telluwhat

WOW did you see how fast full auto emptied the drum? OMG

Oh man. You didn't ah haha <lmao>. <munch>

Just some southern hospitality there now tell you what. LOL my bad :cookoo:

I am used to it as my Mossy 500 has the same safety. I think there is a button near the trigger to indicate if it is loaded - not entirely sure about that, it is not a safety. Maybe someone can elaborate on this for me.

Welcome

Very interesting :-) makes me like it even more. <thumbsup>

I am excited. It looks like I am going to be getting a Mossberg 930 SPX Blackwater home defense shotgun. I gathered up some local prices and then mailed the shop that I wanted to buy from, asking him to give me his best OTD price. He beat the others by nearly $100.00! It will be about two more weeks before I have the $ to pay him but I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas to open gifts. I already have a Mossberg 500 A but it is more for hunting. Has the long barrel and full choke and kicks like a mule but shoots a tight group. That one works good for hunting but the long barrel isn't the best for home defense / fighting in close quarters. One of the things the SPX has me pumped about is that it is a semi-automatic, short 18.5" barrel and holds 8 shells (7 if they are 3" shells). Hot dog I can't wait :-)

I sure wasn't expecting to read this today. LOL thanks for the grins, sorry for your pains.

On Saturday my wife & I did take the CCW class. Generally speaking it covered about the same as everyone else. My instructor was very good and he injected humor to keep everyone tuned in. The class started at 8 am and covered a long list of stuff, we finished up around 6 or just after. The class is required to last a minimum of 8 hours. The instructor had several power point presentations and videos for us to watch & interact with and had a large screen projector. He also had several firearms out for us to view and they were also used in the class as props. I sure am glad to have this instructor as he is very knowledgeable of the laws and also "do's and don'ts" and "should", even though you could legally do something else. Which was to keep a person from having to deal with the headache that would likely follow. in short, don't use a gun unless it is the last resort or if your life or someone else is about to be extinguished. Better to avoid a confrontation if you can. Then it was written test time followed shortly after by the range. Everyone did great on the written test. We fired 10 rounds at 3, 7, & 10 yards. You had to score 21 shots out of 30 to pass. um basically had to hit the black and not the white 21 times. LOL it would be hard not to pass. My lowest hit on the target was in ring 8. The marks to the left, on the last ring and edge of the black were from something coming from behind the target after my 3rd shot. I don't know if it was wood or lead or just what did it? They were not directly from a round but were a after effect of one. <dontknow> either way I passed with a 30. I need more practice to get my grouping tighter and a little higher but it would still hurt a "bad guy". I did enjoy the class but it was hard for me to sit for so long in the chair with my siatic nerve problem, I also had to shoot last because of my lung disease, I am unable to spend too much time in hot, humid air or I would have very serious medical problems. I am glad he worked with me on that. <thumbsup> Now in about 2 weeks I am going to go to the sheriffs office and apply for my concealed permit. I am still looking for a new pistol for carry. I like the FN seven five but have not yet held one. I am "window shopping" on line right now. It should not be long before I can go see the real thing. ;D

"Walkers!"

It is insane. The things people will do to themselves and others. I did some stupid stuff as a kid but I was not anyplace like this. Dang. I thought I was bad stealing a freinds moms cigs and my girl friends dads playboys. Different worlds. Different universe.

What limited I know about our instructor is that he is a former detective for a local city and now works at Duke Energy. He is well known and liked in the community. His price for the class is very low (compared to some others in the area) @ $60 per. I can't wait to take the class. It may be late summer before I can pay the Sheriff his cut for the actual permit for each of us. The wife will get hers first.

It is official. My wife and I will be taking our CCW class. ;D The appointment is made. It is an 8 hour class with 10 shots at each of 3 distances; 3, 5 & 7 yards. I can't wait but wonder what we will talk about for 8 hours?

This is some crazy stuff. How are these bath salts different from epsome salt or scented beads?

When I read this my first thought was that someone "in the loop" was not making the $, so they had the ruling made to keep the $ in their cow so they can continue to milk it. Sad.

And I was waiting for a punch line.....

I sure am thankful for this site and the work you have put in. I can not imagine the time and cash it takes. I used to build and work on PC but I have only limited server experiance. Now I have to reinvent myself.

I understand that. Before my disabling injury I barely even got to check my email. Now all I can do is watch TV, Netflix or internet. It sucks to say the least. Can't even cut my own lawn anymore.

I did a search on FB and did find a page for 308AR.com so I am wondering if it is managed by this site? <dontknow> there are a bunch of gun and pro gun FB pages it would be cool if this community was there to help pull in new members here.

So will more of the 308 drum be made? I would like one but I have to wait a few months.... bummer

Had to share.

The following copied from http://www.reagancoalition.com/articles/2012/20120507008-dhs-informant-civil-war.html DHS Informant: We Are Preparing for Massive Civil War Private Investigator Doug Hagmann said reliable sources told him that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) was preparing for "massive civil war" in America. This was all in a radio interview on TruNews from May 2, 2012. “Folks, we’re getting ready for one massive economic collapse,” “We have problems . . . The federal government is preparing for civil uprising,” he added, “so every time you hear about troop movements, every time you hear about movements of military equipment, the militarization of the police, the buying of the ammunition, all of this is . . . they (DHS) are preparing for a massive uprising." “It’s going to get so much worse toward the election, and I’m not even sure we’re going to have an election in this country. It’s going to be that bad, and this, as well, is coming from my sources. But one source in particular said, ‘look, you don’t understand how bad it is.’ This stuff is real; these people, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), they are ready to fight the American people.” “What they [DHS] are expecting, and again, this is according to my sources, what they’re expecting is the un-sustainability of the American dollar,” Hagmann said. “And we know for a fact that we can no longer service our debt. There’s going to be a period of hyperinflation . . . the dollar will be worthless . . . The economic collapse will be so severe, people won’t be ready for this.”

I used to say something similar to my old boss, LOL. It was almost the exact same as the commercial. "We work hard so you don't have to." <thumbsup> <lmao>

And so it now is. Iwish I had that on a bumper sticker <laughs>

Sorry NoFail. I know what it is like. My situation is much different but the loss of income is the same. Obama is like scubbing bubbles - working hard that you won't be able to. Yeah I changed the slogan a little to fit better.
