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

  This is a great truth... The "inner city" population are gonna have to clean up their own messes... I stay away from these "problem areas" and i would advise everyone else to as well... Arm yourselves just in case they go to roamin a bit; and they do...   Non carin leroy....

Fee grabbin... It's about the money no matter what the clownish Knoxville Chief of police says... The best way to get even with the city of knoxville is to stay out of it... I drive the speed limit where ever i go in knoxville and most everywhere else... It saves lots of problems...   leroy

The "moonshine-Mountain Dew" thing is interestin.... I'm like some other brother and sister posters here...?  There could be some charges commin from this...   leroy

It must be a moon phase thing... Need to check the almanac....   ...Toyota v6's underpowered...?  Interestin... All of mine must have been defective... They all run very well... Tacoma Twin Cab Pre-Runner and ...FJ's included...   ....FJ aint an off road vehicle...?  Interestin too... Mine is... And ive got a 99 Wrangler with a 3 inch lift and an inline 4.0...   https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=T1LNIHi9Xrg   Wonderin leroy....

Pretty rowdy bunch i would say.... There has to be more to this than what is in this article...   leroy

We've loaded some hard cast lead with 4.1 to 4.3 grains of Unique... They shoot very well thru the Sig 238... Check here... http://handloads.com/loaddata/default.asp?Caliber=380%20ACP&Weight=All&type=Handgun&Order=Powder&Source=   leroy

Find yourself an older, lovingly cared for jeep wrangler with a hard top and ac..Install the gizmos on it ya like;for creature comfort and fun (...insulation in the top... Loud radio...other stuff...) as ya got the time and extra cash.. . After drivin it a while and goin thru a few slick spots; you won't want any of these other "mini SUV/AWV" gizmos anymore...  I've never been without one...    all wheel leroy... the jeep affectionado...

This is grandstandin pure and simple... It's nothin more than shameless panderin to these single mothers who cant believe their little boys can grow up and turn in murderin, rapin, pillagin monsters... Guns aint the problem; absentee fathers, no fathers, and a matriarchial society that chooses to not to address the real problems are...    leroy

  Enfield... What Ropin said above has been exactly my experience withe the sig 238... I carry mine in the front pocket in an old roughout D>M. Bullard pocket holster... The sig is well made and the safety detent is solid... In my opinion; ya simply cant buy a better external hammer 380 than a sig... Havin said all that, i could go for a hammerless S&W pretty quickly... I like 'em.... By the way... This is the holster i use... Mine is a roughout... http://store.dmbullardleather.com/catalog/product/2720d3077c3d4b8da17a2c2e2bd05e33   Hope this helps... leroy

  It's apples and oranges man... Sorry... -- cant buy that one... leroy

It don't matter...  A good arguement is a good arguement; regardless of the purpose for which it's used... You don't discard a particular line of thinkin just because it was used to make some case that is either morally wrong or one you don't happen to like...   leroy

If the thing we're discussing is finally made law and challenged... I predict this is the argument that will be used... Ken did some very good thinkin here... leroy Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

What we've got here is a circular firing squad, along with circular reasoning, along with a dose of runnin off into a bunch of pasture fields that dont matter...   The fact is that the government (...local, state, and federal...) has seen fit to meddle in "property rights" for those engaged in public commerce... Whether anybody likes it or not, for better or worse, no one has changed that as yet...   If you are the proprietor of a business that serves public customers, the gubmt tells you lots of things and makes em stick with the force of law...   The gubmt tells you to have certain food standards (...if you are a resturant..), to have a certain size parking lot, to have restrooms meeting certain standards, defines insurance requirements, personnel requirements, fire code requirements; the list is endless... Friends, that is, in fact, gubmt meddlin and injecting requirements into your "public business"... The fact is that the gubmt in in the "business of regulating business"...   If the gubmt can demand that you be liable for some poor hapless soul (...your customer...) stepping on a wet noodle and breaking his butt and make it stick (...and they can... that's why you have insurance; which is mandated by gubmt...); what is the difference in it tellin you that you are responsible for the safety of your patrons should they be hurt as the result of your demand to take responsibility to disarm them and make them vulnerable to mayhem...?  We can quibble about whether gubmt should be meddlin in this or not; but the fact remains... They are and have been for a long time...    I will grant that you can either be a "king in your castle" or a "tyrant"  (...my words and definition..."do what i say or else...) in your own home... Your home aint a public place... As others have pointed out; if you engage in a public business, the rules change... You may not like that; but that's how it works now; no matter the argument about "property rights" trumping everything else...   I say, if you want the "meddlin in business thing" to change, start workin on your elected reps and get to changin 'em... Good luck.... I predict that you'll need it...   leroy

