I do. He's probably a liberal Democrat. That's pretty insulting ain't it?

It is impressive!

Wasn't able to get any at all.

Nope. I'm a mustard fan! LOL!

Well..glad I didn't risk going. Would have been a real problem for me, and a disapointment as well. Like all above, I miss the golden days of real Gun Shows! Where you could find hidden treasures and great guns; good people and some good buys, and could leave thinking...how am I going to explain all this stuff to my wife? I haven't had to do that since roughly 2011-2012.

A beauty! I'm happy for you...yet extremely envious as well! lol

I am so sad...that it's yours and not mine!

Exactly.

I'm sloshing now! I actually think that I sometimes just don't drink enough for long periods of time. That doesn't help. I'm sure you know the line "I just not thirsty." Wife is on me about it constantly, As she should be.

Lets not get started on the other JMB child!

My pleasure Cmmdr! I have favorites among the "lesser priced" range ammo. Glad to be able to offer any ifo I can. I'm usually the last to know on any sales. Blazer Brass 124. S&B in both 115/124. Fiocchi in both weights, And CCI Lawman. As I saed earlier, don't shoot a lot of PD rounds, though I have a few acquired before the more recent pricing. Where possible, I try not to buy anything else. Had good use from them and stayed there. I did stray once into Independence Ammo, and bought near 6000 rounds from a sale. It shoots well and I like it, but found later that it was a mix of new and reman. Not long after find this out, I had several failure with it in my pistol format carbine. Several light loads leaving rounds in the barrel, and 3 case seperations on ignition. Again in a rifle. I put them aside after that. I'll use them in revolvers, but just don't feel comfortable in other 9mm vehicles. Have used other brands at times, and rarely had any bad reactions. But as I began buying in bulk to get better pricing(way back in the past). I just continued with what I knew. In the early 80s, I worked with a gentleman who offerred me some of his 45 acp. He brought in 2 full cases of S&W Competition ammo. 5 a box. Yes I took it. lol As I sit here I can't remember what it said on the box. But it shot absolutely wonderful in the big, heavy 745/645? I'd bought on a whim. still hav e few boxes left. My Colt O Model "Loves" it.

My dad was responsible for my BHP inclinations. He had one that he loved. I shot it a few times and liked it. Somewhere along the years, Dad sold it, and I didn't do anything until much later. IIRC, my first was a Mkll that i later sold to my b-i-l. Like you, sir, it was early 90s before I bought another. Little gun shop owned by a Bill Harton(?) in the Antioch Sam's area. As much as I liked them, I didn't have the funds to buy multiples of it. There was always something else to attract me. Have a few now. But thinking of downsizing them. I don't carry them. Just fun collection I guess.

Don't think the Detective was made in Stainless, but could be misinformed on that. Now if you want to come near the pric Grayfox54 mentioned from Gunbroker...I might let mine go. HEE HEE

Just from the standpoint of most news broadcasts, it appears vital to identify race...especially if cacausian. It lends more fodder for liberals to scream over. White man with a gun responsible!! FWIW...this is out of sequence and time. I was pulled away from my initial sitdown and typing. Wife and my UTI pulled me away. Ok. I've said it. I'm an old man with UTI. Hurts to pee. Burning pain and pressure afterwards. Yes I got Meds Friday. It's better, but not by much. Another couple days before relief I think. And no for those who are thinking an STD! LOL! I ain't that kind of guy! Maybe in my 20's...but I learned.

Doug, all you can do is try. I commend you for that. But some just don't want the responsibility, or the cautionary fear that should go with carrying ANY sort of weapon or safety device. It's a choice that we cannot make for them, or force upon them. Each must decide for themselves. At least your daughter seems to understand this. My wife is a retired nurse and has seen things like your daughter has. Again, all she could rely on were the guards to walk them out for protection. During once time frame at Vanderbilt(both at an on campus and off campus facilites) the guards were escorting INTO the buildings. Staff was encouraged to call when they had parked, and not exit their vehicle until security arrived. Oh, the times we live in are a changin'.

Sadly, I think you've said it very well. Those standing by and not accepting the reality of our life and times are just not looking...anywhere.

OK. I'll be the one. NPR and no mention of race. I just wonder about this. It's terrible that this happened. Horrible that Kids were involved and killed/injured. I feel and grieve for the loss of life...any life anywhere at anytime. I really do. All life is precious. I offer morning prayer for all involved here. But...NPR reporting. This causes me a bit of questioning.

BACON, Chocolate, Bagels and Cream Cheese, and Coffee grudlingly. The 4 foods! Man can sustain life with these. lol!

Mayonnaise has only a few uses. Mixer for tuna and chicken salads chief among them! AND...Perhaps sparingly on a Bacon/Lettuce/Tomato sammich!! Now as far as our brothers KahrMan and Snaveba...I will pray for your return to sanity!

Mayonnaise is Richard Gere! the only good Mayo! Unless some of you guys are to young to understand this!

Surely you aren't just now realizing this!

Now thar's just MEAN! I had myself convinced the SA35 was the one!

Very well expressed, Omega! Very well.

Damn! I thought I was being a downer today! Sadly though, I think I agree very much with these comments.

I must admit to surprise on the mobility chairs. The 2 I attended...Louisville/Nashville, were so crowded it was impossible to do more than a virtual cattle shute walk almost every where expect outside and the edges of the crowd. But times and conditions have changed I guess. More old codgers like me who need assistance now. As far as the closing of businesses, I'm unhappy about that, but really not surprised. The liberals, the extremeists, and the Sleepy Joe edicts have put a hurt on many, not just in the firearms and accessory lines. I agree, the current import bans, and those projected to come, may have influenced many previous attendees. The above paragraph being said, can you begin to fathom the destruction in the bussiness world, and the jobs loss if Joe and Soros and Chinese all get their way? I think hundreds of businesses and hundreds of thousands of jobs would be lost! I've given a great deal of thought to this scenerio playing out, and it truly frightens me. The number of individuals and business entities that would be lost is enormous! It might not be as large and extreme as losing all the automtive industry; but sure would be felt! Sorry, getting pessimistic as I age. And it's getting worse the older I get. You youngsters just haven't gotten there yet. I hope you don't. Or have to be this way. Thanks for your comments to me on the Convention. I enjoyed hearing from you.
