  1. Well that is the most absurd thing I've ever seen. If I put Mercedes badges on my Ford Escape and find a buyer that will accept it as a Mercedes, does that make it an actual Mercedes? Come on. And you don't have to agree with me, that's fine. But I can still have friendly debate with my friend.
  2. I say. Basically, if Randall didn't call his #1 a bowie, but rather just a fighter, then it isn't a bowie. Randall patterned some bowies but they all have the same design feature that most associate with a bowie, an exaggerated clip. Bo Randall is kind of the father of the modern custom knife. Or at least he and Bill Scagel (whom Bo drew lots of inspiration from) are. If Randall didn't call it a bowie, I'm not calling it a bowie. And if you are saying that Randall is wrong, you take it up with him in the next life, cause I'm not.
  3. It's a pretty knife E. No doubt about that. But I will continue the previous discussion we had. It's not a bowie. That is more of a Randall #1. It's a beautiful pattern, but not a bowie.
  4. I own a Vortex and I can't remember if it is a diamondback or a crossfire but its a smaller scope that I use on a 22 rifle. I had to send it back because the turret came apart. They took good care of me and returned my scope in short order. A good friend owns a first generation Viper and it is hazy around the edges at full magnification. They claim its normal. Even though that is all of my personal experience with Vortex, I still think they make good stuff for the money and you can't really go wrong.
  5. buy some ulticlips
  6. Although I currently own more SR9 mags, I immediately swapped it to the Glock mag well. I'll be buying a few 33 rounders for it. I also need to order a three lug for it.
  7. Shoot Point Blank had a sale over the weekend that I couldn't pass up. Haven't gotten it to the range yet.
  8. I'm still trying to talk myself into one of the Springfield/CZ models. I want it badly. But the price has made me shy away. They run 650 or so from what I've seen.
  9. I have no clue what you are talking about. It was terrible because they wrote in a bunch of crap that didn't happen to try and make it more dramatic. It didn't need that. It didn't need to be a revenge story.
  10. American Sniper
  11. A ton of the CA staff is over at the Daily Memphian now. https://www.dailymemphian.com
  12. That's the because demand still outpaces supply. The only things that have really seen any decline are current production.
  13. A. Did you know that before computers, people could do complex math equations with only pencil and paper? It's amazing! B. What about them? Not all radiation is harmful. C. The same way that the rest of the equipment and crew did. D. Crappy camera tech? E. You will go to your grave correct. The first man stepped foot on the moon in 1969, which is not the early 1960's.
  14. Story is that NASA officials knew that Buzz wouldn't be able to handle the attention and that's why he was second rather than first out.
  15. no such thing
  16. Without getting into too much detail, I took a pay cut and then lost a second income and a third adult with a child and no income moved into my house. I've haven't had the money for it in quite some time.
  17. I'm very jealous!
  18. I've been dealing with it in my house for almost a year now. I've spent a good part of this year in Al-Anon meetings. All of it is hard but I wouldn't call it selfish. It's easy for us to say that but its I don't think any part of this has to do with being selfish. The first step is admitting that we are powerless over alcohol. Alcohol, or drugs as the case may be, have control. The addict certainly isn't in control and the friends and family around them definitely aren't either. I'm very sorry for your loss and hope that your friend's four year old will be okay. That's a really crappy attitude to have towards those of us with loved ones that struggle from addiction. I'd really like to hear exactly what I've done wrong in my life. Perhaps you can shed some light on that for me.
  19. I didn't say they are all bad. I said that the job is bad and so cops get a bad reputation from that. And how am I wrong about politicians? The politicians pass whatever law they want, and then the cops enforce that law. When the 2nd Amendment finally gets repealed, who do you think will be coming for your guns? It will be the police. And they will just be doing their jobs. The further into this social experiment called America that we get, the less and less freedom The People have.
  20. I disagree with this part the most. The job is what gives them the bad reputation. Remember, they have sworn an oath to use deadly force against the people at the command of politicians.
  21. https://wreg.com/2017/07/24/wreg-investigation-leads-to-exoneration-of-brownsville-woman-police-accused-of-carrying-a-stolen-gun/
  22. Good thing you were white or it wouldn't have gone that way at all.
  23. No I don't. And that's my point. There shouldn't be any law that punishes the victim of a crime. And you may not have seen it but I literally linked you to an article that says its happening. If you are going to punish the people that you are supposed to be responsible to for creating opportunity, then you should also punish yourself. But in a perfect world, they aren't punishing citizens either. Unfortunately, we just don't live in that world.
  24. Having your car stolen or having stuff stolen out of your car, either way, you are the victim. And you are punished for being the victim.
  25. City Ordinance then. Did you read the story I linked above?
