I'm more interested in what the Senate does. Nothing that I really need, gun or ammo wise.

Front Sight Focus: Is It Really Appropriate For Combatives?
Grunt67 replied to TGO David's topic in Training Discussions
When I was in Infantry training, at Ft. Jackson,SC, we were trained to "point shoot" with Daisy BB guns, no sights. Targets hanging in trees, bushes, in the woods. Long story short, it works reasonably close. 400 yds., not so much, LOL. -
Easy on/off OWB Holster for a 3" Ruger LCRx .357?
Grunt67 replied to a topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
PJ holsters in Bradenton,Fla. I've used them on my Walther PPS M2 & Walther PPQ. They are simple, light weight, fit close to the body, snap on the belt, made of kydex, inexpensive, $55, free shipping. Seems to fit your needs. Check 'em out. I have no connection to the co. Just good stuff. -
Very nice quilts, RED. My Mom & Grandmothers, used to do the same when I was a little yonker. When Mom dies, there were 22 quilts in a storage box upstairs. I kept them for years, but finally decided to sell them, had to make room. Kept one that my Great Grandmother stitched my name on. These old handmade quilts are worth quite a good sum from collectors.

The Shield red dot on Walther, doesn't have to be turned on & off, stays on. Normal batt. life 2 to 3 yrs.
-
Hate to admit it, but I remember the reel to reel quite well, & had one. LOL
-
S&W is coming out with the Shield with the red dot already mounted. Other Shields will have to have the slide milled to accept to red dot. Not sure when they will hit shelves, might be something to check into if you leaning that direction. Still haven't got to sight mine in yet, too many other issues taking priority. I'll post the results/opinion when I get 'er done. Sorry, NickinTn. didn't mean to step on your post. It came up while I was typing.

Where do you buy your reloading supplies?
Grunt67 replied to enfield's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
Same here. I'm doing it as a hobby/past time. I have more now, then I'll ever need. Don't have much opportunity or place to shoot as much as I'd like. Just enjoy doing it when I can't get outside to do stuff, due to weather, etc. -
Cool it may be, but I'm not into cool. My reason has to do with my eyesight. The red dot is easier to deal with, much like a crosshair on a scope. Only one thing to deal with. Is it for everybody? Not likely, but it's catching on fairly fast in some circles. Has nothing to do with the red dot, but I'm a diehard Walther fan.

Your retired Military ID will work.
-
Update, I looked this up, a military ID, or a valid passport is fine, also a gov. PIV ( Personal Identification Verification card ).
-
Well, so far I like it. Haven't had a chance to shoot it yet, been too busy with projects on the house. Did get the zero roughed in according to instructions. Anxious to get it fully zeroed & put some rounds down range. I'll let you know how it goes.

I have an outside antenna. It picks up several channels, including locals. Most of them are junk. But aside from the cost of the antenna, cables, pole, the rest is free, so...... You should be able to pick up quite a bit in your location. Good luck.
-
Thanks, that's the plan. The red dot is similar to a crosshair on a scope, only one thing to deal with. It takes some getting used to, as far as picking the dot up. Wearing tri-focal glasses is hard to find that sweet spot of the three. The sweet spot makes me have to tilt my head at an uncomfortable angle. Doable, but slow. Ok for paper, but not so great in a gun fight, too slow. We'll see how it goes. I'll give a report when I get it zeroed in, and some practice.
-
This am, I ordered a new gun I've been wanting for a while. Walther PPS M2 RSMc 9mm. Has a Shield red dot sight with 4MOA dot. Should be here Thurs. or Fri. Anxious to say the least. Got zeroing to do. Sights co-witness with the iron sights, if needed. The dot stays on all the time & adjusts for light. We'll see how it goes, will take some getting used to. My old eyes, and tri-focal glasses, will, I think work better than with iron sights. Ordered from Lebanon Gun Shop, on Hartman Dr.

Doug, glad to hear you're getting settled in in a nice home. As for the fiber optics, it takes a while. Finally got it out my way a few months ago, took about a couple of yrs. after I signed up to get it installed. Worth the wait, Verizon wireless sucks. The local electric utility co. got a grant to out it in Trousdale Co. Good luck buddy........

You would think the Mil/VA ID would work.........., but just beause it makes sense, doesn't mean it will fly (pun ). Haven't been on a commercial aircraft since '68, don't plan to.
-
Just wondering, if this is an attempt at a National ID, I already have a Retired Army ID card, which does not expire until I do, Plus, a VA ID card, that is national, as well. Would I need the TDL update to fly ( which I have no intention of doing ).?

Hmmmmmm!

Where do you buy your reloading supplies?
Grunt67 replied to enfield's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
Mostly from Reloaders Bench in Mt. Juliet. Some from Mid-South in Clarksville online. I'm pretty well stocked on ammo, thru a couple of good sized wars. The reloading I do now, is just to have something to to when I can't be outside. -

Suppressors may be next on Trump’s list
Grunt67 replied to Chucktshoes's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
At this point, it doesn't bode well for the suppressor crowd. Remains to be seen how this all shakes out. Bump stocks, suppressors, one piece at a time. Next, mags, barrels, triggers....? Personally, I have no need for either, maybe some do. I like my guns just the way they are. They shoot well, reliable, hit the target. That's all I ask for. JMHO
