  1. Having a number of your knives and given as gifts a number more, I like your style. I like that you have a fairly defined style. You do it well. Looking forward to the knives to come.
  2. Here my Rossi m92 I mentioned earlier, that my dad engaged the reciever. I did replace the wood with Precision Gun Works wood. It's my kids favorite shooting gun, not to mention mine! It's as great as a tactical/shtf gun as it is a great wall hanger.
  3. I use the no longer available Gunsafe. Works really well for me except you cant access it remotely or through a cloud. I started using Guntrack for my current guns. Guntrack I can access anywhere. Makes it useful when using it remotely.
  4. To put a legal business out of business. If you can't get what you want legally, use what you got. A raid doesn't have to produce evidence of crime, It only has to intimidate and scare potential customers off. ATF headache solved.
  5. Well I may or may not have two and I'm far from a felon or gangbanger. I like them because it's a Glock that you can fix all the things you don't like about Glock "perfection" while retaining the best parts. I'd be concerned that the BATF would use Polymer80's records to find "illegal" weapons owners and cause legitimate owners legal jearpordy. All because they can. To me this is far more a concern and reality than keeping true criminals from using a Polymer80 product. I too am surprised by magic's position but also know he's far from an unreasonable man. I assume there's context missing. Either way, I'd probably sell him a "ghost" gun. If I had one!
  6. My understanding is that they have t-cell development or develope t cell immunity in process, that kills the virus as the get it. If that's the case, then they aren't transferring it
  7. By all know measures they aren't spreading it and they are getting it at a statistically non-existent/negligable. Also, the Harvard study showed a very strong likelihood that kids either had or were developing t-cell immunity naturally.
  8. Lack of testing, short term side effects, complications with existing medications, complications with existing medical conditions, unknown long-term side effects in otherwise healthy individuals. There is a reason trials usually takes years, not months. While not a vaccine, it is similar to what happened with bith control pills in the 70's. Because it was new, the dosage was extremely high. While effective many of that generations cancer ills of the present, we are dealing with now. 30 years later, we now know there dosage should be a fraction of what it was. Every action has a reaction and sometimes the cure in the short term has to be balanced with them long term trade off. It is actually good if the young, healthy, and not at high risk people hold off a while to let the initial vaccine run the first course. The trade off for "at risk" with the initial trial is an acceptable risk.
  9. I've had two Rossi M92's in.357 mag and tehy have been awesome. Here's a couple resources that make them incredible lever guns. Steve DIY action job makes a huge difference https://store.stevesgunz.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=5, another action job write up - http://marauder.homestead.com/files/Rossitune.htm, awesome stocks - http://www.precisiongunstocks.com/
  10. Its circular. You have first timers and you have speculators. The regular user is crushed by both, but probably more so the speculators. Speculators start drying up sources as demand from first timers rise. I have empathy for first timers, I have much annoyance from speculators. The good part is watching the speculators trying to unload after the tide subsides. Main reason I want the tide to end is so I can start negotiating with speculators on their cache of drawer parts they overpaid for hoping to turn a huge profit. Those are the best most pleasing deals!
  11. Not sure it's a great way to handle that... But wow! Iron sights, no less, moving in a helicopter is impressive!
  12. This ^^^^ Historical context helps to understand application and understanding of a principle at a specific time. Principles transcend dynamic application. In other words, the reason the Constitution transcends time and culture is because the principles are "found to be self evident". What we wrestle with is the "application" of the principle in a changing culture not the principle. However, the leftists are attempting to remove the principle. That is the slippery slope with a cliff into the abyss at the end. Those on our side who can not apply transcendant principles/truth with changing culture are just as bad as those trying to remove the principle all together.
  13. Yeah, and I'm in the middle of dealing with Metro Nashville Codes on a building permit. It's as bad or worse than lumber prices.
  14. Wow, a hog with a .22lr? And I thought 5.56 was way underpowered for hogs!
  15. I agree. The Californians NEED to be buying all they can get before the state tries to stop it again. Tennesseans could help by not drying up the supply lines unnecessarily. We're on the same page
  16. It's stuff like this that creates the problem. If you were planning on getting them... get them. If not, hold of till supply replenishes. However, if you just have to.. you also probably need to run to the store for milk, bread, and toilet paper RIGHT NOW!
  17. Maybe someone could explain Asian Americans and Indians (from India) in the US?
  18. I prefer CCI Quiet .22LR. I may or may not used it to rid the yard of groundhogs with my Ruger 10/22. Works well but at 720 FPS shoot placement is still important. Bonus is that it's consistent and accurate. Their sub-sonic runs at 1050fps and works better but adds a little more neighborhood noise.
  19. Anytime I'm told to "kindly" anything you know it's an offshore/overseas scam!
  20. Haha, my wife's favorite! If you see one, you have seen them all. It is neat to see how actors have aged. Hallmark appears to be where actors careers go when they're dead.
  21. Interesting. Not at all what I expected to happen!
  22. Interesting, care to elaborate?
  23. Got to say everytime I see this thread pop up, I remember how much I miss Mars. Listening to nothing in particular.
  24. Haha, than you shouldn't be in a gun forum, because "eliminating guns saves lives, so we shouldn't resist". It's literally the same argument on the same premise with identical moral and philosophical points. I can show you just as many studies, journals, physicians, articles, etc to the contrary. There is a reason doctors "practice" medicine. Arogance and assumptions in a dynamic event is not good medicine. Good doctors know that, bad doctors talk a lot.
