As big as you can afford.

Mine at the age of 12 decided that she was smarter than me, now at 33 she has 2 daughters of her own, one 12 one 13. She is now seeing that I wasn't such a dumbass as she thought.

When you have a son, you only have to worry about one dick.   When you have a daughter, you have to worry about all of them.

My dad always says that the teen age years are God's way of helping to cut the cord, so you're ready for them to leave when they become an adult.

There is only a single pin in the grip safety that denotes the post recall guns. Has nothing to do with pins in the trigger.

I thought the chinese resturants usually got them.

Seven daughters, one son.  Every one of them very different.  The house got so quiet once they were all grown and on their own, we got three dogs and a parrot.  The dogs and parrot never ask for money or talk back.  Well, sometimes the parrot does.

Built myself a new bow for this year, plus some matching arrows. Can't wait for it to cool off a little :D

It looks like we are finally going to be closing on a small piece of land in a couple of weeks...   Of course as a red blooded 'murican male I claim as my birthright the necessity of owning a tractor.   Looking at something around 39 HP in 4wd (probably a Kubota) It will have a small bucket on the front and a detachable back hoe on the back.   My question is what size to get. This is probably the only chance I get to buy one so I need to make it count. I won't be moving around a bunch of hay. Mostly general farm chores. There will be a fair amount of trenching and other backhoe work to be done in the next 5 years.   What size does everyone think I need to get? I would appreciate any and all info and suggestions.   Thanks, Mark

The 10/22 is a must have I think, I turned mine in to a tack driver with a Kidd barrel and tac sol stock, in house trigger work. It is unbelievable. I also recommend the Henry, you cannot go wrong with a Henry! A 22lr is a must have for the collection, now ammo availability right now is a different story.

I broke down and traded off my 2007. Heritage classic and picked up this 2014 Ultra Limited a few weeks ago. Adding a stage 1 kit to it this weekend.

My dog got loose once after I had him 15 years. He was gone for over three days and made his way home. He was wet, dirty, and hungry BUT he found his way back. Dogs know where they belong. I'm sending positive thoughts your way. Sent barefoot from the hills of Tennessee

I hope she isn't too far from the house and that she finds her way home tonight.  If there is anything I can do to help, let me know.  If it is coming to look around the neighborhood, I would be glad to.  

I grabbed one of these up today at Ruger Days at the Outpost Armory. Employee pricing all this month. Couldn't find a better price anywhere. $294.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvJD1dAmIrE

After having gone without a modern sporting rifle for awhile, I'm building another one. The name of the game here is budget. These are all parts I've gotten in trade or for super cheap. This is just the mock up, and some things are subject to change. Dsa lower, DPMS slick sided upper, Wilson combat 16" heavy barrel, Magpul moe stock, FSD compensator, and MI low profile 15" rail. Right now it has a leapers 3-9 scope and an A2 grip but will end up with a BCM gunfighter grip and charging handle, and a budget red dot. I have considered machining the upper and bcg to build a side charger and may still do that. I'll be using a Black Rain Ordinance drop in 3.5 lb trigger for a light clean break. I'll update as I go. This build will end up with a paint job, either a desert mint with black accents or a camo job for the surrounding terrain.

My only question is how much this will this cost us.....just for the Army to make a decision.  I guess around 5 million.

Folks, if God willing and better health...I'll be out for sure!   Dave

I have a 20 cubic foot upright Fridgedaire freezer that I use 24/7. I always have deer, boar and fish stocked in it. Not sure how much energy it uses monthly, but I know I couldn't feed my family without it. A good freezer is indespnsable!   Dave

Up to 20ish!

Thank you very much for the help. It is greatly appreiated.

What the heck is going on with the bottom of the grip? Is something wrong with the picture?

If a candidate disregards the TFA, can a citizen expect the candidate to listen to him?

If you send it for repair, let us know the results.  I really like the LCP as a backup and Ruger has a reputation for good customer service.

I'd send it to Ruger for repair and then keep a close watch on it.  Mine has not had a problem, but every time I carry it now I'll be checking it.

buy it.  I sold one for a little more than that and regret it. Several years ago but needed the cake to buy the oldest grandson things.  So it was a fair deal.   Wish I had another way though.  If it was today there is no way.   Someday I will have another.

I really love the game. I love the scenery and just generally feel good on a golf course. I've learned to meter my expectations and just have fun regardless. Although having lessons has helped and I hope to get some more soon.

On another note:

Ya know if the pilgrims would have shot a cat instead of a turkey on thanksgiving we d all be having somethin besides bird on thanksgiving <efg> Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 of course it ate my spelling.

When did they start making the bolt black? Oh btw. I don't usually say this to a guy, but that's some nice wood.

I have always said that if I had a daughter she would be chained to a radiator and there would be shallow depressions on my property filled with her boyfriends.

