  1. Leatherman here.  My first one was in late 80s that I broke the pliers within a year, sent them in, and recall had it back in 10 days.  I acquired a 2nd one as a Christmas gift in the early 90s, and kept it too.  They both look new and are still used time to time.  No complaints.  I admit some of the models have appeal, but no justification for me since mine do the job when needed. 
  2. I often thought about buying tool die steel plates you know the ones that are 1" thick, and maybe build a box around the safe, but coming through the door, like this example, baffles me how to add extra protection.

  3. I tell you something funny.  I am also allergic to goose feathers.  So the technician was telling me to avoid jackets with goose down, blah, blah, blah.  What she didn't know, I have a couple of heirloom pillows that my mother had as a child that I have slept own all my life.  Yep, sure enough stuffed with down feathers.  I have slept on those pillows all my life sort of a goofy thing, but they are heavy and comfy, and all that I have ever known.  I still sleep on them till this day, but they are sealed now, and shots work!
  4. If you are under 40, enjoy and modify and do what you want, its only money and have fun.  If you are over 40, keep it OEM, use the money for other purposes.  OEM to me is the only way to go.  I modified too many things when I was young, its no longer a draw card to me.  The art of getting old. 
  5. Doesn't the magnet thing scratch the slide?  Otherwise, I like that.
  6. From birth until 12, I have had numerous ear infections due to my Eustachian tubes being clogged (snot from a runny nose).  Had about 3 or 4 sets of tubes in my ears, tonsils out, etc. and like the doctor said I would out grow it when I was around 12, and he was right.    Fast forward, never did have another problem until about age 35, and it all came back.  I have had about 10 sets of tubes, and right now have some with high mileage.  I did have allergy testing done about 5 years ago at the doctor's request, and sure enough I have allergies.  So about anything that grows in East Tennessee I am allergic too, so I started allergy shot therapy.  At first I was skeptical, but now after 5 years of allergy shot therapy, its very rare that I have runny nose of any kind.  Which is great, because a runny nose is the source of the ear infection with fluid backing up due to clogged Eustachian tubes.  I still can't go long without  tubes, or my ear drums push out from fluid, so I am destined to have tubes for the rest of my life.  Due to having many tubes, my ear drums have lots of scar tissue.  I likely will have serious hearing problems when I am older, and I am 48 now.    So, bottom line, I feel for anyone with ear problems.  I have had so many ear aches the pain endorphins have been addicting. 
  7. Exceptions............If you are from North of the Tennessee border.     Just kidding, welcome.
  8. How would you like to come home to this, see below. Posted this morning on FB AR15.com.
  9. Shoot the living daylights out of it.  Don't bother cleaning it afterwards either.  Well, maybe clean it afterwards. 
  10. I think the previous poster is right.  Its a default code word for accidental trigger pull or other reason to the pull the trigger when the truth is actually suppressed. 
  11. More information today from TWRA Facebook:   TWRA Confirms Two More Cougar Sightings The Cougar Action Team (C.A.T.) recently confirmed a couple of more cougar sightings. You can see the map by visiting the attached link. THIS DOES NOT MEAN there are additional cougars in the area, but rather a confirmation that a cougar was indeed seen. Could be the same one from back in the fall. Still, you can keep up with "confirmed" sightings on our website. ... http://www.tn.gov/twra/article/cougars-in-tennessee   http://twra.maps.arcgis.com/apps/StoryMapBasic/index.html?appid=800fe4e965594896ad6200e5ed1ccbab
  12. The whole Bernie beat Hillary badly is what is funny.  She is the chosen one, isn't she?   Has she not followed the script!
  13. I know you guys are probably right, but just for today only today can I not relish in the thought.  I will worry about reality tomorrow.
  14. Oh, just one more! I can't help myself! The millions of dollars, the schemes, the setup NY Senator ==>2008 Run==>Secretary of State==>2016 Run==>Finish 2nd to crazy Berny!!! Ha Ha Ha [URL=http://s963.photobucket.com/user/runco0318/media/old%20man%20laughing_zpsxuo9znt1.jpg.html][/URL]
  15. I can't help myself and it alone deserves its own post but if not just to record forever and forever in the TGO server this one moment in time............... :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/elections/2016/primary-caucus/new-hampshire?intcmp=hpbt1 [URL=http://s963.photobucket.com/user/runco0318/media/hahaha_zpsngbtfehb.jpg.html][/URL]
  16. Can you not bake them or laminate them, they are clay should be the same principal of clay pots & etc.  A bet a good wood turner could make these quickly and easily.
  17. Just don't play poker with her.  Rumor has it she has a great poker face.
  18. I admit I was worried about her attire and any deviation from the song.  Couldn't have been further than the truth, she hit a major homerun in my book.  I still will not listen to her music though.
  19. That was the greatest generation ever!  Thanks.
  20. Poor ole Mississippi, I'm sure they will cave now! So much that I would have thought would never change, but it has: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3434597/Quantico-actress-Aunjanue-Ellis-makes-statement-Mississippi-flag-s-confederate-emblem-NAACP-Image-Awards-red-carpet.html Quantico actress Aunjanue Ellis looked stunning at the NAACP Image Awards on Friday, but she also spread a message with her white dress. The front the the Mississippian's white dress featured the words, 'Take it down Mississippi', along with a red hand print. The dress also featured a red hand print on Ellis's back shoulder. The Help star's message referenced her desire to see the Confederate emblem taken off the flag of Mississippi.

  21. Titegroup here as well, come to think of it, I use Titegroup in many calibers.
  22. How is the show, and is there anyone there selling good quality used 50 caliber ammo cans.  I suddenly have a need, and I can't find any (in my price range)!

    Ruger question

    Not sure about a 6' barrel, that would be difficult pulling from the holster, but I will look about a 6" barrel.  ;)
