  Gomer... How did these guys wear...?  Did they stay good n smooth and quiet as they wore...?   My nephew is at Nitto fan, but he hasn't run 'em far enough to have a "real" opinion on 'em... I like their looks too...   leroy

  Our man Prag has hit the nail on the head here, and has went to the jugular vein of the problem... This has been goin on for a long time... There is, in fact, a leftist education intelligentsia; it is, in fact; workin to see that the population is indoctrinated and not educated... It started with a fellow named John Dewey.... "The father of modern education"...   Well done my man...! leroy

Fitty... This ain't aimed at you or is it intended to be a criticism of what i would term "instructional educational endeavors (...which i think your video is...)... Its an old geezer's rant about what I have observed in the current atmosphere in the discussion of issues on which there is a sharp disagreement or a revisionist position on ... The specific subject is the Civil War, it's rightness (..or wrongness...), the attendant symbols, the honor of the participants... on and on... ya get the idea.... That bein said, here goes...   Divergent or sharply debated views and articulations of those views are a hallmark of the American experiment... This country is one of the few truly free nations on the face of the earth where you are able to discuss all views, good, bad, or indifferent; heinous or holy, profane or good, and do it without fear of ostracism, or interference from governments and special interest jhadists...    The leftist education intelligentsia, the "public discourse" intelligentsia, and the news media has so firmly planted the idea that somehow anything they (...not you...) deem to be "improper, racist, or whatever "thing dujour" they deem to be "bad"" must be prefixed with the phrase "...I'm not racist (...or whatever... fill in the blank...) but"....     This idea was conjured up by these sons and daughters of satan to put anyone who disagrees with them or does not follow their "dogma" on the defensive and to set him back on his (...or her...) heels before the discussion begins... It's "defacto" giving over your right to sensible, reasoned discussion, and sometimes your First Amendment rights to "robust discussion of issues in the public forum" to your adversaries... It's an attempt at self censorship; pure and simple...   The lamentable lack of knowledge of the principles on which this country was founded and the re-writing of history to suit the disgusting views of jhadists of all stripes; be they the black grievance cottage industry, the anti-american hippies, the socialist demagogues, or whatever other bunch of clowns or would be tyrants hoisting their views on whatever subject has brought us to this sad point...   I say, don't be intimidated into being put on the defensive to explain any view you may have... You are not obliged to do those things... If you are in the debate or discussion business, that's what it means... Reasoned discussion... The hearers are obligated to listen and consider your argument; then agree or disagree with it... It's called "robust debate"... It's a hallmark of a free society...   There are folks out there that want you to be a slave and bow down... They want to muzzle you an intimidate you into silence and/or inaction... The demagogues, would be tyrants, and speech and history revision jhadists among us are tryin, and in some cases, succeeding in making people voluntarily give up their right to voice their opinions in the Public Square... I think that's a disgrace, and i'll not let people do that to me.... Neither should you... All of us here are Americans... We should not be afraid of folks callin us names... What if you are a bigot...?  What are they gonna do about it...?  Not a dammed thing...    Remember the wise words of the great French thinker Voltaire..."... To find out who rules over you, simply see whom you are not allowed to criticize..."...There is no discussion off limits, and there is dammed sure no subject that needs a "preemptive apology" before the discussion begins... .. Your mileage may vary...   non apologizin leroy, the free speech geezer...

Been usin Dick Cepek Fun Country II's on the Wrangler...... Plenty smooth... All that bein said; its hard to beat Michelins of any flavor... If ya want smooth and long lastin, look no farther than Michelin or Bridgestone...   leroy

I like it...!  Got his brother in a model 13...    leroy

Tercel... This is most likely the problem... Ya need a bit of lube on the expander ball...   leroy...

D.M. Bullard... Look at their site and pick one ya like... I pretty well like em all...   leroy

Dolomite spoke a great truth here... These are ancient monsters... The way to deal with ancient monsters is to decimate them... That's how the Romans did it... Sometimes terrible brutality is the answer... I think this is one of those times... US General William T Sherman said:   "...War is cruelty...There is no use trying to reform it... The crueler it is, the sooner it will be over..."...   leroy

We've got one in 44 mag... They are a great little lever gun... They are great shooters... They did, in fact, make em in 357 mag... Ive seen very few of them for sale over the years...   Enjoy... leroy

This witch ought not to have done this... The Ruskies aint near as tolerant and effeminate as the rest of europe... She has evidently forgotten Chechnya...   Watchin leroy...

