  1. Don't know what to add without sounding like a Randy fanboy or aggressive salesperson. If I ever get my M1 carbine running, I would like to do another close range rifle class.
  2. The real issue ssue may very well be "individuals" trying to exist within the collective
  3. A book by Napoleon Hill. Interesting read, especially considering the author, Hill, claims he has a conversation with the Devil himself. Yeah, the father of self help and the power of positive thinking, held a Q&A session with God's antithesis. So far out there, it was written in 1938 but the family did not allow it to be published until 2011...Hill calls out religious and educational leadership and shows how the the Devil (or these negative forces) are influencing their institutions. A less religious view could be the negative powers of nature, order/chaos, good/evil, creative/destructive, etc. Whether an out of body experience, communicating with a conscious sub conscious or with some kind of manifestation of negative energy, it is very well written. If anyone would be interested, I can post some stuff from book for lively and civil conversation...some of the content is relevant today.
  4. I haven't seen the Tetra for sale locally, will keep my eyes open, thanks for the recommendation. I've got some old fashion Riggs gun grease on hand. Btw, love your avatar When I see it, I simply substitute your screen name for Fred Garvin then mentally complete the line...cracks me up every time.
  5. Stripped down Liberally applied CLP Will re apply tomorrow after I get access to my bother in law's air compressor. Replaced hammer and guide spring. Anything I am missing or should address? Recommend lubricant to keep it running well?
  6. The want to make sure we don't have the Right to Arm Bears
  7. I've got both a 2" and 3" SP101. 90% of the time, I'm shooting .38/.38+p Great for carry, plinking and home defense. I do have upgraded grips, and had some work to make the action better. 25oz on the 2" if memory serves, so it's not a lightweight. Maybe look at an MK9? Mine replaced the SPs for carry and has similar shootability traits. I like mine a lot
  8. And the police, who are trained in traffic and crowd control are powerless to enforce any pedestrian or vehicle traffic law.
  9. Jails are full to the brim, immigration courts are probably back logged for years. They're not dealing drugs or committing acts of violence with guns or bombs, so they are looooow priority. Apparently there is no concern about what these criminals actually do with the money collected after expenses.
  10. It's a scam, unless the IRS is staffing call centers with middle East accent required... Wife got a call 3ish weeks ago, When she called back, answered, "hello," then "transferred" it sounded like a residence with a bunch of folks in a basement. 212 area code if i recall
  11. It's sticking. A tap will will extend it.
  12. I'm getting awful good at dis- and re-assembly.
  13. Function test yesterday 2 15 round mags, flawless, 1 30 round loaded to 25, flawless. Then it started slowing down, weak ejection, could see the slide recoiling 2/3 to 3/4, enough to cock the hammer, but no far enough back to strip the next round from the mag. Planning on a deep clean ( which I thought I had) Best way to clean the gas block and piston without disassembly?
  14. First read the title, "I love caning" Which I do, we also can...tomatoes, beans, jalapenos The only fail was with end of season green tomatoes. We do freeze blackberries, still got 2 qts from last year, need to find a moonshiner and work a trade...
  15. As my Cali based company does. No guns and no pre-employ drug testing
  16. Definitely give a review!
  17. http://www.thepocketshot.com/store/c1/Featured_Products.html
  18. Playing on Netflix. Simplified explanation of the 08 meltdown, but overall enjoyable film. System broke down based the premise, "who the he'll doesn't pay their mortgage." Then add unchecked greed and tin foil hat conspiracies that everyone (or nobody) knew. Synthetic CDOs...you find out at the end of the film, investment banks are still doing them under a new name. Most non credit union auto lenders use the ABS market to obtain funding for new loans. They use the loans they originate as asset-backed-securities. As the loans pay, the lender pays the security holders and retains the difference in rate to cover expenses and earn profit. Delinquency rates in these pools are reaching levels and in some cases higher than 2006. 2015 had record setting car sales...demand or relaxing of credit standards? Another tax layer bail out? Wall Street and Government have learned tax payers pony up without representation ...S&L Bailout of the 90s, 2003 government kick in for our mini recession, 08 of course. What's next?
  19. It was a military leader who transformed Turkey from part of an Islamic empire to a modern secular republic. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mustafa_Kemal_Atatürk Hope they do it again.
  20. In regards to? It's a new topic of interest, where am I wrong in my post? I'll edit if it I am posting urban myth and dis-information
  21. Is the road to famine. Not a farmer, but I read a bit. No genmod, no herbicide or pesticide means 3x the land needed for the same (or less) yield. Fertilizer, only the best human, horse or cow excrement. A breeding ground for e coli. Plus the impact of all those honey trucks crossing the US. What about the labor just to weed a field, I spend hours in my small garden to keep the weeds at bay. Like it or not, it is modern, industrial farming that allows population to increase. Look at countries with famine in our time. Typically non industrial farming and eventually the population exceeds what those traditional farming methods can yield. Despite government regulation of the AgriCorps, they can be evil entities. Remember in 1995 when ADM (supermarket to the world) fixed the global price of lysine? Made 80 million or so and fined 100 million...which I am sure was rolled into the expense column and ultimately passed on to the consumer. Which begs the question, are fines levied against corporations truly punitive? It's a great revenue stream for government
  22. Mrs GtG has a G3 17 and loves it; she does not carry. She shoots it way better than me, but I'm a 10 year CZ fanboy. My advice, trade the 19 for a P01 (or 75 if you want/need a full size)
  23. 75B Omega. Was my EDC for years. Upgraded to a SDP from CZC for double the money...its a great pistol, better ergos for smaller hands and highly recommended, but I still shoot the Omega slightly better... Plus those all steel mags can double as blunt striking objects
  24. CZ supported forum? If you don't trash the brand based on emition only and list out the issues there are some pretty sharp members here who could help you troubleshoot
