  1. Sign him up for the healthcare marketplace. He'll get calls galore. Also, I could give you more pointers, like plastic surgery centers websites for a consultation. Or post an ad on Craigslist with a photo of a hot blonde looking for a hookup, with his number. These are merely immature suggestions but always great for revenge.

  2. Police speeding.   Using a cell phone in a theater.   Using a cell phone while driving.   Having more than 10 items in the express lane.   Taking up more than one parking space.   Hunting from someone else's deer stand.   Flying a drone over someone else's property without permission.   Visible underwear in public.   Agreeing to do something and not following through.   Putting sugar in cornbread.   Having a dremel tool near a quality firearm.   Spitting out used chewing gum where people walk.

  4. Looks nice. I just don't think I want that hanging on my truck. They say you have to know your audience--I know mine and there will be no outward sign of gun ownership on my truck. Rarely is there a gun in the truck that's not on my person. I just don't want someone knocking out my window to check.

  5. Another thread got me thinking...   Why did everyone turn their back on the A2?  Everything is carbine, fast twists [stupid!!!] and how many trinkets can we pack on there.       Anyone else miss a nice set of fully adjustable iron sights?  Not the A1's, they were godawful, but the A2's were great.  Toss in a 12 twist pencil profile barrel and you got well balanced rifle that's a joy to shoot.    I've been toying with the notion of building another one.  Got a bare lower begging for new project.  hmmmm, Maybe a set of triangle guards and three prong out front.  LOL.

Hooters causes 1) males to objectify females as sexual props 2) the worst buffalo wings on the planet 3) more fuel for the feminazi agenda 4) places for creepy old men and teenagers to gather 5) pressures females to dress like hobags 6) adds more sexuality to the American food industry that wasnt needed 7) I dont like the color orange Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

  7. I am going to assume the issue is the other shooters and their guns, not your guns. You know when your gun is going to go off. It is the cat next to you, or two tables down that is throwing your groove off.   You can double stuff as mentioned above, ear plugs and muffs, that will help muffle the sound. However you will still hear it, and if you are close enough feel the concussion.   My suggestion would be to sit there and close your eyes. Sit back off of the line at the back of the range. Just absorb it all. Don't shoot, just listen and feel. It might not happen instantly, but with your eyes closed you won't have any visual cues to warn you the blast is coming. It will just come. Take a few minutes to let that sink in, then try tuning it all out.

  8. I cover mine with a drawbar and 2" ball.  It has protected my bumper in the past, makes a nasty hole in expensive, plastic-covered front bumpers.

  9. You can type their phone number in on Facebook. If his number is associated with his account it will pop right up. I do that a lot when selling on Craigslist just to get an idea of who I am going to be meeting with.

  12. Well even us veterans still flinch!  So don't feel too bad.  There are a few things that will help you:   Double Stuff ( wear foam earplugs and ear muffs ) not only will this help preserve your hearing, it will lesson the noise and concussion of shooting making it a bit more comfortable.  Wear eye protection as well.   Properly grip the firearm.   Youtube has some great videos to help you properly grip your firearm when shooting.  This will help with the recoil and make you more comfortable. You can back down a few notches in caliber.  Try shooting a .22lr pistol for a while to get used to trigger and other mechanics involved in shooting. Snap Caps:  use these to help practice dry firing.  This will also help you with your shooting mechanics.   Shoot more  :)

  13. Remington has become more interested in building their corporate portfolio than building a quality product. The problem with current Marlins IS Remington. Remington blows. You take their flag ship: the 700. Comparing two 700's side by side, one made today and one made in say, 1960. Its the same difference in a Wilson Combat and a High Point. Both very serviceable and all, but really.... If you find yourself shopping for a Marlin lever gun, do your best to find one made in the 50's. They are arguably the best made Marlins out there....ever.

  16. Ehull20000, I hate that you guys weren't able to get one to come in. Hopefully, next time. I'd be interested, and I imagine others would be too, if you'd tell us some details about your coyote hunts...like what kinds of guns, ammo, calls, camo, stands particulars, layout of land in front of your stands, did you hear coyotes in the area, what time did you get on the stand, and how long do you stay on a stand? Us wannabe newbs can appreciate every single morsel of tips and information we can get to improve our coyote hunting skills. Thanks.

