I want one. But I want a longer barrel.

Older 2g phones will be paper weights soon.

Uh oh. Looks like my Dad will have to upgrade. His is probably 7 or 8 years old. -
Purpose of strobe light capability of TLR-1 HL
Clod Stomper replied to Jenny1234's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
That was my first thought too. -
This was in a house I was hired to clean out. It wasn't attached (and, yes, I asked specifically if I was supposed to take it). According to the instructions, it goes in series between a solar collector and storage. But Bing has turned up nothing. Google brought up a Popular Science article from 1984, which I have gotten a chance to read. Is it useful if I am interested in using solar energy? Got any idea of a value? Thanks

MrsMonkey and Dolomite'sWeezy: One for the ladies
Clod Stomper replied to Pete123's topic in Women's Perspectives
She took out two enemy at the same time because she was so fast with her Mosin. Wow. Forget her hands. She must have had gorilla arms. I have to unshoulder a Mosin to work the bolt. I'm not tall, but I'm not super short either. Not like a SMLE. Those really are fast. -
That's interesting. I didn't know the University of Tennessee issues permits. That knowledge would have kept me legal when I went there. I kid, I kid.

If it's under my coat, it's concealed. As is often stated, concealed means concealed. Works both ways. Let's not try to play games as do the leftists. Carry it open and proud.

Installing a front sight insert

Dolomite_Supafly posted a glow-in-the-dark epoxy recipe a good while back. That's what I would fix it with. -
Another good reason for a weapon mounted light
Clod Stomper replied to Tuffus's topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
Probably didn't SAVE the officer. Almost certainly did save his hand from permanent damage. I like the TLR-1. It's bright and rugged. And affordable. -
if I do more than a couple dozen, I use a powder measure. My Lyman has always been accurate. Less than a couple dozen, its not worth setting up the measure. The only reason to use the scale over the measure is the time it takes to set up the powder measure.

Making a non-slip holster. Ideas needed.
Clod Stomper replied to jgradyc's topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
At the gun show last week, I saw IWB holsters with what appeared to be shelf liner sewn to the exterior. Reminded me of this thread. -
Virginia to end reciprocity with 25 states
Clod Stomper replied to Chucktshoes's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I guess next time I visit Virginia (if ever), I'll be sportin' this... http://www.sportsmansguide.com/productlist?k=bandolero+holster -
LA closed all schools due to credible threat
Clod Stomper replied to rugerla1's topic in General Chat
Are you saying that there is an imminent Klingon invasion? That's what I read. Now, where to post this for maximum effect... -
It's either counterbored or the muzzle is severely worn from a soldier with a cleaning rod. Or that is the wrong round. I'm hoping for counterbored. And if that target is true, that's probably the case.
-
I was going to say... What round it shoots is irrelevant. There is just as much machining, perhaps a bit more, in the .22 as in the .357. I'm guessing they use the same frames and probably heat-treated the same (in batches). Plus there is the novelty. I'd like to have one. It should last several lifetimes.

It only takes a few (hundred) idiots to ruin it for everyone. Morons have been flying them around airports, the White House, wildfires, everywhere anyone with any sense would know not to fly a UAV. I've been wanting one too. Sheesh.

Why does everyone use Tapatalk? Is it that much better than the mobile version of the website?

This is the third or fourth article I've seen on the subject of confiscation. They really are crawling out of the woodwork now. I think they feel emboldened, but I can't understand why. I think the far left really does think that it's time to start a "revolution". They really don't understand what they are wishing for. To be fair, this article almost sounds like it making the case against confiscation because it's so far-fetched. But it's the "Daily Kos", so I'm going to take it at face value. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/10/5/1427845/-Effective-Gun-Control-A-National-Semi-Auto-Ban

I also have a RCBS beam scale. Super accurate. An electronic scale really shines when you're checking already-dispensed powder charges. But for trickling charges, I use the RCBS.

What modern firearms do you think will be collectable in the future?
Clod Stomper replied to Erik88's topic in General Chat
Interestingly, I saw two Taurus Curves at the show today. First time I've ever seen one, mush less two, in the wild. I don't know that it will ever be a collectible. But if I knew that they were reliable, and less expensive, I'd carry one. Oh, and I saw a Kel-Tec CMR. Upon further reflection, I think that Kel-Tec collectors may be best off. Their stuff seems to be pretty rare. -
Put up a "buster" sign of sorts, on my storm door.
Clod Stomper replied to K191145's topic in General Chat
Actually, no. Sorry, here is the only place I could find the quote. But he said it. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RYM6UjwwP90 I've always had the best results while being kind. As a matter of fact, we decided to switch to U-Verse because a door to door salesman told us about it. Didn't actually buy it from him, but I listened to what he was trained to say and didn't insult or denigrate him or his mother. After all, he has a job and is trying. -
Heads up about the owner of Shooter's Depot in Chattanooga
Clod Stomper replied to Junkstack's topic in General Chat
As mentioned, I doubt felons would peruse gun shows too much. Too many cops. And even the dumbest criminals know that it's a felony for them to touch a gun. And there is always the chance that they would be recognized. It can happen. A number of years ago, a friend and I were walking around a show in Knoxville. My friend recognized someone who he knew to be a felon. He quietly told someone (show organizer or sheriffs deputy, can't remember). Don't know how it turned out for the guy. We didn't see a dramatic take-down. Just don't know. But that danger is always there for prohibited persons.
