I carry a Glock, you mean it needs to be cleaned?

My wife brought me some home this evening. I am excited to try them.

Both of my dogs are trained by vocal and hand signal. I won't use any other method. Bandit, the older one knows more than 30 commands by vocal and hand signal, all commands are trained by both, and now followed by either. Just make sure you pick simple ones they don't have to be universal from one trainer to the other. The 'okay' sign is sit. 'Stop' is stay. I pat my chin, she barks, I pat my cheek, she kisses me, I pat my hips, she jumps up and hugs me. I have a Youtube video of her following my commands, she is truly a brilliant dog. https://www.facebook.com/Murgatroy/videos/vb.100023796713875/167538970715992/

Price for price anything Daisy Avanti line is good. My daughter uses and has brought home a few trophies with Daisy Avanti BB gun. We are after accuracy though. Airforce makes some nice stuff too, and it is really popular in competition.

Yes and no, many of them can break the sound barrier, which means that a suppressor can quiet the supersonic crack.

My daughter shoots them competitively, so I am might be biased. At current she owns a Daisy Match Grade BB gun but we have been looking at buying her an Airforce or Crosman, both of which cost more than her Savage(s), she does shoot LH which adds to the cost. She has used Club Guns for a few years, but in the last year we (I) have invested in a Target .22LR, Sport .22LR and BB. We are lacking only in Air Sport and Target. While the only difference is in sights, it would realistically require two new guns. As such the Air Force guns are winning, in competition too.

I dig it. A lot of references. Some more obscure.

I have never been able to deal with an AFG or VFG on my AR. I put a Magpul VFG on my AKM and I liked it from the start. On my current favorite AR I tend to use a wrap around grip with a hand stop.

I keep it in the boxes and can fit 1000 rounds in each box. 9mm and 5.56.

I am sorry to hear this. It is hard to think about for a solo cat like me. I pray, if I did, for you.

Two would indeed be a couple.

I was a fat guy once, I wore loose clothes. It was a lot easier to conceal. Now I feel like a chick in the mirror checking to make sure I am not printing.

For me, a carry gun needs to be point and shoot. I am less concerned about the caliber than I am about ease of carry and point and shoot. Right now my EDC is a Micro Eagle. If I thought I could pull of a Glock 26, I would. Because Glock. The big thing with a pocket gun is less about the caliber, or even weight, but how will you draw and present? That is something that weighs heavily on me. I carry my Micro Eagle in a pocket holster, but realistically, it is draw, remove holster, present. IMO that is too much. I am also a slim guy that wears form fitting clothes. This is honestly the type of stuff that keeps me up at night.

When I am serious about a purchase, when the gun itself it laid in front of me (whether from stock in the back or the display case) I field strip it then and there. This is as/after my CCDW/License has been handed over for dealer paperwork with the 4473. To be honest shame on the buyer/seller if they didn't or objected. I have walked from a sale while the BGC was going down due to poor service. I have walked from a deal to go pay more where my questions were answered better. Kudos for the gun shop on good service, but they had no need too, it was on your friend for know knowing what he was buying.

I love my wife, I am glad I married someone that I can consider a partner. Most of the time.
-
Probably legal. It seems rather cumbersome to use, for one shot. I suppose I can see it for a deep cover final option or something.
-
Having paid for and being the only claimant of a deceased, there are often reasons for that. I do not know the stories. I am glad that someone got peace through this. But there are always two sides.

I grabbed a used Magnum Research Micro Eagle a long time ago... It has never failed to go bang. It will beat the hell out of you, but it goes bang. It falls into a pocket. It is like my wallet, knife, light and my phone, always with me.

22LR AR15 magazine question
Murgatroy replied to gregintenn's topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
I am pretty decided to just buy an M&P 15-22, surely the cost can't be that different? I have seen some really good deals on them lately. -
My Federal Refund usually balances out my State Liability. I am not in a friendly tax bracket and I try my best to keep both of them as close to zero as possible.

Clueless teens, 17, baffled by a rotary phone

Dude, I had forgot about that whole fake pulse tone dialing thing. My wife is a few years younger than me and I was trying to explain pulse dialing to her. She wasn't getting it. -

The point is, any of us could be handed an item that was obsolete twenty five years before we were born and be completely confused by what it was. The fact that it was an essential daily item means nothing when it was replaced by a far superior item that evolved a dozen times. -

That is kinda what I was thinking. It is obsolete tech. Like a party line, or calling an operator to connect you. How many of you here know how to set points or adjust your timing? Do you know how to operate the pedals on a Model T? Most likely not. It is obsolete tech. Do you know how to chop down a tree cut it to lumber and build your own home? Of course not, time has moved on from that point and life has become much easier. It is not the foretelling of doom that many of you think it is.
