  1. Well, I just got back from the range. It took me a couple shots to realize to cover up the target with the big green diamond. Man, that diamond really jumps out at you. I let a couple of the range guys at Nashville Armory look at them. I think they're a keeper for me. I'm not a great shooter, but this is 5 shots at 8 yards.
  2. Well, if you want to see them up close, shoot me a PM and maybe we can meet at a range.  I'm always looking for a reason to go, and good shooting tips too.  I'm going to try and go to Nashville Armory tomorrow.  Let me know if you're in the area.  It's too dang hot to go outside.
  3. I bought night sights.  It looks like they are made for Glocks, Springfield XD, XDm, and XDs, S&W M&Ps, and Sigs.  Here's a link to their website.   http://speedsights.com/
  4. I got a set of these installed and thought I'd post a cell phone picture of the result. The front diamond really stands out when taking aim. I look forward to trying these tomorrow.
  5. Evaporator (inside) or condenser (outside) coils?  I would be surprised to have that much junk in the evaporator coils unless you didn't have a filter on your unit.  I don't work on HVAC units, so that my opinion for whatever it's worth.  Most of the new evaporator coils are treated to prevent mold growth though.
  6.   Them ask those peaceful Muslims if a person should die that draws an unflattering cartoon of Mohammad.  I bet you'll see they aren't so peaceful after all.

    Xs sights

      I'll shoot you a PM if you want to try them out once I get them back.

    Xs sights

    I just got some of these, but I haven't had them installed yet. They're Diamond Speed Sights. I sure hope I like them!!! :rock:
  9. Nice pistol! Is that a tee shirt? I like that too. Let us know if it shoots better than your Colt.
  10. Sell the propane grill and buy CHARCOAL grill when you arrive. Your taste buds will thank you!
  11. Now this is a sweet looking pistol. I hope it shoots like it looks. Congrats!!!
  12. The Dan Wesson Heritage was at the top of my budget when I was looking.  I noticed a lot of posts at 1911forum.com with complaints on galling of their new pistols.  I know it's probably too late, but I'd still check that forum.  Lots of good info there.  Good luck with your new pistol, I'm sure it'll be a great 1911.
  13. I'm a Ford man too, but this Challenger sounds wicked.  Guy can't drive worth a flip though.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPdM1EIgYMY
  14. If you plan on shooting, then Nashville Armory is the place to go because they're close to you.  I don't visit too many gun stores (I have an addiction you see), but G&L in Greenbriar has one of the larger selections and very reasonably priced.

  16. Has anyone used this ammo?  It is a lightweight bullet traveling around 2000 fps.  It's available in a variety of calibers.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0EVjsX6G98
  17. Like others have stated--GO TO AN OPHTHALMOLOGIST!!!  Make an appointment and find out if there is anything wrong with your eyes.  Is it worth possibly losing your eyesight or the quality of vision you already have?  It could be due to a variety of factors, but you need to get to an ophthalmologist pronto.
  18.   As far as using worn out tooling, that's not true.  The 1911s Colt is now producing are all CNC machined.  They're pretty nice too.  Lots of issues with Colt, but building poor quality firearms isn't quite true anymore, at least not the ones I've seen.
  19. I've had several wrecks with uninsured motorists. Not all insurance companies will make you pay your deductible IF you have the other driver's information. I would highly recommend contacting an attorney and putting his arse UNDER the jail. Good luck and I hope you didn't get seriously hurt.
  20. I am not a Glock owner, but I have found all striker fired pistols seem to have a lot longer trigger pull than hammer pistols. I have XD pistols and constantly have to mentally slow down with my first mag to shoot it well. Just keep practicing and slow down your trigger pull.
  21.   I put 93,000 miles on a set of Goodyears on a Ford Ranger, and never rotated the tires.  I had a belt separate and ruined a tire, so I bought 4 new tires.  That was an experiment by me.  The one and only time.  :cool:  
  22. This "game" looks like a lot of fun. Now, who sunk my battleship? I can't wait 'til Saturday!

    My First 1911

    Either way, post pics when you get it.  I love gun porn!!  Congrats on the new pistol too.  When are we going shooting???  :cool:
