  1.     Ah.  Sounds like a trigger job gone wrong.    And yes, make sure it's unloaded before you put it in the case. 
  2.     ... and now you've seen it 3 times!  ;)
  3. Get mad at the bolt, jerk it back hard. Mosins tend to be happiest with a heavy hand. If that doesn't work, could be how you're loading the clips. Apparently there's a right and wrong way to do it (I didn't know that until a minute ago). If that still doesn't work, do a little googling on rimlock and the interrupter.
  4. Am I the only one a little suspicious?  Shot himself in the chest with a rifle while removing it from the case?  Really?  :squint:
  5.   That's mostly true.  It is illegal to carry a handgun.  A HCP is termed a defense to that statue.  You didn't think it would be simple, clear, and easily understood, did you?   What it means is the cops can stop anyone carrying a handgun.  If you have a HCP, they tell you to have a nice day.  If not, they tell you to have a seat in the back of this car. 
  6. Best source I know of for concise, reasonably up-to-date information...  http://www.handgunlaw.us/
  7.     But his method of "doing something" just makes the situation(s) worse.    It's like when little kids decide to help you rake leaves.  They think they're helping but in reality they're just scattering the leaves everywhere.  Their lack of skill just makes the problem worse.  Its not their fault that they have no skills, but I wouldn't expect a kid to know that.  However, I would expect a "professional" to. 
  8. Congrats!  My older boy was very much the "cone head" for his first couple weeks.  It's since rounded out nicely and is hard as a rock...   Take lots of pictures.  If your daughter is anything like my kids, you'll be so sleep deprived that you won't remember otherwise.  Neither of mine slept for more than 4 hours for 6 weeks.  It was 3 months before they slept through the night consistently.  It's rough but it gets better.    Get ready for your perspective to change dramatically on a number of things.  You'll notice stuff you never thought about before.  All manner of things.   Parenthood is LOTS of work and more frustrating than you can imagine at times, but its great.  When I walk in the door after work and they both come running yelling "daddy!".... yeah, that's the good stuff. 
  9.   Ditto.  I know mall cops don't get any respect, but I don't see that this guy does much to earn any.    He needs to work on his conflict resolution skills. 
  10.     Yep.  Given how much a gator that big would weigh, the bumper of that truck would be dragging the ground.  It doesn't even appear to be sagging at all.  Fake.
  11. My first thought was a heavy caliber lever gun.  .45-70 or bigger. 
  12.   Amen to that.  Would have been fun to turn the tables and have the cops remove her from the property for trespassing.      My wife put a picture on facebook of my (at the time) 4 yr old holding my 91/30 that was about twice as tall as he was.  Glad I didn't end up in jail....  :shake:
  13.     Right.  Most ammo manufacturers are very easy to deal with regarding defective ammo.  Especially when you're not calling from the hospital saying your $2000 gun blew up. 
  14. Actually two of these things are not like the others.  The other guy must not have the tactical beard.

        Yes, you do.  :)   Photobucket is the most common option.  If you'd like a smugmug account, I can get you a discount.  It's a cheap way to store and back up your photos.
  16. Yikes!  Hope the surgeries and his recovery goes well.
  17. Bummer.  Doing the whole thing in one shot may be out, but section hiking or weekend backpacking is always an option.
  18. News this morning said its mostly out now.  60 houses gone and another 10-15 damaged.
  19. I've been very happy with my PT145.  They don't make it anymore, but the 24/7 compact is essentially the same gun. 
  20. Sweet!  Where did she get them?
  21.     "It's complicated".  Heh.  I was in a relationship like that once.  Trust me, it only gets worse.             When I designed parts in the auto industry, Kia & Hyundai (same parent company) were two of my customers.  They were beyond horrible to deal with.  I believe most of the issues I had were rooted in cultural differences, but geez.... what a total PITA.  They didn't have the first clue what they wanted, but they wanted it right f-ing now.  When you attempted to explain to them repeatedly why what they asked for wouldn't work, then gave it to them anyway, and it didn't work, they'd be pissed.   Ugh.  After dealing with them for a couple years I swore I'd never own one of their cars.             They put a belt on the V6 for NVH reasons.  It's quieter and smoother than a chain.

    Cool.  I've read about them but never seen one in person.  I'd guess it's worth $600-$700. 
  23. Here's the new fashion craze.... http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=drone-proof-anti-infrared-apparel
  24.     How are they liable for intentional misuse of the products they sell?  It even says so on the web site.  In that case, the oil filter manufacturer would be just as liable.         Nothing a little duct tape couldn't fix.   Just sayin'...
  25.   Who's the car for, you or her?  A stick is the only way to go in a small car.
