  1. As Garufa said, kroil or other penetrating oil. If that doesn't work, heat.
  2. Cool. Wish I had friends giving away mosins.
  3. I'll reverse part of my statement above... I would shoot my .380 at 50 yds on a range. I'm not sure if I could hit the broad sign of a barn at that range, but it would be fun to find out. But shoot at a person defensively? Only if I didn't have any choice. I have shot my full size 9mm off hand at 200 yds. It took about 10 rds and a spotter to dial in in the Kentucky windage, but it was surprisingly accurate.... roughly 24" group which I thought wasn't bad.
  4. I'd be happy to meet and chat with folks about various things. Anytime I've been to a shoot, we do as much shooting the breeze as shooting at targets.
  5. I guess I miss the point. Of course a bigger gun is better. A rifle is better yet. Artillery is yet another step, though it's kinda heavy to carry around all day. I wouldn't dream of shooting my .380 at 50 yds, that's not what it's for.
  6. Not bad for such a small pistol that's not real easy to shoot well. Good for her!
  7.     A fool and his money are soon parted...
  8.  I can't believe they've left the museum open and only closed that one area.  I wouldn't go anywhere near it.  Mammoth Cave is just down the road from there... it's prime area for sink holes. 
  9. We got my 6 yr old one of these for Christmas ...  http://www.hobbytown.com/Shop/-Ares-Chronos-CX100-Ultra-Micro-RTF-Heli-w/Camera/   It's pretty easy to fly, but we haven't tried out the camera yet.  It's fairly quiet but as Dolomite said, you'll have to spend a pretty penny to get one with adequate range and endurance to do any real scouting with it.
  10. Best I am aware, carry is currently prohibited in Chattanooga city parks regardless of signage and the proposed law would make it legal, regardless of signage. 
  11. Sorry for your loss.   Good advice... get a will and at least a modest life insurance policy, especially if you have kids.  In TN a will needs to witnessed and notarized to be valid.  If the will isn't valid and the heirs dispute what's in it, you'll end up in court.  And if you think a funeral is expensive...

    Nice. A friend learned that if you bleed on nurse's paperwork at the ER, you get in a lot faster.
  13. You need a hosting service such as photobucket or smugmug. If you're interested in smugmug, I'll send you a discount code.
  14.     Yep, it's fading fast. Likely to be some nasty icy spots when all the runoff freezes over night.      edit... yep, definitely some slick spots this morning.  Talked to Dad yesterday afternoon, he said they had 10" at the house in Soddy and lost power for about 18 hrs.  It came back on while we were talking and he said... "You should have called hours ago!"  :lol:
  15. http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/topic/75456-who-knew-liberty-safes-must-be-making-front-doors-now/   :)
  16. Cool.  Didn't know parts were available to build one from scratch. 
  17.     Cabela's makes Gander Mtn look like a Dollar General.  I've bought a fair bit of stuff from Cabela's over the years and it's all been first rate. 
  18.         What is it about dogs and snow?  My dog loves it too.  She ran around like a lunatic while I shoveled the driveway.  Not that my tossing shovel-fulls of snow at her had anything to do with that...   :whistle:
  19.     I know the ceiling isn't insulated and I doubt the walls are.  Builders are so f'ing cheap.  :shake:
  20.     Hmmmm.... that could be dangerous. 
  21. Was 3" last night before bed.  Appears to be about 5" here now and still coming down, though it's pretty light at the moment. 
  22.     Spit on it first.  ;)
  23.     I just installed this kit in my doors.  http://www.doorinsulationkit.com/   Super easy to install with the exception of the top panels, which are a pain because of the bracing across the top of the door.  I'll be honest and say I'm a little disappointed in the result.  My garage stays a few degrees warmer, but it's not the 10-15 deg I was hoping for.  I'll reserve final judgement until the summer.  My doors face south and it gets blazing hot in the summer.  I'm hoping they'll do more in that regard. 
  24. A friend's mother lives within a house or two of this location.  No damage to her house, but she said it was a big boom. 
  25. Next time put the sight in the freezer for a while and heat the slide up.  It'll probably slide right in.
