  1. Years ago I had a table at the Houston Gun Collectors show.  Somebody lit off a round in the next row of tables and he was immediately surrounded by cops and show officials.  Turns out it was a vendor who had just traded for a bolt-action rifle and he wanted to see if it fed ammo smoothly.    If gun shows want to put signs every 10 feet that's their business.  But there should be at least one hanging over the entrance with big, bold letters:  "YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID!"
  2. Looks like an ingenious solution to non-existent problems.  I've seen uglier guns, but at least they made sense.
  3. We have two credit cards and pay the balance each month.  Our credit rating is above average and have never been turned down for a loan on a car or mortgage.  I think the bank or finance company looks at a lot more than revolving credit on a card to see if you're a good risk.
  4. I'll speak up for Home Depot in Maryville.  Their sub-contractors laid our laminate flooring a few years ago and did a great job.  I pulled up the old carpeting, prepped the floor and installed the quarter-round myself, thus saving a few hundred bucks.
  5.   Since you opened the door of discussion to CZ 75 copies, allow me to say that the IWI Baby Desert Eagle imported by Magnum Research fills the bill very well, too.  I've got a 9mm all-steel model and have never had a handgun that shoots better.  It's assembled in Israel with Italian Tanfoglio parts and used by several government security agencies under the name, Jericho 941.  Believe me, nobody depends upon firearms more than the Israelis. 
  6. I hope I can explain this right, but Obama is at a distinct disadvantage when it comes to a pissing contest with Vlad.  In Russia, anyone who questions or disses the decisions of Dear Leader might get a one-way ticket to Ice World, at best.  In this country we have that pesky First Amendment that allows us to rip whoever, whenever and come back again tomorrow with the same message.  Nobody has the guts to tell Vlad where to head in, but now there are voices arising from Obama's own amen corner that the bystander president should ease up on the trigger.  I agree with DaveTN.  Let's let somebody else play whatever passes for Santa Claus to the world's whiney rage boys.
  7.   Good point....it may not even have happened.  I mean, who's got .22 ammo?
  8.   Was that the barrage just before Pickett's Charge?  Ya shot too high, Rebs..
  9. I'll let you know about the .40 when I hit the target with one.
  10.   Gypsies, tramps and thieves.....was the gal in the bathroom named Cher by any chance?
  11.   Don't forget to add the rifle and ammo manufacturers to the junkyard dog lawyer's list.  And maybe even Bush.
  12. I wish I had a do-over for that few seconds when I accidentally sent a 9mm slug through my apartment wall.  Therefore, I'm disqualified as an accuser.  My prayers to him, you and all affected.
  13. Before I started reloading, I kept my Bersas fed with PMC and Magtech.  But now for training they have a constant diet of Berry's Bullets.  For SD purposes, the Bersa Thunder .380 is loaded with Speer Gold Dots and the Concealed Carry model gets Corbon DPX.  The BersaChat website has a forum devoted to ammo tests for the several models and calibers which Bersa offers.  It'll load your wagon with info.  Here's a link to the .380 threads:   http://www.bersachat.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?79-380-Ammo-Tests
  14. If this story doesn't grab you, your grabber's broke.   http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/10/31/this-woman-looked-like-she-was-about-to-commit-suicide-as-several-bystanders-sauntered-past-luckily-for-her-a-bus-driver-nicknamed-big-country-wasnt-going-to-let-that-happen/
  15. You won't change the country until you change the states.  Right here is the principal battleground.  We sent Alexander and Corker to speak for us--we may as well have sent Laurel and Hardy.  If the states don't take back their sovereign rights, the politicrats will do our picking for us.
  16. I remember comedian Pat Paulsen, who formed the Straight Talking American Government (STAG) Party.  He had a one-plank platform:   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZUEgLNJ6tg
  17. I've been to Chickamauga and of course Lookout Mountain.  I'm glad to see that most of those sites have been preserved.  So much of the land has been eaten up by progress.  In Knoxville about all that's left is Bleak House, where Gen. Longstreet stayed during the siege and at Campbell Station there's just a tiny museum surrounded by shopping centers.    It almost broke my heart when I visited Stones River.  I was walking around the cemetery and right across the train tracks some business had put stacks of old mattresses out to blight the mood.  Hardly anything is left of Fortress Rosecrans except the mounds.  How are future generations going to learn and respect what was done at these places of honor if so much of it is taken over by developments?
  18. Just rubbing it in good.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=e3-RKS0_NKk
  19. This should clear things up:   http://www.mlive.com/entertainment/detroit/index.ssf/2013/10/ted_nugents_son_says_report_of.html
  20. Nov.1 is my wedding anniversary.  If I don't remember it, lots of things will happen.
  21. I'm working on a batch of .380 now.  I put 100-grain Berrys through them with Red Dot and they go were I point 'em.  I stay in the mid-range of the load specs and have no problems whatsoever.  I don't keep track of the number of times I've used the brass.  I just inspect for condition prior to priming.  Never had one fail.
  22. I bought the wife a 605 and kept it for a couple of years.  The .357 was a little too hard on her so we filled it with .38s.  When she got the semi bug we traded it off.  No complaints at all about the revolver.  Snubs aren't for everyone though.
  23. Of course they were heavy on the Nixon bashing but not a hint of Dear Leader's involvement.  I wonder what they'll say when they hear the jackboots at their door.
  24. Ten dollars for a background check that takes less than 30 seconds.
