Anything past medium rare is heresy.

No stickers no FB posts. Low profile in these days is good.

Welcome FloydieG. Like to hear your opinions of the different makes of 1911’s sometime. Not easy for some of us nonmetallurgists to discern what is really good versus what “looks” good.

And it won’t do one bit of good.

It is not law. It is a petition to put it on the ballot in Oregon. It was written by some religious “leaders” according to reports and is not currently before the Oregon legislature as a bill.

Hemi, here is one for you.

I agree, stopped at the one in north Madison last year. Wasn’t very good.

Run run run! And quit watching her on “Two and a half Men” reruns!

Welcome Jeremy! Much respect, doesn’t sound like you let anything stop you!

Ever heard of a barium enema? You are litterally crappin rocks for three days! And never mix up your pecker pills with the dogs thyroid medication. All you want to do is lick your privates and you can’t walk past a fire hydrant.

There is no perfect round for all applications and all rifles. They are like boats. A series of compromises. You need to experiment to find what fits your rifle and your needs the best. Any experienced shooter would know this.

Don"t get me wrong I love all my 1911's. But none of them hold 16 rounds of 45 acp

Love my FNX even though its not the tactical. I have the threaded barrel and night sights. Never jams, eats any kind of ammo, quiet with a can on it. I gotta say I would give up my 1911’s before I would give up my FNX.

I have lost two friends through the ice in the last five years. And almost lost my neighbor. All experienced outdoorsmen and ice fishermen. Same thing in all three cases. Familiarity breeds over confidence. You have your float coat and picks of life, but you leave them in your Clam and check out another spot on your snowmobile. Or you take a short cut in your SUV too near the underwater spring and don't notice the red flags. Or you go out on six inches of porous popcorn ice the last weekend of March. It is nothing to fool with, especially on big lakes with currents.

I got it as well.

Roomba claims another pet gerbil.

Oh you got me! Didn’t even notice I gave you the opening.

Go out of town a couple of days and miss the fireworks. Like looking at every one’s wood builds, though. I am definitely going to “woody”my AR10B rifle this year.

The Battle of the Coral Sea stopped the Japanes Invasion plans for Austrailia and stopped their momentum. It was considered a draw as both sides lost two carriers. But the Allies could replace them much faster than the Japanese. It was the beginning of the turning point in the Pacific War. An awesome point of history.

And good prices!

This sounds like what I am talking about. It is almost orange and a very white stringy wood like beech.

Saw a recent CMP parts built M1 Garand for sale at an LGS. The action and barrel looked great, but the stock was truly disappointing. As best I could tell, it was a soft wood, like white pine, and had a reddish flat stain applied that left it with a cheapo looking feel to it. It had a nick in the pistol grip that had exposed bare white wood, so that stain hadn't penetrated very deeply. At the price that was being asked, I would have expected better. Wouldn't consider buying it unless I had the budget to replace that stock with something better. Anybody else seen this with them?

Mr Mac, like to hear more about your M1A impressions. Glad your finally getting a chance to use it!
