Bass Pro on the East side of the state had a bunch of primers. Mainly Winchester and federal and all looked like pre panic prices. They had pretty much anything for reloading you would need. The even had 9mm and 223 dies.

that is less than 1 per state per day, when you figure in Chicago, NY, Memphis and Detroit doing their part. We have averaged 32 a day and 25% is coming from 4 cities. Maybe we should look into the reason those cities are so bad. Here is an article that I feel explains it a little http://frontpagemag.com/2013/dgreenfield/cdc-data-shows-gun-violence-is-tied-to-unemployment-rates/

I bet GM has them in stock for a Fathers day Promo. The only other times I saw more than one in stock they run a sale on them a couple of weeks later. They were the same price that time as well (2+ years ago). It was all I could do not to laugh at the sales guy when he told me they were $179+tax and tics. I had just picked one up at a LGS the day before for $125 otd. I looked in the Sunday paper a week later and Gander had them on sale for $109+tax and tics. Considering I have only seen them in stock there is right before a sale, keep your eye out for a sale, especially if they have a lot of them.

G17 that is so beat up I don't think I could sell it if I wanted to. It is rough looking due to a fall it took, and 2 years after the fall it started having feeding issues. It has pretty much been rebuilt on the inside and we still can't figure it out. It is now safely sleeping snugly in the case with 4 mags. I don't know if I will take it out except for range time. 

I don't know they are giving away Predators pre-season tickets, it might be hard to beat that. LOL

No surgery! the doctor does not like to cut open a knee on anyone under 45 unless completely necessary. I am to take it easy this weekend and see him on Monday and if it still looks the same I will be able to get back on my feet next week.

I had yet another DR. Appt today and I think my body is quitting on me. I went in last week for what I thought was a heart attack. It ended up being extremely high BP. Then I go in today becausey knee was really swollen and extremely painful. I found out I have a minuscus tear and have a sergical consult in the morning. While looking at my X-rays the Dr. said that I have the worst knee she has ever seen. It is so bad they are looking into replacement. The really sad part is I have always felt that was my good knee. I just can't believe after all the years of no issues this all came about in 8 days. Oh we'll I guess it just means I get to spend more time with the kids.

Very close friends of my family are Amish. They are great people and they make all kinds of food for us. My favorite that they make is the jam that my friends wife makes. I mentioned that it would make a great PB&J, he went to the cupboard and grabbed a jar of JIF. He said that the homemade stuff is not nearly as good as JIF. I go up in August every year to visit them so if anyone wants real Amish food, let me know and I can load up my car. 

It looks like they are not reporting on "street crime". I have read several local stories from around the country that have involved rifles with high cap mags and that is as far as it get. I have noticed that most if not all articles have used the term "street crime". Maybe it is so commonplace in those areas it is not sensational enough. There is more  of a story when the witness can say "i can't believe it happened here, it is so quiet around here"

I got mine from academy, I was sent a 20% off coupon in the mail. It did not work on ammo or guns so I went in looking for shoes. When I was checking out I glanced over at the metal detectors and saw that they had put some on clearance. This metal detector was 49.99 marked down from 179.99 so I used the 20% off on the metal detector and paid the sale price of 29.99 for my shoes. I paid $40 for the metal detector and I feel that I have already made my money back just in entertainment. The value of what I found is probably less than $1 but I had fun learning how to use it.

my trans acted up right after the required fluid change. I was so mad, it had never had a single issue before that.

I got a stellar deal on a metal detector and I just was able to try it out. I was out for 30mins in my back yard and had a lot of hits. I found and old fence line, some old nails, a chunk of metal in the shape of a triangle, and a few coins. The only thing worth mentioning was a  1942 Belgium 1 franc. It is not worth anything of value but has an interesting history. This coin was minted by the Germans in WWII during the occupation of Belgium. It is considered an occupation coin in Belgium. I was thinking of taking the beat up 1942 Nagant stock and inlaying it in it, lol. I have only done about 1/10th of my yard and I have found 5 pennies from the 40's and the Belgium coin. I can't wait to get out and find more.  

