Major Kong

I despise resellers and remember most of the names that got really active on the Classifieds around December of last year. Me and my dollars won't forget any time soon.

Not watching the news calms me down.

Hmm, since I went there today at lunchtime and the doors were locked and no one was answering the phone I'm guessing the grand opening is not in fact September 9th at 9am.

Strelcevina was the only person I ever blocked here. Man do I miss that little socialist bastard.

I like my Endura quite a bit.

Gorgeous! Congrats!

Major Kong was the Slim Pickens character in the movie Dr Strangelove. I like the movie and grew up in the Cold War era. I've used it on several forums for the past five or six years.

Hey guys, hoping someone more knowledgeable than me will be able to help out.   I was shooting one of my 1911s today and started getting erratic extraction issues. Out of an eight-round magazine I'd have two or three that would eject either straight up or up and to the rear (two actually hit me squarely between the eyes). The others would eject to the right rear. This was consistent over five or six magazines. The gun's accuracy and function was unaffected. It is an internal extractor and is a higher end 1911 if that makes any difference.   So, does my extractor need to be replaced? Tuned? Any other possible issues anyone can think of?   Thanks in advance for the help.

That's great Mark. I've been looking for a safe for a while and your location is just a couple of miles from my work. See you next week.

44mag.com has been good to me in the past as well. Brownells has quite a few things in stock right now and a free shipping coupon on $199 or more (code is LAB).

Yep, just a few miles from my house. Great food and service.

Thanks to reading this thread this morning i ended up sitting at Bella Roma for lunch. My waistline thanks you TGO...

Or Memphis.

I got a few of them from Brownells. I haven't run them yet but they appear to be the same quality as my regular pmags. To me they are more of a novelty than a practical need. Until the zombies or the liberals arise that is.

Like most if America he didn't know anything about it. Says he was alerted to it by a listener from this area. He is going to have the Christian and Newsome families on the air next week.

I dont take any phone solicitations period. A shame our society is so ripe with a-holes.

Man, that is a beauty. Congrats!

Absolutely no way that's for real, IMHO.

Is anyone else getting sick of seeing a new news-story every day about a pack of black teens attacking a lone white person? If there was ever a time and a reason to be armed and alert/aware this seems to be it.

If its going to happen let's go ahead and get it over with so my kids won't have to worry with it.

I was in before and I'm in now. Sweet!

Let me know buddy, sounds great.

After a little more research I think I've ruled out the VCOG. I have looked a little at the Vortex and the higher end Bushnell stuff and I'm impressed with both. Thanks for all the input folks, keep it coming...

I've got a Shrike and have met and talked with the owners of the company. Top notch organization all the way.

I know optics questions have been beaten to death but I'm going to ask again. I recently picked up a SCAR 17 and want to put a good set of optics on it. I don't typically use cheap optics but I don't shop in the upper ranges either. What I've found is that the deeper I get into researching these optics the more confusing it gets. I'm not going to be hunting with this gun and I'm not trying to take it out to 1000 yards. I want some good clear, reliable optics that will do whatever I ask of them within reason.   Right now my top two contenders are the Nightforce 2.5-10 x 32 NXS and the IOR 2-12 x 36 Spartan. The Trijicon VCOG 1-6 x 24 is also intriguing but it's not available yet and I'm not sure what the street price will actually be. The higher end stuff (Schmidt and Bender, etc) is out of my budget.   Anyone have any personal experience with the above optics or some sage advice relating to purchasing higher end optics? Any other suggestions that I'm missing?