With all due respect... You ain't pro liberty, bro... You are pro "...im the boss here and you will do what i say..." That aint liberty; that's tyranny... One person demanding that another do what he says or else...   That's ok; but with all that comes all them other responsibilities if you are in a business that is open to the public... Ya can't have it both ways... One "right" doesn't trump another "right"... They gotta be balanced unless you are a private citizen and i'm commin into your private residence or compound as an invited guest (...which i aint gonna do if you don't trust me with a firearm...)...   This proposal is a sensible attempt to balance the "right to self defense with a deadly weapon" against "property rights" in businesses open to the public; and i think it's high time some smart guy came up with this...Your mileage may vary...   leroy

The examples may be a bit ignorant; but the message aint... In english:..."...If you decide to disarm someone commin in to your business, you, the business owner, are responsible if i need protection from bad things and bad guys that a gun provides..."... I've been waitin for this one to come up... I think it will settle the "Property Rights" vs "Second Amendment self defence" thing pretty quickly... It's a concept whose time has come...   watchin leroy...

Mac... They are, indeed, very beautiful... Satin finish beautiful wood, rosewood fore end cap (...i think...)... The prettiest gun in the gun case; and that includes a couple of first issue Ruger #1's.... The only thing i think would be better is the old style mauser claw extractor rifles...   Havin said all that, Chris has a great idea... The double rifle is where it's at... The ultimate bawanna rifle... My checkbook just wont stand the strain of one; and im too old ta use it now...   leroy

Mac....    I've got an older Remington 700 Safari in 375... It is a beautiful thing to behold... When i was younger, we would shoot it prone with a sissy bag... At 60 yards it would cut a 3 shot cloverleaf if you did your part holdin it (...we used the old "hourglass" targets and aimed at the points...) with iron sights... I never had any factory loads for it... We always used the accuracy load from the Lyman Manual with Sierra either 270 or 300 grain spitzer boat tails... I believe we used IMR 4350 for the powder... Right here is the latest copy on the bullets we used... https://www.sierrabullets.com/store/product.cfm/sn/3000/375-dia-300-gr-SBT   To sum things up; they are a great rifle with a helluva punch and remarkably accurate...   I heartily recommend 'em...   bawanna leroy...

I'll join the "Bob" chorus as well... I've known Bob a long time... He is an excellent gunsmith and very proficient in workin on Smiths... I've used hime a bunch of time... Where ever he is; he will be an asset to those he is working for and with.. I heartily recommend him...    leroy

tercel... I wear 'em all the time, and i use suspender buttons too... The best of the best suspenders are made by Fred Welch... Here is the link... http://www.welchsuspenders.com/ ... These are, in fact, "the best of the best" ...period... I discovered 'em 40 or so years ago when some of my buddies went and worked in the log woods of the pacific northwest... They are the standard of the log woods; and have been for years...   I like the "Y" backs with the 2 inch wide elastic... Easy on your shoulders and will hold anything up... Most of mine come from David Morgan... He also sells "bachelor buttons"... They are the buttons that ya have to button the waist of your carhartts and levis... Ya can install 'em with a hammer... Nothin to it... Here they are.. http://www.davidmorgan.com/product_info.php?products_id=32 ...   If ya want ta go all out with the logger dungarees, check here... Good deals on them as well...  http://www.baileysonline.com/Clothing/Men-s-Clothing/Jeans/Key/Key-Industries-48011-Relaxed-Fit-Denim-Logger-Dungarees.axd  I have also bought carhartt logger dungarees from sierra trading post...   Buy without hesitation... I've done business with all these folks... This stuff will hold your dungarees and everything else up...   leroy
