The Marine Corps has a fine rifle training class. :usa:  :rock:

This man is insane. Hates America. Hates guns. Loves Mohamed.     http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2091786/Liam-Neeson-considers-converting-Islam-following-trip-Istanbul.html

 Dubai? Really? Americans who own guns are a disgrace yet the corruption and human rights violations (slavery for one) in Dubai, that's OK?  I goes like this: There is a construction boom in Dubai. They get poor Asians to come over with the promise of high wages. When they get their they find out they are basically working for enough food to keep working. When they try to leave, their passports are held by the construction company so they are forced to work until the job is finished.......slaves.   I'll keep my gun and will be a slave to no one. I will never give Liam Neeson another dime of my money.

One word. Mayonnaise !  Thanks France. No Southerner would eat a Tomato Sandwich without it.

I'm a little old for that. This is what I had.

There is one word you will never, EVER, hear Obama say and that is "Liberty".  I'm all for it. If you have earned the right to own and carry a firearm you should not be hindered. Our Constitution and Bill of Rights is one of the greatest documents ever written in the history of mankind.  The men who wrote it were a lot smarter than anyone gives them credit for. Just read some of the things they wrote. Brilliant!

      I wish I had a dollar for every time someone complained about a plastic mainspring housing. There is absolutely nothing wrong with a plastic mainspring housing. It there were then Colt and Kimber would not use them.

If it is in the original box and is in real good condition then $450 is a premium price. The model 10 is a classic handgun but they made a lot of them. If you are going to buy it as an investment, the price is too high. If you are going to shoot it, then you will put so much money in ammo through it that the price makes little difference.  I can shoot $100 worth of ammo easy in one range session. I have shot more money in ammo through my model 36 3", than I paid for the gun.

The sound is better coming off a quality turntable. Back in the 70s, it was all about sound quality, with big speakers, big amps, vacuum tubes. People are starting to realize that there is more to just owning a little "light" box with every song ever made on it, listened to with cheap poorly made speakers. I recently gave my son all of my LPs like: Beetles White Album, Lynard Skynard, George Thorogood and the Delaware Destroyers, The Pretenders Learning to Crawl, Doc Watson's best off album, The Steve Miller Band, Leo Kottke, Brain Salad Surgery  The Cars Fleetwood Mac Stan Lee Jordan. Blue Oyster Cult.

Thanks for the replies guys. I think I'll tell her that tonight, everyone in the world gets the best gift ever. Tonight our savior is born. Merry Christmas!

   What do you say to that? 

When I went into the theater I was sure this movie would suck. I was wrong. It was a great non stop action film. It finished up the series nicely. The first movie was kind of slow. The second movie had that ridiculous scene inside the mountain where mighty Smaug was chasing the tiny little dwarves around but just couldn't seem to catch them. It was like a Tom and Jerry cartoon. The "Five Armies" showed Smaug as one badass dragon. Of course I could write a long list of how the movie strayed from the book. The tallest giant of an Orc was nearly as tall as a man, according to Tolkien. But this is Peter Jackson's movie.

I think the Cubans are ready to buy some new cars.

There is nothing like a good book. The kind made from paper and ink. 

When did people start sticking objects inside the trigger guard of a handgun before they photograph it? Why do they do that?  I think the reason people do it is because they see other people doing it and they think it's "the hip way" to take a picture.

I have seen the USS North Carolina on display in Wilmington NC. It was the first Battleship to enter Pearl Harbor after the attack, brand spankin' new. The harbor was a wreck, full of oil and sunken ships. Thousands of men were working to get the harbor cleaned up. They all stopped to cheer the North Carolina. She was a fast ship, going in harms way. During the Guadalcanal Campaign she fell victim to the deadliest spread of Torpedoes every fired from a submarine. Six torpedoes were fired from the IJN submarine I-19. Three hit the USS Wasp and sunk her. The three that missed traveled over two miles where they broke the USS O'Brian in half and put a 20 foot round hole in the USS North Carolina. The "Showboat" never broke speed and shook off the hit like a champ.

Babyface Nelson, was shot seven times in the torso with 45acp from a Thompson sub-machine gun and was shot with 00 buckshot, eleven pellets in the legs. He still gunned down two FBI agents, got into a car, told his girl friend "I'm done," I was driven away where he later died in bed. 

  Our Navy is the undisputed ruler of the oceans and the seven seas.  No one else comes close. No other country is willing to dispute that nor do they have the assets to challenge it. Those Tube Jockeys can be anywhere and nobody knows it. The silent service............

I was never in the military. My reward for not being in, was not having to be in the military. That's all I get.  When all you soldiers, sailors and Marines are honored, I stand aside. I don't deserve that honor.

I have read The Hobbit many times. This will be the last Tolkien movie. I will be there.  I do not like 3D movies. I prefer to have the entire screen in focus. With 3D the background is often blurry. I grew up going to movies. I feel comfortable in the theater, especially now that I can concealed carry in them.

   My Taurus model 85 ultra light had problems out of the box. The cylinder was not machined well. One chamber locked up well, two chambers were a little sloppy and two chambers were real sloppy. The gun fired OK for 200 rounds or so, then one day the cylinder locked up so tight I had to use a wooden mallet to get it open. I tried it again with different ammo and it locked up again. I sent it back to Taurus and they kept it for 5 months, then they sent it back saying that there wasn't anything wrong with the gun. I shot it 11 more times when it jammed again. I freed it up and polished it up and sold it, I told the buyer of all the problems.   I know people who swear by Taurus revolvers. A couple of years ago the CEO of Taurus pledged to have better quality control. Since they have a lifetime warranty, they didn't need any quality control, they sent the good guns out with the bad and let the customer send them back if they were bad. Today's Taurus is better but a reputation is hard to live down.

Since the Obama Boom in gun sales, Bud's has made millions. They are a Gun Dynasty. I don't think they would conspire to do anything underhanded. They already have the business they just need to keep their customers happy.  The apology e-mail they sent was too long. They should have made it short and to the point.

and don't serve me Turkey bacon. There is no such thing......and why do they try to make TOFU sausage or vegetarian hamburgers? You want to eat Tofu and vegetables fine. If you want to pretend like you are eating REAL sausage and REAL hamburger, then you are in denial! You are not a real vegetarian if you try to imitate meat!!!! Have you ever seen a VEGAN that didn't look hungry? 

No but it make their Richards feel big.  At my age, I think I'll put up my Glock 19 and start carrying my XD-45.
