A lot of Covid survivors are gonna end up bankrupt.

Moped is correct. Cimarron specializes in Cowboy Action Shooting guns. Their 1911 is a copy of the original for use in "Wild Bunch" matches. Its not what you're looking for. I also have a Norinco in my safe. Its getting kinda hard to find one that's unmolested. Many were used as a base gun for some fine custom jobs. I decided to leave mine original.

Not necessarily. Just be smart about what you say. The feds are used to pro-gun groups and our talk. They know that 99.9% of us are relatively harmless and basically good citizens. The spy bots, web crawlers or what ever they're called these days look for certain combinations of words. if you say something about violence along with specific names or places, you can bet you'll get noticed. Just don't do that.

Privacy hasn't existed since the Cold War. Anytime they want .gov can peak at you, your phone, your computer, etc. They can track your movements within a few feet. The trick is to just stay off their radar. Be the gray man. But if they ever notice you, God help ya. My phone spends about 95% of the time sitting on the dresser in the bedroom. I'm good with that.

I've got two Rock Islands and have been very happy with them. However, if you want a better gun at not much more money, I recommend Springfield Armory.

Maybe its just here. Could be entirely up to the local manager for all I know. But its getting worse and the vast majority of the people who are dying now are un-vaccinated. Taking the vaccine or not is a personal choice. I can respect that. But this is a major HEALTH issue. Over 600,000 Americans are already dead. Why are so many trying to make it political? I'm all for freedom, but it doesn't matter if you're dead.

Didn't specify. So I guess its everybody. A few weeks ago it was masks for the un-vaccinated. A couple of weeks ago the mask signs disappeared. Now its back to everybody. From what I've been seeing on the news, I'm expecting another lock down soon.

Just got back from a quick trip to my local Kroger. The "Mask Required" signs are back up. Get ready for another round folks.

Their company, their rules. Either accept it or quit. Covid is making a big comeback. The Delta strain is kicking butt big time and expected to get much worse. Companies requiring vaccination are just trying to stay in business. At the current rate, I fully expect requiring masks to be back soon. I also wouldn't be surprised if we ended up back in full lock down.

Hard to pick just one. I love 1911s and S&W revolvers. Doesn't really matter what model. I suppose if I had to pick just one, it would be my S&W Model 18 .22lr. I shoot this one more than any other gun I own.

EPA cracked down on lead wheel weights. They are pretty much all gone. The owner of Tennessee Valley Bullets is a friend of mine. For years when I was working, I'd collect our wheel weights and trade them to him for cast bullets. He's pretty much out of business now. Can't find enough lead. Now its just a side job for him and he only casts for friends and long time customers.

Just announced on the local news. The I-40 Bridge is now completely open to traffic both ways. TDOT said they got the construction clean up done ahead of schedule and reopened earlier than expected.

Well we don't have a serious meme thread. But I thought this was too good not to post.

I've had run ins with both water moccasins and tornadoes. So far I haven't been bit or hit. But I have hit everything else on that list at one time or another. I LOVE this state!

TGO doesn't have thread drift. We have tidal waves!

Isn't all that just common knowledge? Why make a list?

When I was a kid, I had one of the Man From Uncle toy pistols with the rifle accessories. It used a separate metal magazine that you loaded a roll of caps into and them inserted it into the gun like the real thing.

Howdy Dave, Always good to see another local boy. But be careful, you might just learn how to be a smart azz here.

Dusty Hill, the legendary bass player for ZZ Top passed away in his sleep last night. Damn! They are one of my all time favorite bands. I really hate to hear this. He will be sorely missed.

Anybody who speaks well of Memphis, obviously doesn't live anywhere close to it. Time Magazine? Just more fake news.

I was browsing a totally innocent website when an ad popped up advertising ladies clothing and a holiday sale for National Orgasm Day. Curiosity took over and I looked it up. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Cool! As y'all know, I love the M1A. Its my favorite battle rifle. Looking forward to a range report.
