  1. Unless you are in a big hurry to get a gun I would call the CC company and see what the latest date is that you can file a charge back and wait a little while longer. I bet they are just backed up like everyone else. Just what I would do though.
  2. I like it! One of the four way type stand off deals. That would mean you would need 8 prop guns though. Maybe they will have enough. If not you can always paint your hands black and point at them with your fingers in the shape of a gun. If it passes as a gun for a school principal then it must be good enough!
  3. I have often thought about having some type of system that plumbed in line with you existing water system. Kind of a big holding tank before the hot water heater of normal cold lines. It would stay replenished with fresh water all the while holding plenty of water onsite for emergencies. If you went with some type of mini onsite water tower you could possibly even have it pressurized to use in the normal ways in the house. Although I doubt you would want to take a cold shower or waste water on showers for that matter.
  4. I think they just figure we won't notice all the crazy ammo use and use our imagination as to how they are making/getting it. Remember most of the public probably doesn't even think twice about it. It would be cool however for them to finally just run out and use more melee type fighting. It would be Walking Dead meets Spartacus!
  5. So I guess water will "keep" a long time in a sealed container like that? Doesn't look like they have an easy way of changing it out often.
  6.  I agree. This kind of raises another question I have been asking myself. When we get to this point what else can we do? I have emailed and written reps and received all the same canned responses everyone else has. I have hope that they can do something but not much confidence.   I am just wondering is there any other peaceful measure I myself can take other than trying my best to educate the population on guns and/or sitting on my hands waiting for the inevitable. It's just pretty clear to me that while I do believe this is still the greatest nation on the planet we have a few up in D.C who want to cash in on that at our expense. This nation is great because the PEOPLE made it that way. Not the laws or regulations. When the people who don't think that way outnumber those that do I will be very very worried.
  7. So I guess they are just overlooking the fact that a POLICE OFFICER just went on a "Rampage" (their words not mine) with one of the 30 round killing machines. Guess they are just overlooking that. Kind of puts a flaw in that logic. Of course we all already know this.....   I have the utmost respect for our armed forces and police officers and am not trying to downplay the training they receive but I am getting sick and tired of the word civilians being synonymous with ignorant,irresponsible, and dangerous unless supervised when it comes to firearms!!! I know a few police officers that have less training than I have received as a civilian (which isn't much at all). They are not dangerous by any means and know how to operate their firearms but aren't any better a shot than I am. They also aren't any less prone to going nuts and shooting everyone.   These politicians that are trying to pass this crap are not only "weak kneed" but they are selfish, self serving, idiots that think we are stupid!
  8. What happens on the web stays on the web....Like literally.....forever....... :pleased:
  9. Awesome read! Thanks for posting. I may just email some of the news networks and tell them about this. Surely they must have just missed it.........
  10. And I'm sure they will. They CANNOT let Tyrese come in and out of the storyline like that. I have a feeling we will see them in the next one or two episodes.
  11. I am at work and was trying to get off the phone to order it! Wasn't meant to be.
  12. CRAP IT's GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
  13. That's by far the worst part. Waking to realize it wasn't true.
  14. I'm glad you started this thread. Seems we all have the running slow, can't hit anyone hard enough, gun won't fire, wake up right at the good part dreams.   Nice to know we are all a little weird. haha
  15. I had this dream for a good two years after I got my permit. Once I bought a glock I never had that problem again. :rofl:   I am an M&P man now though. :rock:   Not just kidding though I really did have that same type dream. Seems pretty common from what Caster said.
  16. Meh. Michonne could have easily taken out a truck full of zombies. I guess they were shooting at her though. They cleared it once so just clear it again. Funny how all of a sudden everyone sucks when shooting at humans but are dead eyes when shooting zombies at 500 yards with a flashlight suppressor equipped pistol with no useable sights. :pleased:
  17. This is the reason I haven't been to the range in a while. Too bad too because I used to enjoy it. Once I get some ammo though I plan on transitioning to IDPA. I think I will get better use of my ammo AND be around folks who won't shoot me.
  18.   This does make good sense. I didn't think to notice that part. If in fact he hadn't drawn his gun after the attack then yes I would agree that he wasn't in the wrong. Not something I would have done personally but nonetheless I wouldn't think there would be grounds for charges.   I guess I would hope a court looks at it like TMF described. which it looks like they are.   Also just want to clarify I love the fact that the good guys won on this one. I guess I just like playing devil's advocate sometimes even if I'm not THAT good at it. :usa:
  19. That's what the police are there for. Let them get your stuff back so you don't run the risk of going to jail over what was in your wallet or ,more likely in this case, your Rambo complex. Your HCP in TN is for you protection if your life is in immediate danger. Once the guy ran off that threat is over. Running away shooting back I could understand, but once he rounded the corner and went down the street he is gone. If his self defense claim was based on the second attack, that he provoked, then he's lucky it wasn't a young kid or worse a young minority. Don't mean for that to sound racist either. Just don't know how else to say it. He'll be lucky if he isn't sued in civil court by the family. Just my .02 and again I don't know WI law so all of this may mean squat up there.
  20. Haha I have never seen those before. Now I can't stop watching them!
  21. I'm the same way now. I am almost afraid of armslist. I told the wife I want to move farther east so I can get it on all the good trades on TGO. Only a few of us here in the Memphis area haha.
  22. Well he didn't "Stand his ground". He "advanced his ground" if you will. I am very surprised they are calling it justified but as 2.0 said, WI law may be different. Bad choice on his part IMO.
  23. That's what I would have done. I have almost wanted to mess with a few of these guys on armslist but decided against it. It's their stuff so I guess they can ask what they want.
