  1. Great. Now get a move on and get it into production. I'd sure like to sit in my back yard and not be swarmed by the nasty little buggers all the time.
  2. As an option, if you do need work on it later, try John Wall at Eastside Gun Shop. Just off Gallatin Road in East Nashville.
  3. Sorry about the format. Post didn't load as expected, and this (above) is what finally came up. But I think it is readable and hopefully understandable. I sure hope it is, as I really didn't have the patience to tr and post it for a third time.
  4. Just finished William Fortshen's One Second After. Yes. took me a while to get around to it. I've read almost all the post apocolyptic books and series that have been written since the early 70's. From Jerry Ahern's Surivalist to Willam J. Johnstone's Ashes series, as well as a lot of individual books. Most were enjoyable, time passing diversions full of guns, babes, knives, guns, blood, etc. Some a little graphic, some funny, and even downfight crude.<BR><BR>But this book was really the first to give me shivers and make me tear up. A very chilling story. And even though I knew details of the book, knew just what EMP is, and have enough knowledge to understand empirically how very vunerable we as a people and a nation are; it is still absolutely one of the most frightenly chilling pieces of "fiction" I believe I've ever read.<BR><BR>The Road was depressing and frightful. One of the most so since On The Beach. But I believe this surpasses them both.<BR>

  6. Amen to all comments, brothers.
  7. But a short barrel is better than no barrel at all.
  8. Hey! I resemble that remark!

    Errors

    All the above, and slow respones as well.
  10. I've always liked them, but rarely owned one. However, several years ago, I picked up a Japanese Browning 44 Mag that's beautiful. And I'm ashamed to say that it's still in my safe, absolutely unfired, by me.
  11. Welcome. Just be advised; talking to anyone on here can be dangerous to your health and wallet.
  12. AR style shotgun. AR style SBS. Supposedly AR reliability. How many will sell? Probably all that are imported. I think one would be for me as well.
  13. Where did you see this? I've been looking for a shooter Model 15 to go with my other C/M in 22 mag.
  14. I was getting excited by the car...

    Ruger 77/357

    Makes perfect sense to me.
  16. That would really be great! What do you think the odds are of it being reasonably priced though?
  17. Don't even think about posting a 3 Wolf picture.. or I might be forced to bring back the Kentucky Conan to ward off the wolves.
  18. Good trade. But personally, I'd rather have the BDM. Nothing at all against the Beretta 92, but I just can't really like it size-wise. And yes, I do still own 2 Beretta pistols--a Desert Storm Commemorative and a 92/96 Combo Pak. And the BDM, of course.
  19. Thanks for the pic, Caster. Reminds me of the fact that I loved the Marvel Comics series on the Infinity Gauntlet. Have to see if I can find them agiain. I lost so many in the flooding last year I really haven't been into them in a long time. Sorry, off track with that.
  20. Is that wood furniture or an application to the plastic? In any event, yes, it's a winner.

    Ruger 77/357

    Solution. Send me the SP101, then you won't have to be worried about needing a matching rifle.
  22. Wait a minute, I only saw two plastic parts on her. There's more?
  23. I wonder. Since we're speculating here...Does premeditated require that the victim be known to the attacker? What if he just decides to go out and kill for the thrill/high/rush/whatever? He's just decided to kill someone and choose in some random manner. But the act of murder is still premeditated, isn't it? At least if it could be shown and proven that he/she had the intent to kill. Would that be so?
