Easy solution. Open your own range. Good target systems are only 10k or so per lane, plus backstop material at another 5k+ a lane. And since you don't mind people shooting high add another few thousand to expand your backstop higher. Generally for a mere 15-25k a lane you can make your own rules. I really hate listening to people whine about a charge that they new about and disregarded anyway. If you are unable to shoot below the line then either move the target closer or aim lower. Seems pretty easy to me. I would rather shoot at a clean well cared for range that had strict rules to keep it that way than at some of these poorly ventilated basement dumps that don't.

My 4runner with 1919a4 pentle mount would probally do the trick. :rofl: [URL=http://s173.photobucket.com/user/keatonspencer/media/64631_1282722207497_3637864_n_zps8ec7fd69.jpg.html][/URL] [URL=http://s173.photobucket.com/user/keatonspencer/media/120824_002_zpsc28527b7.jpg.html][/URL] [URL=http://s173.photobucket.com/user/keatonspencer/media/IMG_3477_zps54e980ba.jpg.html][/URL]5 points

Okay so State Rep. Joe Carr (for those that didn't already know) announced that he would be running against Jim Tracey to unseat incumbent Congressman Scott Desjarlais. Now in an effort to try to give Lamar Alexander the boot, Joe Carr has been solicited to abandon his effort to win a seat in the House of Representatives to instead take Lamar's senate seat. I'm not 100% certain on this but I was contacted by a mutual friend saying that there would most likely be an announcement tomorrow stating such. Lamar has managed to hold favorable standing in all hypothetical polls I have heard of but I believe that is mostly due to the almost total lack of a serious contender.. With the support of most Tea Party groups I hope and believe things will change ( I know, we've been burnt everytime hope and change shows up in the same sentence). This is exciting news to me because there is virtually a 100% chance that we will keep a Republican in the house seat anyways but stand to gain a true dyed in the wool Tea Party conservative in the senate which we are dying to have more of. I guess we will find out tomorrow whether or not this is actually whats going on but I for one have my fingers crossed.3 points

are you reffering to yourself here? I dont think they'll miss you one bit. Maybe they wont have to repair their system either. You are being awful beligerant for someone who signed an agreement before entering the range. You knew the agreement and failed to hold up your end. Plus they are a paying sponser of TGO, they deserve a little respect. If you dont agree with the $8, fine, shoot somewhere else, but your are crying over something that you admitadly did. its like complaining about a speeding ticket by saying the speed limit was too low. You kew the rules3 points

I don't believe for a fraction of a second that his "conservative" highlight reel is anything more than him baiting the trap with nothing more than a hollow conservative shell. He may have done some good things over the year but even a broken clock is right twice a day. Folks need to remember that primaries are the time to vote your convictions, principals and morals and I feel like any medium to high information conservative voter can tell Lamar is not looking out for us. He's been in Washington a long time and is over staying his welcome IMO.3 points

I grew tired of the bickering and petty nature of my business. Coming home every day stressed out. 34 years old and way to much gray hair to count. Life shouldn't be like that in my opinion. So I threw my resume off to a recruiter and PRESTO... less than three weeks later I've accepted an offer with a better title, pay, cheaper benefits.. and it's just right up the road! Now, changing jobs as a family man is stressful in itself. It worries me that I'm leaving the enemy that I understand for the one that I don't. But honestly I feel like Peter from Office Space here with one week left to go. Think I'll leave early today and go clean my new gun :) Fellow TGO'ers If you're overworked and overstressed, please don't drive yourself to an early grave. You weren't put on this planet to watch the bottom line of someone else's riches! At least not for someone who doesn't appreciate it. There's always something better out there, you just have to look.2 points

Yeah. Now a lot of units have LA-5s or whatever they're called now. They're smaller than the PEQ-2A and run on a 123 battery. In addition to the IR beam, these ones have a visible laser on them too so you can scare Hadj and screw with feral cats; I'm pretty sure that's what it said its purpose was in the manual.2 points

