I've only got one N Frame, a 625, but it has Herrett Shooting Star grips on it. Those things fit my hand like they were custom made for me.

We got one of those Cobra camera systems about ten years back. Today, it decided to stop recording. Notice says No HDD. I fiddled with it for an hour or better with no luck. Rebooted, reset, even went so far as to consult the manual. No joy. Did the thing just crap out on me? Any ideas?

Ice cream place we used to go to, (I can't remember the name it's been so long), you could order an Upside down Banana Split. The banana was still slices, but the sliced were stood up in a cup, the ice cream in the middle, and the toppings on top of that.

"The US is about to hit Iran hard, possibly igniting a regional Middle East war. The Taliban (also AQ) last week have indicated their support for IRAN by striking here in the US. I would say these are some red flags on the timeline. It's anyone's guess."
Well, we're nearly two weeks into Epic Fury, and they haven't hit yet. Maybe this guy is overestimating the threat. Does that mean we can relax? No. But this guy just might be blowing his own horn a bit loud.
I'm still going to Carry, and watch my six, but I'm not going tp get paranoid about it.

In they correct order?
I never saw it on television, but my understanding is they did not show them in the order they were shot. They did not show them in the order they were supposed to be shown.
2 minutes ago, Chief Rick said:That is correct.
Not only not in the correct order but they would cancel a showing (preempt) for other shows at the last minute.
And they never even showed the last three episodes.

It was Fox that did them bad.

I'm just guessing here, but I think that it might be a gathering at a Sci Fi Convention. The problem with rebooting the show, is that Disney owns it now. If Disney were to produce it, Mal would be a buffoon, Zoe would be the Boss Bi..h, and probably sleeping with Anora. Jayne would be a flaming gay, probably sleeping with Simon. That just leaves Kayle and River, and who knows what they'd be up to.

I’m curious, why isn’t Natural gas or oil an option?
If his system is like mine, it's an all electric system. He'd have to run new lines etc. to use gas or oil.
Now my system has "Emergency Heat" for if the Heat Pump can't keep up. It's like an internal space heater. I haven't had to use it, (I don't think that we even got to freezing this Winter), but when the system was being installed, during testing they got WARM. I don't know if it's something that Chantry could add to his system though.

If you're talking about the Kohl's mom, then no. There's just something about her that doesn't sit right with me.

And Nolan asked his TO, "do we arrest - HIM - too? That might be 'false imprisonment'." And she says they will treat that as a citizen's arrest and it'll be fine.
That would be different than just leaving him tied up on the street and telling the Police that he's there.
-
I don't think that it would work out here either. We tell stories like those as a fantasy. I think that a masked vigilante would be treated the way that the police initially treat them in the movies.
For starters, say a masked vigilante catches a Bad Guy in the commission of a crime. He can't just tie him up and leave him for the police. There's no evidence that would stick. Not enough to go to Trial anyway. In the movies, T.V. and comics, the story ends when the Hero stops the Bad Guy. In real life, that's just the beginning.
And say the Hero does just leave the Bad Guy for the police. The Bad Guy could sue for false imprisonment.
Standing up for ourselves and killing a Bad Guy, IN SELF DEFENCE, is one thing. Chasing him down and killing him, whatever the reason, is something else entirely.

Found a couple on Amazon that look like they might do.

I've watched the show since the beginning. I've wondered the same thing. I've thought that because of what he does, he might be licensed as a Bounty Hunter. They can do many thing the rest of us can't, and can even side step some legal hurdles.
A Bounty Hunter can break into a house if he thinks that his fugitive is in there, or even if he thinks that someone in there has information about them.
I don't remember everything that they can do, it's been a long time since I gave it any thought. I don't know how carrying a gun is affected.
But let's face it, it's fiction, and T.V. fiction at that.

Where did they think 10 rifles and 1000 rounds is a massive arsenal? Am I in trouble. LOL I have 9 guns just for SASS and a whole bunch more for my pleasure and self defense with unknown number of rounds.h

The people that report these things are not people that shoot. They're the people, or are related to or married to the people that are trying to take our guns away. Because they're SCARY!! They're more than happy to have armed guards protecting them, as they have People to do everything else for them too while leaving us on our own.

When I was in elementry school we lived for several months in California and then New York State while my dad was training on new computer systems with IBM. In both cases people there said I had a Texas accent (which is were we lived permanently). But when we moved back to Texas each time folks there said I had picked up the accent from California/New York. Eventually those went away and I talking like a Texan again.
I spent a total of 8 years in North Carolina, and 2 years in Georgia during my Misspent Youth as a Marine. Any time I went back to Ohio they said I talked like a Southerner. Even today, I still have just a bit of a Southern accent. And I tend to talk like a Redneck anyway, since at heart a AM a Redneck.

Based on statistics of immigrant, (legal), families, the parents tend to speak their native language unless they are adamant about assimilation. Many European families that came to this country after WWII were like this. They WANTED to be Americans.
But, in most families, the parents speak their native tongue. Their children tend toward being bilingual. The grandchildren tend to speak the predominant language of the country they're in.

Best proposal I’ve heard in years is to split the difference between DST and standard time and leave it there.
clocks to slide forward a half hour from where they are now, and for the twice-annual clock changes to end.Which would take the rest of the world out of sync with us. International Business would go nuts.

As long as they don't unbalance our universe, I'm good with both of them, but I don't know that I'd say EITHER of them is balanced.

Compared to THOSE two, yeah. Compared to the rest of the world, maybe not. Maybe Alpo's right, (DON'T tell him I said that), they balance each OTHER out.

Sort of a Yin and Yang sort of thing. 'Taint good nor bad, it just is!

I don't know... I think that Alpo and Subdeacon Joe might be polar opposites, Alpo asks questions nobody else does, Joe answers questions nobody asked.

Smith & Wesson N frames
in SASS Wire Saloon
Posted
I bought them used. Back in their heyday, (1970s and '80s), they had a line of premade grips available for the bigger gunmakers. I bought my first set for a Ruger Security Six. Later, I added a set to a Colt Python. Both felt like they were custom made for me, but were their factory standard. At that same time, you could send in a tracing and they'd make you a custom set. I never did because their standard grips fit me fine.
