  1. I trapped quite a few of them when I was growing up. My granny finally got sick of helping me clean em and made me do it myself, but her and grandpa didn't seem to get tired of helping me eat em.
  2. believe it or not, they don't taste bad, if you parboil them, then bake them in the oven with some bbq sauce
  3. If I was a defense attorney and I kept a habitual drunk driver out of jail and he plows into a minivan and kills someone a few weeks later, I couldn't sleep at night. If the arrest was unfounded and he never had a DUI before or ever again, I'd feel like I was doing good. I don't spend a lot of time in court, but I hear about a lot of the former cases for it not to be common.
  4. Oh yeah, because all lowlife DUI lawyers are just like John Adams....right!? There's a difference between defending an innocent party against false charges and exploiting the legal system to allow scumbag drunk drivers to continue to go out night after night endangering the lives of decent people. The percentage of innocent clients they defend is statistically insignificant compared to their client base and we all know it. The court system is rigged to protect innocents from prosecution, not the other way around. Also, I specifically called out DUI lawyers, not all attorneys, so don't get all butt-hurt and try acting like I said all layers are low-lifes.
  5. Oh, don't get me wrong, I have no love for those lazy pieces of %&#* either, but at least a plea is better than not-guilty (i.e. no punishment at all). I still despise those defense attorneys who specialize in DUI law even more, though. I'd be more proud if my kid became a janitor than one of these low-lifes.
  6. every time I hear a story about a DUI lawyer getting some alcoholic 3-time drunk driving a-hole off over some technicality, it makes me sick...lousy ambulance-chasing douchebags
  7. As Beck suggested in the video, we need to just turn our back on this region unless they attack us or our allies. These people are never going to be trusted allies, regardless of what we do.
  8.   I couldn't agree more! I'm not saying we should drag anyone who's had a single beer out in the woods and shoot them, if they're caught driving. However, drinkers have the burden of knowing both the legal limit and their own limit and not exceeding either. If they can't/don't, the penalty is already no where stiff enough, IMO.
  9. I actually like her gun okay. It's very comfortable and reliable. It's just not very accurate.
  10. Imagine if you Mexican carry that gun while riding that bike? Nothing worse than a sticky motorcycle seat.
  11. hilarious, looks similar to the correspondence I had with someone trying to use the PayPal scam on me for an iPhone I had listed for sale on Craigslist.
  12. Well...it's a Springfield XD-S, not a S&W, and it may not even be defective. They just can't risk not recalling them all. Nonetheless, I listened and printed the RMA label and boxed it up. It's going for a trip tomorrow. So, I'm actually walking around with a CZ P-01. I'm flattered you're so worried about me and my defective POS pistol. Do you feel better now?
  13. My wife's favorite is a Bersa Thunder .380, so there's no accounting for taste.
  14. If you had over 600 rounds through yours and had seen no sign of the reported issue would you still send it back amidst the rush? My only skepticism is in the fact that I haven't heard of anyone having the issue they are recalling it for. I know I haven't.
  15. Mine is in the range too, but I'm gonna hold off a bit and see how this thing shakes out.
  16. Of all the things you've posted, this is my favorite thing you've made yet. Very nice! If you had to make another to sell, what do you reckon it'd cost somebody?
  17. My only hope is that in the long run the poor girl remembers neither the assault nor seeing what her father did. Both could leave painful scars on her psyche. Nonetheless, kudos to the grand jury for refusing to return an indictment. Scum like Flores don't deserve to be breathing the same air as decent folks.

    I can't recall whether it's 3 years or 4 years without Googling it.
  19. That's a darn good point and bringing the gun to midline to take advantage of larger muscle groups definitely takes the gun "out of the box" where you should be operating.
  20. I have to agree with Breaking Bad and Sopranos making my short list of best TV series of all time. Game of Thrones has to sneak in there somewhere too.

    CZ-75 type pistols

    You're the first knowledgeable person I've known that will vouch for their accuracy. Good to know. You have me reconsidering how many of those accuracy complaints come from gun newbies and/or the guys I see at the range with holes splattered all over a 12" target from 5 yds. LOL Curious, did the wife's Witness with replacement sights still come in under the CZ price? I have a helluva time finding CZ sights without going online. Were the target sights CZ compatible?
  22. Excellent way of explaining that, leroy.
  23. I wouldn't even try the reduced power recoil, if it were up to me. It may make it easier to rack the slide and assist with this issue, but you're just introducing more abuse to the slide stop, barrel link, and barrel legs. You'll get more peeing over time by reducing the spring weight and damage your gun. About the powder charge...going from 4 grains to 5 grains of Bullseys costs a mere $0.003 (3 tenths of a penny) per round. So, cost savings isn't a realistic factor. I agree with most that this should be your culprit. 5.0 gr of Bullseye with a 230 gr fmj should just get you over 700 fps and enough power to compress the standard spring and cycle the action.
  24. I taught my wife, daughter and sisters to use the technique in the link peejman posted. My sisters are rather petite lil thangs and lack any semblance of upper body strength. Both could lock the slide back on any of my guns once they stopped trying to muscle the slide rearward instead of anchoring the slide and pushing the frame forward.
  25. At what point should I have stopped hoping Walt gets away with it all? I mean, I recognize he's a bad guy, but, but....
