Google "Oleg Volk" and purchase a set from him.  Ask for the "Girls With Guns" series.

  yeah, but the number of GOC listings has increased too :cool:

  Additionally, the number of Gunbot listings per caliber continues to grow.   Although prices have spiked back up since last night, during the week there were a number of semi-reasonable deals to be had.   There is no doubt the supply is growing compared to even two weeks ago.

stay out of Lonsdale hood.   Clinton/Lake City/Oliver Springs will add 10-15 minutes to the drive, but rent is cheaper.  Don't forget Lenoir City NW area (away from waterfronts)

  Now ya done gone & pissed on the campfire.  Steaming the place up with that there yeller fog....

Here ya go.  Its Lapua, after all.   http://www.ammunitionstore.com/products/22lr-ammo-sk-lapua-40gr-standard-plus-500-round-box.html

  umm.. That's 102 *holes*.  Expended round count has to be much higher.

      I'll cut them some slack on this issue.  It *has* to be getting old dealing with the vultures.  I also think this person was filling in for the day as they demonstrated zero knowledge in the SG's area.

I walked through a WM sporting goods this afternoon, just after a old fellow had cornered the clerk.  All I heard was "It will be set out in 30 minutes!"  Clerk passed by me, stopped, said "Is there anything YOU need to know?"  :rofl:

Have you tried a McDonald's stirring stick ? (seriously).  Use it just like a wingbone call.

I saw on FB Facebook where Dave Foulk (FM 98.7) confirmed that the robber has indeed ART assumed room temperature.  Good.   B. Bert

an acronym   :squint:   Leave me alone.  I'm busy reading PMBOK.

  this.

  "Defensive Gun Use"  Sorry, I am a TTAG reject. :surrender:

I am guessing this one will turn out to be complicated...   http://www.knoxnews.com/news/2013/feb/27/e-knoxville-store-manager-trades-gunfire-with/

  I got the system email confirmation of purchase back right away, so not worried.  I got a lifetime to wait on the papers and the status. 

  Bump.  This runs out on 28th, right ?

heh. you miss my point. Think outside of the box.

ex shooting it ?   right....

by policy, they do not permit carry of loaded firearms

Miltech, on the one he linked, I would advise against using it for FRS.   It is not rated nor certified for anything other than the ham bands (and it requires a license for that).    Any other use, well...to relate it to firearms..sort of like using NFA devices without the stamp.   Go ahead if you want to assume the risk.   I guess thats about I have to say on this.  I gave sage and proper advice, and that's the best I can do. Y'all carry on.

  no,   I suggest that you search for a pair of FRS radios on Amazon.  Look for good user reviews in your price range.   And you will be able to actually use the radios without risking/ incurring a $10K/day FCC fine.

  Long distance?  In a word, no, especially unassisted, point-to-point. However, this radio would have its uses.   Opinions will vary, but you would might have reliable comms from 1-5 miles, depending on terrain.  With other factors, techniques, and equipment, the range could be extended. As for the brand and reliability...well....short answer is look for stuff advertised in ham radio or commercial industry magazines - Icom, Kenwood, Motorola, Yaesu/Vertex, Wuoxun (??), etc.     I am working towards a more suitable answer in this Radio Basics thread, but still have a ways to go (I am adding info every week).  Keep checking back over the next month or so, and you will see equipment suggested for scenarios of 5 miles or less, 5-50 miles, and over 50 miles.

Not much at Oak Ridge.  In fact, the last 3-4 times I have randomly wondered in during the past week or so, I cannot even find a clerk near sporting goods.    Today, I asked a question about cheese (they quit stocking my favorite) in the dairy section (the clerk was squaring shelves) - "Oh, this is not my section.  I work in the garden center"......     Who moved my cheese ammo ??

For the Norks, Its about "nukes for food (and stuff for Dear General) while saving face", round 3 (as I recall).   While not explicitly said, up for sale is introduction of IAEA inspections.    Unfortunately, our FP is not too sharp.  4 of 5 of the Korean FP team leads used to speak Korean.  not anymore.    They literally cannot understand the background conversations at the table, much less muster any respect (and clout).  The other problem is that State really beleives that "if we disarm first, they will too".   Doesn't work with rogue states.
