Heading to the M'boro gun show in a little while. If you see a fat ugly guy in a black CZ hat, say hi. LOL

For roughly the past 20 years almost all I've listened to in the car is political talk radio. Between that and the news on TV I have gradually gotten frustrated with both parties to the point that I feel nearly hopeless. The more I listened/watched the further away from the Constitution I feel our gov't has gotten. I vested a lot of hope in the Tea Party. I feel like if they got elected in large numbers we'd at least shrink the gov't and get our economy in check. I don't trust them with moral/social issues, though. Given enough power, I fear they'd try to install a theocracy of sorts, which is not Constitutional either. So, I try not to listen to as much news as I used to. A few hours a week keeps me angry enough to hate the Dems the most, but the GOP isn't much better. Neither party cares what the people want any more. You know who does? Miranda Lambert, Dropkick Murphys Luke Bryan, Flogging Molly, AC/DC, Lynrd Skynrd, Godsmack, Lady Antebellum, etc. Listening to them more has made me more happy in the past year than the news did in the previous 20 years.

OMG, that's hilarious.

If you see a 5' 3" redhead with long curly hair, freckles, and green eyes walking around with a retarded caveman with 1/4" thick glasses and a stupid look on his face while you're there, it's probably my sister and her husband. Tell her I said "Hi"

I suspect the dog put a round back in there to mess with you. seriously though, same thing happened to my dad once. scared the crap out of me. ironically, it was a lever-action 30-30.

I'd split a sixer with this guy just to watch him interview potential buyers.

I know this thread is really OLD, but I just started reading it today.   I'm quite impressed.

If the DumbAsCraps nominated him, it'd help the GOP chances, unless they run another McCain/Romney.

I've read some posts on XDTalk that say some people didn't get an email offering a free magazine. Some just got the update about the fix and the date. So, I wonder if everyone will get a free magazine or only those who sent theirs in early?

How much money could we trim from the fed budget if we shut down the EBT/STARS system EVERY weekend, making them do all their shopping on weekdays while their benefactors are working. I know I'd appreciate shorter lines at Kroger/Walmart on Saturdays and Sundays.

Not affecting me in any way, but I feel for the good people out there and on here that are being affected. Aside from the vindictive way the "shutdown" was engineered to inflict as much pain as possible, I think we'll be better off for it. Our fed gov't has been overstepping its Constitutional boundaries for decades, becoming too large to manage. Luckily, Obama, Reid, and their cronies are pissing off as many or more people than the GOP. I heard on 99.7 that the A$$hat-in-chief only has a 37% approval rating. Moves like spending as much money or more to enforce park shutdowns instead of leaving them open will not be forgotten in the mid-term elections next year. Maybe we'll get lucky and wind up with a lot more small gov't minded folks in Congress.

I applaud your resourcefulness. For a mere $5.25, the guys at CountyComm would be glad to save you some welding. But, I think your version has more "cool factor". Nonetheless, here's their video: [media]http://youtu.be/B6Ow2jwBNMs[/media]

Glad I'm not the only one. I'm up til 1:00 or 2:00 and up by 6:00 or 6:30 kinda guy, myself. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 4

Meanwhile, I bet you not one single welfare check was even delivered late and all of the food stamp deposits went through just fine.

My 1st press was a Lee turret. I reasoned that it'd be just as good as a Dillon, if you consider all the money I'll save.   I can admit when I'm wrong. I load 9mm Luger on a 650 now and 45 acp on a 550. Once you go BLUE, you'll always stay true.   The Lee sits untouched in the off chance I feel like reloading a dozen or so Makarovs for the range.

His Taurus jammed, LMFAO. Wouldn't have needed the hawk if he'd been toting a Hi-Point instead. He could have thrown it the target...InstaKill!

Oh come on, that's not so bad...a little duct tape will hold it together until the Crazy Glue dries. Then you're back in the fight.

I heard a cop on Sleepy Hollow last night un-cock her Glock when she realized the threat was over.

  I have a lot of kydex hanging around from making holsters. I can see myself making small ones that tuck in pockets to hold small tools and supplies. Thanks for the idea.       Are you calling me a backpack organizer whore?

I thought the Spartans killed them all...     [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkvPSnVJFlc[/media]

Very neat idea. Kinda reminds me of this: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Cocoon-7.55-x-10.5-GRID-IT-Organizer-Black/22339587 I got it from walmart, but I bet yours is much cheaper

I literally LOL'd, thanks!! that was awesome!

I got one a few months back from DVOR.com, but only paid around $79.99. It's my favorite range bag I've ever used.

I just finished reading the endless thread on XDTalk.com about the recall. Multiple people confirm exactly what you are saying: 1) They are still trying to figure out how to fix them. 2) One a fix is identified, they intend to do extensive testing for our safety. 3) If the fix passes testing, they have to order parts from Croatia to performs the repairs. 4) Once the parts arrive in IL, they will begin repairing and mailing back our guns. I'd be surprised to have my gun back by Thanksgiving or Christmas. Another interesting thing I found out while I was there. The serial number ranges on the guns that were recalled covers somewhere between 225K and 250K guns, which is EVERY XD-S they made. Funny, posting affected serial numbers gave most the impression that all of them weren't affected, which is kind of devious, if you ask me.

I shot mine plenty before it got shipped off and loved it. So, I'm missing mine something fierce. I almost wish I was like you and hadn't shot it. At least then I wouldn't be pining for it back so badly.
