I hope every family that receives that letter sues her on behalf of their children's "emotional damage". Make sure she cannot afford to give out candy or afford the paper for another letter.   This can cause long lasting emotional problems for a child.

I do not konw specifically about the Kimber but I do know that some guns have a "tapered" barrel. This allows enough clearance for the gun to cycle reliably while locking up as tight as possible for accuracy.

Yeah, there is plenty. Just need to figure out which brand as they are not all the same. I posted this a while back to help a guy figure out which brand would work with his shotgun.

 Did you use it to catch any foxes or to get any beaver?

I really like the Saiga rifle stocks. So much so I run one on my S12. For a grip I run a Molot and a ACE for a stock. The only difference between your S12 and mine is mine has HK sights welded on and the Saiga rifle stock. I even hae the CSS trigger guard and the auto plug.   The only thing left to do to mine is cutting and permanently attaching a flash hider. Well that and thread the barrel for an inside choke.

Do not shoot the dog unless it is a threat to you or your animals. Catch it and turn it over to the animal shelter. The neighbors may be saying it isn't their dog but if you shoot it they can make your life miserable if they can convince the authorities you shot the family dog. And despite what some people think, killing a companion animal is against the law unless it is a threat. Also, you want to really piss someone off then kill their kid's pet. At least if you turn it over to a shelter they can get it back and it might cost them money. Money is the biggest motivator to people like this.   As far as the kids throwing rocks I would approach the parents and ask them politely to keep their kids from throwing rocks on your property. Next step would be to have a letter delivered in writing saying the same thing. Then after that I would go through the courts and ask for a court order preventing it. I am not sure LE can, or should, be involved in what is a civil matter. During this whole time I would try to get as much video evidence as you can to support your court case as well as for proof when they decide to damage your property.

That is NOT a copperhead.

  I have never seen a 4 foot copperhead. The picture is not like any copperhead I have ever seen and I have seen my fair share. The head of a copperhead is a lot more triangulated and the markings are a lot more pronounced.

I called today and was advised that the current wait time is 15 months from the submission date. I suspect that is the worst case that way people are happy to get it in 12-14 months.

Here is an amazingly heroic act on the part of a single guy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=8AevLyTR6lM#t=136 Guy runs up and throws a hand grenade down the barrel of a tank. Good or bad it is still an amazing act of bravery.   Jump to 2:00 to see it.

Why would you want to change your name to that? But your wish is my command.

Cool. I consider them a vital piece of equipment for those that reload as well as long range shooters. Also glad to see the name thing got sorted out. It wasn't my doing.

That is not Syrian the narrator is speaking. Some sort of Slavic language. I have spents days watching the Syrian war. It is interesting the amount of ingenuity they have.

There is a company making triangle handguards. I will try to find them.

Can't get much cheaper than this. It is a work of art. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=181243919159#ht_509wt_1164

  The anti gun crowd already tried to make it the manufacturers fault and that didn't work so now it is on to the actual owners. I bet if it is used in a crime it will be spun as her husband's fault and not the criminal's.   I should not be compelled to do anything I do not want to with my property, like lock guns in a safe. If I lay all my guns out on my front yard and they are stolen it is not my fault, it is the fault of the criminal that stole them. Yes I would be stupid for doing it but it would not be my fault.   I honestly wish theft was a much more serious crime than it is. I would be for a mandatory minimum of years in jail but as it stands someone can have dozens of convictions for theft and as long as no one is physically hurt they get no jail time. Theft is the first step in most career criminal's lives and if we can severely punish them there I think a lot of the more serious crimes committed later by career criminal would be reduced. Criminals today know that their time in jail is going to be an easy road if, and that is a big if, that actually do any time. The criminals need to feel some discomfort or they will continue to break the law.   Once they are convicted and sent to prison they should not be comfortable. They should be provided with food, shelter, safety and medical care. They have no consitutional right to a television. They should have no right to conjugal visits so they can produce another child I am going to have to support. No radios, drawing supplies or any commissary. And the food should meet nutrition requirements, not taste requirements. Do like what has been done with those who throw food. Blend the entire meal together into a slurry then add flour and bake it like a giant bisquit. I am talking about the meats, veggies, desserts, fruits and drinks all into a single bisquit. It works well and meets the nutritional requirements. I am sure it would be easy for a company to produce "jail bisquits" and it would be cheaper than most of the current meals that are prepared for inmates. Inmates should not eat and live better than our soldiers serving overseas.  

Did you submit fingerprints and have the CLEO sign off? If not you will likely have to do it before it is approved. That is a proposed change to federal regulations that should go into effect pretty soon now. All trustees have to go through the same process as doing it as an individual.   I was going to do a trust but could not see the benefit for me. My stuff can transfer for free after my death. I was going to do a trust so friends could use my stuff but once the background came up I didn't want to do that to them.   BTW, I have heard the recent estimate at 15 months. Mine have been in the works since April 1st.

Have you ordered your adjustable gas block yet?

