  1. I could see where one might think Shoot'em Up was anti-gun, but I tend to see it just as entertaining writing... and if we are to believe the gun indistry was the antagonist in the film, then certainly the anti-gun Senator was the protagonist, no? Oh, wait... he was, as one blogger quoted: Not to mention the big gun manufacturer in the film is in cahoots with government bureaucrats to crush his opposition and competition. IMHO, it's just the classic tale of widespread corruption from the bottom to the top
  2. You forgot to add, "and use secret marching orders hidden in plain sight on everyday traffic signs".
  3. Started P90X this morning. So far, here's my thoughts: 1.) It's very challenging. 2.) Tony Horton is kind of a douche. 3.) It's very challenging.

    Whats next....

  5. I have a brother in San Diego and when I visit out there, we often go down to Baja. I usually buy a box of Cohibas while there... I'm due for another trip.
  6. That reminded me of "O'Brother, where art thou?"... the scene where the kid notes that "I nicked a cenus man" right before informing Pete that his parents have "R-U-N-O-F-T"
  7. This is my favorite "Gun Movies" thread: http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/general-off-topic/14450-favorite-gun-movies.html
  8. Sorry to hear that, man. I've had a brother and a few friends go through some pretty nasty divorces as well, but they're all better off and happier now. If you were my neighbor, I'd invite you over for a beer or 12.
  9. Haha, point taken crotalus I don't think you worded anything poorly, I was just making a joke about the general nature of forums, particularly gun forums.
  10. Checkout NewEnough.com They're like the TJ Maxx of motorcycle gear. It's all name brand high quality stuff, but most of it's last seasons gear, so you'll get a great discount on it. Motorcycle Superstore has some of the best prices I've seen on tires. I got a pair shipped for less than the dealer wanted for the front tire alone

    Trust paypal???

    I've had a PayPal account for over 5yrs, and I've never had an issue with it. A few months ago, I attempted to buy some things off ebay through "Buy It Now" auctions. After having payed both vendors, I got email notices from ebay informing me that the accounts were hacked, and the users accounts were now suspended. I informed PayPal, and I had all my money back in less than 3 days.
  12. Received my DVDs for P90X today. I plan to start on Monday, as I want my rest/light day to be on Sundays. I'll keep you guys posted on my opinions of the system.
  13. If anyone shows up in true gun forum form and tries to argue the best method/armament for going on a homicidal rampage, I'm driving to their house to kick them in the nuts.
  14. Welcome! "Do or Die" is one of my all time favorite albums

    UAE Caracal pistols

    Yeah, they're smart. They know there oil supply is finite, and will probably be tapped in 15-30yrs, so they are using their oil monies to build infrastructure that will support their economy in the future. Mainly tourism and manufacturing, however they have been attempting to buy up a lot of top minds for their universities as well. I believe I read something about several miles of beach being developed on a resort there... They buried pipes underneath the sand to control the surface temperature of the sand! Lots of impressive displays of modern engineering going on there right now.

    Sig P238

    I just wish the thing shot a respectable round
  17. There's GOTTA be a story here
  18. Probably the best point in this thread.

    Opinion on HK USP .45?

    I'd rather be packing .357 Sig than .40, but I'm a .40 hater
  20. I concur about the VROD, but I don't think the XR is particularly "un-Harley". The XR750 had a VERY rich racing history. ...as far as price. I have yet to see a Harley priced at what I would think ISN'T "too much"
  21. Cool! Wasn't aware of that at all. Last thing I read about it was in a cycle rag last summer. It got reviewed by a handful of guys that usually ride sport bikes, and they all loved it. The only cons they mentioned was 1) lack of cruising range and 2) it was only approved for the euro market (but I guess that's changed ) EDIT: Just visited the HD site, seems like they're ramping up advertisement for 09.
  22. Perhaps he should have added: "and as we are wealthy, we can hire security to protect our homes and families". Try as I might, I can't seem to find the word "hunting" in the Constitution.
  23. Dude, I heard the DOS attacker hacked a Gibson!
  24. A real beaut! I really love the G10 grips Wilson pumps out.

    Opinion on HK USP .45?

    I absolutely love my USP9c +1 to everyone else's sentiments about it being barely broken in. HK does of course command a premium... but If you can scoop it up for 550-600, I would jump on it.
