  1. I picked up this STI Trojan in 40 S&W recently for $800 with 3 Cobramag 10 rnd mags (damn things are $40 apiece) and the factory 8 rnd mag. I've been wanting a .40 1911 for quite a while and came across this deal so I jumped on it. Rob, I'm sure you'll appreciate the red trigger and Dymondwood grips I added. I've had that trigger stashed away for about 3 years just waiting for this gun!
  2. There's always a plethora of guns at the fall shoot. As long as you bring your trigger finger you'll be good to go. Ya'll notice how I got that word 'plethora' in there!
  3. Here's another one bailing on Dick's; https://www.americanrifleman.org/articles/2018/5/9/hi-point-firearms-inland-mfg-cease-sales-to-dicks-sporting-goods/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=insider&utm_campaign=0518
  4. I'm good for the 20th.
  5. I'll take an XD over a Glock any day. I got a Glock 21 for free (won another gun raffle back in October) and sold it within a month unfired. I hate the Glock grip angle!
  6. Damn, she's a cutie!
  7. Niiiiice!!!!!!!!!!!
  8. One of those folks would be me. THAT was some exhilarating schit!
  9. Kiwi pretty much nailed it on the stainless properties. I used to do a lot of hand checkered frontstraps on 1911's and a 30 lpi checkering file would last through eight or ten carbon steel receivers easily but 3 or 4 stainless receivers would ruin a file. The best word I know to describe stainless steel is 'gummy'! Stainless steel is carbon steel with chromium added to it to create the stainless properties. There are different grades of stainless with some grades having enough chromium in the mix that the metal won't attract a magnet!
  10. We have a Want to Buy section! Just sayin!
  11. Josh was a catcher from about age ten all the way through senior league (16?) He ALWAYS wore a cup and it never slowed him down, kid caught more pop flies than any other catcher in the league. I found out why he did that the day I helped out at practice and did a bit of catching! I missed a low one and that was the end of my aspirations of being a catcher!?
  12. As some of the companies that decided to boycott the NRA have found out, this schit works both ways! I'll spend double at a pro 2ndA company for something before I put a dime in the pockets of ANY company trying to undermine my rights!
  13. We have the same situation here in New Mexico, our schitholes are called Santa Fe and Albuquerque!
  14. You know that article is 5 years old? I'm damn glad that my move to Arizona is in the works though!
  15. I loose it if I get hit anywhere on the head. A couple of my patrolmen from back in the day could tell you stories!
  16. If you're running evaporative cooling in one part of the house and refrigerated air in another part and the two areas aren't kept completely separated from each other you have one system fighting against the other. The refrigerated system pulls moisture out of the air and the evaporative cooling uses moisture in the air to cool it. Anytime the two areas are open to each other each system is playing havoc with the efficiency of the other system.
  17. GENESEO, IL, (05/03/18) – Springfield Armory is severing ties with Dick’s Sporting Goods and its subsidiary, Field & Stream, in response to their hiring a group for anti-Second Amendment lobbying. This latest action follows Dick’s Sporting Goods’ decision to remove and destroy all modern sporting rifles (MSR) from their inventory. In addition, they have denied Second Amendment rights to Americans under the age of 21. We at Springfield Armory believe that all law abiding American citizens of adult age are guaranteed this sacred right under our Constitution. It is clear where Dick’s Sporting Goods and its subsidiary, Field & Stream, stand on the Second Amendment, and we want to be clear about our message in response. Their position runs counter to what we stand for as a company. At Springfield Armory, we believe in the right and principles fought for and secured by American patriots and our founding forefathers, without question. We will not accept Dick’s Sporting Goods’ continued attempts to deny Second Amendment freedoms to our fellow Americans.
  18. Texans have a name for guns like that, barbecue guns!
  19. I am deeply offended to hear this sort of thing from one of my brothers in blue!
  20. Third it! I've bought from George too!
  21. I bought a Red Ryder BB gun for my grandson (who is not even two yet) a few months ago. I told my son I got it for the grandson and he said "Dad, he's not even two yet!" I told him "Well, by the time he's five or six he may not be able to get one!" Josh said "I hadn't thought of that!" I taught all 6 of my kids (and a few grandkids) gun safety and how to shoot at a young age including the girls. Every one of them to this day know how to safely handle a gun and how to defend themselves and their loved ones with one! Five of my six kids can legally carry concealed and four of them do so on a regular basis. Wouldn't you know it, none of them have shot up a school, waffle house or any other place! Just boggles my mind!
  22. Haha! YOU LOOK LIKE A BABY! Nom, nom!
  23. I've never seen a 30 round 308 mag, DPMS or Magpul or anyone else. Is that a typo? If not, I'd like to know where to find these.
