I enjoy carving and tooling leather, but I'm just not very artistic.

Looks good to me! I found this tutorial very handy when making a mexican loop holster. http://leatherworker.net/SimmonsHolster.pdf

$100-UNLIMITED. It depends on your definition of being "set up." I've been reloading for 30 years, and I'm still adding suff.

Most of us have a big box full of holsters. You probably will one day as well. Some work well in a lot of situations, some work well in a few situations, and some just didn't work out at all.

Your thought seems to have merit. There certainly isn't much room downward for interest rates to go. Doesn't high interest rates usually come with inflation, or vice versa?

Inflation concerns are the only thing I can come up with. What do you think? Are we recovering?

If the government continues to print money at the current rate, you won't believe what things will cost in a year or two from now.

That rear sight is way on out there, isn't it? I didn't notice that the first time.

I usually just load my own on a rainy day like this. You can pick up powder and primers at the local gun store, or at a show. Brass and bullets can be had very cheaply if you have patience and watch the classified ads on forums like this. Sometimes people even send you free reloading supplies! I've got a pretty goos supply of most everything at the moment, but I'm always on the lookout for a deal.

New Krieghoff Rifles $5000 is cheaper than I expected, but still I think I'll pass.

Very, very nice!!!

I remember it being reported that Bill Clinton was our first "black president". http://ontology.buffalo.edu/smith/clinton/morrison.html

Because these aren't rights!!! These people are free to purchase the healthcare, food, or whatever you think they need. Many of them would prefer to spend their income on beer, cigarettes, or ilicit drugs. I'll give you an example. You stated that you own two guns. Why should you have two guns when there are people out there who don't have a gun at all. Would it be fair to confiscate one of them from you and give it to someone else? Same difference.

SO where do you draw the line? Should everyone have a new car? How big a house? A cell phone? Diamonds? You have the opportunity to do things for yourself. You aren't owed squat just because you are here and breathing. How about you take some of the time you spend hating and whining on the internet and try to improve yourself in such a way that you'd be in higher demand in the workplace?

I had one from Heritage Arms and loved it. They are very inexpensive, accurate, and smooth. I don't care for the safety on them, but for the price I can overlook it.

Hollow base bullets are designed for the pressure caused by the burning powder to swell the bullet base, causing it to obturate and fit into whatever size bore it goes down, within reason of course. This creats a seal where gas can't pass the bullet in the bore, causing accuracy problems. I don't think the flat base is designed to do this, and is less forgiving as it pertains to bullet size verses bore size.

You are invited to my home. I'll show you the American dream; at least my interpretation of it. my wife and I have been willing to do what most others wouldn't for many years to obtain it, but it's ours. It did NOT come from 40 apethetic hours a week from some company who we thought owed us something.

Whatever it takes to provide what I want my family to have. I t will be different for me than it is for you. My labor is worth what the market will bear; not some arbitrary figure you dreamed up. As far as housing costs, when we married, I found a gentleman who allowed us to live in an old house he had. In leiu of rent, I provided farm labor and we provided meals for the owner. While this was going on, we were saving for our own home. We did what it took to get what we wanted; all without a government program or regulation. 40 hours a week is something you've dreamed up on your own. It is worth nothing in and of itsself. What you do with that time is where the value comes into play. As far as helathcare goes, I looked at the price of private insurance and decided to seek employment that included healthcare insurance. This wasn't owed to me. I didn't deserve it. It was part of the compensation package of the job I agreed to. I beg you to rethink this entitlement attitude you have.

Where do you get this? This is an arbitrary list you've concocted in your head. There is nothing in our constitution that guarantees you any of this. I'll give you a bit of advice: 40 hours a week is NOT working hard!!!

Chattanooga rocks! I imagine you'll enjoy your stay there.

+1 There's a lot to be learned from Leroy. He's been there and done that, and is kind enough to share his insight with us.

Herman Cain - Presidential Exploratory Committee Till I hear something different, I think I've found my candidate.

This is horse feces! A guy who shows up when he has nothing better to do, and pushes a button 8 hours a day isn't worth what a software developer or brain surgeon is. Look at teachers if you want a good example of income equality. A good teacher is hard to come by, and in my opinion, worth six figures. In our current system, they make the same as a more common, useless sorry teacher; the exact same money! Which is more valuable? If you want more income, make yourself more valuable. Don't try to vote yourself more money. I've worked hard for many years to get where I am. I could do different things to make more money. I have that ablilty. I am happy where I am, and value my spare time to spend with my children more than the extra money I could be earning. I do not begrudge people who chose differently. It's easy to blame others for your shortcomings. It's more difficult to overcome them.
