  1. He's just preparing for Sharknado 4.
  2. I was a little reluctant to go the AR route myself. But after shooting a few in 9, I was hooked. I love the PSA model. At roughly 1000 retail, it's not cheap, but I don't regret selling a pistol or 2 and getting one. As I've said before, the only possible drawback to them, so far, is the lack of the last round bolt hold open feature.
  3. Dang I miss my WASR!
  4. I've been laughed at for it in the past, but they've gotten really, really popular of late. My favorite so far is the PSA Hybrid 9 that uses Glock mags. I've yet to have any issues with it and approaching 1000 rounds thru it. No it doesn't have a BHO, but that's not stopped my enjoyment yet. My next move on one is to sbr an 8.5 inch upper and add a can. I'm incorrigible. Sadly, the money is stopping me.
  5. An new friend of mine has a Gen 1 he's SBR'ing. Got all his parts and sent paperwork in this week. He's having fits to assemble that puppy!
  6. If you want it screwed up beyond all recognition...sure. Actually, I have yet to do a total build. Everything I have has been just upper and lower mating. And I haven't yet fouled it up. I haven't done anything like over 75 yards with a rifle, but in the back of my pointy little head there's the urge to try something longer range.
  7. Not any more. Sam and Tad got hold of it.
  8. Very nice rifle. I tend to gravitate towards carbine length, but thinking my next AR will be a 20+. But what do I know, I'm still into AR9. lol
  9. I wish I could thank my for all those things and more. They were far smarter than I'll ever hope to be. But they're gone now. I waited too long to them.
  10. We are in total agreement on this. I have about all I think I'll reasonably need in my lifetime, but it is still disheartening to see all the PC BS that has intruded into all aspects of our lives now. Retailers are getting pressured by public opinion polls, people supposedly representing "large numbers" of concerned citizens, and of course the thumb twisting in the board rooms by the feds. It is exasperating.
  11. May God grant peace and comfort to the family of Captain Kuss and to his military family as well. Amen.
  12. Yes...I would probably just have to buy a 45 Shield. With all its pros and cons, I still think the Shield pistols have been some of the best non 1911 pistols I have ever owned, And I have 3 now. Including a PC version. Don't ask...it's a long story.
  13. Still working towards it David. lol I just left the site and did a few things. Clicked my fav links to get back here without any problems. So rest easy...you don't seem to be at fault. Thanks.
  14. I have a new quirk. My screen locked up as I was away for a while. I attribute this to Windows 10. It's been crazy for the last 2 weeks. But when I restarted and tried to log in again, I had the dreaded password reset notice again. So I did. Using the same one as before. Think it's W10? Or will I have to go thru the password reset each time? I think I'll closed down and see what happens.
  15. Well...the old geezer is here too! The form is quite similar to another gun forum I stroll through occasionally, so it isn't too bad for this old guy. Yet.
  16. Just opened the box. Damn! What a knife!   Had to look at the instructions again to first open it. But then...   Man does it open Fast and Smooth!   And then I see KahrMan's Damascus Blade. That is just gorgeous. Rivals any in my very small collection.   Thanks willis!
  17. KharMan...I really hate you!!!! That is such a pretty blade! I just couldn't swing it. So I must envy yours.
  18. It is sure a tempting offer. I've bought a few items recently, and this is getting better and better for the buyers.   Unless like me...the funds aren't there.

    Yes. A very sweet piece!
  20. Sadly, my friend, I agree with you.   The uncle, whether he once had legal custody or not, has a strange look about him. I know, I shouldn't judge upon appearances, but I was a little freaked by him.
  21. Congratulations to you both. Sometimes the long wait is for the best.
  22. Congrats on the new shooter!
  23. Yeah, got a good rate, but 3.4 miles away. Not really within my walking abilities at the moment.
  24. Thank you, David. The post was half in jest. But having a pro make suggestions is always great. 
  25. I agree. Now if I just knew what that was.
