Laser SIGHTS are very helpful.

Never experienced the previous management but the current one was very helpful the 4 times that I've been in. They posted on here a month or two ago to welcome us. Nice folks.

Motor oils: Generally good boundary lubrication (particularly the Havoline formulations), but very poor corrosion resistance and poor resistance to open-air oxidation. In addition, their pour-point additives often contain benzene compounds, which aren't a good thing to have next to your skin on a regular basis! ATF performs better for firearms use on every count, even if it is a tad more expensive. (ATF is still 1/10 to 1/100th the cost of a specialty "gun oil"!) Gear oils: Too thick for the application. In addition, they contain tackifiers which gives them poor migration and lead to oxidization in open air, rendering them even more "sticky" - pretty much what we don't want. (Some folks use it on their slide rails because it's thicker and won't migrate easily; a light grease is a far better choice.) If you really want a thicker oil with all the good characteristics we've covered, but is still cheap, mix ATF and STP Oil Treatment in a 40/60 ratio. Far better than gear oil on every count - but I'd still rather have a good NLGI #0 grease. WD-40: WD-40 was never meant to be a lubricant - it was designed as a moisture displacer. It's far too light for any load protection, has incredibly poor corrosion resistance, contains zero boundary lubricants, and rapidly oxidizes to form a sickly yellow varnish (hint: this is not good for delicate internal lockwork.) There are those who will defend this stuff vehemently, but then again you can still find people who think smokeless powder is a passing fad. Just. Don't. Automotive motor oil additives: Usually a boundary additive in some sort of light mineral oil carrier, they usually lack corrosion protection and often oxidize rapidly; some have poor migration characteristics and rely on the oil to which they'll be added to provide those things. There are better and cheaper alternatives, though when mixed with an appropriate oil additives do have some merit (see above.) By themselves? No. Untitled Document gotta be true if it's on the web

That's what I use it for, a cleaner. Lubriplate 130-A grease & TW25B oil on my guns.

Always heard WD-40 was mostly kerosene but it's fish oil I think. A MSDS search would answer that.

I was waiting on what the Gunsmith would recommend.

Don't they oils specifically for guns? They also make motor oil specifically for motors, just saying.

I've been told that Spyderco will re-sharpen your knife for the cost of shipping? I'll most likely give that a shot when my Serrated blade is render useless. I suspect other manufactures would do the same.

I'm really surprised that motorcycle fuel mileage hasn't improved that much being most newer bikes are fuel-injected, computer controlled ignition and plasitc coated. But after saying that, my 93XLK650 gets about the same mpg's as my 05FJR1300 45-50 mpg. But, if you don't mind being seen on a scooter you can get 80-100 mpgs.

Oh, I guess a hacksaw and file would not have been the improper tools. :-\ I was just curious of how it's done. I'm sure I don't have the skills or the tools. Suspect the explanation would be a thread by itself anyway.

sadly interesting, Reston, VA - North Dakota and Montana have an estimated 3.0 to 4.3 billion barrels of undiscovered, technically recoverable oil in an area known as the Bakken Formation. A U.S. Geological Survey assessment, released April 10, shows a 25-fold increase in the amount of oil that can be recovered compared to the agency's 1995 estimate of 151 million barrels of oil. USGS Release: 3 to 4.3 Billion Barrels of Technically Recoverable Oil Assessed in North Dakota and Montanas Bakken Formation—25 Times More Than 1995 Estimate— (4/10/2008 2:25:36 PM) sad that we didn't start tapping it in 08

They're called SIGLITE Night Sights but they look like white dots to me that don't absorb light.

I may dress it up with some fancy grips and Glow-On added to the sights. I intend it to be my carry pistol.

What did I do after the LC9 sold? Found a deal on a P238 Nitron. I haven't seen these under $500. but with the tag marked $429.00 I jumped on it. It rang up at $479.00 but the fine folks at G&L honored the tag price. Can't wait to warm her up!

That is a beauty. I've shot a 9mm PX4......a real sweet shooter, congrats!

A trigger job on a P238? The trigger feels great on the new one I bought today, can't see room for improvement so please tell me more.

He would be making the assumption that they were unloaded as I am making the assumption that they may have had magazines under their hoodies. Far fetched but possible. His place is under a Church of all things with a Beauty shop next door. The punks may have had better luck robbing the Beauty shop.........of course a relative may have recognized them

Just finished a class with Jeff, Pack'N Heat - Tennessee Handgun Carry Permit Training Highly recommend him and his class, haven't heard anything about BPS.

What if the kids turned around and aimed the AK and the AR at the Rabbi? Hummm.......

well, this thread sure has swerved off track.

What provoked you to do that?

I would luv to have a varmint rifle to pop ground hogs and hunt coyote's but I don't have the land to do so. Just excuses, I know. So it's been revolvers, pistols and targets.
