  1. I like it clean and pristine, like my guns,lol. I have three houses on the same road.
  2. Thanks alot all. I tried to prep my mind for this. I mow 8 acres yard. My biggest problem is, my type A Personality. I have purchased four pistols since Jan. I just look and drool. The revolver is a great idea and a good reason to get one.
  3. If there are any of you out there that have went through shoulder surgery, maybe you can offer a little advice for me. I'm 9 weeks into a major one, 3 torn rotator cuff tendons, one detached bicep tendon, 1 bone spur, 2 Bursa sacs removed and a shredded bicep muscle reattached. On my shooting arm. I ordered a couple new left-handed holsters. But I have to learn to shoot left-handed. And I'm anxious. Maybe, another way to chamber a pistol with one hand. Right now I can't even get the orange plug out of the pistol to chamber a bullet.(new evo),(45 ultra carry). I asked my physical therapist when I will be able to pull the slide back on my a micro 9, he won't give me any kind of answer, he has never held a gun. This is in Cleveland OH, but he's also 30 years old. Just wondering if any of you out there have had shoulder surgery and what kind of timeframe they were able to start shooting? As in being able to chamber a bullet, to being able to shoot a long gun. Let's say like a .308 Winchester.

    Sorry about that I guess I don't know how to upload pictures yet.

    Kimber EVO

    Ye ha! Picked it up today. Not a real good pic. I don't have the strength yet, to pull the slide back to get the plug out. About another 3 months.
  6. When liquidating, do your research! Knowledge is power, you will be ready to deal. I look at gold and silver, as a bartering tool. With all the hacking, old infrastructure and terror. You never know when the grid might go down.

    LMT AR-10

    I would like to sight mine in at about 800 yards. I'm looking forward to the illuminated retinal optics. My range is only good for about 250 yards. When I get recovered from my surgery, I plan on shooting once a week.
  8. I really wanted to post on this, but I was afraid the drooling would mess up my keyboard. That's pretty. Congratulations.

    LMT AR-10

    Bought one four years ago. Never shot it. The most beautiful long black, I ever seen, with leopold mark 4. Is there anyone out there have one, shot one, like it, dislike it?
  10. Myself, I hope they can dig far enough that they find a bunch of political senators and representatives that have done the same thing. Bought and paid for, how would you like to have surgery from one of those fine students?
  11. I'm new, I'm sorry, I pray for a speedy recovery. May God watch over all of you.

    LMT

    Never mind, I'm new, I posted the wrong place.
  13. I have one Glock model 17, I bought it in 1985, sent it down to Georgia and had a 2 lb trigger pull put on it and tritium sights. Out of all my Pistols that is my favorite one to shoot. I can do tac tacs within 2". I don't know how much truth there is to this. But when I bought this pistol, I was told that the person that invented the Glock, dropped it out of an airplane and it shot fine. To be able to sell his idea, that was the durability test. Has anyone ever heard of that story before? Definitely not the gun for the inexperienced. There's only one safety on the whole gun and that's on the trigger. Especially when you have a 2 lb trigger pull.
  14. I love it. My next gun! Do they make scope rails for that? I don't mean to seem a litter at about the contender, I live two miles away from the fin feather fur. It's kind of like a Gander Mountain. That's where I bought my first one. They don't sell them any more. Have to drive 30 miles to get one.
  15. I'm usually a hard guy to impress. I am extremely impressed, and thankful for that information. I think I might have spoke out of line, because I seen some 308 barrels but it was a contender Pro hunter. And I'm sure that that's the newest and not interchangeable.
  16. The Kimber micro 9 mm is a beautiful gun, and I would love to carry it. But I got them as an investment to give to my grandsons some day. I'm concerned about the hammer snagging on my shirt or on a piece of clothing trying to get it out of my holster. The reason I worried about that, in martial arts training that I was taught about 36 years ago, if a person is within 21 feet from you, and they rush you, you don't have time to pull a pistol. So I would never want to take a risk on a snag, so I bought a evo striker, so there is nothing to snag and I know if it is cocked without being obvious. Just saying. Having a bar for 15 years I have seen some pretty crazy stuff about 3 feet away.
  17. Why did did they make them then? Just wandering.
  18. I love my micro 380. I like it so well that last month I purchased two micro 9 m m customs, to give my grandsons some day. Not even going to shoot them. I also got a striker 9mm for grandpa, with is in lay away. I trust Kimber that much.
  19. I could use a little help. I listed the Thompson Contender under handguns because that's what I shoot although they make nice rifles and shotguns as well. I bought my Thompson Contender in about 1985, stainless steel with a .22 bull barrel , also a .223 barrel. Now that all these years have gone by I would like to buy a .308 Pistol barrel but I can't follow the model numbers interchangeability . G1, G2, and the latest. Are they all interchangeable? I'm thinking not. Just trying to locate the right one to fit. Trouble will probably be in finding one.
  20. A nice back up for the ankle. Also for those that don't have the strength to chamber. The .380 sig is the only pistol my wife can chamber.

    If you go to the Kimber Webb site. Looks like someone put a thousand dimpals in it. Msrp 1,047 I think, I paid 990.00.

    Kimber EVO

    It's in lay away till Sunday. But I will send a pic. I want to add that my solo really did not experience the jamming until I started using the extended clip, and won't use it unless I just load 6. However the clip extension is a nice feature, when gripping. Extremely accurate. Shoots 115 grain all day, I also own a sports bar, so I carry all the time. Dependability is a must. Thanks for responding, just had major shoulder surgery, so I have time, I liked this site.

    I got the custom shop evo. Very pretty, I know it's awful expensive, but being a journeyman tool and die maker, I appreciate the great Machining that goes into a Kimber.

    Kimber EVO

    I'm new. Thought I would throw my two cents in. I've had a solo for about three years. I had a problem with it at first with a few jams. I called Kimber and I talked to him and I found out from them that I needed a fire at least 250 to 300 rounds through the gun. After doing that it has done a wonderful job. So as a striker fire I love it. So the new Striker fire Evo you should be a fine gun as well. I just put one in layaway yesterday and I'm excited about getting the chance to shoot it. Looking forward to reading some of the articles on this site. If I had one place in this country I would want to move it would be Tennessee.
