Sgt. C.J. Sabre, SASS #46770

Well, you know yourself better than the rest of us.

Not having anything to do with this thread, but I've found some REALLY good deals on Gunbroker occasionally. The Cimarron Tombstone Special I got recently only cost me $400, including shipping AND FFL fee. They normally sell for $800- $900 or more, and the lowest I EVER saw was at a gunshow where a guy was selling his for $500, and that was several years ago.

I suppose if you're someplace where a real gun can't be carried, or you don't really want to hurt somebody, it'd be okay. But if it gets far enough that I have to shoot, I want to be as sure as I can of two things, (1) When he goes down he's going to STAY down, (2) I'd rather he not be able to testify against me. If it's my word against his, I don't want his confusing things.

Been a spell since we had a story told here. Well done. Nice little guns too.

One of my Gym T-shirts. (No, I don't make it look that good.)

Whoops! There's my Old Timers kicking in again. Went back and fixed it. Thanks Pat.

I have a similar knife to this one, except the grip is blackened, that rides in a boot sheath. It's made by Frost Cutlery with the brand name Chipaway. It's nothing great, but it serves the purpose. And I have one something like this one that sometimes rides on my belt. Frost makes cheap knives, but just as an accoutrement they're fine. As for making a sheath, yes, it's about as easy as any leather project you can do.

Taurus GX2 9mm, about $300 Ruger PC Carbine 9mm, about $500 Mossberg Maverick 12ga., about $300 Cheap kydex holster, about $30 That's $1130, so $370 , $70 for ammo. So yeah, if you're not looking for expensive stuff, you could do it. IF you shop the right places. I'm a dumbass. Pat Riot pointed out that it's $1200. So, maybe not. But you could still get some ammo. $70 will still get a couple boxes of 9mm and a box of 12ga.

In the same light...

I know that this won't help much, but I don't have that problem because I don't HAVE a cat.

As somebody once said, "It's not what don't you know that gets you in trouble, it's what you know that ain't so."

Well, we didn't know that you are on it, until NOW.

Unfortunately that's no longer the case for many series. The major networks, (ABC, NBC, CBS, and sometimes CW) still do that for their more popular shows, but one that's not so popular, or is a newer show, might only get 12 episodes. Maybe stretched to 18 IF they think it might be going somewhere. But smaller networks seem to usually only have 10 episodes a season. Sometimes they might do 2 "seasons" a year, but that's rarer. Back in the '60s, most series had first run episodes in the mid 30s.

The submachine gun guys are required to fire from the hip, with full magazine bursts, while the Good Guys use their sights and make center mass or head shots, unless the bad guy needs to survive long enough to either reveal vital information to stop the Threat, or just to Troll them.

There's an app for that.

My friend Mark and I were watching "Magnum Force" in the theater. When David Soul first pulled his Colt Python, I leaned over to Mark and said, "I want one of those!" He just smiled, because he already had a Model 29 from "Dirty Harry", and a Walther P-38 from "The Man from Uncle". Have you been watching Hickok45? He asked the same question about a week ago.

Coming from you, this is not surprising in the least. But I do the same thing. There was a recent thread on fireflies, the first thing I thought was,

I'm hardly claiming to be an English Writing student. But many of the errors listed should not be happening to those of even moderate intelligence or education. And I'm with Blackwater. If you look, you'll find MANY of my posts have been edited, usually because I hit "Submit Reply" too quickly, and THEN see where I screwed something up.

I have the same problem. My fingers are too big for the keys. BUT, since my computer has "Spell Check" I see a problem when it happens and can correct it.

I was going to to just hit the "like" heart, but wanted to agree so much more than that would show. I have the same disdain for the excuses, and the same non-issue with "otto", and for the same reason. (Flame suit on).

I have a really hard time because recipes seem to usually start with, "Take a clean dish..."

Agreed. Misspelled words like that annoy me for more than punctuation. Advice and advise, to, too, and two, whether and weather, etc. I'm hardly a spelling nazi, but sometimes it's just plain bad usage.

I recently picked up an old High Standard Sentinel. 9 shot .22, DA. I just got that wild hair, saw it on Gunbroker and had to have it. It looked like crap in the pictures, but it turned out that somebody had wrapped it in clear packaging tape, and underneath that it was in very good shape for a gun made maybe in the 80s, if not earlier.

I do. Sometimes I'll shoot my .45s, other times .38s. A couple weeks ago I paired a .22 with a .44.

I'm not paranoid. He pulls his gun, I pull mine.
