Today I was browsing in a local pawn shop owned by a friend & happen to notice he had a German Luger in the case. This was a real beauty & has been very well taken care of by somebody. I'd call the finish at least 90% & it even had the original leather flap holster & two magazines. It was priced $1,250 so I told him it was very nice, but out of my range, but he winked & told me I could shoot it for free. I thought he was making a joke until he pulled out a box of Speer 9mm & told me to follow him outside. It didn't shoot like most old military pistols I've tried. I was amazed at how smooth the action was & how little recoil it had. We had a good time tearing a two liter bottle to shreds behind his shop. When all was said & done I was really impressed at how well it performed & it made my day to have the opportunity to try out a pistol that I've mostly only read about.

Finally came in carried yesterday for the first time I was reading about people's first time carrying and I was the guy who would adjust his shirt everyonce and awhile right now all I have is a owb serpa holster I'm waiting on my crossbread super tuck deluxe to arrive so I can actually conceal carry

I delieverd for the Papa John's in Lebanon years ago.  There was no policy forbiding customers carrying on the store at that time, drivers were forbidden to carry though.  I did anyway, figured losing my pizza delivery job and keeping my life was an okay tradeoff.

Pool had a leak, would loose about 3 to 4 inches a day,to old to try and fix, so we just had to drain it. :cool: [URL=http://s896.photobucket.com/user/redintn/media/pool%20drain/pooldrain1_zps02030e53.jpg.html][/URL] [URL=http://s896.photobucket.com/user/redintn/media/pool%20drain/pooldrain2_zpsc54b00e0.jpg.html][/URL] Pics of the recoverd boolits 1st set, 44 cal 300 gr round nose 2nd set, 44 cal HB filled with powder coat and loaded backwards 3rd set, .690 ball from a 12 ga 4 set, 45 Colt [URL=http://s896.photobucket.com/user/redintn/media/water%20shot%20lead/boolitsfromwater2_zpsf005c02b.jpg.html][/URL] It was almost to much fun.

I prefer not to disclose because it has nothing to do with why I was stopped, I'm not going to tell him about all the stuff in my car that's not a danger to him.   I don't see a difference in telling him I have a gun and telling him about my grandma's toe fungus. Neither are relevant to why I was stopped. 

I'd rather walk . . .

Congrats and be responsible! :up:

It sounds like, despite the circumstances under which you came into this money, it could be classified as "fun money." Given that, I would get something along the lines of...

True, but even Shiloh asks "Are you sure?" when you ask for one in .45-110. My shoulders hurt enough as it is. Indeed. :drool: And you suck, just so you know... :)

And yeah it does...How about an 1859 Original Sharps .45-100 that saw service in the Civil War, The Indian Wars and as a Buffalo Market harvester.... And....it's a 1000 yd gun, that I shoot around once a week. [url=http://s587.photobucket.com/user/ren1795/media/IMG_2791_zpsa1d38dd2.jpg.html][/URL] Now that's cool..... :D

Dunno what within reason is, but a Colt Python would be excellent

I would buy this without even having to think about it: http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/topic/79977-saiga-12-shotgun-price-drop-1200/?view=getnewpost That is one sweet shotgun!

I haven't bought a new CD in a long time.  That's about to change.  A bad Pink Floyd album would still be better than anything on the charts today.

You don't mention where you are, but if you are able to meet me in Lebanon I'll give you a great deal on new 5.56 US military stuff, just purchased from J&G during their big sale. I do need it but willing to share to help a TGO member.

with no Roger Waters it really isn't Pink Floyd, still looking forward to it.

Hey teachers leave those kids alone. Or better yet... Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change?

Found my dog today. Went passing out fliers and a couple said that a guy had brought her by their place looking for the owners. Told us exactly where we could find her. She was very well taken care of during her 3 nights away from home.

who decides what crazy is?  what is the criteria?   I don't trust it one bit

A friend of mine told me last week that a 90 year old relative was informed by VA that if she didn't remove a weapon from her property, they would stop the monthly payment she was entitled to receive.  There are too many opportunities by different government agencies to abuse a seizure law without due process.

Ok. I'll be the odd man out here.   I like it.  Period.   Looks pretty similar to the Sig 250.   I'd certainly like to see and try one before buying...but...I do like it.    Oh...and Steel, may the ghost of Jerry Ahern torment your dreams for that low comment.

kroil will probably protect, but honestly, do NOT use it on your guns for these purposes.   It is what wd-40 is supposed to be:  penetrating oil.  It spreads, and creeps,  and will loosen every pin, screw, whatever else is in your gun --- things will probably start to work loose just from shooting.    It would work as a lube for a while, but it will spread too thin to really serve there.   It will protect, but its going to creep and make a mess.   Its just not the right product.   If you have a rusted bolt/screw or stuck pin or even a stuck case in a die, use kroil -- its probably the best in of the class.   If you want to CLP, use something else.    Also, I have no idea if it harms any types of plastics or finishes.  Probably ok on finishes.   You might use it to clean, but I would not.    Also, talk about an oil that will ruin ammo fast... I can assure you that if any oil can get into a primer and powder, this one WILL.

I know I am not well off.  I am pretty sure I am not poor. I am blessed with a great job and know I am overpaid.   I work for the best man in the world.  I assume I give him value in what I do.  Or surely he would replace me. Or at least not pay me what he does,  I never have asked for money.  Hired on and had no clue what my pay rate was.  Like I said I work for a great man.  There is no one I have ever known I think more of than Bob.   So I read I should not pay more than thirty% of my income for housing. I damn well pay more than that for my mortgage and all that comes with it. I cannot pay my mortgage with one pay check.  I have a 100K house (when I bought it), more than three acres wooded.  I have some debt but I manage. Great credit rating.  Banks want my business.  I contribute 8% to a 401K.  Got a few K in the bank.   I really thought I was solidly middle class,  Now from what i read I am pretty much considered poor   WTF?   what is middle class anymore?

