I've been a pick-up man for most of my life. I still have my 2003 F-150 Super cab, but its semi-retired due to poor gas mileage. I keep it around for when I need to haul stuff. My current EDD is a 2011 Ford Escape. Nice little SUV and it gets 20+ mpg.

On another forum I visit, in their "Pic of the Day" thread, some folks like posting pictures of very attractive ladies in various states of dress. No nudity mind you, but still quite sexy. Recently, they've come to discover that some of these pictures are AI generated. You have to look closely, but when you do you notice small discrepancies. A missing finger or maybe an eye brow doesn't look quite right. Little things that most people don't notice. But they do look very real. All this AI stuff makes me nervous. Its only a matter of time before its used for nefarious purposes. If it isn't already. And now they can make movies? Put something fake on the evening news to control the people. The propaganda possibilities are endless. Scary stuff.

Update: I ordered the gun on Monday. Here it is Friday and it hasn't been shipped yet. Just got off the phone with them. My order should be processed today. However, they don't ship on Fridays and Monday is President's Day. Should be shipped on Tuesday. I find this quite odd as every time I've bought from CMP in the past, the order was processed and the gun shipped the next day. Apparently CMP is short staffed and running behind. Just thought y'all might want to be aware of this.

Must watch movie/television recommendations & interesting shows
Grayfox54 replied to Links2k's topic in General Chat
I recently got Amazon Prime Video. Reacher: Former Army investigator gets involved in mysteries. Great show! Highly recommend! The Boys: What if super heroes were a bunch of self serving, demented azzholes? Entertaining, but warning: very violent and bloody. -
I always wanted to make music. But one thing just kept getting in the way. A complete lack of talent.

Trying to find a song name and band from 90's or 80's

This it? -
If you find something, post a link. I'd be interested in something like that.

Current gasoline is only good for maybe 4-6 months due to the government mandated Ethanol added to it. Its the Ethanol that breaks down quickly and ruins the gas. However, adding a good fuel stabilizer to stored gas can greatly improve its life. Treated gas will still be good after 2 years. I had one can that I sorta forgot about and it was still good after 3 years.

I finally got through on the phone. It was quick and easy. Only took about 10 minutes. Ordered a Service Grade gun. Pics when it gets here.

Scope base for a M38 Swedish Mauser?

Get some shims and raise the front mount or get a mount made for that rifle. -
I got an e-mail Friday saying its my turn. Kinda confused me as last time they called me directly. But apparently, that's what they're doing now. I tried to call several times Friday afternoon, but the lady I'm supposed to talk to was always busy. Gonna try again on Monday.

ZOMBIE THREAD! 16 years! That's gotta be a new record.

Nice gun. I don't normally go for fancy, but I could be tempted by that. I wasn't aware that Tisas had a place in Knoxville. Is it a distribution center or do they actually have a factory there?

I have no idea. In In much of the world using a supressor is considered good manners.

Part of the problem is that you have a bunch of rich guys who have decided that nice classic guns are an "investment". The last few years have seen prices skyrocket on good older guns. This in turn has made the entire used gun market go up. What was a $500 gun just a year or so ago is suddenly selling for $800 or more.

The liberals have hit a new, all time low. They're posting on social media that Toby was a racist, fascist and they're glad he's dead. Just shows you that liberals have no respect for anybody that disagrees with them, even the dead. "F" 'em!
-
Most of the issues on this gun have already been pointed out. Just to add, the 6" barrel isn't near as popular as a 4". That will affect price some. However, its a desirable pinned and recessed model with honest wear. I'd put it in the $700-800 range.

Thanks for the offer. I will keep the FLGR and put it in the box the gun came in. If I should ever decide to sell it, I'll put it back just like it came.

Country music pretty much lost me years ago. But I did like Toby Kieth. He will be missed.
-
PM sent! Thank you very much. I knew you guys wouldn't let me down.

I bought a used 1911 that has a FLGR. I hate a FLGR! I plan to change it out to a standard type. I already have a spare recoil spring plug in stock. Here's the problem. Brownell's wants almost as much for shipping as the part costs. Midway has one that will do (although not my first choice) but estimates delivery at two weeks or more! Anybody in the Memphis area got a standard 1911 recoil spring guide rod they're willing to sell? Yeah, I know this should be in the classifieds. I just figured this would get noticed quicker.