Usually the stress and BS in IT comes from management with zero background in IT trying to micromanage. Am in a situation now where someone is pulling in six figures overseeing people with multiple degrees in IT and they claimed their iPhone was broken because there was no capital "P" on the keyboard. They had their phone phone wiped and restored multiple times from getting locked out because they couldn't figure out where the shift key was :stunned: Put that person in charge of a multi-million dollar project with multiple vendors involved and you're two steps away from a stroke at all times.2 points

So, are you all ready to have your mind BLOWN?! Back in November of 2007, my platoons first patrol to Marastana we found his helmet, pack, and other stuff. Remember what he wrote in the book about what he took on that mission? Small world eh? I should probably mention we knew it was his because his name was written inside his helmet. Yes, we sent it back to the Navy, whom gave it back to him. Obliviously only the helmet.2 points

Meh, lots of guys here support gay rights. Figured they might as well take a good look at the new military. I'm a pretty simple person. You keep it out of my face, I don't give a damn who your sleeping with. That goes for anybody, gay or straight. That shit has no place in the public eye.2 points

I have quit using anything any more. I used to soot my molds but there is no need IMHO. I do take some Flitz and a Q-tip and polish the inside though. Takes about 30 minutes then I clean it real good with Dawn and a toothbrush. I then use more Q-tips to remove any water in the mold to prevent water spots. Let me guess Lee molds? They can be just enough off center to cause the bullet to hang up.1 point

Seems like a reasonable request on their part, and a punishment that isn't easy to forget. I bet next time you will try everything in your power not to shoot over the line. That's why they charge $8. You insinuating that its a money racket is laughable.1 point

Pretty much every "Republican" in the State is publicly supporting Alexander, as all the Leadership of this State is tied to the Liberal ideals that he espouses. Haslam and Harwell have been alter persons for him forever, he shines his light on their actions and HE can do not wrong in their eyes. I remember Maggart said her only job was to bolster the brand, that a walk-off proof majority was the linchpin of her craft, damn the Constitution and what is the right thing to do. The People got tired of it, and could do so again!1 point

What most folks like about the cbob, myself included is the look of the polished flats and cocobolo grips. My understanding is that since the vbob is more of a defensive fighting gun, they went with a finish that was easier to maintain (glass bead) and reflects less light. During the off season the vbob prices always rise, but once they start flowing you can often find them for $1400-1500 and sometimes less. Be patient if you find a cbob because the quality really varies on the pre 2010 models. Especially so on the pre CZ models.1 point

Glock 26 for carry of any kind. Glock 34 for all else. Yes, I have no problem carrying 9mm. Especially when you get to carry so many in each mag. I've had a Shirld and XDs in 9mm, but still prefer a G26 Gen3.1 point

I would probably just assume to have a G26 or 27 over all of them. For most people they shoot every bit as great as the full size models. I have been carrying a G26 Gen 4 over the last 5 months and have barely touched anything else. I actually prefer a G23 over a 19 for a couple of reasons.1 point

You are an asshole.. seriously.. just take him back and shoot him?

We love this dog and I would pay a helluva lot more to keep all our animals from suffereing... Now get out of this threat if you cant be anything but nice.... jerk!!1 point

The thing that seems to jump out at me besides the lack of blood on the broad head, which I feel like there should be some due to braking the skin in two places, is that it appears to my old eyes is that the arrow seem to be in better focus that the deer. the deer are both a little blury due to rapid movement but you can see the sharpened edge of the broadhead and the the edges of the fletching. I would think the arrow would be moving just as much if not more the deer at that moment. On the other hand what the hell do I know??1 point

I like how you equate exercising rights with sabotage. That was a nice touch. :sarcasm: This is the kind of statement that gets out rights taken away one step at a time, when even gun carriers can't support other gun carriers. Also, deerslayer, your boss is the nimrod, not the OCer. Seriously guys, stop blaming other gun owners who are going about their daily business. I'm not talking about the Kwik's, I'm talking about the average folks like you and me who happen to stick their shirt on the inside of their firearm. This kind of nonsense is absolutely shameful coming from a "pro-2a" group of people. We stand together or we fall together. Period.1 point

he has knowledge and skill but I really doubt how much surviving he does on that show. There are youtube vid's some of you may allow yourself to watch ;) that show him surviving from a reverse angle as his camera and tourists and vehicles are clearly visible just yards away.