I e-filed for my SBR on Feb 2nd and a new Suppressor around March 1st. Got them both back today. Not too darn bad, especially compared to my 11 month wait on my first two before you could efile. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am sure it was just a product recall for safety of the democratic party.   I haven't read it or seen the movie.   America: Imagine a World without Her by Dinesh D'Souza Link: http://amzn.com/162157203X

The affected ones will fail within a few openings, if you have opened and closed yours no matter the serial numbers multiple times, you are good to go, The short spring will slip out of the blade if it is one of the affected ones   I know of 4 of them that have already been repaired and sent back to the owners

We really like the show "Psych". In the show their Toyota Echo they call it "The Blueberry". My Wife loves raspberries so she has already named it "The Raspberry". She's awesome like that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

How did this work out for you? I want a low recoil autoloader that is made in the USA. This article says it has less recoil than the Beretta Extreme? http://www.fieldandstream.com/blogs/gun-nuts/2011/12/top-5-softest-kicking-semi-auto-shotguns

First off, the best Pink Floyd album of all time is Wish You Were Here. B)   Secondly, I simply cannot get excited about the Floyd releasing tapes from the vault from sessions when they were already on the decline as this seems to be.  I'm sure there will be one or two tolerable tunes but nothing like their past work.  There's a reason none of it was released before. ;)

1)  Get rid of that warranty, you don't need it.  2)  Change the air filter and oil reguarly.  3)  Drive the crap out of it. 4)  Don't jump it or enter demolition derbys with it. 

I would suggest a model 21 Winchester.

Click on the pic, it should play, wife hit low and it broke lose. http://i896.photobucket.com/albums/ac165/redintn/pool%20drain/th_VID_20140706_184258545_zpsb7f06b75.mp4 Well click the link.

O Brother where art Thou is definitely my fave.   Followed closely by The Shawshank Redemption, and We Were Soldiers

Cost not much of an object... A Sharps rifle in .45-70, specifically a Quigley. Doesn't get much cooler than that. :)

Collaborating with the enemy, put em on the list. Glad I don't use costco. Idiots

I'll give you a good example of how this law would be used maliciously...and every man in here has probably experienced this........     A woman scorned....................

Also, the comment about "if police had been informed about mental issues or firearms."   Who does the informing? Some disgruntled family member? A spouse? A neighbor? Someone just wanting to cause trouble for you. It could be any of these.   Give the Government or any agency, LEO, or not, the ability to come into home and search.   Think several times before you say this proposal will be "OK."   Any one of us could be that person if we tee off even a guy on the street under this.   Definitely NOT a good idea.

  Those are the million dollar questions. My bet is that money and emotions will decide everything, because those who write the laws will be working in their own interests (job security), not anyone elses.

This law will be like every other "gun control" law(except the standard background checks)...It will be for the most part innefective, and likely be abused by gun grabbing jurisidictions across the united states..The larger problem will still be there, and remain unfixed...

I think most if not everyone agrees that someone not right in the head shouldn't have a weapon. gun, knife or anything else. Problem with seizure laws is it's almost imposable to get your property bank after it's been seized. Also the burden of proof, that you are not off your rocker, is on you.  There would have to be a lot of controls on these laws to keep them from being abused, but still allow them to work.    

Casablanca. Great cast great story and great acting. All John Wayne movies. All the Marvel super hero movies.

The M9 isn't as bad as everybody makes it out to be.  I've heard every rumor under the sun as to why the U.S. Army uses it, but at the end of the day, troops aren't assaulting the objective with only a pistol in hand.  Most infantry Soldiers never even get issued one until they become a senior NCO or company commander.  It's main uses are for tankers, MP's, SOF units, and all the field grade staff officers who never leave the FOB (no joke, a pistol has become one of those 'rank has its privileges' item).   As to the which rifle round is best sidebar...a big thing that isn't being discussed is military shooting is different than civilian shooting.  Suppressive fire is used so units can maneuver into place and that means you use a lot of ammo to keep the bad guys heads down while your buddy is exposed and moving.  Loading out 5.56mm rounds means every rifleman can carry more rounds than if they have 7.62mm and the trade off in performance isn't worth the risk of having less ammo on hand, IMO.       Even earlier than 2010.  We saw the first M14's come to our arms room in mid 2005 while I was in 2d BCT at Fort Campbell.  They were in vacuum sealed plastic and still had the wood stock on them.  I was there helping my armorer when we opened them up and it felt like we were curators handling a relic.  Units were issued a great 10x scope that we mounted onto them with a kit and about three months into our Iraq deployment (early 2006 time frame), the first polymer kit came out to give it modern options like adding an IR laser and other trinkets.    It's a great weapon when you have a guy trained how to use it correctly.  The layout of one or two marksmen per squad we had works well, IMO.

My wife's uncle had to have his taken away after shooting the ceiling and bed. Could not remember if they were loaded he said. It's sad but a responsibility to keep others safe.

Thanks to the TGO member that sent me this showed up today. Never know unless you ask. I like it happy to have one. Jason

I ain't fightin'  :poop:   If there's ANY possible way to run, I'll be diggin' a trail as good as any coward on earth. :leaving: If I can't get away and there's a threat to me or my wife....that's why I carry.  I leave the fisticuffs to the UFC guys I watch on TV.     I've found that holding your tongue and looking with both eyes goes a LOOONNNGGG way in preventing the need to brawl.
