  1. If you join the domain. I work from my house via hardware VPN client. None of my machines log into the domain. They can see my machines, but they're not snapped into the Borg cube .
  2. Most of my rings aren't lapped. It certainly doesn't hurt anything. I use the torque guidlines that came with my Wheeler fat wrench. May be the best tool purchase I ever made. I do own a lot of optics.
  3. I sent them an email as well.
  4. This isn't classic Glock butt if it really went off when he dropped it. It IS similar in one way. He really needed an extra hole in his butt. Good thing it was his butt, and not the person next to him.
  5. This. We use imaging software, and keep images for all the various hardware packages in the building. Because it's a business, all work data lives on file servers that are backed up daily. If something creeps into a machine (almost always sales people), we give the machine an enema, and reconnect them to their data. We maintain a large number of machines this way (probably over 100). It's not cost effective in terms of hardware cost AND user efficiency to use seperate machines for browsing. If we can keep that many machines, all that interact heavily on the internet, with a couple of IT guys, you should be able to adapt it to your own use. I don't know what kind of code you're doing. Any code development I've seen requires it's own incremental backup scheme. When new code gets "sick", it's almost always self-inflicted
  6. If the guy's story is true, it's one of those rare circumstances where the gun really did have a mind of its own. It's fortunate that it found the right target. I won't carry a gun that's not drop safe.
  7. I'm a lefty, but have always shot right handed. It's an eye thing. If I did shoot lefty, I would think ambi pistol controls would be more important than anything on a long gun.
  8. Yeah. You need some more Glocks
  9. Lester, Have you thought about using Ghost? I'm sure you're scrupulous about backing up your code anyway. It doesn't take much time at all to restore from a Ghost image.
  10. I'm covered with Hogdon and Alliant. Bullseye, H110, Reloader 7, Reloader 15, Varget.
  11. Yep. Bass Pro in Nashville is real high. They're close to me, and wind up getting me every once in a while on a Sunday. They have a decent inventory, just outrageous prices.
  12. I stopped in and met the guys yesterday. I think its a GREAT inventory for a new shop. No reloading stuff yet, except some brand new Dillon presses.
  13. I've had good luck wit ALL my BCG's, even the cheap ones. As long as they're properly staked.
  14. I know. I know. Real men cast their own bullets
  15. All my ammo is pretty. It all looks factory. I don't load skanky brass. I'll buy new before I do that.
  16. That's fair enough, Brian. In my case, ammo cost was a significant part of my choice go move more heavily into .45 ACP. Bad news that the insurance underwriters spoiled the party. I have 700 rounds of hand loads, and another 200 coming. Any way you can get a recipe from those underwriters? If they know how to load .45 so it will tear up steel targets, I need to make some! . In the big picture, I think most folks shoot factory ammo. I doubt that it will dampen your success much. Good luck with the venture!
  17. Fix in the field is a real expensive process. I'm not involved in gun manufacturing, but have been heavily involved in electronics manufacturing at all levels. It's true that things can slip thru the cracks, but can't imagine anybody doing it by design. By the time you total up the cost of support personnel, shipping, and replacement parts, it's a loser. My guess is that the OP's problem is QC related. I hope so for S&W's sake. Nobody wants to hear that they made 10,000 copies of an engineering mistake.
  18. You know what I'm saying. A whole building full of your next door neighbors .
  19. Not one. Vanderbilt Medical Group in Green Hills. Those folks are wearing Obama underwear.
  20. His current lawyer was going to use it because it eliminates the jury. Guess he changed his mind. I get notifications from those guys via Facebook when they release any information. The strategy WAS to go through the stand your ground process first.
  21. I went to the doc today, and wore my NRA Tshirt. It's libtard central. Didn't even get a funny look.
  22. Could be a couple of things. I'm betting it's because they have to appeal to unseat the judge. With stand your ground, the judge decides the outcome, not the jury.
  23. Naw. Some folks just can't work a 1911. I don't hold it against them
  24. I can wish. Starting to look more like a plain old shootout with the cops, with strays hitting a civilian or two.
