  1. No, I've never been asked. I've only seen unscientific polls on MSN.
  2. I basically recognized this too a few decades ago. I'm always wary of people continually asking for money yet show nothing as far as results are concerned.
  3. What...an...IDIOT!
  4. Add Publix to the list: https://www.wsmv.com/news/publix-joins-retailers-asking-customers-not-to-openly-carry-guns/article_ce567b66-d542-11e9-9497-d75b675af8af.html
  5. That's stinking cool to watch but mostly because of the fact that they can create an almost perfect vacuum in such a large space. EDIT: Also consider when that was built.
  6. Think about the physics involved with this. They not only have to deal with friction of the air but also with the track itself. I would love to see a slow-motion shot from the side and see how they structured the track to contain the device while keeping friction down.
  7. https://www.msn.com/en-us/video/science/watch-a-sled-travel-at-6599-mph/vi-AAH8e2d Air Force fires a sled at 10,620 Kph which is 9,678 fps. That's unreal!
  8. I would have loved to have something like this when I was little!
  9. No, it's not just you.
  10. I've owned two CMMG's and both of them were crap. I had an AR-15 that wouldn't center on the bull's-eye at 100 yards when the sight was drifted all the way to the left, and a 9mm that jammed more frequently than Guns & Roses.
  11. Better add Aldi to your list: https://www.wsmv.com/news/aldi-joins-growing-list-of-companies-asking-customers-not-to/article_e5720058-d3c2-11e9-adba-8f30739fc150.html
  12. The difference, however, is the person firing on the enemy or firing on your own people.
  13. I see it at Kroger quite frequently. I avoid them so in case someone tries to take them out first I'm not shot by accident.
  14. Supposedly, it's quicker for the eye to line up three dots in a row than to center a post in a notch.
  15. I bet he wears his ball cap backwards too.
  16. Coming up on 10 years. I asked her if she knew your BIL and she didn't. She knows a few people in the Custom Shop but she works as the Treasury Manager in the corporate office.
  17. The first Bald Eagle that I saw was a good 25 years ago in Missouri. I was driving to the Sam's Club and one flew directly over my car by about 50 feet. That was cool!
  18. For anyone interested, I decided to go with the J-45 M in Mahogany. We have to order it so it'll take 60 to 90 days to get it.
  19. I'm not paying anywhere near that much for the guitar. My wife works for Gibson.
  20. Yes, but I'm not there yet. I'm just now learning to play.
  21. Well, David at Guitar Center played some high end guitars and the Epiphone for us. We didn't care for the sound of the Epiphone version of the J-45 at all so that was out. He played a $5,249 Gibson J-2000 that didn't impress us. He played that for us because I'm a big guy and my wife thought it would fit me better. He played a Gibson Hummingbird Standard that they had priced at $3,800. It did indeed sound brighter and louder than the J-45 put still not our choice. He then played us a J-45 Walnut M and a J-45 Mahogany. Both were under $2,000 and we liked them because they seemed more mellow with a more full range in tone. I preferred the sound of the Mahogany version and was surprised that I could hear a difference. Lastly, David played a J-15 which actually impressed us; however, I'm leaning towards the J-45 because I think it'll hold value better. He also played a Martin for us that we didn't care for either. To your point about 5 J-50's sounding different I would agree given the difference between the two J-45's that were played, and both David and another experienced guitar player in the room said the same thing. Frankly, that makes getting one from Gibson without hearing it first a little tough to do. I know anything will sound good, but will it sound right to me? It's was kind of weird that high end guitars didn't sound better than the mid range guitars. I guess you're paying more for the artsy detail on the guitar rather than the sound.
  22. https://www.foxnews.com/us/houston-man-first-to-be-indicted-for-bump-stock-possession-since-ban Now who'da seen this coming?
  23. So the boss has decided that we're going to make a trip to the Guitar Center in Cool Springs to check them out first. They seem to have everything that I'm interested in in stock including an Epiphone version of the J-45.
