I wonder if they are going to be at the Kingsport show this coming weekend....

Sorry Mike...im not explaining it the way I need to, to make you understand.... I'll try it again...these guns fire .22 blanks....the blank drives a "rod" that hits the nail and drives it into whatever you have the barrel pressed against. The "rod" broke in half because it didnt have anything to push. the shoulder of the "rod" stopped the forward motion of the "rod", not the nail/material. Wait....maybe I'm not the one understanding....maybe you are correct....hell...now I'm confused....it's toooooo late and I've had tooooo many beers to think about it....

I should have clarified....my bad. The rod/bolt/driver(whatever you call it) completely broke in two pieces because it had nothing to "drive". My point was not breaking the firing pin...my point was that the metal "driver" broke, because it had nothing to push.

I've been told that dry firing doesn't hurt a gun....i am skeptical, For a couple of reasons..... 1. I've been in the construction business for about 20 years...ALL nail guns have a specific warning about "dry-firing". I have seen these guns break because of dry firing. I personally broke 2 .22 fired masonry nailers by dry firing them. 2. Crossbows and Compound bows, these will break when dry fired, so i am told. Seems that metal doesnt like to stop abruptly without striking something besides air.... maybe its just me...but i dont like to dry fire anything....

You didnt ask about this one....but....its my EDC....Taurus PT145....bought new and eats everything I've fed it.

Taking a page from the Knoxville guys.....anybody want to meet up for breakfast or lunch? Or meet up at the show?

Any TGO'ers goin to the show @ meadowview this weekend?

Thanks jamie....i wasn't sure if i "articulated" THAT correctly...

tmck, Has anyone ever shown her the "proper" way to pull the slide back? My wife had trouble with nearly all auto's until Mark@Sea showed us BOTH how to do it. Push away with the hand the gun is in(preferably strong hand)...not pulling with weak hand..... I hope that makes sense....

Exactly!

Sgt. Joe...I (personally) was speaking in TODAYS terms...as in...go to Indy and get Peyton(TODAY) and suit him up....if you think there is a better QB in the world(TODAY)....you are sadly mistaken.....

LMAO...true...very true....i digress(sp*)

If we have another East EastTN shoot...mom is more than welcome to shoot the wifes P238...it is a sweet little pistol!

I wanna know about the "order taking" also...i have a few that I need.....

I agree....the bleeding hearts will make this a joke...but...like mosinon said...peyton manning could not have won this game for Texas....they dont deserve to even be in this game....

I agree Mike...and it's kind of like Rock Island bashing(like i did you) before I shot yours.... Shooting your RI changed my thinking...completely....damn nice piece!

Pathetic try????? coming from someone who has never shot one i ASSume....

My opinion....DON'T go outside with your weapon. If the perps come inside....fair game, as long as you are in fear of life or limb.

I like it now, damn nice little piece. I'll like it even more when the wife STARTS carrying it daily.

I dont think it has been released yet...when it is...I want some.

Im kind of like the other guys....my recipe is in my head....

+1 on Zero bullets...im about halfway through a 500 box of 230g .45's. Zero problems with Zero bullets:)....so far.

+1 i have used Golden sabers also, very reliable. I also have no FTF or FTE using WWB hollow points.
