  1. Carry the P22 as well? Meh. I wouldn't sweat it. A little situational awareness goes a long way. You might try ankle carry or one of those holster undershirt things.
  2. What lowpower said. 100% gas too. Generally, 2-strokes are meant to run at one speed... WFO. If run at half throttle, he exhaust will coke up to the point that it restricts flow so much the engine won't run anymore. It can also help to run the fuel mix with more oil. Most newer ones run on 50:1... Try 40:1 instead. It'll run cooler.
  3. Wow. There's 6 pages of thread here and counting and everyone agrees. That's gotta be a record. I think the OP deserves an award. We could call it the DHITP award. :D
  4. Pan fried catfish or tilapia...      1. Preheat a pan with some oil, preferably olive, sunflower or canola oil.  Don't need a lot of oil, just enough to cover the whole bottom of the pan maybe 1/8th inch deep.  I can't tell you a temp... just put a pinch of cornmeal in the oil and when it sizzles nicely, it's ready. 2. Dip the fillets in milk, the richer the better.  Buttermilk is best. 3. Coat fillets liberally with corn meal.  4. Put them in the oil and cook until golden brown, maybe 5-8 minutes per side. Be careful here... if the oil is too hot, it'll pop and burn the crap outa you.  5. Take them out and lay them on a plate with a couple paper towels to soak up the excess oil.  Season to taste... Slap Ya Momma is my favorite.     Grilled salmon....   1. Pre-heat grill just like you would for a steak. 2. Brush salmon lightly with olive oil, both sides.  Dust the top with seasoning of your choice.  I like garlic & herbs. 3. Lightly brush the grill grate with oil and grill skin side down.  When the edges start to look done (6-10 mins) and a milky white fluid appears on the top, flip it for a minute or two to sear the top.  Flipping it can be touchy if the skin sticks to your grill, be careful else you'll destroy the fish. Otherwise the skin should peel right off.    I've also got an excellent marinade for meaty fish like salmon or tuna.  It's got cider vinegar and Worcestershire sauce but I can't remember it off the top of my head.      And on this topic.... home-made tartar sauce....   Combine 2 tbsp mayo, 2 tbsp sweet pickle relish, and 1-2 tbsp horseradish sauce depending on how hot you like it.  Mix thoroughly.  Can also add some other seasonings if you like.
  5. Yep, that just reinforces my prior opinion...
  6. What Dave said.  Great progress has been made in recent years and I think the ammo/gun bans are in retaliation for it.  Besides, bitching on the interwebs is what you do these days.  Getting off the couch and doing something is so...  70's.  ;)
  7. That would be nice, but if it's not practical then there's not much you can do. The .25 isn't the greatest choice but a .25 in your pocket is better than a .50 in the sock drawer at home. If it's reliable and you trust it, fine. Something like a Shield would be better but if I had the same options as you, I'd do exactly the same thing. I also suspect you're over thinking the printing issue, but if you're uncomfortable then that just makes it that much more obvious.
  8. Run. Run like the wind.
  9. Nice!
  10. Unless you're a large person, the beretta 92 is gonna be hard to hide. They're freakin huge and there's no getting around that. I think you're doing the best you can with what you've got.
  11. Saw an episode of River Monsters where a toddler fell in and got consumed right in front of his family. As the parent of a toddler.... that completely creeped me out.
  12. I doubt the gun industry is any different than anything else anymore. I've had 3 engineering jobs in 3 different industries and seen it happen in all 3.
  13. +1 to what batman and sidewinder said. I work in aviation, most folks are more than happy to share their passion. Dad took me flying when I was a kid and I loved it... still do. We never owned an airplane and we quit going when renting got too expensive. I'll ask around at work and see if anyone might be able to help you out. Also... the chilhowee glider port is right off 411 near etowah. They do rides, we got one for dad for Father's Day a few years ago. http://www.chilhowee.com
  14. Operations is the people who run production. Yes, they can override QA. They, and everyone else, are slaves to the bean counters. And by bean counters, I mean share holders and/or investors. Apparently the management at Remington didn't want to hear the bad news about the product. Fixing the problems (and product development in general) takes time and costs money, that makes the bean counters unhappy. And when the bean counters ain't happy, nobody's happy. As Garufa says.... Manufacturing in America.
  15. Nice choice. The G19 is the only Glock I like. My experience with snubbies was similar to yours.
  16. Nope. Operations runs the show and decided to launch the product. Engineering just did what they were told.
  17. Yep, the bottom must be falling out.
  18. My understanding from the OP was that this did happen at an intersection. But yes, there are a bunch of crosswalks not at intersections. The law states all intersections are effectively crosswalks whether they're marked or not and cars must yield to pedestrians. Then it says if the pedestrian is jay walking, the responsibility is on them.

    Need SKS help

    I think you've got to remove the trigger assembly to remove or install the magazine.
  20. I've seen that one as well.  Just remember, profiling is wrong.  :)
  21.     Break it and try again. 
  22.     FTFY.    :)       But it also says this...  
  23.   :drama:   :cry:           :rolleyes:
  24. Meh.  Neither her looks nor her singing do a thing for me.  I get the impression that she's just another manufactured pop star.  I'd sure like to trade paychecks with her, but I'm not sure all the baggage would be worth it. 
  25. Welcome!
