  9. Buddy of mine had his house broken into two years ago. Stole a guitar, computer, tv, and some other stuff. Found his guitar on Craigslist at a pawn shop witch lead to the thief's arrest. Guy got probation and court cost, that was it. These scum do it because there is very little penalty. Hope this joker get more.

  12. [quote name="theconstitutionrocks" post="1105133" timestamp="1391357454"]I generally tend to agree...if I'm going to be static in a confined area (ie movie theater...go figure) where cover or movement is limited or non-existant, then I'm wearing a vest. If I'm mobile, probably not, unless there is a significant potential threat...(going to recover the daughter and broken down car in the hood at 1 am in which case there is definitely a ..."WTF were you doing in this part of town at this hour..." ass chewing that is going to occur). With regard to being mobile, the tactical response in my view is get the hell out of the area first (it is NOT my job to move towards gunfire). If I can't do that, it is to take up a covered/concealed position which causes a "fatal funnel" for the bad guy and the element of suprise and oppportunity to shoot first, at fairly close range to ensure good shot placement and multiple hits (preferably the head) because I don't know if he is wearing body armor or not.[/quote] Body armor? Head shots?? I'm not being rude, but what kind of place do you live in? The world is a dangerous place, and carrying a firearm is just smart practice. But if you are in a place where you feel the need for body armor, then your gonna need a rifle. And head shots? I can't think of a single instructor I have ever heard in the civilian world or while I was in the Marines, that would advocate trying to get head shots. Especially using a pistol in a self defense situation. Tapatalk ate my spelling.

  13. Mobility and comfort are my big things. A pistol is a defensive weapon. If I think I'm gonna need body armor, I'm probably gonna need a rifle. Tapatalk ate my spelling.

  15. http://www.timesfreepress.com/news/2014/feb/17/no-more-falling-back-tennessee-lawmaker-wants-make/   Would you support TN opting out of the spring/fall time change and remain fixed on one time?  I personally would, I don't understand the need to adjust the time in the fall/spring.  All that accomplishes is a messed up schedule for my kids and myself.   I would like to see the nation as a whole get rid of the time change, but, hey one state at a time isn't bad.

  18. I call B.S. on this. A lot of the quote comes from Bernd Osterloh, head of VW’s works council, that is, one of the German Union folks. Of course he's going to bad-mouth the vote. I'm thinking Senator Corker only said those things that were true that VW management was legally constrained from saying. Additionally, outside agitation? Give me a break. The UAW from Chicago, and Obama, and the NLRB, have bigger and fatter fingers on the scales when it comes to outside influence.    IMO, the Chatt VW employees made the right call, and after some fits and starts, and after some screaming and yelling and jumping up and down, the right thing will eventually occur.

  24.   I don't buy much factory ammo now, but as far as I know, those calibers are somewhat scarce everywhere, if you are talking about on the shelf available for immediate purchase.  9mm is readily available online now, occasionally some .22lr pops up as well, I don't know about .380 as I've never owned one, but with the proliferation of pocket and compact pistols sold in the last few years I wouldn't be surprised to learn that it's hard to come by as well.   You might want to reconsider your definition of "happiness" (Wally shelves stocked full), otherwise due to the current conditions, you may be a very unhappy camper for a long time ... ;)

Lots of great ideas...just ordered 2 trauma plates and 2 princess backpacks from Amazon...one for the front one for the back.

  27. Yes, they are made out to be the heroes of the hunting world.  I wonder how many hunters would be obsessed with antler size if it were not for these shows?  The real heroes of the hunting world, if there are any actual heroes in the hunting world, are those that take kids hunting and teach them to be good stewards of the land and to be ethical hunters, and those that spend their time conserving the land and making it a better place for all of the people and animals.

