Will Carry

I would recommend a good alarm and surveillance system with cameras and motion sensors.

Smith and Wesson model 36 3" square butt, loaded with 5 thermo nuclear warheads.

  My father, as an 18 year old US Army rifleman, spent six weeks fighting the Battle of Manila. He never spoke much about it but he had nightmares the rest of his life. One thing he did say was that the Philippians were tough fighters.  He said "They were the toughest SOBs he has ever seen."   The Japanese did bad things in Manila. Unspeakable things.

The Germans counter attacked our beach head at Anzio, Italy with the intention of driving us back into the sea. The fighting was brutal hand to hand. The German attack looked like it would reach the sea when the US Navy stepped in and created a rain of steel from their big guns. The German attack was broken. The US Navy did the same thing previously at Salerno and Gila. They would do it again at Normandy.

Good drivers in Tennessee.

I'm sure he had a legal right to carry but if I had been the cop, I would have tazed him anyway. That is why I'm not a cop.

"I just walked out of the Quicky-Mart and there he was! He coming right at me!"

They gave his name and address plus a resume.  I don't think it was a good idea in this day and age, but privacy is a thing of the past.

Trucks are no longer just a working man's vehicle. Now they are a status symbol. If it has 4 doors and only a 4 foot bed, it's not a truck. It's an SUV without a trunk lid. If you can't put a 4 x 8 sheet of plywood in it, it's not a truck. If you are a Suburban Warrior with a LD complex, then a big expensive truck will compensate. 

Why is it that a space ship can sneak across the entire galaxy undetected, but when it flies over Billy Bob's bean field at night it has to turn on it's running lights? The Simpson cartoon was not from 2000, but you all probably already know that.

Has anyone seen or shot the new Ruger 10 shot GP-100 in 22LR? It weights in at 42 oz.

Hillary talks about the "NRA and the powerful gun manufacturers lobby" That's one of the biggest lies that keeps getting repeated over and over.  The power of the NRA is it's 5 million voting members, not a powerful gun manufacturers lobby.  You won't find any gun manufacturers on Forbes fortune 500 list.  Liberals just say that to frighten people. The truth is that their are around 100 million registered voters in this country who keep and bare arms. When push comes to shove, those 100 million will do the right thing. I know plenty of liberals who have armed themselves since 2008.

I have stopped carrying my little 380 in favor of my full size 1911 and three magazines. The 1911 is surprisingly slim.

Never had one single failure to go bang with my Gen 4 19. Accept the time I accidently loaded a 380 round in it. It fired but didn't eject.

I have a model 36 J frame, Sig P-238 and a Ruger LC9s. They are all 100% reliable but I carry the LC9s mostly. The P-238 is a honey but being single action I carry it IWB in an N-8-Squared holster. The Model 36 I love to carry but the LC9s fits my pocket better. Don't get the LC9 hammer fired unless you like a trigger pull longer than "War and Peace". The LC9s has a sweet trigger. I also have a North American Arms, Sidewinder in 22 magnum that fits my pocket like a pocket knife. I use it as a BUG but pray that I never have to use it. It works well and is surprisingly accurate. I just don't think that is what you are looking for.

I feel your pain. "You're not going to carry your pistol to the park are you? YOUR GRANDCHILDREN WILL BE THERE!" I have people in my family that just don't understand. I tell them: "It is perfectly legal, I have had lots of training and my grandchildren will be well protected." My wife now understands why I carry, now she carries too.

In this day and age there is no such thing as privacy. I don't think I would appreciate having photos of me posted on Faceplant. Since I have never been on Faceplant, I'd probably never know.

Seldom seen Island Creek! I have been lucky enough to catch Island Creek at 9" and 12" on the put-in gauge.  That was two times in 15 years of paddling the Obed in March. It is a wildcat of a creek.

A paddler! I spent many a day exploring the Obed River basin. Here is a picture of me at Rock Garden on the Obed. That area is one of the most beautiful places in the USA. That is the Wartburg Jail. You do not want to be on the wrong side of the law in Morgan County. I could tell some stories about our adventures.......

I went in to this jail once to talk with the county Sherriff about some break-ins in the area while we were kayaking. I always thought the plaque on the door was simple and to the point. This used to be a "must do" photo for those long haired, hippie type, kayakers. (My friends) . The sheriff was a great guy. The place we had to park our cars for a trip down the Obed River was covered with busted auto glass. Instead of taking a chance on getting broke in to, I walked down the road and began knocking on doors. The first three houses basically slammed the door in my face. The next house had a yard full of young'uns and the lady answered the door in a wheel chair. I told her about the break-ins at the take out at Obed Junction and told her we would gladly pay her $10 per vehicle if we could park in her yard. She was delighted and for the next three years we would pay her to park and our vehicles were never bothered. The Sheriff said that was the best thing we could do and they were aware of the break ins at Obed Junction and they had park rangers patrolling the area.

It's called "The Good Stuff". I use in all my firearms. Spray it on, then wipe it off.

You're going to need a steady supply of 22 magnum to feed that hungry beast. Let us know how it shoots.

"When Cree Research invented the new square LED light, they made all other flashlights obsolete." I have a collection of flash lights almost as big as my pocket knife collection. I like the old filament bulbs that give off a yellowish light rarer than the white light of today's flash lights. The new square LED by Cree is the best thing I have ever seen in flashlight technology. You will see more and more flashlights with a Cree LED.

Would buying a Colt SA be an investment? Would it's value increase with time?  The value of my Coly 1911 seems to have increased slightly over 7 years.

My Ruger Bisley Vaquero is not only one of my favorite plinking pistols, it is one of my most accurate pistols.  It has a transfer bar so you can load six rounds and it is Ruger tough.  I hope one day to get a Colt SA.