Daughters train on Fathers so they are experienced when they get married......to drive that man crazy.

There's gotta be at least 38 threads about the brace/AR pistol/ATF ruling/poor man's SBR around here.

Heh, kinda fussy for people who count "frogs legs" amongst their local specialities. I certainly wouldn't blanch at giving armadillo a try if it was fresh killed and well cooked.

Only someone over 50 would know what seersucker is. And yes, I really need a classifier. I am so expired:(

The Midsouth folks are good people.  We need more like them in the shooting community.

  MMMMM C-rats. Spegetti and beef "chunks", beef and potatos, I especially enjoyed the hardened 1/2" thick slab of lard that setteled on the top. One of my favorites was ham and eggs, kinda like a pate made of powdered eggs, I would trade turkey or cheese or my John Wayne bar for that.

Exactly. Take the same advice for a gun safe, garage, etc. Not so much for a woman, however. :rofl:

PM me your address. I have something every 300 Blackout owner should have. It won't cost you a dime.

I play redneck golf. I have a buddy that works at a golf course, and he gave me a 5 gallon bucket full of ratty old golf balls. I take them out and shoot 'em. Pretty challenging at 10-15 yards with a pistol, just plain fun with rifles further out! Large, flat nosed bullets (44mag, etc) really send 'em flying when you hit 'em square on!!

  7 total posts in 3 years and you use one of them to bust me!  :stunned:

opt for the flipper.   My Kershaw is as fast to open as the Boker and the flipper is truly ambidextrous.

  If you have to use your sidearm in combat, something has gone terribly wrong. 

Yes you were, and I accept your apology.

It may be okay with the ATF, but has it been tested in Tennessee? It does not meet the Tennessee definition of a handgun or a shotgun. I see the risk of being arrested for possession of a sawed off shotgun under state law, with big lawyer bills to follow even if you win. 39-17-1301. Part definitions (15) "Short barrel" means a barrel length of less than sixteen inches (16'') for a rifle and eighteen inches (18'') for a shotgun, or an overall firearm length of less than twenty-six inches (26''); (16) "Shotgun" means any firearm designed, made or adapted to be fired from the shoulder and to use the energy of the explosive in a fixed shotgun shell to fire through a smooth-bore barrel either a number of ball shot or a single projectile by a single function of the trigger; 39-11-106. Title definitions. (16) "Handgun" means any firearm with a barrel length of less than twelve inches (12'') that is designed, made or adapted to be fired with one (1) hand;

Let's be honest here. Carbine classes, tactical training, etc. arefor the vast majority of participants nothing more than a fantasy camp for the gun crowd. Very much in the same vein as a football fantasy camp where you get to spend a weekend working out and scrimmaging with a couple of over the hill NFL second stringers.

They are everywhere.   Seems like everyone is a tactical expert in some way or another these days. It is like a modern gold rush with everyone trying to get their piece of the tactical training pie that is getting bigger and bigger every year. And every time I see a new one pop up in my area I check them out. The vast majority should not be teaching at all because they have no clue other than a course they took themselves and now think to themselves "Hey I can teach this stuff". The vast majority were never in the military and those that were in the military were not Special Forces, MARSOC, SEALS, PJ's or anything else like that, they were regular guys like mechanics or truck drivers or cooks. Not knocking anyone who has served but just being in the military, other than SOF or CAG etc, hardly makes anyone enough of an expert to be teaching others tactics. Then there are those who flat out lie about who they are and what experience they have just to get some of the money that is to be made. There are so many phonies and imposters out there it boggles the mind. Some of the fakes are very well known and were just able to market themselves really well (Pat Rogers or Ben Thomas).   We had a guy on this end of the state that was teaching. Enjoyed making a lot of money in his HCP classes but it turned out to be he was never licensed to do the classes and was just taking people's hard earned money. After he got caught he said it was a preparation course for the real HCP classes. And the hundreds of people who had attended his class, and paid good money, had to pay another "instructor" to get their HCP.   I am all for people getting the training but make sure to really research the person who is teaching. The classes are EXPENSIVE and the last thing you want to do is spend your hard earned money only to be disappointed by what was taught or to feel duped. Never trust anyone when it comes to your money or safety, verify it on your own.

or could be that they were avoiding it altogether so they can bend whichever way the wind needs them to so they can grab onto some power.  TFA has a pretty big presence, the fact that their staff or they would disregard it says a lot.

  ...because they don't make a .46.  :stir:

I have already taken 1 members payments for this knife, if you want to pay early for this, PayPal $240.00 to rovmanwillis@yahoo.com This will go on until September for payments but I have now had several of you asked so I will take them and put you on the list

There are clips, and then there are magazines. In any case, it should not damage either one to keep them loaded. Springs wear from being cycled, not from being compressed.
