In my old trade, screw retention (keeping the screw on the bit unattended) was a BIG plus. Still is to me. The square tip holds even stainless screws securely. Maintaining good pressure, and a good tip, is the key for me. Because you're not holding the screw with one hand and the driver with the other, the square tips avert the dreaded Phillips head or straight blade stab. IMO, getting the screw to initially bite well is essential to fastening without cussing. I'll probably cuss anyway while working, regardless of success. Bad habits are hard to break.

I guess there's not much since in calling them about a .30 Carbine one with pricing like that. Too bad, the do (or did the last time I bought an M1) make a good derringer. Way too rich for my blood also.

I didn't need any, but I filled everything out like I did to view the total price. Came out to something like $264 total to my door. Pretty good price these days.

Wait, you have friends? When did that happen? Signed, Your friend Sun!

Why, where's the fun in that?

I like pork sausage, heck, I like almost everything pork....except for Spam and Pickled pigs feet. Like I said, I could eat Spam or feet if I had to, just prefer not to if there's anything else to eat...except for beets. I'll eat live fire ants before I'd eat beets of any kind.

The cabbage dish that you described sounds real good to me! Spam? No, not even Monty Python can't make it worth eating! Maybe if I was really hungry....real hungry....maybe.

I'll take a square tip (Robertson) headed screw over any other type of screw every day, ten days a week. I absolutely detest so-called "multiuse" screw heads. Friggen HATE 'em. Combo Phillips, Robertson, Flat head and Star bit. Impossible to tighten correctly or torque properly. Whomever invented it should be imprisoned in hell with Otto.

I think that American Derringer is still in business but haven't verified it. They did make, and maybe still do, a .32-20 derringer. My Dad has one. I believe it was the M-1 model.

Do tell? No.

National Prisoner of War Day is today 4/9. The date, 4/9/42 is significant in our history as it is the date that Bataan, commanded by General Jonathan Wainwright after MacArthur left, surrendered to overwhelming Japanese forces. Over 10,000 American troops were ordered to surrender and obeyed the orders to surrender. General Wainwright (1883 - 1953) attempted to continue the fight from the tiny island fortress of Corregidor where the forces there lasted 10 more days before forced into the final surrender of all American forces in the Philippines to the Japanese. General Wainwright surrendered the forces under his command to prevent the slaughter of his men at the hands of a vastly superior Japanese force. The American prisoners began their interment with the Bataan Death March and brutal, inhumane treatment which continued until the end of the war in 1945. General Wainwright received the Medal of Honor in 1945. He had been nominated in 1942 but strong protest by MacArthur became a factor against it. Prisoners of war throughout the centuries of war have been remained an unspoken topic for as long as there has been human conflict. They served no less than their fellow combatants yet are somehow ignored in the general public. Out of sight, out of mind I guess. Take a chance today to thank them albeit most of them are unknown to many. I have. How forgotten WWII hero Gen. Wainwright survived Japanese POW camps | Fox News

He's not kidding, I've seen him shoot!

If you can see fricasseed racoon tail, fried opossum or boiled armadillo (served any way at all) as being edible or becoming a tradition....your meds must be WAAAAAAY out of wack. PS - Don't cook armadillo in the house, the smell won't go away for days.

That's not Coyote ugly, that's Wolfman ugly. No amount of alcohol is gonna change that.

Hate to say it, but I will....there will never be a cure for cancer. Too much money being made in cancer treatments and pharmaceuticals. The cancer treatment business is vast and extremely lucrative and they are not going to just roll over and give up that money. It's sad, but I believe it to be true.

They had a lot of that on the show Yellowstone. I talked to a guy that knows horses about the horses in the show doing the skidding thing....them's some REAL EXPENSIVE horses.

About 7 or 8 years ago, I noticed that some folks were having problems with light strikes on Winchester AA's. It only happened on S x S's. Primer depth on the factory shells varied considerably. On some shells, the primer was recessed so far down that they wouldn't even fire out of my 97. These were people who had never had trouble with light strikes previously. Also, Winchester ammo made during the plague seemed to have quite a few manufacturing defects. Not saying that there isn't a problem with your shotgun, just saying to eliminate the possiblility of ammo problems before tearing the shotgun apart and "fixing" something that doesn't need fixing.

Happened on both sides, at different times? Might want to look at the ammo also.

Ever go to the large match host hotel front desk and ask "Can you tell me which room Diamond Bob (or other alias) is staying in?" For some reason they don't have aliases listed on the hotel registry.

Ben and Willard were weird, creepy movies. I use peanut butter to train rats on Victor traps. Oddly enough, they never get through the first training session.

Most of them, I only know their alias. I might know their first name but other than that, total stranger. Some are listed in my speed dial by alias. The Polk County Crackers in Lakeland gave out a list of real names and addresses at Christmas time in 1998/99 so we could send Christmas cards to each other. Nice gesture I guess, except for the fact that now people, that you have no idea who they REALLY are, have your real name and address. First thing I asked was "Who are these people?" On the other hand, I've loaned backup firearms to people at State and below matches to use during the matches back in the day even though they were on different posse's other than myself. Didn't know their real names, or much about them at the time....always got my guns back with no problems. Not so sure I'd do that these days.

He was focused and concentrating entirely on the ball, like all good fielders should. Just lost spatial awareness in his own park. It happens. Damn nice full run snag. I wonder if the netting prevented further injury.
