  1. All mine have been really sick the past two weeks. My 17yr old son ran 104 for 4 days. My wife ran 102-104 for 3 days. I had it one night but man! I've never fever ached like that! Everyone has deep lingering coughs. The wife and son got tested and everything came back as negative for covid, flu, etc.
  2. Paralysis by analysis, way to much free time, and a need to make content.
  3. It's is pricey but I didn't pay quite that. You can get them under $900 (still a lot!) I'm not a revolver guy either, but the older I get the more I like revolvers and lever actions.
  4. Been looking for good . 357 carry revolver and was curious about the K6S or a King Cobra. Willis68 had both and I got to handle them both and both are fantastic. The K6S was just so light, thin, slim, and modern feeling. At the same time, it felt solid and tight. I really liked the looks of the 2" barrel but really liked the increased ballistics of the 3". I got to say this is the most carriable 3" revolver I've ever held. Excited to get it to the range.

  6. Like new Sig P365XL with a Wilson WCP grip. 2-14 rnd mags (MagGuts+2 internals). Also has a Tactical Dev 1911 rail. Easily removed if needed. Has had about 200 rnds through it. $650 Nashville area. No trades.
  7. The 92 is a Rossi. It's not a rare Winchester in the collector sense but still is a great gun. I personally have a couple and they have increased in value over the years.steve is who need to talk to about the Rossi. Great guy and is the source. ttps://store.stevesgunz.com This is from 2009 https://www.levergunscommunity.org/viewtopic.php?t=23168
  8. Is it as good as a Gen3? I would say it is a Gen 3 with a slightly different grip. It has some of the mods people like to make to the Glock. Like mag pull cutouts, grip smoothing, slide melting, etc. It uses Gen 3 parts so you can mod it as much as a Glock. If you were to blind test them side to side, I think you'd prefer the Dagger. Once your know what it is, the brand bias tends to kick in. It's a reminder how cheap the Glock is to manufacturer and still make a good markup.
  9. I'm a big fan and have had several but there are enough current 9mm +p rounds that the ballistic advantage nearly disappears. Add in that the cost, capacity, availability, and reloading advantage all go to the 9mm there really isn't an good reason to go .357 sig. It's a great round but I couldn't justify it against high quality +P 9mm.
  10. Haha, I guess that does make a difference!
  11. I've had an 85UL for some time and it's been great. It has a better trigger than stock Ruger and S&W's I've had. Traded the springs for Wolff springs and it got even better. One of the best DA revolver triggers I've ever held. That being said, I've held other Taurus revolvers that weren't close, so maybe I got a unicorn but it's a good one!
  12. I've tried and enjoyed these. BTW these are all the same 10/22. 1. Blackhawk Axiom stock. Lightweight and was great when my kids were small and growing. 2. Magpul X-22 stock. Great stock. A little heavy but solid and adjustable lop. 3. Desert Tech Trek-22 bullpup. This is my current stock and I love it.
  13. Mediations only work if there is a pre diagnosis natural imbalance. Introducing chemical altering/adjusting medication cause the natural process to stop producing its own chemical processes. Thus the reason giving these drugs during early development (ex ridilun, etc.) creates such large manic/depressive shifts later in life. It's been now proven that less than 10% of kids put on behavioral medications actually had/have natural chemical imbalance. Point being, as far as medication goes, we are creating chemical/prescription dependent people. Mix that with existing mental disorders (not chemical imbalance induced) that have no chance. What I gleaned from the manifesto excerpts, is that a girl with issues found enablers that encouraged her to embrace dilusion. I can almost guarantee drugs were prescribed to mitigate her response to the mental conflict. That set her up to quietly boil till the lid popped. I'm continually grieved that we take borderline people and pressure cook them with medication instead of acknowledging the reality that there is absolute truth and bringing thought inline with the reality of that truth. Ironically, the cognitive behavioral approach is the only one that had proven to be effective and it is the last approach used. You can't prescribe it. Off my soap box. They should have released the pain (manifesto, etc) early and let them move on. This isn't helpful.
  14. Couldn't they just take the whole headrest out with the push of a button or a little force? Seems like a great idea that is terrible.
  15. Yeah, I'm hypocritical on that point. Too many potential legal issues or threat of issues in today's climate.
  16. While that may be true, hypothetically speaking, I'm not selling under those conditions.
  17. I would operate under the law as I know it, 21 on the handgun. Ability to own and carry is not the same as ability to buy. I would not sell to a 19 year old. I left out the 21 in my first post but I usually say that attached to the "are you 21 and legally able to own a firearm" for handguns.
  18. 1. Are you a TN resident? 2. Are you legal to own a firearm? (Not a felon). I usually just ask, "are you at TN resident? and you're not a felon?" The ID and everything after that is unnecessary. You will get strong opinions about the extras and the methods but the above is all that is required by the letter of the law. Personally, I will do no more and no less. I understand Bill of Sales, but out of principal, I will not participate in those transactions.
  19. That has more to do with culture, population density, and geographical aspects than criminology and or penalties. That being said, the rehabilitation experiment has faired far worse than the punitive model. Even with those above mentioned dynamics. So, with crime being a constant, punitive works better than rehabilitation on the whole.
  20. It's this a pre-op for Biden? That being said, if you've done your time, you've done your time. When it's over, you're restored. Make sentences mean something and quit all the early, plea, negotiating releases, and sentences, etc. That's just for politics anyway. Do it and be done. It's idealistic but how I'd prefer it to be.
  21. Just make one with some spare wood.
  22. You really need to add a block under the frame. Pulling those straps down on the suspension has castrostrophic potential as you bounce down the road. Also, it'll hold tight and not compress with the suspension. Plus, the straps are only stabilizing and not putting retention stress on parts.
