  1. I occasionally visit the John Sevier range on rifle range road.
  2. Yep keep checking the trading post and buy with confidence!
  3. It's a great group, even when we agree to ddisagree we stay pretty civil. Probably because we live in fear of our mods and banishment lol
  4. It's all good, get your hcp and watch the signage
  5. Glad to have you back!
  6. When you find your spot the good news is year round outdoor shooting without a parka!
  7. Welcome and I too appreciate your service. This is a great place
  8. Craig, You've got some of the coolest modified platforms...keep those pics coming!
  9. All the illegals should be in good shape as they don't need ID to fly...
  10.   Don't apologize for having a great experience with a firearm nor for posting first hand experience.   When I did my research on HiPoint carbines, if I believed all the second hand, brother's cousin's girlfiend's uncle's mailman's experiences, I would not be an owner today.
  11. Canned roma tomatoes, jalapeño and pickles. Frozen green beans
  12. I will do my part to perpetuate the urban myth.
  13. 1. Be honest, when you say, "you're a grown man, do whatever the f@$# you want, " you really don't mean it.
  14. African or European swallow? A palindrome of Bolton would be Notlob. My rowboat is full of eels. Eat you? What, with a gammy leg? Tiger brand coffee, it's a real treat, even tigers prefer it to real meat.

    $40K TV

    My son sells electronics, 4K programming plus clarity on monster screen size sells...ridiculousness.
  16. His role in the new Maverick with Mel Gibson was priceless!
  17. In the Christian faith we are called to help others, what has gotten lost is helping those who need a hand up not a hand out. The most un-Christian card to play is for the looter to use guilt to get the producer to provide for his or her needs. The Bible is filled with God's Word to produce and take care of one's self as long as one is able. We can only do our best and know even if we are taken advantage of by a looter that we are rewarded in the spirit of doing the right thing.
  18. Time of day, body language, attire - all comes into play when a stranger steps onto our porch.   I will say, our 25# Jack Russell mix would be the first line of defense, she goes INSANE when a stranger comes a knockin' and we have not raised an aggressive guard dog!   This includes pest control, pizza guy, UPS / FEDEX guy, repairman, etc - we've got to crate or lease her to open the door) If my wife is home by herself, there is no doubt my dog would lay down her life for "Mom"   Highly unlikely someone we know would show up unannounced or unexpected after dark, so I govern myself accordingly.   Need to use the phone - we no longer have a landline, but with a cell phone, predicated upon behavior, I may or may not give access to the phone, but they WILL NOT be allowed into my home to use the phone.   I would also be on the lookout for a second / third person who could get the drop on me.   Erratic or aggressive behavior, I'm calling Five Oh for backup as soon as I retreat back inside / close the door (note all during this time my insane dog is trying to get out to "meet and greet" the stranger and I would probably mention, 'yep, she'd bite the snot out of you')   Desperate people do desperate things.
  19. Thanks for all the replies! Now to make a decision :o
  20. What should I spend on acceptable quality parts? $600? $800?
  21. Frozen pizza of your choice, we like Tombstone or Tony's   Add home grown, garden fresh Roma tomatoes and basil   Supplement toppings with your choice of extra cheese, pepperoni, etc.   Bake   Devour
  22. My title was misleading, I'm not currently building one, just starting my research. As far as cost, what will the parts cost?
  23. What can expect to spend for a reliable platform?   What mags do you use?   What is the effective range?   Any idea how ballistics would compare to a .38/.357 carbine?        
  24. The next firearm I'll most likely buy will be a .22LR   I just don't know which one to get.   Looked at numerous:   1022s, from practical to tactical (Tuffus just posted a video on the 50th anniversary model which looks pretty cool)   Other semis   Lever guns   bolt action   AR-style   M1 Carbine style   It'll be for target / plinking and "survival" should the EOTW come a-knockin'   Suggestions, recommendations and opinions needed!
