Turtle Man is about as useful as a football bat.

Congrats Duce. Gonna be a great dog.

[quote name='Will H' timestamp='1353089192' post='846663'] Cool, then you should appreciate that absolute truth youtube video about how Hurricane Sandy was manipulated by the government's HAARP project and by Chemtrails. Oh, and the one where it turns out the pope left his hat on an alien's ship. Sorry man, I just could not resist. [/quote] He would have never lost his hat to begin with if it was made from high quality tin foil. It's his own fault!

[quote name='Tactical11' timestamp='1353069786' post='846445'] I have been suggesting to my students to join tgo because of their enthusim for shooting and all the invaluable information available here. They in fact are legitimate members of this group.( by all neans do check their ip addresses) I am humbled and proud that they enjoyed the training and want to share their experience. They do so of their own volition! Had I known that they would be treated in this manner I would not have recommended this website to them. I will be a vendor in two weeks ( or at least had planned on it) [/quote] If they're mistaken, it's certainly an honest mistake. Look at it this way... IF you become a vendor, they will protect YOU in the same fashion. Spamming on TGO isn't that rare, so folks keep their eyes peeled.

[quote name='Razz' timestamp='1353081453' post='846572'] If anyone knows a way to get back the time I wasted clicking the link and then writing this, please send me a private message. [/quote] Nope. It's gone forever.

[quote name='TheBisch' timestamp='1353081094' post='846564'] I figured this would come up sooner or later. I've heard this before. As I mentioned, I don't *really* want to start stocking another caliber... but if I was to go this route, I'd have to sell the P3AT and get out of the .380 caliber altogether. [/quote] I think 9mm is a must-have caliber. Ammo is dirt cheap, and it's a true defensive caliber. I'm pretty much a .45 guy these days, but will never get rid of my 9's. I have an LCP (P3AT knock-off), but don't really consider 380 one of my main calibers. I rarely shoot it, and keep a little ammo for it. Same with the .38's.

[quote name='lshel' timestamp='1353080370' post='846548'] Most women I've known feel more at easy with a J-frame type revolver. My wife has trouble loading pistol mags and pulling the slide back. She shoots pistol good after it is loaded. With a revolver she has no problem. She likes the Ruger LCR and the SW 640 with 38 spec loads. These revolvers are slim and light and can be had with a laser. Good luck. [/quote] I won't let my girfriend shoot my 637, and she handles a 1911 without flinching. Most uncomfortable shooter I own. I carry it every once in awhile because it's small and light. I never shoot it at the range because it kicks harder than my compact .45's.

[quote name='Razz' timestamp='1353080700' post='846557'] Good to know. [/quote] I've seen people use them. Mine live on top of my safe, and never get used. I use an Uplula for all my pistols.

I think you may be missing the one caliber that girls tend to like most, 9mm. For example, my girlfriend... Ruger LCP - Hated it CZ75 P01 - Loved it G23 - Hated it (too snappy) M&P9 - Loved it Her daughter loved the G19. The loading problem is easy. Get her an UpLula. Those cheesy Glock mag loaders might as well be thrown away.

[quote name='Steelharp' timestamp='1353075137' post='846479'] I've never in my life eaten a Twinkie. Not one. I feel partly responsible. [/quote] You better hurry up

[quote name='strickj' timestamp='1353013182' post='846158'] All 50 states now have petitions up. At least 7 have reached the necessary 25,000 votes needed for a response. Here's hoping that all 50 states are allowed to secede. At which point - and only at that point - will we be able to come together and band a union of sovereign states, pool our monies and resources to provide a collective defense and essential services to the union. I propose that we call this uniting of the states: The Union States of America. [/quote] OK, fair warning... I'll be campaigning for Dickie Weed as President of Tennessee. Hell with coming together. We have the means to make lots of bacon fat, and have enough crop dusters to deliver it. Dickie Weed for President. He's tired of this sh#t!

It takes 3/5 to end the filibuster.

I think Wasserman was in the military back when she was still a man.

They're coming out of the woodwork, aren't they? Shoot me now.

[quote name='Capbyrd' timestamp='1352911641' post='845505'] Yeah they do. And I'm sure some other manufacturers do as well. [/quote] Yep. Remington sells all their Chinese ammo thru WalMart

[quote name='Capbyrd' timestamp='1352909049' post='845466'] There are some models that are Wally exclusives. Like the Wally World Special 10/22. Only place you could get the long barreled version. [/quote] You probably got me there. The 10/22 line has lots of "distributor exclusives".

Can't comment on the Trijicon, but I'm a big Eotech fan. I have two of the 512's. Batteries aren't a big deal, because they're AA's. Both of my Eotech guns have on board battery storage.

It will be OK. As OK as it gets, anyway.

[quote name='TNcitizen22' timestamp='1352781448' post='844687'] You are. Our governing body has far more power than any state, handful of states, or legions of people. The only thing a succession would accomplish is massive amounts of death and chaos. I am all for changing the way our country works, but this is simply not the way to do it. Regardless, this whole thing is a futile argument anyways, as the Feds simply do not care about this petition. [/quote] It's not big enough to care about. You need a lot bigger numbers

[quote name='enfield' timestamp='1352778984' post='844663'] And I think they ARE dumb, and arrogant, enough to open the box. [/quote] Well... gonna be interesting

AFIK, nothing in the gun world is made special for Wally. Lots of AR's around town at real gun stores. You might want to hunt around some. The TGO vendors are a great place to start.

[quote name='enfield' timestamp='1352778317' post='844654'] Some day we'll be their biggest problem, and they're well aware of that fact. [/quote] I think they're well aware of that possibility. I also think they're not dumb enough to trigger it.

[quote name='The Dude' timestamp='1352776471' post='844642'] We're gun owners. We're already deemed an enemy of the state. [/quote] Not sure about that. They have bigger problems than us.

[quote name='Caster' timestamp='1352777789' post='844647'] I wanna know how it is that you have lost ALL of your preps. Why were all of your eggs in one basket? You expect me to believe that all of properly prepared persons things were compromised? Sorry but that's First off, a fella that's got his act together has MORE one and by more than one I mean three minimum stores. A main stash may be lost but back up stores should be elsewhere so you aren't left with whizzin in the wind. It starts with all the great goodies at home, then a mortar can or ammo cans stored away, or even a sealed five gallon bucket. You'd be surprised what you can get in a five gallon bucket. Second, if you HAVE put all your eggs in one basket, and your handle breaks causing you to drop all your eggs, well....natural selection says you deserve it. No mercy for the stupid. [/quote] Be nice
