Cool setup! However, I highly recommend getting rid of the drink holder or using it for something else. Drinking and/or eating while loading is always a bad idea.

Water Situation in California

California - where rivers are drained to irrigate the desert. -
Do you have many Oscars in your movie collection?
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 replied to Alpo's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I have a few, I think. TCM’s criteria is pretty broad though, so I might have more than I think. Most of the pics they feature have won Oscars for lesser known categories such as best editing, best sound effects et al, with some being pretty obscure. -
Biden's new gun control effort

Executive orders are mostly PR, meant to give the appearance of acting on an issue. -
Yup, about an hour east of me. His parts appear to scattered though. Scroll down to Burial at this link. As I recall from the referenced book, his head remains unaccounted for as it was part of someone’s collection, or so claimed. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Quantrill

While not a biography of him, “A Dynasty of Outlaws” covers him pretty well, along with the Daltons, James brothers and more.

By volume. This ain’t rocket surgery. -
Mine’s a Glock 43. No need to post a pic as it looks like all the others. I think it’s classy because it dispenses everything I put through it without a hiccup and is easier for me to manage than a revolver in DA mode. I can’t shoot the wings off flies with it, but I don’t think I need to worry about them. Lovely pistols shown in this thread!

Looks like I reeled in a scammer
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 replied to Doc Fill 'Em 67797's topic in SASS Wire
Replying to scammers is fool’s errand, even if you think you’re playing a game. That just verifies they have a valid contact which will now be spread globally to other scammers. -
Which today, marks the start of wabbit season.

Conditions aboard US subs were better than the U-boats. They were 60-90 feet longer and air-conditioned. (The Pogy was 311’ long vs 220’ for the U-995.) The A/C was mainly to keep moisture out of the electronics, as opposed to the crew’s comfort. It was nice benefit for them though, as no surface vessels had it. Of the roughly 4,000 German U-boat sailors who put to sea, 3,000 never returned.

Didja ever see The Missouri Breaks? Welll…
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 replied to Utah Bob #35998's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
You can’t light your gas stove with a match when the electric igniter is out? Never heard of such a thing. Is there some kind of electric valve that shuts off the gas flow? -

My son and his wife live in Flagstaff, where they’re getting hammered this year. He said he’s never seen a winter like this.
