They aren't that bad haha. A buddy and me had a headshot competition at 25 yards with them. I was actually surprised at the accuracy.

Constitutional carry in Mississippi
maroonandwhite replied to jhnpeterman's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I think you may have that backwards. The definition of concealed has been clarified in the statute now. If the gun is visible to plain sight it counts as open carry and no permit is needed. If it cant be seen in plain sight then it would be considered concealed. The way the statute used to read didn't clarify concealed and some crazy attorney general opinion / case law suggested that even a holster counted as concealed even though you could plainly see it. -
My spider sense is going nuts on that one. That's "Craigslist Scam" talk if I ever heard it. They used to use broken english but they are getting wiser and using good english now. To my knowledge once a money order is cashed it can't really be traced and the gov. isn't going to refund you just because you got ripped off. He may be legit but unless you could meet FTF or get him to take it to a local gun shop and deal with them I wouldn't touch it.

Any idea where to pick up brass punches? I looked at Lowe's and HD a when I ordered these but couldn't find them. I would settle for Nylon too if I knew where to get them. -

Thanks for the offer scout but I'm sure I'll have one soon. Going on vacation saturday so I'll probably pick one up as vacation spending. The wife can't fight it that way haha. -

Yeah I have one of the cheap walmart dremels (on purpose actually) just for the fact that they don't spin as fast as the better ones. On the low setting it barely even spins fast enough to throw sparks. I didn't damage the vials at all just some idiot marks on the sights. Hopefully in a few days the sting won't be so bad and I will stop contemplating ordering a new rear sight haha. Edit: Also I remember when we swapped sights on that glock 19 and 27. That was the first time I had seen one of those tools and thought it was awesome. MAN are they proud of them though. Now that I am pretty set on owning mostly Glocks I may invest in one. -
:down: I received my new set of Ameriglo pro I-dot's yesterday and went to put them on. When I changed them out on my M&P I have always just used a steel punch with a towel on the end of it layered about four times. These were going on my Glock 23. After putting on the front sight and drifting out the old rear sight I went at it. I knocked the sight in as far as it would go with a mallet and started using the punch. MAN was it tight. I had to really hit it hard a couple of times and when I pulled the punch/towel back to my horror the punch had cut through the towel and marred the side of the sights up. I have never had a Glock that sights were this hard to get it. I ended up drifting it back out and grinding on it very lightly with a dremel. Still a tight fit but they finally went on. I got in a hurry doing it and now I am paying for it. On the up side this isn't an expensive 1911 and is my carry gun so I am not too upset....but it does suck. Anyone else ever done this? (Make me feel better haha).

I like em in a skillet myself. Black on both sides with some toasted bread and mustard. MMMMMMM

I am the exact opposite. I could take "slow" Zombies all day long. If a herd of those "Rage" zombies came around the corner I would be running with dirty pants.

Army of Tennessee delicacy: "Biled Cat" ???
maroonandwhite replied to Will Carry's topic in General Chat
I'm glad that didn't end with eating cat. That actually sound really good! -
You have to watch Bass Pro in Memphis. I went in there one night only to find empty shelves. I just so happened to check out some long guns behind the counter and saw cartons full of 250 round value packs in all calibers. If they are busy they won't even bother shelving it haha.

I thought the gov banned that. Oh wait.........

Safe to say that this thread has died/evolved? :rofl: Did you guys hear about the guy that OC'd in a Chick-Fil-A and got the place posted? -

Cool. Learn something new everyday! Just another good example of why we shouldn't take everything we hear from others as the "gospel truth". I am guilty of that sometimes as you can see. -

maroonandwhite replied to vontar's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Yeah I don't disagree with you. I fully believe the bible means that that's a no no. I am just going off of the general belief that the KJV is as close to the original text translation wise. Maybe it's not though?? It says something a little different in all of them but I have no doubt what the intention was. Also I'm gonna have to look up the "good news" version. Sounds like it's in really plain English. -
How to find Interwebs ammo for cheap.
maroonandwhite replied to whitewolf001's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
I honestly didn't know about it until a member mentioned it a few months ago. It's a great tool every now and then when Cabela's pops up on there. Most of the other stores are still kind of high. -

Well Memphis has done it again ?

Is there sarcasm in there or do you disagree? And welcome! :wave: -

I seriously almost had to go to the fish house last night and eat. All of this talk of food was making me crave seafood! Any particular places that have good fried oysters? I know most have them but I want the best haha.

Why on earth Bass Pro Shop decided to put the new store smack dab in the middle is beyond me. There is a nice big field out towards my house that would have been a great location! -
Yeah that's what I read. I was thinking of stopping by on the way down but we will just have to drive back up to mobile one day.

Well after flexing my google-fu it seems you are correct. How in the world I came up with that I have no idea. I'll also blame that on youthful ignorance haha.
