I'm not sure that a +P+ rating is official SAAMI standard. Unless I'm mistaken, .38 Spl. and 9mm are the only calibers with that rating. .45 Colt standard is about 14,000 PSI, while +P is at about 15,000 PSI.
Any manufacturer rating their loads as +P+ is using their own recipe.
But they would be fine for your use.

I always get a kick of a Pickup Truck crossing in the background of the scene. Or a Styrofoam Cup of coffee. Usually set in 1879 or so. Like 1892 Winchesters and Colt SAA in 1867.

If I'm not mistaken, in "Tombstone", when they are making the trip from Tucson to Tombstone, an airplane can be seen.
Most of these anachronisms are hard to spot, being in the far background of a scene while you're watching the action down lower on the screen.

My first knife was a Boy Scout Knife given to me for Christmas when I was 10. I wasn't allowed to carry it to school, but if I wasn't AT school, it lived in my pocket. When I hit Jr. High, I started carrying it even at school, and have carried one with me everyday, (except at Marine Corps Boot Camp), ever since. Even today, the multi-blade knife is what I carry. Now it's a Victorinox Tinker.
Rule 9: Never go anywhere without a knife.

I dont remember anything being made of the Army's b'day, ever.
Maybe that's because nobody cares about the Army's birthday.
As for the Marine Birthday Ball, it's kind of like any other occasion that deserves a celebration, get as close as you can. It's not like you only have a Christmas party on Christmas.

Thank you. I knew I used to know it.
What scares me just a little is that I didn't even have to think about it, it was just right there.

NOOOoo! The idea is that you'll go there just to see what the $10 will get you, even though you KNOW that the answer is NOTHING. Once you're in, you look for SOMETHING so the trip isn't wasted.

Wow 28 to 65? That’s a huge spread, I guess the desert gets cold at night!
A 30 degree temperature spread is normal in the desert. Here in Tucson it was about 50 this morning. Todays high is supposed to be 84.
In the Summer, when our highs get to over 100, the morning temperatures are still 70s.

You don't have a disciple. You have people that watch to see what you're going to do next. You also have people, (Like me), that ask questions that seem to be something you would ask, and mention that so as not to take ALL the blame.

They ain’t likely to say that I was short of words, had stage fright, or didn’t have an opinion!
They’re probably gonna say that Widder was my friend and TW was kin to me…
Could be worse. They could say that ALPO was kin to you.

VERY COOL! That's something that makes me WANT to go to California. Not stay, but at least go visit.

I was vacuuming today, and thought about the scene in "Mrs. Doubtfire" where Robin Williams is doing the same thing while "Dude Looks Like a Lady" is playing. My dog was, as always running around trying to get away from the Vacuum Monster, when it occurred to me that if the family had had a dog, he NEVER could have gotten away with it because the dog would have recognized him IMMEDIATLY.

im on a soapbox here and ill get off , but its not too much to ask - where did the criminal get the gun and just what law might have prevented it ?
my contention is none of them , even if one might apply - they ignored it , you can only address crime after it occurs with these laws - lets look t the real poroblem - people - bad ones - lets figure out how to address that before we ban any more self protection in this country of freedom
Okay, your making sense here. We can't have any of that.
The simple fact is that the people that make these laws don't give a RIP about the criminals that use them. They DO care about whether the Law abiding citizen does. Because they're afraid that citizens might one day decide to take a stand. They want us disarmed so that it can't happen. Gun Control isn't about guns, it's about control.
Moderators, if I've done it again, feel free to delete my comment.

2 hours ago, watab kid said:huh . i like ya , and that aint sayin much , but if i outlive ya ill say it . that actually might be why i like ya ,
Thanks. I like most everybody here.
That still don't make me a nice guy. I CAN be a nice guy, and I even give people the benefit of a doubt when I meet them, but as often as not, they turn out to not deserve it, and that's when my Not Nice Guy comes into play.
Pretty much everybody here plays it straight, and those are the people I'm nice to. Within reason, of course.