I was told that the med I was getting was no longer a "preferred" drug. I called my insurance company and they said that Walgreens charges the insurance company too much for that medication and that is why it is not a "preferred" medication. They said I would have to fill it elsewhere to have it covered fully. the medication was going to cost $78 at walgreens and I went to Target and it was covered and only cost me $4. I was talking to the Pharmacy guy at Target and he said he is seeing a lot of people switching from the big places like CVS/Walgreens/Rite aid because of the same thing. He said it is because of the deals they are making with the drug companies.

Whats a gun? :shrug:  I thought this was a car forum.

darn my Unicorns name is Steve, guess you will have to keep looking.

I have sold somethings in the last 6mo and between the ebay and paypal fees you are looking at 15-20% right off the top. I have basically given away most of the stuff I have listed lately. I only resort to Ebay after my stuff has sat on Craigslist or other sites first.   I know a lot of people that have shut down their Ebay business because they just were not making money anymore.

she is breastfed, and we look like we are in the clear. The newborn and I are doing great. The wife and the 1 and 2yo are a lot better.

The baby is in a room by herself with the doors shut and sheets thumb tacked on each side. I am the only one in or out. I change clothes and use sanitizer before I go in. We have the AC off and windows open. I cant think of anything else to do.

So far it has worked, the kids started vomiting on Monday night and I have been the one taking care of them and I have not caught it yet. I just figured setting off 3-4 bombs at a time throuout the house would save me a little time and allow me to use that extra time to sleep. I have not gotten much because I am spending almost all day spraying Lysol on everything. The bombs would atleast get the floors and the tops of everything.   I figure that is legal mumbo jumbo, they are just covering themselves just in case someone gets sick

I have a VERY sick family (mom and 2/3 kids) right now and with a 2 week old I need to kill as many germs as possible. I have so far prevented her from getting sick but now that my wife has caught it, it is getting harder to fight it. I have found online products that are basically Lysol Bombs. They are disinfectant foggers. I am not looking to replace the normal disinfecting that I am doing I just want to add this to the cleaning. I would like to "bomb" the room that the sick kids are in when they go to bed and then "Bomb" their rooms when they go back to quarantine. I have gone through 15+ cans of Lysol and would just like to make life a little easier by going over high contact areas with bleach or lysol and "bomb" the rest of the room.   Does anyone know where I can get these locally? If I order online it will take to long to get them as they cannot be overnighted.

I used to work for a Land Rover dealer and I was told that they can add any factory option at the dealer it just costs a lot to do it. I would force the dealer to do it or find you a Land Rover that already has it and has the same options and no more miles than you have, all at their cost. I have seen it done with a ripped seat so this should be doable as well.

Make the dealership install the factory satellite radio module. Every car has the wiring already there the module and antenna jus need to be added. My mother had satire radio added at the dealership and it is just like it came that way from the factory.

every paint guy is going to be different. The guy our dealer used worked on for about $40/hr. I don't know if it was a good deal or not but I felt it was for the quality we got and as fast as our car was ready. We dropped it off in the morning and we picked it up the next morning. The dealership said he did not come until 2pm and was there for 3 hours. So we paid $120 and he basically re painted the drivers side. An idiot at food city ran his truck along the driver side it didn't dent anything but scraped the paint along the whole side. It was cheaper to use him then file an insurance claim.

Best chance would be a body shop or a mobile paint guy. The mobile paint guy that the dealership we got our "new" car at did an amazing job. He wet sanded and blended new paint to the point that it looked just like factory paint. I have worked at dealerships in the past and found for the money they do the best job. I was told they do it for about 1/4 the cost of a body shop.

I have had several friends that have adopted through Bethany Christian Services. I know that all of them had 10+ guns in the house and all have their HCP and one told me that the person doing the interview just asked if there was any firearms in the house. They said yes and that was the end of it. In one case they actually had more of an issue with the pool. They forced them to put up a fence before they would even finish the application but never even asked if the guns were locked up. I guess ever organization is different. I would HIGHLY suggest Bethany Christian Services
