  1. They would have had at least two more touchdowns if the refs weren't going nuts with the flags. Seriously? The called Harrison for "tackling the quarterback with all his body weight." Now I know its a conspiracy. ;D
  2. 'nuff said. ;D
  3. I have no idea Wha-tha-F you two are talking about. Francho, you keep your 13' "rod in a tent" to yourself. Lay off the blue pills man...
  4. I too live in a relatively "crime free" neighborhood. Kids playing in the streets, people walking their dogs, etc. Earlier this week, two men broke into a home 1 block from my house. They shot a man while he was sleeping. No details released, but I assume some type of vendetta or drugs are involved. "Not in my neighborhood" doesn't really apply in today's America, unfortunately.

    Gen 4 Glocks have them now as well, although they are not easy to find around here. Easy grip thickness (backstrap) changes are becoming SOP with many of the new polymer guns.

    The XDM has interchangeable backstraps as well.
  7. Correct. Not to mention, Frog is child-free IIRC. Education is key.
  8. Well, I'm going tonight after I pick up the new couch. Grinnin' Grizzly is my absolute favorite. I will be taking my Growler with me tonight. Gotta have some good brew while watching the Steelers beat the crap out of the Raiders.
  9. I got one from the '09 KY Lake Roadtrip, but beyond that I am not aware of any. Some were made for a previous road trip as well, I believe.

  12. Props for drinking the PA swill!!! I love ABC. There is one near me with a restaurant attached to it. Every Thursday, we make our way over there. They have something called the Mug Club that we all joined about 5 years ago. They keep a personalized mug in the bar for you. In 5 years time, I have tried all their offerings. Personal favorites (I dont know how readily available they are away from our immediate area): Grinnin' Grizzly (November Specialty) Kipona Fest (August Specialty) Riverside Red (April Specialty) Zoigl Star (January Specialty) 666 (2009 winner of their "home brew" contest, has become a small batch production beer) Year-round favorites are the Susquehanna Stout and Pennypacker Porter If you get your hands on any of these, you will be pleased. If you NoVA fellas come up to fish sometime, we can hit up the restaurant. I can also bring some if we ever get a trip together. Just let me know.

    Bingo!! I explain that to a couple people each day working the gun counter. Next to no one anticipates rounds going through walls when they inevitably miss an internded target.
  14. Really? Let us know when you attempt to master the trouser trout. :-*
  15. The ones I have look like what is on the Megastrike website.
  16. Last time I checked: ~450 9mm ~500 .22lr ~1500 .22WMR (received after friend's father died) ~250 12g 100 20g (purchased by accident, in a hurry) 200 45ACP ~50 .40 ~60 30-06 ~100 30-30 ~50 .223 Sounds about right. Tell your anti-gun friend that you are not alone. ;D
  17. Indecent exposure (flashing) could land you state time. Pretty hefty price. ;D

    Check out the Ruger LCP before buying the Keltec for a CCW. I was set on a keltec until a buddy let me shoot the keltec and the LCP side by side. Just a suggestion. Been considering adding a Keltec to my group. Please let me know what you didn't like about it. Two of the guys in my hunting club drive for Brinks, so a good CCW is a must. They both own Keltec pistols and they love them. They are essentially the same gun along with the new Taurus 380. They are based off the Keltec (original design). The fit and finish of the LCP feels a little nicer, but it seems to have a longer trigger pull, IMO. Honestly, I wouldn't have a problem owning any of the three. There is that little difference to me. These are not designed to be 25yd pistols; more or less "belly guns" for when the poop hits the fan. While you can shoot them accurately at some distance, that is not their intended use and are designed as such. Again, all IMO.

    There are rifles that shoot pistol ammo, so that's not true. Yes, it is true. You have to be 21 to purchase pistol ammo. Jack, I have the PT145 and my wife carries the PT140 (hers has the stainless slide). I love my Taurus pistols, wouldnt trust my life with one if I wasn't confident with it. I also just put a Ruger GP100 on lay away at work. Will be picking it up in a week. Man, speedbead, that's a big gun for a woman. Packs a decent punch when you pull the trigger. My wife does not like the recoil, so we put a dainty .380 in her hand. Was not sure about it until i took it to the range. Really like the way it shoots. I also have the Springfield XD40, that i like. You ought to see her group center mass shots with that 40. Pops a head shot just to show off sometimes. My wife is a CO in a prison. Dainty she aint. ;D And OHIO, like Dan I work at an FFL dealer. Like he said, if I think you are there to buy PISTOL ammo then you won't be buying it. I would rather turn someone away than sell to an underage person.
  20. The nice thing about the bbz 6" is the fact that it's only 20 bucks. Buy two, they're cheap. If I had to pick just one, however, it would be the SS. More versatile, IMO.

  22. Happy bday Blaine.
  23. I hope Tom Brady falls down the stairs. He might, his foot has got to be bruised up and sore from kicking all that Steeler butt the other night. Oh yeah....nice job last night Redskins! ;D I hate you. ;D Friends and I are tailgating in the driveway for the Pitt/Oakland game. Shoot me a PM with your number so I can harass you while in a semi-conscious drunken state. ;D

  25. I'd say 15% are great, 50% are fine, and 35% absolutely suck. That's just in my limited experience. I would say those percentages apply to all people, everywhere. Remember, LEOs are people too and not immune to those percentages. Sorry you had a bad experience with one.
