Because of Obama, I aspire to sell crack on the corner. Because of Obama, I aspire to knocking up as many girls as I can and not supporting my children. Because of Obama, I aspire to having as many kids as I can so I can stay at home and live of the government. Because of Obama, I aspire to holding up stores and innocent citizens to pay for my drug habit. Because of Obama, ... Oops, did I say that out loud? Nevermind.

Is it just me, or does anyone else see the irony in not being able to carry on Federal property, when it is the Federal Government that came up with the 2nd ammendment?

And the vandalism done at Dallas BAPTIST University, a Christian College I'm assuming. Those vandals are going straight to Hell. I wouldn't want to be around them in a lightning storm.

That reminds me of the epidode of Weaponology (I think) where they had the rifle inside the fake kitty cat. The bad is supposed to see the kitty, which confuses him because it doen't quite look right, then BANG.

Is that pre-tax or after-tax beer?

OK, so I finally got my plinking rifle, bought a scope and new stock for it, and I love it. Now to finish it off, I need a good magazine for it. I want something that will hold at least 25 rounds. Has anybody had any good experience with anything? any ideas of what to stay away from?

Don't they realize that as long as they are producing milk, they are not becoming food?

Stick with MSR or Katadyne, I think they are the best. This on http://www.campmor.com/outdoor/gear/Product___88102 is the latest one by MSR and is getting pretty good reviews. It pumps really fast, something like 3 liters per minute. If you've ever used a filter you know they pump really slow and your arm will definitely be tired after two liters. This one also filters just about everything. Not sure what filter cartridge replacents cost. My son owns a MSR miniworks and it is also quite nice, but for it's price, I'd spend a few more $$ and get the other one. I currently have a Katadyn. It is their top of the line model, but many years old. Still does a good job. The thing costs around $200 new, but replacement filters are $170, so I figure I might as well buy something new. Will probably get the MSR above. Also think about how many gallons a cartridge can filter before replacing. You'll find some filters that are very econoimical, but will only filter a few 100 gallons. Could be OK if you're only using it a few times a year, or it would be bad if you're doing the AT and will use it every day.

I like it. But then again I'm color blind and I think Red looks like Green adn Purple looks like blue. Can't tell you how many purple things I've bought. But really, I do like it.

This is truely sad news. Like many others have already said, I too had never met Mars, but I feel like he was a part of my family. I always looked forward to his posts. His wisdom, wit, experiences, philosophies, knowledge all were a key part of what goes on here. While this board will go on, it will never quite be the same without Mars. Mars, may God bless you and your family.

I bought a new rifle last week, and was getting ready to fill out the warranty / registration card, and got to thinking "Do I really want that info out there?" I know Big Brother already has my info from when I made the purchase, but I was wondering how many people actually fill this out, and why or why not.

Man, that is so sad. Pink Floyd is my all time favorite band. I always said, if I was stranded on an island and could only have one CD to listen too, it would be "The Wall". I guess this will ensure that the band will not get back together again for another album. To Richard: Shine on you crazy diamond!

Yeah, I shoot at ORSA. I just got a membership abut two months ago. Pretty nice place.

Well, I was able to test out my idea for targets today. I took milk jugs, filled them with water and froze them. The idea worked better than I expected. The jugs did not go flying all over the place, stayed standing up and the water didn't drain right out. As an added bonus, there was a satisfying spray of ice each time I blasted them. When I finished, I had a couple jugs of finely crushed ice. For my next trip, I'm going to paint the jugs black before freezing the water. I think the ice will be white and show up nicely against the black paint.

Thanks for the great info here guys! Where is a good place to find a used one? I looked at GunBroker and even the used ones are more than I can find a new one at Wallyworld.

I'm planning on going to the range this weekend, and was going to fill some milk jugs with sand. Then I though about filling them with water and freezing them. Has anyone ever tried this? Will they just shatter? I'll let you know. I just put a couple in the freezer.

I love "Kung Pow! Enter the Fist". The producer took all kinds of old martial arts films, cut them apart, spliced them back together and inserted himself into the scenes to make a hillarious movie. IF you want a night of fun stupidity, definitely rent this. Also, what about "Mystery Men" with Ben Stiller. Also starring Pee Wee Herman as "The Spleen".

I thought SOA was pretty good. I caught it on Comcast On-Demand. No Commercials

I haven't bought an AC/DC album since Back in Black. The last decade or so, every album seems to sound exactly the same.

I think Agent is still the best out there, been using it for ever. There is still a lot of music out there too.

If you are into binary newsgroups, there is lot of interesting gun related stuff in the alt.binaries.warez.educational group. If you have a newsgroup server with a lot of retention, it goes way back. If you've never heard of NNTP, then nevermind

Out of the mouths of babes!

I am thinking about getting a 10/22 for plinking around with, but I also want to customize it, new stock and magazine mostly. Can I just get the cheapest one I can find and replace the stock? I found one locally for around $200 with a plastic stock. It's basically the plain Jane model. Didn't know if there were certain models that are better for customizing, or if the guts were basically the same on all models.

OOOH! It just occurred to me, if you take her shopping, you can spend the whole wad on guns, and then use hers when she's not looking.
