  1. this. now only 51.
  2. Congratulations.  It is tough.   What area, and what field? 
  3. If a methhead is on my property, I don't care what direction they are heading, I am in fear of my life.  Seen enough of them up close to know they will turn on you in a heartbeat. 
  4. Some East TN/Knoxville resources via Christi Wigle of Knoxville's Community Coalition Against Human Trafficking -  http://www.ccaht.org/CCAHTvid.html    I can tell you that resources are thin, woefully under-funded and under-staffed. Trafficking is a huge problem in this area.
  5. The Henry receiver is steel, not pot-metal.  I can feel the magnet tug even through a gun sock and the brass cover on a Golden Boy .17 HMR.

    He is Risen

    He is alive Indeed!  I was dead because of my sins and because my sinful nature was not yet cut away.  Then God made me alive with Christ and forgave all my sins. He cancelled the record of the charges against me and took it away by nailing it upon the cross.  Death is swallowed up in victory, O death, where is your victory? O death where is your sting?  His Grace, through the power of Christ over the cross has made me alive, indeed.
  7. I found a box of .454 Casull JHPs today. Oh... Sorry.  I made those.
  8. You will never regret buying a Henry.
  9. Saw so much sign today that I needed to scrape off my boots.
  10. I see differences in flattening between brands and type on my .223 & .204. I have had pretty good luck on the Wolf/Tula & CCI primers, and especially using magnum or 223 primers (as compared to Federal 205, for instance). So, play around a bit.
  11. What primers are you using ?
  12.   Widen the angle a bit more.   As you put it earlier, it is a monarchy. Look at Ephesians 4:17-19.  For a Christ-follower, through scripture, the  King of Kings declared it a closed system (vs 18 "because they have closed their minds").    They are indeed open to input, only as long as it is agreeable. In that, non-believers have commonality with believers, except believers have foundation by some specifics in the Word (for example 1 Corinthians 6:9-11). Not sure where the non-believers get their foundation.  Certainly not Islam, Judaism, or Christianity.    <and wow, Bert can't spell tonight! -edits >
  13. Just thinking....in reality, the second law of thermodynamics is in full force on this, and many other issues we would not normally connect to it.    We are biological construct, of energy and matter.  It is required that entropy always increases.    Thus, as with all systems, we continue to fall apart and decay at an ever increasing rate.   Over time, although we may become more efficient, experienced and knowledgeable, and may stave off temporal effects (i.e. death), in the end, we must still devolve, not evolve.   No surprise.  We are just one of many societies and empires to crumble.
  14. Bang whatever you like. Just don't be offended by my response when you ask me if I agree with you.
  15. Canadian superstar hero :snore: Jim Carey retches out liberal bile against US gun owners   
  16. The grease may be too heavy, but more importantly, make sure that shaft has plenty of *light* oil on it (perhaps penetrating or Kroil).  On mine, it is now loose enough that a mild downward whack with the palm of my hand will disengage (brace the bottom of hand grip against your thigh, knee or other surface when whacking). Then, with pressure still applied, I rotate my wrist to flip the hinge.    I was like you, looking for the button model, until I got the right lube in the right places    Hope this helps in the interim until you find the new one.
  17.   Have you put a coat of lube on the Ace hinge ?  Mine is *much* easier with Rem Oil on all the contact surfaces (on the spring too)
  18. I have one of these and some 300gr full-power loads if you want to try it. For kicks & grins, you can also try my .308 Win Encore Pistol
  19. Magnum Research .45-70 BFR   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnum_Research_BFR
  20.   yeah.  That's what cats are for. Curiosity makes a great back-stop.
  21. Considering the deep egg-shell foam in my cases, I could also see pressure against the trigger in certain situations.   Bottom line...rifle was stored loaded, and transported or  and handled in an unsafe condition.
  22. Congratulations!   "Direct your children onto the right path, and when they are older, they will not leave it." -Proverbs 22:6   If you don't already, I suggest the rest of Proverbs as critical reading for any new parent.  Use a version you can understand. like NASB, NLT, NIV, etc.  Even if you are not a believer, the collection of wisdom is stunning (and can easily be found online).   B.
  23. However you catch your brass, don't catch it in a bra.  Last lady I heard of doing that whipped around and shot my buddy in the leg. Bad juju.
  24. Zoom really affects viewing.  I could see Red Lobster in OR, but not Ruby Tuesdays, Untill I zoomed a few more times.