  28. Saw that on Facebook this morning.  I've never heard of the guy.  I don't watch hunting shows because I have no interest in shows about only shooting trophy animals, I think it's a poor example of proper management.  I generally take a dim view of those that make these shows.  That aside everything I've heard about this guy indicates he is nothing but a thug that has no regard for game regulations.  Am I missing something here?  He certainly is not the first "hunting celebrity" to find himself in hot water for violating game laws.   As far as his daughter goes, I'm not sure how old she is but I would venture to bet that more of us had a baggy in our sock drawer that our parents didn't know about growing up than did not.

  30. Wow! Dolomite, that makes every TC Contender - Encore frame a mystery! I would imagine that thinking a frame was a pistol could cause one to pay more for it than they normally would, if they knew it could only be a long gun...legally. No doubt, there are probably people walking around with pistol barrels on rifle frames!   Does the factory publish the serial numbers somewhere, so that a person about to buy one from a pawn shop, or an individual , can tell what they're buying? It seems they would have marked the frames some way so a person could tell which frame they were looking at.

  31.   Well, actually, from Nov. to March after you go up the mountain from Kingston, you become two hours different than the neighboring states from where you began. :)   I don't see how a state being a hour different from all the other states in same time zone can do anything positive, but likely an extra hindrance and irritation in ways we haven't quite considered.   - OS

  41. I prefer DST.  If we were to stop doing DST, the "standard work day" needs to change from 8-5 to 6:30-3:30.   That's another reason why I hate winter...  I go to work in the dark and I come home in the dark.

  45. Okay boyo's let's do what we came here to do. Lets make us some zombie death pills! Safety is YOUR responsibility!!! Understand that because I'm not going to repeat it again. If you get toasted, don't start pointing your burnt stump at Caster. He told you not to screw around! The pot is hot. The ingots are melted. Remember the part about fluxing? Yeah, do it again. And again if something don't feel right. Cleanliness is important. Do you want a crusty booger that might have silica or ferrous material tear microscopic gouges out of your precious with every bang? Okay. Make sure your ladle is clean and dry and stick it in the pot to get warmed up. I like to prop my mold up on there too to soak up some heat. Giver a sec to get warm. Okay, pour the cavities full leaving a small puddle on top. It's very important to learn to get that right. Too little and the base of the bullet will not fill out. Too much transfers unnecessary heat, makes a mess and makes you look like a goon. Just cuz we rednecks don't mean we can't be professional. Now watch the puddle. See it change shades. Never open a mold while it's shiny you'll smear lead and/or tear a chunk from the base of the bullet. it should turn kinda dull, it'll look like a magic trick as it changes:) Like wise you don't wanna wait too long. If you see a plug torn from the base it's no good. That void will cause leading. A smooth flat base will hold while the powder burns but hot gases will push into the void and vaporize lead during ignition. It also causes inconsistent weights and uneven pressure on the bullet. All this affect accuracy. Some people hammer open the spru. They've done it for eons who am I to say different.....but I don't. I use an opened vise. Hold the mold by the handles, insert the spru head in the opening and pull. Reason I do this is two fold. First I'd rather not beat the crap out of my molds. It's unnecessary. Two is I want a smooth shearing action to give me the smoothest base possible. A smooth flat base is priority number one. And while we are on the subject of not beating up our molds. Never hit the mold body. Use your mallet to hit the hinge bolt on the mold handles to drop stuck stubborn bullets. And we do that over the water can. Just let them plunk right on in. Do it gently now and don't let the water splash. Also when, and it will happen, a drop of water hits the mold, wait until it quits sizzling. Pour molten lead in a cavity where there's water boiling and the steam will pop like a little firecracker which will make a bad bullet, scare the pee out of you and possibly pop hot lead on you. Don't do that. Well, how many you cast here is up to you, your patience and your supply. Don't worry about wrinkles and what not. Just learn the ropes. All bad bullets can be remelted until you get it right. Take this time to just learn and feel what's happening. I will say this. Cast two or three and drop them on a towel and let them air cool. We want them softer and in the continuing saga you'll see why.
