  1. The first thing I'd try is a replacment mag release and spring....
  2.   You'd think, but I suspect he made bail fairly quickly after he was booked in and most likely as not will get out of this with a stiff fine and probation.
  3. What an idiot. All for a sense of self importance and a free drink. I wonder how much this is going to cost him now.
  4.   I've seen Glock's with thousands of rounds fired through them that still had some of the factory grease left in them. It's literally one of those guns you can shoot until its so filthy it looks like it will never shoot again. But it does, unless there's a parts breakage it'll just eventually cycle slowly enough to have feed/eject failures. Then once you do a detailed clean and lube it looks new and runs like a scalded dog.
  5. On bucket seats or with a split 60/40 bench seat I use a holster on the righthand side of the drivers seat. I've tied the holster off to the front of the lower seatbelt assy arm and I've velcroed it to the side of the seat. But overall I try to keep it out of sight of inquisitive eyes with a hat, or bandanna masking it. The magnet setup looks good but where's that gun going to go in a serious car crash?
  6. It's been a few years but I had a bad run in with vertigo due to an ear infection. It was bad enough that it flaired up again when I had another less serious ear infection. Nowadays I just hope I never have another inner ear infection or serious sinus infection. Either one make you as sick as can be.
  7. Yep, the copper grease is there for a reason, leave it there. All you need to do with that pistola is read the owners manusl, follow good firearms safety proceedures, use some good common sense in shooting it and have fun. Clean it when it needs it but otherwise just use it...and buy it a stablemate..
  8. Well I've been considering a pup for my place but have been uncertainas to what breed. I'm a sucker for boxers so the little mixed breed pups look pretty good to me.
  9.   Yep...that pretty much sums it up...the whole thing looks like the wrong people got fired up and in turn a bunch of hangers on followed along. It all had the air of a "hey ya'll watch this" episode that got out of hand...then folks were in a position of losing serious face if they backed down and went home. I can't even call it tragic because it was so inept...
  10. It's all over now...the last hold out rambled on about his weed...cookies and a last smoke...sounded pretty off the wall...but he has for the last few days as well
  11. I wonder if the kids in the video know how badly everyone is laughing at it...I kind of feel sorry for them...but not tubby...LOL
  12. Well he's going to do whatever he's going to do. I'm not sure if his goals more attention, suicide by cop, going into a psych ward to use an insanity plea or if he thinks he wants to be a martyr.  
  13. And other then coming out looking ridiculous, going to jail and one getting himself killed they got a bunch of nothing. I hope no one else gets all wound up and gets themselves shot while surrending.
  14. Yeah that video started hitting the gunblogs yesterday. I laughed more then I should have at the video and all of the comments about it.
  15. I'm still trying to figure out what the knuckehead was doing duing the National Anthem with all tha towel tugging and head rolling. I thought he was doing a special snowflake demonstration...
  16. That whole Burns OR fiasco was a train wreck in progress from the get go with all of the self posturing fruit cakes and moon bats involved how could it have been anything else. If you looked at the backgrounds of the so called leaders and syncopaths involved you'd have been dismayed at so many people speaking up for them. I don't know what the overall strategy has been on the Feds side but while kids and families were present I can understand a reluctance to shut off utilities. But after the bulk of the hangers on left I'd have shut everything off and locked the place down. What's really suprising to me is the lack of understanding and awarness the occupiers have in believing they won't or shouldn't be prosicuted. Someone sure has a skewed conception of historical protest movements.
  17. Has he had any problems with his Facebook and Twitter Accounts yet? It seems as if all it takes is one accusations and your gone.
  18. Unless someones tried to do a DIY action job on it your most likely problem is the rebound spring. Its simple to replace and if you go to Brownells go ahead and splurge for a rebound spring tool.
  19. That wasn't an unrealistic price at all for a really clean Python. I know a guy who bought one that had begun to lose its nickle plating and needed a rebuild who still spent close to a grand on it. That really wasn't to long ago either.
  20. I concur she gave an amazing preformance and sounded fantastic. While I'm put off by some of her costumes and grand standing publicity stuff I do belive she has an amazing voice.
  21. It's hit or miss on quality control and the .410 shotshells from a threaded...stubby barell are more of a cool thing then practically feasable. The PD & Govenor are essentially oversized revolvers which do well with the .45 LC and .410 SG slugs and IMHO fall short of their self defense marketing. The Thunder-Five was a better gun but even it suffered from the same shortcomings with respect to shotshells. Overall I'm thinking more of a range toy and knock around field gun.

    Ruger question

    Just about every Speed-Six I remember seeing before the GP-100 came out was in a 2 3/4 " barrel but I do recall handling a 4" barrel one at a gun store. Of course at that time all S&W revolvers still had pinned barrels so its been a while. I just wish I'd had the foresight to buy several of the Security & Speed Sixes then instead of being the S&W snob I was.

    Walther TPH

    Yep. Both calibers but all I've ever seen myself were the 22LR varients
  24. Nice. Just a bit different then the ones made in Belgum in the 1970's throut 1980's insofar as the adjustable sights and safties go. I once had a Made in Belgium Browning Renisicance Model Hi-Power with the adjustable sights. Factory satin nickel, gold plated trigger...gorgeous...I didn't have the heart to shoot it and traded it off to a collector.
  25.   Well there's a little more to weapons retention skills insofar as body positional movement and twists and disarming an opponent was generally a last result because you were going to get shot anyway. I actually got to tell the story about both afterwards and nobody got shot. One got a year in the gray bar hotel the other a bit less.
