  1. Send the trigger group to Kivarri, you'll be astounded at the difference.
  2. Got a Shield 9 for the wife.  Darn sweet shooting little 9mm.  POI is a little to the left for me, but its fine for her and easily fixed regardless.  Next time PSA runs a sale, get one.

    Club comparison

    Crossville and Athens are both pretty small towns.  I'd say Athens is a little bigger, but not by much.  Since Crossville is up on the plateau, it's a bit  cooler year round.  That means more snow/ice in the winter but not quite so hot in the summer.  I know zip about their gun clubs and will echo wk05's comment about ORSA. 
  4. Chalkboard paint... interesting.  :up:
  5. Sheesh... who wouldn't want an SKS-M? 
  6.     Apparently a 16 yr old can be a blood & guts loon... http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/04/09/franklin-regional-students-reaction/7510627/   Strange times indeed.

    Other hobby

    Bikes.... Photography....
  8. Looks nice!
  9. Shouldn't need to use the brakes much at all. Shift to a lower gear and maintain a steady pace. The majority of vehicles will generate at least 0.7g cornering force. The majority of drivers chicken out at about 0.4g.
  10. Glad she's feeling better.
  11. You should get one and verify that for us. :)
  12. He means when he's bought loose ammo in bulk. My only additional advice is to be aware of how heavy ammo is and make sure the floor you're stacking it on is up to the task. Typical residential wood framed floors are design for 40 lbs/sqft.

    Other hobby

    Legos rock! I'm glad that my kids enjoy them. I have way too many hobbies... motorcycles, guitar, photography, golf, hiking, sleeping, ...
  14. I remember those pics but don't recall hearing any follow up... that really sucks. 
  15. Cool idea.  I've already got one of those lock boxes... hmmmm. 
  16.     I didn't mean to imply that a military sub (LA or VA class, et al) itself could go that deep, it most certainly can't.  At least it won't come back up from that deep.  Most guesses are their test depth is in the 1500-1800 ft range, so crush depth may be 2500 ft.    My assumption is they heard the pings with their passive sonar and possibly sent an ROV down to confirm.  It would be relatively easy to "see" what's down there by banging away with active sonar, but doing so would reveal capabilities we'd rather other folks didn't know. 
  17. I think the engraving on the handle is gorgeous.  The engraving on the blade, not so much.    Though one might think that if one were to make such a high-end patriotic knife, one might have the engraving done in the USA.  And it doesn't specify where the rest of it was made.
  18.     Yep.  You came here for the curves, why are you straightening them?   :squint:                 Yes.  If you see a motorcycle riding slowly and frantically waving at you... be prepared to vacate the road quickly.  There's several spots where an entire tractor and 53' trailer can hide and then magically appear right in front of you.    Personally, I think the 53' trailers should be restricted.  Since they cannot pass that stretch of road in a legal manner, they shouldn't be allowed or an escort should be required.  I seem to recall that it's physically not possibly to pass through legally with a trailer longer than about 30ft. 
  19. I suspect a sub found it. But in order to protect the sub's capabilities, they've just told the surface ships where to look so they can "officially" find it. Keep in mind that they're looking in water roughly 12,000 ft deep.
  20. A pocket knife and a leatherman. Can't carry at work.
  21. Got a Shield 9 for the wife, it's nice.  Got a P3AT for me.  Not as nice as the Shield, but its quite a bit smaller and serves the the purpose. 
  22. Keep in mind that the shiny brass finish fades and peels over time.
  23. Deadbolts are cheap. I'd feel weird without one.
  24. The cover charges have gotten ridiculous. That's the main reason I haven't been to a show in years. Shipping charges are worth it.