  22. Chip Cain is an attorney and a sponsor here. He can really help you. Have him draw you up an NFA trust. Then, go buy a suppressor. Be happy. Worked for me! I used to think I hated AR's going off cause they are so godawful loud. Got my first can....now I KNOW I hate them. EVERYTHING needs a can on it! Lol!

  23. Her owners are great. I couldn't have done better in choosing a great home. And now apparently I've been bitten by the bug. I'm getting another foster pup this Tuesday. All I know is she's 4-5 months old. It'll be a surprise I guess. Praying to god she's not a Tasmanian Devil. LOL!

  25. Why would you ask a police officer if there were certain no gun signs?  By asking that sort of question, you are basically advertising the fact that you are carrying to someone you do not know.   If you didn't see any legal no gun signs, I would keep my mouth shut and if you think you can carry without being found, then carry. If you think you would be found carrying, then I wouldn't go.  Now you have given those folks the idea to stick up the right signs.  Remember they don't have to stick up legal no gun signs to use a metal detector on private property, but once they stick up the signs, then there is a possible weapons charge.  As of now without the signs, you don't risk a weapons charge.

  30. My understanding is that 1:7 will stabilize any ammo from 55gr up to 77gr. Special Forces is using 77gr ammo now and everybody wants what they are using. 55gr is common plinking ammo. And people want a rifle that will run and is accurate with anything they can pick up off the shelf. I'd personally like to see more A2s and slower twist rifles out there. Actually I don't know of many, if any, factory built rifles with a slower than 9 twist barrel.

  32. *whiney airsoft voice* but Delta Force SEAL snipers use Scars and daniel defense mk18s! Most of the weapons are inspired by what SOF uses and what video games do. The current M16s/M4s suck a bag of phallic statues... Hell there is a reason a lot of Tier 1 dudes use Mk12s, I prefer a longer barrel...I did like the A2, well balanced and simple Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

  33.       Sounds about how mine was. I have a raised garden that is about 12X 12 with a few side boxes. It's nothing major but more than enough for my wife and I plus I supply the office with veggies. I am going to get a couple more loads of ultra soil this year to help with the issues I had last year.

  34. Sidecarist has given some very good insight on how to flatten the shaft and countersink the hole - - - the most important advice being Go SLOW! But, before cutting into any metal...., I would give a different holster a try. You state that you had a problem getting the holster's button to latch. Appears to me that the holster that you are using places pressure in a couple of areas that might have an impact on the issue that you had.

  36. It's not hard to flatten the end of the shaft, the hard part is making it look nice, touching up the finish, etc. If you're handy use a brand new 6" or 8" single cut file. Remove a bit at a time and trial fit. Go SLOW. You can use a new sharp multi flute countersnk on the hole, again go SLOW! Then there are finish touch up issues to deal with. Do not use power tools for this, throw your Dremel in the trash. If you are unsure about any of this then please please have a gunsmith do the work. It's a shame to botch a job on a nice weapon...

  37. "True" Marlins are identified by a JM proof mark on the barrel. :lol:   Yes, all Marlin lever-actions have exposed hammers.  Methinks Greg is referring to Savage 99's.   You can Google for pics of the cross bolt safety.  They started in 1983 I think.

  40. Im pretty sure the military swaps the barrels out, all that they use is the action. The m24 i believe was a long action 308 while the m40 was a short action.  Now they are re barreling the m24 to shoot 300 win mag.

  41. Without any pictures I'm just taking a wild-ass guess here.......   Is it possible that the thumb break area of the holster had enough pressure on the right side to push the tip of the thumb safety shaft toward the inside of the frame?  That could have moved the safety out away from the frame on the left side just enough to allow the plunger and its spring to "depart."  Would also need to know if you were carrying in condition 1 (cocked & locked).    I have seen tight fitting holsters press the slide release in this matter..., that is why many 1911 gunsmiths will countersink the right side frame holes and bob the end of the shafts.

  42. I got used to guns in basic training. :up:  After that, the only gun that surprised me was my Desert Eagle .50  Didn't know what to expect when I pulled the trigger but I found out. B) Noise cancelling headphones work terrific as I can hear what's going on around me between shots.
