As far as I am concerned, all pro, no con. A lot depends on what you want to use it for. I wouldn't want to conceal carry it, but for an all around pistol, they are probably my favorite in the price range.

Don't know anything about this one, but it has ok reviews and isn't super expensive. I think the issue you will have is with the shorter barrel, muzzle blast without the shroud is going to be very loud and concussive. I am not a fan of breaks in general. I would probably go for some type of rest that helps with the recoil before a break if all I wanted it for was to help recoil while bench shooting long ranges. http://www.amazon.com/Kineti-Tech-Muzzle-Redirect-threaded-Sleeve/dp/B00JTI6L1G/ref=pd_sim_sg_4?ie=UTF8&refRID=13HGR21G6QF31F66K28G

That was incredible. With that being said, I have no desire to put that much time into learning anything.

I will just say this is my opinion and I am not making judgement, but for me 6 is too young to be moving up to high power calibers, any caliber. I would take him to the woods and let him become proficient with the 22. He will have just as much fun and I would say that it would be much safer for everyone. It isn't safer because he can't handle the recoil, it safer because he is too young to realize just how far one of those projectiles can go. I don't care if you are sitting right next to him, he is still 6 and he will make bad shots. Any bad shot isn't good, but when you can have a bullet travel miles, it is worse. You can still take him out hunting and enjoy your time together. I started hunting and shooting when I was about that age, but I was not allowed to use any big gun for hunting until I was probably 9 or 10. I had time to learn how to be a good hunter and learn the ways of the woods. I would argue that he will gain more out of target shooting at that age than anything. Take him squirrel hunting if you want to hunt and he will remember it just the same as deer hunting or any other hunting for that matter. I think you are rushing it a bit. I realize every child is different, but 6 is just a bit too young in my view.

That is one of the first truly funny things I have seen in a while. Great.

City Council Shooting-Council Member was Prepared
Hozzie replied to Erik88's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
Is said he was a former cop and still works in some capacity for them. I am guessing he isn't considered your normal citizen in relation to carry. "John Elder, a former police officer who currently works as a public information officer for the Minneapolis Police Department -
Not sure on that part of it. I bought mine along with new rims so they were already mounted. With a couple of bars you can do them yourself pretty easily. It isn't as hard as you may think. There is no balancing or anything that needs to be done. I have changed tires myself on other atv's without issue.

I won't even read this. I would also chain the bastard to a tree and leave him until he rots.

There is already a thread started on this. http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/topic/85105-video-of-intruder-with-machete-busting-through-and-getting-shot/ -
Hopefully I don't break the internet with my ugly mug.

NRA $500 Lifetime Membership Again
Hozzie replied to Oh Shoot's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I don't really know what the difference was, I looked at it simply as a donation I would probably make anyway so I might as well get a new sticker. -
NRA $500 Lifetime Membership Again
Hozzie replied to Oh Shoot's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Mine was also $300 a couple of years ago. I was also able to upgrade to endowment member for another $300 about 12 months ago. -
I would durakote it on that type of gun.

I live in Franklin and am not worried one bit about it becoming like Hickory Hollow. This to me is nothing more than a statistical absolute. The larger a city gets, the more crime it has. Nowhere is immune to crime and I am sure in some ways, people here are an easy target because it is a nicer area, meaning that they are too oblivious to the real world around them. When violent crime starts spiking, I will worry about it.

You, your dad, and your family are in my thoughts. I am not a religious person personally, but my parents are. We have open and frank conversations about it quite frequently. While we may not agree with each other on that aspect of life, it has no bearing on our love for each other, and I am sure it is the same for you. Have the conversation so that at least you know you did what you thought was right. I am sure your dad will appreciate the fact you are concerned at that level, even if he doesn't necessarily align with it. Enjoy your time here with each other and get as much of it as you can. Best wishes.

This. There is absolutely no reason to not do it.

Wow, glad you are ok. Could have been much worse. We want to think things like this wouldn't happen to any of us, but it does all of the time. Today wasn't your day thank goodness.

Some fuel for the Costa haters... Japanese Airsoft show
Hozzie replied to TGO David's topic in Training Discussions
The video was a bit over the top, but I think his response was pretty good. -
Looks good, but I couldn't get it for three reasons. 1. I couldn't get in it 2. When I crashed it, they couldn't get me out of it 3. Even if I didn't crash it, I still couldn't get out of it.

Opinions on Hornady Lock-N-Load AP
Hozzie replied to 2006Blackpearl931's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
I have one and it works as expected. As with any machine, it may take a bit of adjusting, but once adjusted, it turns out the rounds. I have the case feeder as well. I have used the Dillons as well and they are good. I think once you get used to either one, they both do the job well. -
I have posted these before, but this is my best buddy, Kennedy. This was just a day running around at the farm. But in reality, it goes between this: and this: Just go get a Golden Puppy. No one can say no to a Golden puppy. I had to put down my Golden a few years back now, but I will have another as soon as I quit traveling so much.

For me, the price will depend a lot on what wood it is. What are you using for the wood? It will also depend on where you plan to sell these. Your audience is going to dictate what you can sell them for. Plan to put them on Craigslist and I don't think you will get a lot of interest at $750. I do a lot of wood working an have thought about selling some things as well, but in the end I find that I couldn't get a price I would want based on the amount of time I put into it. Or maybe I should say, I don't want to put in that much more time to find the right audience to simply make $20 an hour or less. If you have a good location to sell them, then you may sell them as fast as you can make them.
