  1. Armageddon The Shootist The Terminator (the first) The Princess Bride The Shawshank Redemtion The Green Mile Heck, I can't limit to five only--so many really good movies still unnamed.
  2. Not being a glock expert, I think it is just the finger grooves and the light rail. I traded for my first glock last year--a gen 3 model 22 and like it. my next was 45 model 30. I like it much better than the 40

    "Good" Entry 1911

    Taurus. Entry level 1911's normally will be in the 500-600 range and has been said, that's a basic model with no frills. With a little looking and bargaining, the PT1911 can be had for usually 550-650 otd pricing. And with that you'll get better sights and upgraded features at the entry pricing. Don't take me wrong though, there's nothing about a RIA that would stop me from buying if I found a really good price on one.

    Great News

    That's Great! I know how much better that makes you feel. God Bless you and I wish for a speedy recovery. And Thank You.
  5. All of them? Sure seems like it. Especially since I'm still in the cleaning/repair stage of flood effects. It didn't seem like a lot of ammo and calibers till I started moving it all. 22 short/22lr/22mag/32/380/38/357/357sig/9mm/40/41AE/44special/44mag/ 45colt/45acp/556:popcorn: Ridiculous, isn't it? I definitely am going to eliminate some of these from my safe.
  6. Welcome to the site; inherent with all the wit, sarcasm, downright onryness, and sometimes even knowledge you can stand.

    Sorry!!

    Beginning to appreciate European cars, especially M-B, more and more lately. Must have something to do with age.
  8. ^^Me too.
  9. Agree with all above comments! One of the best movies to come out of that era from Hollywood. And one of my many all-time favorite movies. So many great scenes in it that it's hard to pick a best one. But a few... when Oddball shoots the panzer in the rear with paint cannisters when the panzer commander raises his eyebrow at the bank and shoots the door open When the three shermans attack the railyard from the tunnel... and any Carroll O'Conner scene. Woof! Woof! PS Mike, how ya' doin?
  10. Welcome to the world of Taurus and the ridicule that comes with the sense to buy a good little pocket pistol. Although I prefer the 709 to yours. But hey, that's the fun of difference.

    Beretta owners

    Have owned several Beretta guns; a 92/96/Cougar 8045-great pistol/ and still have a Desert Storm Commemorative and a 92/96 kit for 9mm/40. Like and have liked them all--just not my size for carry. Should've kept the 8045. Currently favor glock 30 and cz Rami 9mm.

    COLT COBRA

    Beautiful little pistol there, 10mm4me. So since your admited and proclaimed desire for a 10mm...Why not give that to me to join it's slightly worn and used cousin in my safe?
  13. I see a bunch of guys with caps, guns, golfcarts, and canned beverages. Looks like a golf outing in the making from one of many Nashville neighborhoods to me.
  14. How about the Colt Ace? Is it too hard to find? I see one pretty often. Too high? Pardon my lack of knowledge on this, but I'm curious. My dad had one and shot it pretty often.
  15. Welcome to the land of 1911...the Baskin-Robbins of firearms.
  16. Pray for Iran to develop some level of intelligence and sanity, for I think the Isreali's are through playing around.

    stolen gun

    I'm very sorry for what happened to you. As others have said, it is a sad time when you can't even work in your own yard without locking doors. We lived in the Hermitage area (land of the bonnas) for 26 years before moving to Inglewood. (Yes, I know. Not much better, but we inherited an old family home.) And by that time, we'd acquired the habit of locking all doors on house and cars at all times. How very sad it is, for all of us.
  18. ^^Very well said, Daddyo.
  19. Especially today, but not only today; let us remember and honor all those past and present who gladly, willing, and faithfully served and protected this county. In honor of those who returned...and those who didn't... Thank You. And God Bless and Keep You.
  20. Ditto. I've bought several times from them and been very happy with everything I've gotten. Not always the absolute lowest price, but usually is, fast free shipping, and won't take your order then tell you it's out of stock.
  21. Good Luck with the P-40! It's quite a handful. But hold tightly and fire away! BTW, I'm envious; I never found one when looking for them.

    S&W MP15-22 Magpul

    Sure good to hear nice things about the M&P22. I've been thinking about one or possibly putting a 22 conversion on the old mini 14.
  23. Chris, welcome to TGO, and Thank You for your service. God Bless You.
  24. Howze ya doin'?
