A very good mate made me a custom holster

Nice holster, Bear! -
Red Dot Sights/Officer Involved Shootings
Pat Riot replied to Lawdog Dago Dom's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
That’s because it takes twice the electronics to create the green dot over what it takes to create red dots therefore it draws more power and costs more. -
I drink Folgers Classic coffee most of the time. 3 heaping 1/8 cup scoops (1/4 cup each. I checked) to what they call 12 cups of water. It’s actually 12 - 6oz cups of water. We pay around $11 for the new 3# containers of coffee. No idea what it costs per cup.

Note: For anyone interested in a new knife, in particular the CRKT Ihave shown above. The M16, there are a number of variations of that knife. Note the blade shape. It is a b**** to sharpen with sharpening systems that clamp the blade and a stone is run over the edge. For those types of sharpening systems this model is much better: https://a.co/d/4zw5Hj6

Currently it’s a CRKT M16, a Victorinox Explorer and the handiest knife ever devised, the Victorinox Classic SD. I always have a Victorinox Spirit multitool nearby.

How long do you feel comfortable leaving powder in a hopper?
Pat Riot replied to Quiet Burp's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
91% Isopropyl Alcohol gets that hopper tint out if it’s not too bad. I did have an incident where I left powder in my hopper for about a month or so. It was July 11, 2019. That morning I got set up to load .38 Wadcutter rounds so that when I got home from work I could start right up getting some loading done. That afternoon that stupid woman hit me and my bike on the 105 freeway and I ended up in the hospital with numerous injuries including a punctured lung. There are some instances where it can’t be helped. -
I think that’s why my Mom bought Miracle Whip. A couple of years ago I bought a small jar or Miracle Whip to try again. I made a ham sandwich with it. I took 2 bites and that was enough Miracle Whip for me. My dog liked it though, so it wasn’t a total loss. I gave the remains MW to my brother. He still loves the stuff.

Oh yes it is! It’s funny, when I was a kid I liked slaw made with Miracle Whip and I think my Mom and Grandmothers put sugar in it too. Something happened to my tastebuds when I was in the Navy and Miracle Whip just tasted too sweet and too creamy.
-
(Shudder)…WAY too much sugar for me in coleslaw. Now, in apple pie and ice cream? Yeah, Buddy!
-
That’s a great idea! I don’t gun makers would do it though.

I haven’t had any issues with Federal AutoMatch at all, even out of my KelTec CP33 and my S&W 17-3. Maybe I’ve been lucky.

Me too. But I like mine chunky and vinegary. Lots of mayo too. I recall a restaurant in Charlotte that gave me a little 1/4 cup serving. I rated it then told the girl I wanted more. She left and I spotted her walking back with another little black thimble of cole slaw and I shook my head “No” and motioned at a bowl that a guy at the next table had full of soup. She turned back towards the kitchen. Suddenly she appeared next to me with a soup bowl full of Cole slaw. Yeah! Now you’re talkin’ I ate every bit of it. It was goo-ooooood! She got a nice tip too. https://macspeedshop.com/locations/southend/

Check out Condition 1 cases. Made in Texas in the USA. The have a 55” 2 gun case that I’ll bet could hold 4 cowboy long guns. It gets good reviews, not great reviews and it is not water proof. But it does not cost $400+ like Pelican and SKB cases do. https://a.co/d/erz6Xk9

Perhaps the idiocy of pricing everything at a dollar amount followed by .99 will end. Also, more copper for bullets. Yes, little one, pennies are only coated with copper, not made of copper, but still, the amount of copper available will increase if Uncle Sam isn’t making Pennie’s.

Fire a couple CCI Stingers into water jugs. The result is bizarrely scary. Though it’s not as impressive in ballistic gelatin set up like the FBI test with 4 layers of denim. It does expand to .32” and penetrates about 10”. I have yet to meet anyone that wears 4 layers of denim. Here’s proof, if you’re interested Click link. Select .22 Long Rifle https://www.luckygunner.com/labs/pocket-pistol-caliber-gel-test-results/#22LR

A .22 is better than harsh language. I have fired several brands of .22 Long Rifle ammo that has never failed to fire. CCI Stinger CCI Mini Mag Aguila Super Extra - all loads Federal AutoMatch I have had numerous FTF from bulk .22 ammo as well as, believe it or not, the supposed “cream of the crop” Eley Target and Match ammunition. If my wrist arthritis got to the point that I could not shoot a 9mm or .38 Spl CCW I would carry a .22 pistol. Probably a Ruger LCP II .22 LR along with the SD knife I always carry.

The headline should read “250 million escapees dressed in yellow and black striped prison garb are on the loose!” Gun sales would go up as most people only read headlines and move on.

While we’re on the subject of Cole Slaw I have a question. Why do restaurants, especially Bar-B-Que and Steak House restaurants offer cole slaw as a side then they give you a 1/4 cup full but if you order beans, fries, greens, or whatever you get a small bowl or small plate full? The same goes for regular restaurants when you order a meal that traditionally comes with cole slaw. You get this little 1/4 cup of cole slaw. Why is that? What I started doing is I ask them why they think their cole slaw is so exclusive that they can’t give me more with the meal that I am paying for. They usually ask if I want more and I tell them “Yes, but don’t bring me another thimble full.” Once, that backfired on me. I told them I wanted more before tasting the cole slaw and their cole slaw was full of sugar and it tasted weird. Now I sample then complain or ask for more. I am wondering if many people, like @Boggus Deal #64218 consider cole slaw to be garbage or they just don’t like it.

Happy Birthday Wallaby Jack! -
It looks like you have the correct fixin’s there. Bonus because I don’t see sugar or a mincer. BIG Thumbs Up! 3…2…1…

Rest in Peace, Ms Switt

Absolutely! Cole slaw is cabbage salad and salad is good for you. Just like potato salad and macaroni salad.
