  1. Yeah I think the app would need the capability built into it. Lots of updates expected. To the OP, after seeing all the new stuff, iPhone 4 or bust!
  2. I'm so incredibly jealous. I always wanted one of these but just can't afford it. Can't wait for the pics!
  3. I would love to do more for the city first but I actually think it would be easier (looking at districts lines) to run for the House first. I call myself a moderate but I lean further right than left. I have never and probably will never declare myself part of one party. I figure if I look forward to 2012, I have plenty of time to get out and start meeting more people in my district and talking to them and campaigning for myself ahead of time.
  4. Indeed sir. Merely a poem, turned into an anthem. And yet way too many know nothing about it. Very sad.
  5. Anyone have experience with their suppressors? Anyone know of a shop in TN that carries them? I was reading through ARFCOM today and saw where he still has some of his original sealed design for sale for 125 each. Just curious. EDIT! Just saw where they have 5.56 cans for 175 as well.
  6. Seal Pup has been on my short list for a while.
  7. I'd go in on it if you wanted.
  8. I spent a lot of time over the course of the last two weeks watching both our state Senate and House debate, vote and operate and have become increasingly more interested in running. Possibly for a House seat. Obviously, it is a little late to run this year but I am very much a forward thinking individual. I was hoping that maybe someone here has run for some form of office and could provide some general ideas of what to expect. I also just wanted to see if anyone else had ever considered it and if so, why didn't you?
  9. Not trying to bust your balls but there are already two threads about it. This was the first. http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/general-off-topic/40920-top-shot.html This is where the most recent discussion is. http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/general-off-topic/41012-top-shot-tv.html
  10. I'm glad you posted this. I know that is Dennis the Menace but it reminded me of something. Clearly your generation was so much better grandpa. An extremely popular tv show highlighted beating your wife. LOVE IT!
  11. I take offense to that. I have not served and probably never will. I am 27 so by age alone I fit into this. Lazy? You can call me that but I get done what needs to be done and I do my fair share of physical activities. You want conversation? Sure! We can have one right now. What do you want to talk about? Slow moving and lethargic? Mumble when I speak? I actually (many years ago) ran track. I move just fine. Mumbling is not an option. I worked in radio for a long time and its pretty much impossible to have a good show and "mumble." I always look people in the eye and can't stand the limp handshake. I'm actually slightly disturbed by people that just hold their hand out there without grasping at all. I've been paying my own way since I was 16 years old and paid for half of my dad's truck and my parent's house. And I don't want anything from the government other than protection from outside threats. I do my own laundry. I cook my own food. I buy my own clothes, food, gas and pay my own bills. It's incredibly hard for me to have greasy hair since I have had a high and tight or shaved head since I was 7. I hate feet. I wear shoes and boots. I wear sandals around the house but never crocs, never flip flops and never out in public. I know what a liberal is but I am not one. I don't limit myself to any one party. Just like denominations in Christianity, all of them are doing something wrong and noone is perfect. Do your own research, form your own opinions and do what you feel is right. Want to take a map test? I'd be more that happy to. There are other points in your post but I would pretty much be addressing those the same way. How old are you? I can make gross generalizations about people your age as well and they would most likely be wrong. I am not the only one out there either. Most of my friends, and certainly all of my closest friends are the same as me. And that is a rather large group. And something that I have noticed over the years is that most of the problem with the younger generation comes from poor parenting. So maybe, grandpa, just maybe if you had raised your children better, their children wouldn't be such a disgrace.
  12. Someone else try it before I buy it. haha
  13. Very interested in the end result here. Subscribed!
  14. Probably not. It's pretty easy to do. I was unaware that there was a spring in there. If you remove the right side grip panel and push on the mag catch, the mag catch will pop out. When it does, the spring shoots the retainer off and the spring goes flying. I was able to find it the first time but lost it when trying to put it back together. I still think I can find it but its going to take some time and I was getting impatient yesterday.
  15. So I recently acquired a mosquito. As I do everything, I took it apart to check out the inner workings. In doing so, I shot a spring across the room and cannot for the life of me find the dad gummed thing. So I called Sig this morning. He asked me how old the gun was and I told him that I didn't know and that I just got it and told him exactly what I just posted. He chuckled and said no problem. He is sending me out a spring free of charge and said I should have it in 7-10 days. I just had to post cause I think that's friggin awesome. Other than the hold time on the phone, that's top notch service in my book.
  16. Don't currently have one but will need one soon. Still working on a trip to Australia. Saving and planning is taking forever.
  17. Yeah the survivor thing sucks. But shooting their name is awesome. Notes from last night. 30 shots or more and can't hit a rather large target at 100 yards? You probably shouldn't have been on the show in the first place. And I agree that people taking up for him on reputation was garbage. 22 year old can shoot. I didn't think shooting the smily face was cocky. Its his discipline. He got familiar with the gun and had some fun. Isn't that why most of us shoot? Cause its fun? The lone woman probably won't last long. Its usually not a good sign when you can't find the target through a spotting scope.
  18. I will vote 10/22 every time. Everyone makes a big deal about them not being accurate out of the box but I would have to disagree. Mine is a 1974 model that was bought new by my dad. Until about 6 months ago, it was bone stock and probably hadn't been cleaned in 15 years. Now it has a new style mag release and a volquartsen exact edge extractor. neither of them were necessary but I like to tinker. The rifle shoots as well as I do or better. You just can't go wrong with the 10/22
  19. 61-30 PASSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  20. By the way, what is everyone doing while watching? I'm now working on refinishing my Garand stock.
  21. Curry Todd = Collierville (burb of Memphis) And after this speech, he is getting a thankful email from me!
  22. its very simple. if you are concerned about your rights, do not break the law.
