Not sure why it was pulled. I saw your Howard the Duck comment and agree it was a pretty entertaining movie. Yours was the last comment I saw so I have no idea what got it yanked.
Maybe you should have added a shot of the lovely Lea Thompson with your post?- 2

That's not a wreckin' machine.
It's a reckon machine. Like, "what you reckon 14 divided by 2 is?" So you pull out your reckon machine and discover it's 7.
I prefer it my way.

I did a report on her in High School.
How did you change the font in your header? I didn’t think that was possible.

As @Alposaid. It’s been this way for a while.
What happened Kit, did you finally clean your eyeglasses?- 3

If I still lived in CA I would take my wife to see this. She loves rodeos.

I can’t even think of any movie or TV series gun that I would pay anything over market value for.

I’d have to have been pretty drunk to be seen carrying a briefcase with whiskey and glasses in it. No self respecting drunk carries glasses around nor a briefcase.

The closest “licensed” gunsmith to me is 32 miles. Oddly enough the second closest is like 32.5 miles. One is south of me and one is north.
I was in a gun store in Fairmont one day and asked if they had a gunsmith they could recommend. The counter guy says “What do you need a gunsmith for?”
I told him “Just for general things. I haven’t encountered any gunsmithing shops here.”He said “If you need something done just let us know. We have people that can pretty much do anything you need around here.”
”Are they licensed gunsmiths?”
”Awe, you don’t need a license to be a gunsmith around here.” Then he winked at me.
“Are any of them named Bubba?”All 4 of the guys behind the counter laughed. The guy I was talking to said “If you need something done just let us know.” with a smile.
Not a real confidence builder, in my book.- 1

A Pentel mechanical pencil is one tough piece of plastic with a metal point at the end. I have driven them into 2x4s numerous time before breaking them. I have penetrated pine 2x4s at least an inch into the board. They can take 5 or 6 forceful stabs before starting to break apart. I know no human that’s as tough as lumber.
When I fly I have at least 3 of them on me. If you buy 2 or 3 sizes it makes them appear totally legit. By sizes I mean the lead diameter.
You can get a set of 4 for $20 on Amazon.
https://a.co/d/iLLzzJvOnly one TSA agent asked about my pencils in 30 years of flying.
He said “You sure have a lot of these pencils. Why do you need so many?I said “I use them for my work and I am an avid crossword puzzler.” It helps to have a book of crosswords in your luggage as well.
He smiled and said “Makes sense. Have a nice trip.”Never had a problem with courthouse or any other government agency that checks bags and such either.

Father Kit, after thinking about it and looking at mine I think @Wild Eagleis correct. A sight made for a pistol will put the red or green dot lower to the bore.
That rail on the 22/45 is for a scope not necessarily for an RDS.
Have you considered a standard 22/45?It would save you a couple of hundred bucks and then you could get an RDS mount and the Holosun pistol optic…maybe. Or perhaps another mentioned in this thread.
Here’s a mount for the standard 22/45.

Microphone question
in SASS Wire Saloon
Posted
What he said ^^^^
In the 80’s I ran sound for bands. One band in particular had a lead female singer that insisted on a unidirectional mike and no foam cover - also a spit guard. But this chick could not keep her mike aimed correctly when she took it in hand and she darn near put the thing in her mouth. Then, of course, she blamed the sound man, me, when she didn’t sound right.
My cure? I popped the cable out of her monitor so she couldn’t hear herself. Oddly enough she sang and handled the mike just fine when she couldn’t hear herself.
I was released as their sound man when I told her what she could do with her mike after she b****ed about her mike smelling bad.
I said It’s your fault the mike smells bad. You keep spitting on it without a shield.”
She called me an “incompetent mother……”
I told her to shove her mike up her (butt) then maybe it would smell better.
Sorry for the ricochet.
