MacGyver

One half of the cobra buckle is meant to be unthreaded from the belt so you can get it through normal belt loops.

Standard 1.5 loops work fine on all of my Raven holsters with the Ares Ranger.  They're tight, but the platform doesn't move.  At all.

  Sounds like a nuisance animal if ever there's been one...

Sometimes you've just gotta suit up and do the job you get paid for...

I'd argue this is more about making our teachers and school stats look better.  When you've got a failing system, it's' easier to move the goal posts than it is to fix it. 

And people wonder how terrorists blow up planes without ever raising an alarm...

I think I'm over your way over Labor Day, Gordon.  Give me a call if it doesn't get worked out between now and then.

There definitely is one...problem is that it's a more universal variant instead of the government specific kind.   One day this guy is going to reach down into his bag of luck and find it empty.    And when that day comes, getting assigned "Ben Dover" as a cellmate is probably the best of all the outcomes he can hope for.

I hope you're right, Mark.

Money.  Power.  Sex.   An old boss of mine told me once that when you're investigating a case and can't seem to find an angle.  Work the above list.  20 years later, I can affirm that he was right.   We really need term limits in a bad way!  Once they get to you, you're nothing but a puppet

For the very small stuff, I would say yes. 

2013 thinking in the startup space goes something like this:   1. Patents are unduly burdensome and expensive for (most) startup ideas.  You're going to want some validation of your product before you go to the (at least) 5-figure expense of getting a patent. 2. Filing for a provisional patent and thus registering your idea is okay if your idea is really unique, but understand that your burning a lot of cycles on this instead of spending those same cycles marketing, selling and validating the usefulness of your product. 3. As soon as you prove there's a viable market, competitors are going to come out of the woodwork with similar products thus likely making your patent worthless anyway.  This sounds dire, but don't kid yourself.  Startups don't have money to litigate patent cases.   As such, execution is what really matters.  As the old saying goes, "An idea is not a mockup.  A mockup is not a prototype. A prototype is not a product. A product is not a business. And, a business is not profits."   Your kickstarter idea is probably the way to go.  Good ideas with functional prototypes that serve a market seem to get funded pretty well these days.

This is on hold for a little bit, guys.  Our supplier bailed out on us at the last minute.  Hopefully once things calm down a little bit, someone will want the business.  We had about 250 lowers spoken for.

I'm always wary of ordering anything of consequence from anyone who can't think of a proper .com domain name with which to brand their business. 

If you're using a 9mm round with a shorter OAL, you may experience some problems with the 38 Super mags.  9mm-specific magazines typically have a spacer in them to allow the shorter rounds to bridge the gap - so to speak.    I wouldn't bet my life on it running reliably in that setup, but for casual use it shouldn't hurt anything.

Ram-line used to make hi-cap mags for the AR-7, but they were always finicky in my Charter Arms version.   I wish someone would really do a modern take on the M6.  It's kind of a limited market, but it's probably bigger today than it's ever been.

I saw the price listed at $169 not too long ago.  We'll see if it really hits the street there.

What is this, middle school? Y'all need to lay off. Feel free to argue positions all day so long as you do so respectfully. Stuff like this doesn't speak well of anyone.

They make an awfully good knife. And that big hole makes for a wickedly fast deployment. Pretty sure my military and even my 20 year old rescue are come out faster than most of the autos that people get so worked up about.

I'm sure they'll replace her with a Field Marshall of similar character and moral flexibility.

Yes.

I always loved some of Michael Burch's cleaver designs.

I used Quicken for years, and while I wanted to like it, I hated Intuit and their lack of innovation.  I bought new versions every couple of years hoping they would get better.  It got even worse once they bought Mint.com, as the added some of the Mint features into Quicken, quit development on Mint and hoped people would quit complaining. It made me resent them even more.  The only reason I used them at all was because I had data going back forever.   I switched to YNAB last year after surveying the current apps on the market.  My requirements are having native desktop clients, good mobile apps and solid synchronization across platforms.  They've got it right.  It's simple and effective.    Intuit can go pound sand.

Weird. Edited, and added a disclaimer.
