  1. And after a merge you can’t copy and paste pictures again until you leave the thread then return.
  2. This merging bull sh** is aggravating
  3. Boy, someone is truly naive…or just plain stupid.
  4. Good Morning…Where’s my alfalfa treats?
  5. Bravo Doc! Bravo! I have often wondered why gun companies continue to do business in California or why they don’t restrict law enforcement contracts to the guns on CA’s Roster of “safe” handguns. The dollar speaks louder than two-faced blather, I’m sure. I avoid anti-2A states *when I can. My wife thought I was a little nutty, but now she sees my reasoning behind it. I refuse to spend money in them if I do pass through them. * I am going to CA this week. We are driving my Mazda MX-5 Miata cross country. (Hey @Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 I finally get to do it!!!) My Grandson graduates High School next week. The course that takes us the least amount of miles goes through Illinois. Screw ‘dat noise! That trip would be 2,426 miles. For the first leg we are traveling SSW to Knoxville, TN then cross country on I-40. It adds 100 miles and a little time, but that’s okay. I do the same type of thing with Maryland. I will take large detours to avoid Maryland when going East in WV or going to VA. If I did not have to go to CA, I would not. I despise that state.
  6. I would buy this mat just for the tag.
  7. I don’t blame you. Nor do I blame Marshal’s friends for leaving. I am surprised they stayed this long.
  8. Take their place. Move there, get your business license and FFL and weather the storm. It’ll be easy. You’ll have minimal competition.
  9. This is funny because if I saw these prices in their shop I know they would remember me later…probably for ever.
  10. I’ll bet a bus would make a great bridge. Just cut the body off, front and rear and expose the frame ends. Imbed the frame rails in a concrete abutment and you have a bridge for light vehicles.
  11. Mike Venturino’s articles and books got me interested in Cowboy guns and eventually joining SASS. I have learned so much from him through his articles, books and nowadays the internet. I used to have a Marlin 336 Cowboy in 38-55. His reload information helped me create hand loads that were so accurate from that gun that if I rested it I could get 5 shots into a little circle that you could cover it, well most of it, with a quarter at 100 yards and the factory buckhorn sights. In truth I only pulled that off once. Most of the time 5 shots would be a 1 1/2”-2” group. Freehand standing I could hit a 4x6 inch steel block every shot. I still kick myself for selling that gun. My point is, I am sure that without Mike’s articles and tables I may not have ever seen that kind of accuracy from that gun and I had a great time doing it. The same goes for his info on Cowboy handgun loads. I derived so much fun and enjoyment just by reading and following his advice. I am pretty sure I cannot say that about any other gun writer. I have always hoped to meet Mike one day. Maybe it can still happen. I hope and pray. Thank you Mike Venturino. Thank you.
  12. A properly placed improvised device and a set of tools and “WALLAH!!!” I got me a Gatling gun! If our gov’t installed these within a short time I would be labeled a vandal and a thief…if they ever caught me. I ain’t kiddin’ neither!
  13. My 3rd grade teacher, Mrs. Lively, told us “Ain’t ain’t a word.” Then she told us that ain’t was a contraction of “are not”. I remember asking “If I say to someone ‘I ain’t going’ should I change that to ‘I are not going’? That doesn’t sound right.” She then said it could be ‘are not’ or ‘am not’. I am not sure why I remember that so well. More info: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/ain't
