  1. A friend of mine offered a Bayard “1908” pistol to me at a nice price and I jumped on it. This one is in the less common 380 caliber. It was rusty and missing the safety toggle. I disassembled as far as I felt safe doing. There is not a good exploded view of how it is put together. At least none that I can find. Cleaned up the rust and got it cycling smoothly. For more on these interesting early autos see here.https://unblinkingeye.com/Guns/Bayard/bayard.html Will replace the safety at some point.

  3. Went to some old friends house as it was there last get together in the house they have lived in for 40 years. The game was on, I missed the start, O well. I stayed till just after half time, did not like the show. wandered around talking to others. I "did" see parts of the game but did not "watch" the game. I gave up on baseball after the 2nd strike for money, nascar after the flag thing, football when some players disrespected the country for not standing for the national anthem and the owners let them with out repercussions.

  8. I have a few of the TN Arms Co polymer lowers from a few years ago built up. I haven't had a single issue with them. If you are going lightweight I think the KP-15 setups are tough to beat. Also a very slippery slope where you start losing your oz/$ pretty quick.

  9. It's mounted, took me awhile to get it right but at least my math was right on the mount height.

  10. As cheap as standard Al lowers are, I see no reason for a poly lower. I see no advantage and only disadvantages across the board.

  11. 1. This is a Winchester 1873 Third Model built in 1893 (dated by serial number on Winchestercollector . Org). This has a 24 inch octagon barrel and is chambered in 44-40 WCF. This could use a good cleaning but has a beautiful plum patina to it. It has one new Winchester screw in the lower tang to secure the stock better, it is missing the dust cover and has a small crack in the buttstock. Everything is original to the rifle aside from the one screw. Plenty more pictures available upon request. $2000 OBO. May consider firearm trades of equal value. More pictures upon request.

  20. These NAA mini-revolvers are wonderful, I can keep a firearm even with my scrubs on thanks to their Holster grip which can also be installed on this model. I highly recommend them if wardrobe/non-permissive environments keep you from carrying a larger handgun as it does for me.

  21. Greg has spoken a great truth here... I've believed for a long time that " the justice system" ain't about justice at all. It's a financial enterprise. The more trials n hearings, the more lawyer fees. This works just fine until ya get a genuine killer like this guy. Ray Charles could tell ya this guy was headed for this end. We need to stop plea bargains and judicial deference. The people running the " justice system " by and large are not honest nor wise enough for " bargains " and " deference "... leroy...

  23. I mostly own Glocks but since I got my Shield Plus, it has been my primary carry gun due concealability and ammo capacity with the extended mag. The trigger is pretty good too.

  27. I got to tell you other members , this is a good deal ! If you don't like the manual safety , then don't use it. If you still don't like it , it is easy to take out. I did this on my own M&P with a manual safety. This is a good deal plus the magazines ! This is a "Glock 19" made by S&W with a lifetime warranty .

  32. I'd be fine with a text message alert that I an see in the morning when I get up, but linking in to the Amber Alert system is too much. First off, everyone knows what an Amber alert is. But you get woken up at 5:30 am to a "Blue Alert" and sleepy me says "WTF is a Blue Alert?" And what am I going to be able to do about it? 99.999% of the people that alert went to, rolled back over and went back to sleep. If it were something like "Take cover - Zombies attacking" then, YES wake me up. THAT I need to know ASAP and will do something about. And, don't get me wrong, I'm a supporter of Law enforcement, and this cop getting killed is a horrible thing, but I'm not getting alerts when my stand-up neighbor gets shot by the most dangerous bad guy in the state. Is the point of these alerts to let you know someone really dangerous is out there running around, or to just point out that a cop was shot? Sorry, I'm a little grumpy. Oak Ridge got a new alert system I signed up for and it went of at 5am this morning with a phone call to tell me a road was closed. I'm just annoyed with alerts this week.

  33. I think you're failing to size the neck of your brass. The Lee dies have an instruction sheet with them. Without a case in the shell holder screw the die in until the die just contacts the shell holder. Then lift the handle and screw the die down another 1/8 to 1/4 turn. Lock the die in place with the locking ring. Then run a case through the die. You should feel the handle go over-center at the bottom of the stroke, something like a click or a thud. Try that and see if the bullet still drops through the sized case.

  36. My grandparents raised 3 kids during the Great Depression and had a very large garden until they were too old to take care of it anymore. Had what I guess would be consider a root cellar, that was about 15X10 that was floor to ceiling shelves that by Winter was full of canned vegetables, fruit and meat. My grandfather hunted and fished for much of the meat on the table again till he couldn't anymore. Never forgot the hard times. Grandma cooked on an old wood cook stove till the late 50s burning wood scrapts that grandpa got from the ladder factory he worked at. We tried to have a similar cellar when we were in our 30s and with less than a tenth of the shelving at a garden maybe a quarter of the size, gave up on the idea after a couple of years as to much work. They were hardier stock, We're prepared to last a month or so in a SHTF situation, after that at out age I guess we die. I have told a few friends if the SHTF, to load up all their food, ammo and guns and come on out we have a more defendable spot than any of them.

  38. I didn't forget....just been busy. Mine's been waiting on me since last Tuesday but just managed to get it home today. Service Grade 1945 Remington Rand frame with a government replacement slide from Numax Electronics. Apparently those are well hardened slides, so I plan to shoot the snot out of it. Markings indicate rearsenaled at Fort Lewis - Mount Rainier Ordinance Depot. I'll send off a FOIA request and see what the Army can tell me about it. I haven't disassembled it yet so I don't know what markings I may find on the barrel or other bits. Anyway . . . here's the porn you all want.

  40. Am I reading this correct? This is going away That the citizens of this State have a right to keep and to bear arms for their common defense; but the Legislature shall have power, by law, to regulate the wearing of arms with a view to prevent crime. and substituting instead the following: and this is replacing the above? That the citizens of this State have a right to keep and to bear arms for their defense. If so I like it A LOT!!!
