You can keep some tactical scissors at your desk.

I don't see any porn on your list.....   :dirty:       Seriously though, don't forget a good case. Griffin makes one called the Survivor. It;s similar to the Otterbox Defender, but Griffin is a Nashville-based company.   http://www.griffintechnology.com/survivor/original   I hear good stuff about the Lifeproof cases, but they're pricey.

Me too. My status on the web has changed to Lifetime. Just waiting on the card now.

Take some of the "shake-em-up" hand warmers. You can throw them down in your bag to keep warm and they take up very little space/weight.   I'll second the fire sticks. They'll burn long enough to get the real wood burning. A few charcoal briquets might work too.

I'm betting they frame those and mount them in a main hallway at the NRA HQ.  :up:

This.

The last word I heard, the kid was alive and unharmed. The cops had been able to send some of his medications down for him. He was watching TV. I don't see how this can end well for him though. The nut was just looking for a hostage situation for some reason. Well, he has one now.     The history on this guy sounds like some of the neighbors we've had reported on here before.

OK....be honest.....how many of us thought "The guy has a bunker? That's COOL!"

This has been going on since yesterday afternoon. I'm surprised I'm not seeing more coverage on the national news.

BLASPHEMER!!!!!     AMC makes The Walking Dead. Clearly you are mistaken....   :)

It's a cold war era setting for sure. I have it set on the DVR, but I'll let it grab a few episodes before I start watching to see if it's going to make it or not. A review/critic I heard made it sound like it has a bit of a pro-Soviet bent to it. We'll see.

I keep my Wii games and remotes in a Mosin ammo crate. Keeps 'em tidy.

And launch it while standing very very still and under a tree so Argus can't see you.

  I doubt it. There have been some amazing advancements in massive data storage technology. It's too expensive for people, or even most companies to afford, but the gov't doesn't play by those rules. I suspect there is some 3D optical storage stuff in use somewhere. We're talking about petabytes (a thousand terabytes) being stored on something the size of a CD, or smaller. IBM had something in their labs back in the 1980s that could store the library of congress on layers of Mylar (or silicon, I can't recall) the size of a sugar cube and barely be touching the capacity of the thing. Not so impressive today with 128GB of storage in our phones, but this was back when 512KB was considered a lot.   With nanotechnology, who knows what they're working with now. I expect us to soon be referring to terabytes the way we now refer to megabytes. Petabytes or exabytes will be the new "Big" storage number, to then be followed by zettabytes and yottabytes.   Make no mistake...they wouldn't have picked up a new camera with no place to store their vacation photos.

I expect that would depend on the local PD doing the buyback.   Metro Nashville shreds theirs, but the really special ones can find a new life as training items at the police academy. Especially ones with a unique action. They'll use them to train new officers how to safely handle/unload them in case they come across them in the field. Lots of officers are not gun people, and even if they are, they can't know everything.

I have a Thompson Center ICON in .308. Those are in your price range and have 5R barrels.

  My apologies. I thought that went wiithout saying.

    Fixed it for ya! :up:

  FIFY :up:

We might as well go ahead and get this thread started.   We now have a special guest star scheduled to appear. http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/zombie-hines-ward-show-nightmares-erm-amc-walking-191534873--nfl.html

  I'm not so sure about that. I hear Memphis has had better luck with theirs.

According to a friend in Metro PD, nearly everything they get on their buybacks is junk. Every now and then something good shows up, but you'd have to be in the right place at the right time and hope against all odds that the one or two that show up that day would deal with you instead of turning it in to the cops.   Metro's recent buyback in November only netted them 91 guns.   But if an impromptu gun show broke out then word spreads pretty quickly that some people are down there paying cash instead of $25 Dollar General gift cards. Maybe that would make more show up.