Some say that the XXX blocks are roller blocks but that is not the case. They can be but not all are. They all have the mounting pads for the spider but depending on the engine you might have to drill and tap the pads. I have found them that were not drilled and some that were. Here are a few pictures, not mine though: From here:http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/threads/302-xxx-block.720145/page-2 And another: From here: http://www.allfordmustangs.com/forums/classic-talk/23562-difference-between-302-302-ho.html And here is another that is not tapped: From here:http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1030076-302-roller-blocks.html You can also see how the block in the last picture is more "bright". They almost look like brushed nickle once you remove the paint.

Where did you pick it up from?

Contact TGO David for vendor pricing. You cannot come on here and compete with our paying vendors by advertising for free. We would like for you to become a vendor but you must follow the rules. You should have received an email regarding this. Thanks Dolomite

Good choice. I have used several different kinds of optics and Aimpoints tends to be one of the more reliable ones.

Check out Gilberts guns. They have some of the lowest prices, on some things, I have seen in a long time. They also ship fast.

Here is "the making" video for that one above. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bc5HUS8dLN0   In the first 25 seconds he says it is fake.

Buds has always made things right after the fact but EVERY purchase except one has had problems.   I had ordered a new Taurus 24/7 with tritium sights. A few days later the FFL called and said the gun was obviously used and was missing a front sight. I went to the FFL to inspect and it was indeed missing the front sight. I do not belive it was used but the FFL wasn't used the amount of grease Taurus covers their guns with. I contacted Buds and they said to refuse it. So I told the FFL I was not going to take it. He agreed and said it was going to be $35. I asked why and he said he already did the work and needed to get paid. I said I wasn't going to pay and he said he wasn't going to return the gun. I paid the transfer and Buds said it would take a few weeks to get a refund, it didn't but it was over a week.   But rather than wait for the replacement gun I decided to buy another of the same guns and then Buds can refund the purchase of the first gun. While on the phone with Derrick, a supervisor at the time, I asked him to personally inspect the gun and he agreed. After a couple of hours I called him back and he told me he had my gun right in front of him. He acted like he was inspecting it while I was on the phone and even asssured me the front sight was there. So I get excited but because of the weekend I have to wait until the following week to get the gun. I track it and once it showed delivered I called the FFL. He said he hadn't had a chance to log it in or inspect it. So I hoped in the car and headed that way. I got there as he was logging in the guns. The FFL handed me the box so I could open it and read off the serial number. As soon as I remove the plastic I got PISSED. It too was missing the front sight.   Now mind you both guns had tritium rear sights but no front sight.   So I call Buds and spend the usual 20 minutes wating for my time to come up in the que. Once they do I tell the agent I want to talk to Derrick. I get placed on hold then get sent to Derricks voicemail. I leave a message and he calls back a little while later. He seems upbeat because to him I finally got the gun I was waiting on. So I let him know this gun is missing the front sight and that I thought he inspected it while I was on the phone. He admitted he hadn't but did tell and worker to inspect it. He said I should contact Taurus to see what can be done. I contacted Taurus and they said I needed to return the gun to them so they coudl remove the rear sight and install standard sights. I told them no I just wanted a front tritium sight like what was supposed to be on there. They said they would not send any sights to a customer. I called Derrick back, another 20 minute wait in the que, and he said he would call Taurus. After about 10 minutes Derrick calls back and said you have a set of sights coming. He said to accept the gun. At this point I told him about the previous transfer fee, he credited my CC the transfer and added some for gas. So when I get home I call Taurus to verify I was receiving a tritium front sight. Well turns out it was a standard set of sights and not the tritium like I was lead to believe. At this point I called Derrick back and he said he did all he was going to do.   After getting the standard sights in I went ahead and paid $60 for a tritium front sight. I installed it and shot the gun some but I was so disgusted with everything I sold the gun a few days later.   The most recent was my Cricket pistol. I found one on Buds and I went ahead and ordered it. Less than a day later the price dropped on the website by about 20%. I called Buds and asked them to adjust the price and they said they would not. I told them that they hadn't shipped the gun or even charged my credit card yet. The agent said it didn't matter so I asked for a supervisor. I explained to the supervisor that they had dropped the price on the gun I just ordered and wanted the cost dropped for me to reflect the current price. He said he would not. I explained that I have had problems with Buds in the past and this would make things right. He said that was in the past and had no bearing on this. I asked what would happen if I cancelled the order and reordered. He said I could but because the current gun was already in the works I might get charged then have to wait for a refund. In the end I just let the order go through. He did say that any time they get guns in they take the current price and add a set amount of mark up. He said the reduced ones were likely cheaper for Buds so the price was reduced.   Now I will say when I ordered my third Taurus is came it and was fine. It had a front sight, not tritium, and I will keep it forever. I like it, my wife likes it and it is the most accurate 9mm I have ever shot.   I look around on their website but I go to other places to order guns. Gilbert's guns is one I ordered from and had zero issues. I have also been looking for a reason to order from KY Gun Company because they have decent prices as well.
