Calif judge tells Lowes quit playin w my wood
A.J. Holst replied to Dustbuster's topic in General Chat
Why do you think carpet is now sold by the square root instead of yards? The population was too stupid to do the conversion. If you're too stupid to figure out how lumber has been measured and sold for years, Maybe you are too stupid to operate a hammer. "Those folks at lowes home depot been screwing us for years...I paid for 2x4. I got 1.5 x 3.5 I should have been charged less..." -
I stopped in right after they opened, any update on when the range will be open?
-
Is flush with ammo. If their stock is any indication, supply appears to have caught up with demand I didn't see any .22lr but wasn't looking
-
Finally has a wide(r) selected of all calibers with decent stock amount on the shelf. Saw something new, Federal Champion Red Box with aluminum case. Didn't see a price, the brass case was $13.97 + tax and stamp

which Ruger GP100 grips do you like best?

Bottom right followed very closely by bottom left. -
How much money have these folks made off gratuitous violence using firearms and reducing respect (and the reality) of what firearms can actually do through the "magic" of Hollywood? Throw in a little tna and we got a blockbuster! If YOU are against me having firearms, stop cashing in on movie projects that glamorize and imply a gun is needed for your character to make it to the closing credits. Wonder how many of these Hollywood types have armed security?

HCP/CCW - What are you preparing for?
A.J. Holst replied to D3vo's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
Lord Baden Powell, founder of the Boy Scouts was asked, "be prepared for what?" His response, "why, any old thing." -
When I worked in a restaurant I experimented with back pocket carry, both with a SP101 and MK9 in a Desantis Nemesis. Had to as my apron prevented easy access from most traditional carry positions and sob was not an option. Grip towards the center of back. Draw was reasonably smooth and accessible. Safe re-holstering requires removal of the holster. Requires a cover garment for concealment.(depending on gun and depth of pocket) Sitting is not uncomfortable as I can adjust the holster vertically in the pocket. Ymmv depending on how low on your hips you wear your pants. Buy a good belt first. Little off topic but I will witness and testify to buying a good belt. A good belt allows me to carry a full size to compact 9 or a 3" to snub nose revolver plus ammo with ease, all day, every day...and I'm not a big guy at 5'8" x 160# As an option to the ppk, check out the Bersa Thunder Plus. 15 rounds of .380 and it's still reasonably slim. Had one and traded it. Loved the James Bond look, felt great in my hand, nice pistol at a good price point BUT it was my only .380 and more expensive to practice with vs 9mm

“Today, U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer joined Remington officials and plant employees to announce that Bushmaster Firearms is relocating a manufacturing facility from Windham, Maine to Ilion, NY, bringing over forty new jobs to Central New York in the process. Schumer has been a long-time supporter of manufacturing at the Remington plant, urging top Army officials to open up competition for the Army’s small arms contracts to other U.S. manufacturers and domestic producers across the country like the Ilion, New York-based Remington. All about the money and revenue, jobs are a convenient by product. No guns for Americans but we will see how we can get DoD funds into the hands on my constituents. Transparency in guv'mint? Yeah to see the hypocrisy the aristocracy of pull in action.

I've been on the hunt for a VZ (CZ) 52 for no other reasons besides I like CZ handguns and find the x25 round ballistical interesting. Are there any carbines available that also shoot this round?
-
I'm a leather belt guy, have one from 5.11 (made in China) with 6 years of use and more recently a Goodrich and Gould with 2 years of use. Both sub $50. Heard some great things about the Wilderness non leather belts, but no first hand experience. Concur with a 1.5", fits all my pants/shorts.

Let me get this straight, ut in session, co-eds all over the place and OS just "happens" to be checking out the campus WM. Tells Mrs OS he needed to buy ammo and has a receipt and product to back up his story. You're my hero!

Thanks for posting. I know Jesus loves me, but here's the great news, He loves EVERY ONE on Earth, whether you choose to believe in Him or not.

Craig, if the grip wasn't so "fat" I'd own one. I had the opportunity to shoot one and really liked it. Less important but cool looking too.
-
We'll probably need to agree to disagree on how I choose to spend my money or rather what's left after the guv'mint confiscates their piece to redistribute. Thanks for your service and please (NO sarcasm intended) don't allow for ptsd to go untreated!

My protest is back on. I know WM cares nothing for one shopper but eff these guys.
-
Are we related? Cousins maybe because I prefer my ramen cooked

How to marry a millionaire, one of my favorites.

Broke down and starting shopping here a few weeks ago...Not bad, I made it almost 7 months without stepping into any WM. BUT they still have very limited to no ammo. Confusing as GM and academy are flush.

A.J. Holst replied to Fourtyfive's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
Almost dropped...easier load up for me since all of my primary edc holsters are clips vs. Loops...pants -> belt -> holster and handgun
