  1. Nah, that thing is sexy any way you look at it. When we finally get you over to the NFA dark side, you're just a barrel swap away from stone cold awesome!
  2. I put a Noveske PIG while I wait for the suppressor. If 300gr rounds are somehow lacking in "bite", the pig sure makes up for it in "bark".
  3. I need to get the can on my Spectre!
  4. Yeah, I'm sitting on a stack of them at this point. I got a deal on the translucent ones a while back. Those big rounds look pretty ominous in there!
  5. Rifle looks great, Mike!
  6. Al Gore calling someone a psuedo-scientist. That's rich!
  7. I remember hiking as a kid on Cumberland Island in south Georgia and meeting a guy whose job it was to drive around the island in a truck and shoot them on sight with a bolt action .22mag. We saw him every day for a week and the back of his truck was full every time. That was the first place I ever got chased by a hog, too.
  8. A .380 vs. a .25. That could have gone so wrong in such an epic fashion. Oww. Oww. Quit it. Oww. No you quit it. Oww. Oww. Applebee's Diner Shoots Mugger - Old Northeast-Downtown St. Pete, FL Patch At least we can chalk up two for the good guys in Tampa over the last week.
  9. Welcome to TGO
  10. I pocket carry a j-frame when I'm wearing a pack. A properly adjusted pack and hip belt sits high enough that it doesn't interfere at all.
  11. You've got to be pretty particular about the maintenance of your weapon when you run and sweat as much as I do. Even if the potential market was great, I don't know that I'd be up for the hassle of dealing with all the people who had their P3ATs rust because they don't know how to wipe them down and prevent corrosion.
  12. That's all part of my evil plan...talk about interrupting an OODA loop...
  13. No. I still carry on my thigh. Pistol on one side. Spyderco on the other. I cut a slot into the outside thigh of a pair of under armor compression shorts. I whip stitched the sides so the don't fray. Behind that, I sewed in a piece of coated neoprene to make a pocket. I then ran the sewing machine along a rough outline of the pistol to make the "holster". I have a pair that work well with an LCP and a pair that I made for the mini. Throw on a pair of normal running shorts over the top, and you can't tell I'm carrying, and it doesn't move or bother me a bit. It's also immediately available if I need it.
  14. I don't put a shirt on until at least November, so I use a NAA Mini in .22mag either just in the pocket of my running shorts or in a "holster" I sewed into the leg of some Under Armor shorts on the outside of my thigh.
  15. Yeah, I purposely just divided out the "additional" debt. When you look at actual taxpayers or families as opposed to the total population it is both very sobering, and yet somehow takes the air out of the "we can't do it argument at the same time. Yes, it is a really big number, but it can be done. Families get out of debt all the time. It can be done. It's going to take some elected representatives brave enough to do it.
  16. Between September 2008 and December 2008, over 60,000 factories of various sizes closed in China. When Americans quit buying stuff, other economies go south quickly!
  17. Your math isn't working. It's a big number, but not that big. 10 trillion divided by 350 million is about $28,571
  18. One of our vendors, joeboboutfitters has some pretty good deals on a range of LPKs.
  19. Capital is going to flow to where it's cheapest. Period. Unless your plan recognizes this, it will fail. You can't put Pandora back in the box. America, for all of our problems still does most of the innovating in the world. Some interesting things are afoot. A lot of small and mid-sized companies are actually moving their manufacturing back from China. It seems that if you aren't the size of Apple, you just don't get the attention you might expect. With the cost of oil on the rise, and transport costs going up all the "cost savings" aren't really materializing. People are deciding it's not worth it. Our real problem is that not enough Americans actually care at all.
  20. Yep. You can't really blame them for starting it, but they certainly greased the slippery slope.
  21. I find it kind of ironic that anyone still pays attention to anything they say.
  22. If you can get used to the sight picture, the "1/2 homie" method actually lets you absorb the recoil more naturally due to your arm geometry when shooting one handed. Imagine if you will your weapon being canted anywhere from 30-45 degrees. Your arm acts as a shock absorber of sorts and allows the recoil to come straight back at you. Try it next time you're at the range shooting one handed. You might get some funny looks, but it'll make you a better shooter.
  23. The Rohrbaugh series is a really small platform, but make sure you shoot one before you consider buying one. I know a few people who have bought one because of its size, but were disappointed because it was so hard to handle.
