Is it really any surprise that the Chicago/Illinois liberal, anti-gunners seem to be at the head of the list?

Perhaps I've missed the info, but is the time and place definite yet?

Totally agree. From an old fart who doesn't need, use, or want facebook. I call or visit those I call friends.

My very heartfelt condolences for you and your family, Raoul. I still miss my lost companions as well. The love and friendship they give can't be understood by those who don't love them, but they give us the closest thing to God's unconditional love that we'll find on this earth. Cherish the memories. I do believe you will meet again.

Congratulations on your first 1911. In al likelyhood, it won't be your last. I don't own a Para, but have shot several. They're nice guns. As DaveTN says, I too find that the 1911 is much more pleasurable to shoot than most of my other autoloaders.

A real neat looking package. I'd probably bite on a production version if the price was acceptable.

Il Duce, fyi, Beowulf50 is unavailable until Monday, June 20. Probably late in the day would be best.

I agree about the spreading. I have a steep upward slope beside my house that usually has some on the lower edge of the bank. This year it seems to have tripled or quadrupled in area. I can't even mow or trim near it without breaking out. Luckily for me, an old co-worker has a lawn service and he cuts it for me. The first year we moved here, I cut that bank in short and t-shirt. Right, very stupid. I was covered from head to ankles and miserable for about two weeks. Could barely wear clothes, and as with your experiences; it took steriod shots and oral prednisone to clear it up. My therory, at least for my area, is that last years' flooding spread the viness all over my hillside.

Have shot Privi ammo is several different calibers without issue. No feeding problems, cases seem very good quality, and some do seem to be maybe a little hot-loaded; but again, no problems for me. And all that I've purchased has been pretty resonably priced, even back when the 380 was so high and in demand.

Sure is. All those other things that require payment first really put a cramp in the gun budget.

Congrats on the Ruger purchase. We agree that the problem isn't just finding a particular gun, but finding it at the price you ar willing to pay. I find lots of guns I'd like, but money does have to enter into the equation at some point.

If this follows the norrmal pattern of addiction...this won't be your last. Congratulations on the purchase.

A wonderful attitude to have. I only wish I could see evidence that other parents were trying to instill some type of morals and values into their children. But unfortunately today, no matter where you look, a large portion of the kids are wild, disrespectful, profane and just downright obnoxious. So it's very refreshing to hear your take on this as it does offer hope for some of the kids.

Me too. But I actually was reminded of Phil Valentine's Union Thugs, and thougt it might be similar to that.

Not exactly a top 40 hit, but a great song.

Yes, but I'm a little odd. I prefer a swing-out cyclinder for reloads. Just really never got used to emptying and loading one cyclinder at a time. Not dissing the Ruger at all, it's a fine gun, just not my personal favorite.

I don't think so. The Nashville show was Bill Goodman Shows and the Murfreesboro is from RK Productions i believe.

1209 Park, if memory serves. I'm thinking of going. Haven't been there in a while. Might try to trade or sell off a pistol.

Would like a good, nice looking 22/22wmr revolver. Just not sure this is it. I have to agree with LngRngShtr though, it's hard to beat a Smith 617. But too many other toys in line ahead to spend the normal asking prices I see on the 617's offerred for sale lately.

This weekend, Saturday and Sunday, June 18/19. Google gun shows for lists. 1209 Park Avenue.

Really? Then that's a plus for Goodman shows.

Add Nationwide Insurance commercials to the list.

Best thing in it was when his 1000000 lumen light fell off and the daylight shut off.

Boomstick is correct. Drove thru Hermitage just a few minutes ago heading to my vet and looked over to check the name for you. But you already knew that.

Personal opinion. Probably another part of our mayor's plan to destroy any and all parts of the fairground operations so he can sell off the property and make money for he and his friends.
