Sell it for its value in todays market. I was selling off primers and powder since I can't shoot any more. Sold it for what the market was buying it for. Not what I paid for it. Primers were $100/1,000. I sold mine for $75.

The high rise core of buildings is safe and clean. Go a few blocks in any direction and it turns into a 3rd world crap hole.

4.4 mile record rifle shot
irish ike, SASS #43615 replied to Rye Miles #13621's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Billy Dixon, 1320 yards and hit an Indian on a horse in one shot. 45-90 or 50-90. He called it a scratch shot.. AKA just plain luck. -
We did have a lot of carriers
irish ike, SASS #43615 replied to Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Jeep carriers, thin hulls, little armament, just used to transport replacement planes or land based planes. -
I've never understood the whole "Trailboss" thing! I shot it, clays, universal clays, black powder etc. Funny thing is they all go bang. When powders short buy and shoot what you can.

Yet another newbie question about gear - knives
irish ike, SASS #43615 replied to Dapper Dave's topic in SASS Wire
Not sure why any knife would be verboten. You see all types along with cell phones and wrist watches. Wear what you want. -
Not to be technical but I will. Round didn't hit the ground nor hit a prop?

If you’re interested in Jordan Peterson
irish ike, SASS #43615 replied to Buckshot Bob 's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Peterson is an interesting person. Professor of Psychology and practicing Psychologist. The Canadian Gov. wanted to pass a law making it illegal to not use someones correct pronouns!. Peterson fought it on two levels. 1. it was "required speech" compromising ones freedom of speech. 2. the other was based on people with pronouns and 5 genders were mentally ill and should seek help. He was tossed out of his university. And the Gov. threatened to take his license to practice away. His efforts caused the Bill not to be passed. He is a conservative and very outspoken about government over reach. -
8th grade teacher was trying to make a point about telling stories or rumors. So she handed a kid a note and said read this and then turn and repeat what it said to the kid behind you. And so on until the last kid had been told the story. 25 or so kids were told the story. She then had the last kid stand up and repeat what was said. Then she had the first kid stand up and read exactly what the story was. It was completely different. Things were dropped and added onto. So don't spread rumors. Sort of like the media.

Good Thing We Have Strict Laws

Knowing Calif. judicial system, he'll get 6 months probation, free healthcare, and subsidized housing while going to school to study LGTSNoY +++lmno. -
Well that s#*ks. Rounds for the house.

Ask a bunch of questions about the outcome. They do a reverse joint. Ball is screwed to your shoulder blade. Socket is pushed into the end of your humerus. It changes the geometry of your shoulder rotation. I can't reach behind my back to tuck my shirt in or use a small of the back holster. Also you won't be able to raise your arm straight up. About 85%. Doc said thats the normal outcome. I had a detached ligament. I was told not to lift over 15 lbs or risk detaching the ligament again. I've learned to use my left arm a lot since surgery. 6 weeks recovery depends on you, your therapist, and the extent of the re-work. Good luck. -
Never said I didn't like the police. Just pointing out that cops can have crappy attitudes also. Whats interesting is the patrol cops depend on their leadership to keep them up to date on laws and court rulings. Then they come across a citizen who nows the law better and they find out the hard way the citizen is right. $$$$$$$$ money being paid from lawsuits. Is YouTube full of videos showing cops in a bad light? No. Its full of videos of cops who need more training and respect for the laws and rights in place.

Insane how many people screw with trucks. 80,000 lbs of death and destruction. Brake checking one leads to some serious results. If I see one with it signal on wanting over I'll slow down and let them in. If I pass I come back into their lane with a signal and plenty of distance between us. They're doing their job. They don't need our petty BS.

What about all the cops that have really bad attitudes? Telling people to shut up, not answering questions, won't identify themselves, claim they know the law better than the driver. And in most cases on YouTube the driver is right about the law and or their civil rights. Retaliation against the driver because they knew their rights. Cops call that being uncooperative. Usually end up cuffing the driver. Its not being a sovereign citizen for standing by their rights. Funny how many cops think the 5th amendment only applies if y9our arrested. And they arrest someone for not answering questions. Even sCOTUS has said do not talk to cops. Invoke your rights.

It is as long as the cops have RAS. Reasonable articulable suspicion that 1. a crime has occurred, 2. you're in the process of committing a crime, 3. you're about to commit a crime. Suspicion in of itself is not a crime. and they just can't stop you and frisk you. New York got sued a bunch because cops were just searching people with no RAS.

Shoulder replacement, I sold my Sharps 45-70, my M1 Garrand, and my 03 Springfield. Can't shoot them so I sold them. I'm trying a 40-65 Highwall right now.

Elon Musk and His Secret Agenda
irish ike, SASS #43615 replied to Subdeacon Joe's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I agree but, have you ever listened to him in an interview? His manner of speech and how it creates a point is hard to listen too. -
38-55 is a good cartridge for SASS long range. SASS long range really isn't long range. Most ranges can offer 100 to 200 yards. Most SASS LR matches are the most hits in the least amount of time. No bulls eye ever. Cimarron products are top notch.

The guy did what he was legally required to do. He does not have to answer any questions He does not have to roll his window down, no law on the books anywhere for that. He does not have to tell them where he's been or where he's going. He does not have to tell them if he's been drinking. Chewing gum is now considered a "suspicious" act by the driver. Thats just funny. Many of these check points are the result of getting Federal grants. So its let's go spend some Federal money and get some OT pay! The Border Patrol stops are even worse.

Government projects tell us we don't want them running our healthcare system.

My Uberti's wouldn't let you touch the trigger as it would prevent the hammer from being pulled back. A safety thing. As a dualist I found it frustrating. I had the innards re-done to allow the hammer to be pulled back. It also now allows slip hammering.

So.............Chapter 2 was supposed to be released in August. Delayed until? Chapters 3 & 4 put on hold. Costner is trying to get Netfix to produce them. Money wise, Chapter 1 was not a good investment.