This is me too Willis... Be glad ta send a few along... I'm a pocket knife junkie anyway...!   leroy

Wrap it up... I'll take it... Yall pick the logo... leroy

Coms hit the nail on the head here... We used to use Herco, and it burns about like Unique... We used the 7.0 recipe with the 230 grain hardball loads with good results... Herco used to be used more than it is now.. A bit more velocity with heavier bullet weights...    Hope this helps... leroy

Glad ta hear it... I hate condescension...real or non intended...    leroy

Who said they were... The intent of the post was to point out that the 300 blackout and the 308 are different... I aint sure what your intent is; could it be to show us all how smart ya are...? leroy

res... RE: This... I've got powder that's older than some of the 30 somethin year old posters here; and that aint meant to be demeaning... It's simply true... It's pretty easy to tell if the powder is bad... I always smell for the acetone type smell (..smells like a solvent... and is...) and look ta see if the powder is still gray colored... If it is, its ok... If it smells funny (...acrid or bitter...) or has a red or brownish tinge, i wouldn't use it... I've got canisters of DuPont IMR type stick powder that is at least 30 years old...    RE:  The 38 special reloads thing... My "go to" reload with 158 grain hard cast bullets is 5.3 grains of Unique...I also like the old 38 44"High Speed"  load of 12.0 grains of 2400, but ya need a big pistol to shoot these in (...the "44" referred to the 44 frame revolvers the loads were designed for...)... That's most all we use... I think a jacketed bullet is a waste in a 38 special; but that's just me... Right here is a great 38 special reloading treatise from a guy i like alot...   http://www.sixguns.com/tests/tt38spcl.htm   Hope this helps a bit... leroy

  Amen brother...!    Well said...   Thank you for speakin out...   admirin leroy....

Here's a geezer view... We used to shoot a lot of 308 thru bolt guns... A 308 is, in fact, a long range round... I think it's a waste of time to shoot a 308 less than about 250 yards... They are deadly accurate out to 1000 yds...witness the use by the military in the olden days... I like the 300 blackout, but comparin it to a 308 is like comparin a pistol cartridge to a rifle cartridge... They simply aint in the same league...   leroy

I got one of these too 1m.... They are a great thing... A "real" pistol...   leroy

Woogie Boogie...!   Smith airweight hammerless in a pocket holster... Right front pocket...   leroy

Wing...   I've got several shoulder holsters; Bianchi old time shoulder (...X18... i think...) and a real good military built by El Paso saddlery... Back in the long ago, used to carry a 1911 in the Bianchi... The problem with it wuz it just aint comfortable... I never could get mine adjusted to suit me... The pistola gets heavy and it is somewhat of an aggravation down towards the end of the day... If you are barrel chested, or have short arms; a bianchi aint as easy to reach for as you might think... I've never tried the newer "balanced" type shoulder rigs that have the pistola on one side and the mags or speed loader on the other... My suspicion is that they are a bit more comfortable for a small pistola; not a large one like the Glock 20....Weight is weight no matter where it's hung... Now to the military by El Paso... They work like a charm.. I like 'em a lot... They work very well sittin down or riding, because they are in the right place for ya ta get your hands on... The problem... Mine wuz $100 plus a bunch of years ago (...i'm an El Paso Saddlery "junkie"...)...   Havin said all that,; here is a bunch i really like.... http://clarkforkleather.com/leather-chest-holster/   I intend to order one of these shortly for my Glock cannon... I like 'em lots... I believe they will be lots more comfortable... I can't see givin $175 plus for the same thing from some of the "more well known makers"...   Hope this helps....   leroy

Wing... Both mine still have the stock recoil spring in 'em... I'm kinda like you... Probably need ta look at a bit heavier one... I like the idea of a rifled barrel to shoot hard cast linotype loads out of... Would like to try some 200 grain truncated flat noses in them; and load 'em pretty heavy... I'm kinda thinkin about a Storm Lake barrel; they are brother Tennesseeans right here in East Tennessee... http://www.storm-lake.com/ ... My guess is that their aint a nickel's worth of difference between any of them... They all work very well...   leroy

Wing... I got his brother plus a gen 3... The gen 3 has "Big Dot's" on it... i really like them... Order ya some Underwood ammo... I like the 180 to 200 grain stuff....   leroy

Sometimes brutality and corporal punishment is the answer...!!   leroy

Thanks for posting this...I think it's hilarious that this demorat son of satan has had to back-track... I loathe and despise Terry McAluffe... He symbolizes all that is wrong with politics and the overbearing "we're so right" class of liberal trash.... I think it's great that the citizens of VA were heard loud enough by the state legislature to over-run this sickening piece of Northern Virginia trash... The people of VA deserve better than McAluffe... Maybe they are wizin up a bit...   Here's hopin... despisin leroy
