Yeah. WW2 had a total death toll of 50-70 million including civilians. 10 million per year plus 300 million to begin with? Oh crap...... Oh and just so you can all sleep better at night, Caster's number's are just for males. Double those to include Chinese females of service age.

Duck and cover....

The XDsc is larger than the Glock 26/27. They are about the same length, but the slide on the XDsc is a little taller and the grip is noticably longer. The XDsc is also about 6oz. heavier. I have an XDsc in .40. It's a good gun and I shoot it well, but for carrying, I'd rather have the G26/27. The XDsc is now a nightstand gun with the extended mag in it.

awww.... I was kind of hoping this might go on for another few weeks to see where else it might end up, especially since you already got the replacement item. I use USPS for packages when I really don't care how long it takes. I shipped a package to a friend in Switzerland a few weeks ago. It cost me about $7 with USPS. UPS's cheapest rate was about $122 and FedEx's was $107. Sure UPS or FedEx would have it delivered in about 3 days and it's going on the 3rd week with USPS and it's still not there, but in this case speed wasn't an issue.

That's only because the Human Rights Watch made us stop serving them Pepsi in Gitmo.

Gun Safe Desiccant Silica Gel
monkeylizard replied to graydw1's topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
I picked up my EvaDry at The Safe House in Nashville. He also has the desiccate bags. If you don't have any place local that carries the EvaDry, Amazon has them and most qualify for free shipping. I have the EVA 333 in a 25 gun safe. It's more than enough. I only have to plug it in every 2 months or so. It dries out in about 6 hours while plugged in, but I always leave it overnight just to be sure. A really big safe might use an EVA 500. -
Gun Safe Desiccant Silica Gel

My EvaDry was only about $20 or so. Easier than baking the bagged stuff. -
He'll probably be there too with his camera crew.

I've used the little green metal Ortho Ant-B-Gone bait things from Home Depot with good success for inside ants. Just put one or two along the trail they use on your countertop/floor and wait a couple of days. They'll start becoming fewer in number after 2 or 3 days, then gone completely within a week.

I have an LCP. I don't like the long trigger pull but it's a good gun. I have almost 250 fmj and 30 jhp through it with no failures at all. The only issue I have had is that occasionally I will hit the mag release with my thumb while shooting. My wife hates it. She says it hurts her hand with its recoil. I picked up a kahr pm9 and now the LCP just sits around.

Old, but it fits.

I started marking bills in the Fall of 2007. So far I have marked 248 bills and have had 29 bills hit with a total of 32 hits (some bills get more than one hit). So about a 10% success rate for me. I used to mark them more regularly, now, not so much. I try to mark all my cash before traveling. That way I don't end up with matches 30 miles away. It's kind of a let down to see an email that I got a hit, then to find out it was at a gas station in Hendersonville.

Let's get ready to rrrrrrrumble!?!?!?!?!

Heat is good. Except for the magical Hollywood 20 round revolvers, I put the final battle in Open Range in my top 5 favorites.

Correct on the Bill of Sale. It's not necessary from a legal perspective as far as the transfer of ownership goes. But it shows that the firearm changed hands and on what date. Checking a DL isn't just the age and state, it also shows that the person is who they say they are. Does the name/address they gave you on the Bill of Sale match the DL? If not, something's not right. Some sellers will require an HCP for an FTF sale. It serves the same purpose as a DL, and it also tells the seller that the buyer isn't a felon or otherwise prohibited from owership (at least they weren't when the HCP was issued). An HCP is about as close to going to a shop and having an FFL do the background check as you can get without actually going to the FFL.

Am I the only one with "Bad Bad Leroy Brown" stuck in his head?

Nah, we can't have that. That would make sense. We can't have logic getting in the way of gun laws.

The Clay Target complex on Briley is great for clays, but they don't have a paper target range. Charlie allows them at CHMR. He just asks that you not shoot the OSB/Plywood. He'll setup cardboard stands for shottys. Call ahead and make sure he's got some on hand and that an area is available that he'll allow them.

I talked to Charlie about this the last time I was down at CHMR. I have a shotty I need to pattern for turkeys. He said no problem. Just call ahead and make sure the upper range isn't in use. That's the small one up by his house. If it's available, then he'll setup some cardboard to shoot at. He just asked that shottys not be used on the OSB/Plywood since it's more expensive and the shot tears it up pretty quick.
