What does it cost to bid? Is FFL/TICS required?

Wow.

Actually, I think getting a new upper is a better idea. I was just letting you know who can do the modification. Just depends on how much you want to spend.

Here's some excellent info on this topic... Cornered Cat - Table of Contents

Coal Creek Armory can do it.

I find it surprising that the Armada doesn't have some form of traction control for this very reason. Adding something heavy to the back will help. Older vehicles are easier to drive in the snow than newer ones because their tires are generally much narrower, they're heavier, and they have a lot less power.

My first handgun was (is) a P85 MKII. It still runs great with who knows how many rounds down range.

If you don't like tipping EVERYONE, don't go to Jamaica. Otherwise, carry a big wad of $1 bills. My wife and I went for our honeymoon. I was nearly broke before we got to the resort. There was a guy getting your bags off the conveyor who wanted a tip ($2). There was another guy who carried them to the spot where they herded you onto the bus to your particuarly resort... he got a tip ($2). There was another guy who loaded the bags onto the bus who got a tip ($2, my last $1 bill). There was an attendant on the bus who brought you a drink ($10 for two $3 drinks, last $10 bill). The bus driver got a tip when he dropped you off ($5, last $5 bill). The bus attendant unloaded your bags and got another tip (I told him to split the driver's tip... he wasn't happy). The bell-hop at the resort carried your bags to the check-in desk wanted a tip (I told him I was out, but I'd tip him after I changed my travellers checks... he wasn't happy.). A different bell-hop carried your bags to your room (told him the same as the other... he also wasn't happy). The resort itself had "no tipping" policy, but service magically changed from mediocre to excellent with the addition of a few $. They also allowed various vendors on the property and nearly everyone who did anything while off property wanted tips. That was about the only negative part... otherwise we really enjoyed it. As for tipping at restaurants, typically 0 - 20% depending on the service. A good attitude can compensate for a slow kitchen. Very good or very bad service is pointed out to management. I don't normally tip other people unless I think they went above and beyond. I bring my own tools and install my own batteries and wiper blades. I'll give my barber a small tip when I get my Christmas haircut, that's about it.

A Freudian slip? Sounds like a good plan. Though the 91/30 ain't exactly a flyweight.

The more I look, I think this. There are holes in the first pic, whatever is behind the holes just happens to be a similar color. They couldn't be bothered to stick a light or something in there to make it more obvious. Someone should buy one so we can verify.

Plus they actually work for a living.

Interesting. Thanks for the info.

These photos are interesting. SERO - GM6 Lynx The 3rd one shows marks like the rounds are just bouncing off whatever that is. Not good when it says it's used to repel "light armored vehicles". The next photo shows holes but looks like it's key-holing, which indicates it's got a velocity/weight/twist problem.

Bill's Outpost typically has the best handgun prices around. $50 or more below everyone else on the usual suspects.

Move the flashlight to the other side. You may be able to position the light/grip such that you can reach the tail cap with your thumb.

Yep, contact TWRA. Zoos and other such places may take "reasonably fresh" road-kill deer to feed their animals.

It means there's large pictures in this thread, if you're on a dial-up internet connection (56k speed), be prepared to wait a while.

Care to comment on the duration of immunity from the vaccine? I have two young children so we get the shot every year (the only year I didn't, I got the flu). I've seen/heard conflicting info regarding the duration of immunity. Some places say 3 months, some 6 months...?

.380 ACP is simply a 9mm "short". Just like .22LR vs. .22 short. "Kurz" is German for "short".

Smart choice. As stated, the chemicals involved are quite unpleasant on a good day.

The engineer in me doesn't like the title... energy transfer is quite real.... but shot placement is obviously the most important.

Um.... I think that's 4 reasons. Sucks getting old, doesn't it?

Cost is king for commodities. Other things you want to get touchy-feely with before buying, and I'm willing to pay (a little) more for that privilege. But I'm not willing to bend over just to keep a local shop in business. My biggest complaint is clueless gun sales people who think they know what they're talking about. They're easy to spot, they talk more than they listen.
