the New York Times, they've really been stepping up their graphics over the last year or so.  Here's one tracking everyone's position on use of military force in Syria.   http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2013/09/05/us/politics/syria-vote-tracker.html?_r=0

Maybe the third time will be the charm.

You can use the old Boy Scout method, too. Tie off the ends of your pant legs, and fill them with air by throwing them over your head. As long as the fabric is wet, they'll retain air and provide a lot of flotation as sort of an emergency PFD. http://m.voices.yahoo.com/learning-every-day-items-as-personal-floatation-11342926.html

Speed is going to be of the absolute essence in a scenario like this.  By the time you get to day 2, it's going to be too late to start moving distance of any consequence.   Were it to head south, you need to go, and go fast.  I'd cover what ground I could in the car as fast as I possibly could and then look to moving to a bike or something similar - fold up bike or electric razor scooter in the trunk.  Were it me, I'd look to stay off the major arterials and cover what ground I could by car quickly, but when that's no longer feasible, move to an alternative.  My kids have a scooter that I've tried for endurance - 19 miles.  That should get you close enough that you can cover the rest on foot.  But, this gets your commute time to hours as opposed to days (never).

Walmart has a long history here.  Wonder why you see only packaged meat at Walmart?  It's because they got rid of all their meatcutters after a store in Jacksonville, TX voted to unionize back in 2000.   http://online.wsj.com/article/SB955407680495911513.html   http://articles.latimes.com/2000/mar/04/business/fi-5280

Make sure to shoot me a PM if y'all want to go to Loveless or Monell's.  Pretty sure I can talk my wife into either.

I'd certainly take a couple pounds next time you're over this way.

Remember that when it comes to these things, penetration reigns king over expansion.   Penetration is a must have.  Expansion is a bonus.

I'm always interested in local honey.  I'd echo posting it up here.

As was put forth by an Arab ambassador last week, "There has to be some additional motivation for the Obama administration to act now.  I mean, excuse me, but where the f*** was your outrage over the last year as more than 100,000 people were killed?  Why the outrage now over an additional 1,000?  He must have some other strategic objective."

I have a deal with most of the kids I know that I'll take them shooting when they can recite to me the four primary rules of firearm safety and tell me what they mean. I'm always happy to make good on my end of the bargin, and a lot of parents I know are happy to know they're learning in a safe environment.

Call me a stick in the mud, but I don't think I like them.  There's no sense of grace to those synthetic stocks. 

"and in case I don't see you, good afternoon, good evening, and good night"

I run their BCGs in a couple of my rifles.  My 300BLK upper came from AAC with an Ice Arms BCG.  No complaints from me.

I've always liked that blade. I wish someone other than Ontario made it though.

Love her or hate her, it's a pretty faithful rendition of the original.  She originally did this for the West of Memphis documentary.

People can have anything they like engraved after they take delivery.  I can say with certainty that we're engraving a custom range of serial numbers and that's it on this round.    CMT is doing us a huge favor by considering doing it at all.

I don't buy it.  I wonder if this is our same guy who was selling the M&Ps a couple of weeks ago?

The only way this works is with one set range of custom serial numbers that can be sequentially machined.  Anything else takes custom programming of each lower and any economy of scale goes out the window.
