Old School

OMG I never knew!!!!!!!!! Those bastards...

Mark, I can believe you're so harsh.......... The thing I'm pissed about is I didn't get an invitation to the wedding.

Agreed- If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem.

Israel is our only true ally in the Middle East and share intel with us, also does things the the USA can't do for one reason or another. Yes it costs us money but, I for one, think it's worth it. BTW I'm not Jewish just a mongrel American

I don't know if that is necessarily true. I consider myself a "Social Conservative and Libertarian" I'm the last one impose my beliefs on others. I just feel I need to stand my ground on some issues. Being a "grassroots" organization you will get some factions of the Tea Party that go off on a tangent.

Not that much heavier, and throw off heat better and tend to be a little more accurate,

Follow Paul's directions exactly. I'm in Oak Ridge if you want me to inspect it and run through the assembly/ dissassembly procedure with you.

Thanks Mike- Knowing you, this is a review I can trust. I know your values and share many of them. You should get a commission from Ruger because I'll be buying one. My GLOCK is just too Fukin wide. Just keep shooting it as I'd like to believe it is reliability I can put my life on. Mike- Magazine safety?- What's the deal? Is it suitable for removal? Does it have a firing pin safety? I would guess it semi-cocks on the slide being retracted and completes the process upon pulling the trigger. I'd love to see it field stipped.

We'll work on that...

And archery?

As far as a lower goes you can buy an assembled lower for $250 or a little less.

What I have seen done is taking a block of aluminum and attaching it to the bottom of the follower in a permanent fashion. Such as permanently riviting it or screw and weld/high temp silver solder. Legality? Sounds permanent to me... But, I ain't the law...

Guys I have not followed or read every post. Just let me throw something out there. If you are using mixed cases or range brass and you have your crimp set on a standard length or shorter case and then encounter a longer than normal case. You may bulge a case,

Wear water proof boots. You'll need them when changing targets.

Trash the vise-grips. Get a good roll of blue painters tape and put three layers on the area to be protected. also get a razor blade to help you insert the hinge pin detent.

Ray- I don't know whose stuff you've been shooting but reloads are not bad.

Hey Handsome-- If you want to borrow my 38spl dies for a while, grab them.

I just used one of their MEO kits. Trigger wasn't "That" bad, parts seemed spec and settled in their lower well. The grip was a little tighter than I like but OK. Springs weren't brittle like I've found on DPMS and the trigger was certainly better than DPMS w/ less over travel.

Eric- I used to think I would loose precision with a progressive press, but not so... Just exercise good quality control and it's better than Factory stuff.

+1 You're a wise man Matt. Anyway if you use the propper powder a double charge will spill over the top or fill the case which will prevent you from loading a bullet. What do you say about that Matt?

Couple of you guys have small weiners.... Noob- Bird or Buckshot no sights just use front bead. Slugs.. You need sights. I've probably got 500 rounds of slugs fired to date.

As some of you know I have a couple of business accounts set up w/ parts and accessory distributors. And, I was extending these discounts to competitive shooters. Well I can extend any discounts I get to NJ2AS members as well. I really like the new cards Frank has sent out and would like to see yours.

+1

I'm very happy you are satisfied with you GLOCKs. Me... I only rely on stock from the box GLOCKs for defense purposes. Just me. Yes, I whore over my range/target guns.

If considering a compound bow, the bow you select means alot and how well it is set-up also. Anyone interested in bows should go here and read...http://www.huntersfriend.com/ I shoot a Parker Legend XP w/ EZ Cams. It is parralel limbs, draws easy, and is light to hold at full draw and very little shock upon release. It suits me well and was set-up by a proshop.Excellent for a beginner or old guy. But you have to read esspecially if you are buying a used bow. What is good for Rambo may not be good for someone starting out. And if a bow is not set-up properly you can be very frustrated. All this stuff doesn't come cheap. I have about a grand invested in archery stuff. But my shots are predictable and I kill a few deer every year. Last year, set up as I am, I held at full draw for about 30 seconds until I got the shot I wanted. And Most important! Please!!! If you are going to hunt, study deer anatomy. It's available on the net. Deer have great lung capacity and large lungs. So, guess where you want to shoot. Look at where the clavical is, it's very deciving. Anybody that's local can fling some arrow in my yard or we can meet at CR as their range is decent.
