i started crying i was laughing so hard lol

100% worth the read you wont be able not to laugh i promise I went to Home Depot recently while not being altogether sure that course of action was a wise one. You see, the previous evening I had prepared and consumed a massive quantity of my patented 'you're definitely going to **** yourself' road-kill chili. Tasty stuff, although hot to the point of being painful, which comes with a written guarantee from me that if you eat it, the next day both of your butt cheeks WILL fall off. Here's the thing.. I had awakened that morning, and even after two cups of coffee (and all of you know what I mean) nothing happened. No 'Watson's Movement. Despite the chilies swimming their way through my intestinal tract, I was unable to create the usual morning symphony referred to by my dear wife as 'thunder and lightning'. Knowing that a time of reckoning HAD to come, yet not sure of just when, I bravely set off for Home Depot, my quest being paint and supplies to refinish the deck. Upon entering the store at first all seemed normal. I selected a cart and began pushing it about dropping items in for purchase. It wasn't until I was at the opposite end of the store from the toilets that the pain hit me. Oh, don't look at me like you don't know what I'm talking about. I'm referring to that 'Uh, Oh, ****, gotta go' pain that always seems to hit us at the wrong time. The thing is, this pain was different. The chilies from the night before were staging a revolt. In a mad rush for freedom they bullied their way through the small intestines, forcing their way into the large intestines, and before I could take one step in the direction of the toilets which would bring sweet relief, it happened. The chilies fired a warning shot. There I stood, alone in the paint and stain section, suddenly enveloped in a toxic cloud the likes of which has never before been recorded. I was afraid to move for fear that more of this vile odor might escape me. Slowly, oh so slowly, the pressure seemed to leave the lower part of my body, and I began to move up the aisle and out of it, just as a orange aproned paint specialist turned the corner and asked if I needed any help. I don't know what made me do it, but I stopped to see what his reaction would be to the toxic non-visible fog that refused to dissipate.. Have you ever been torn in two different directions emotionally? Here's what I mean, and I'm sure some of you at least will be able to relate. I could've warned that poor clerk, but didn't. I simply watched as he walked into an invisible, and apparently indestructible, wall of odor so terrible that all he could do before gathering his senses and running, was to stand there blinking and waving his arms about his head as though trying to ward off angry bees. This, of course, made me feel terrible, but then made me laugh. .......BIG mistake!!!!! Here's the thing. When you laugh, it's hard to keep things 'clamped down', if you know what I mean. With each new guffaw an explosive issue burst forth from my nether region. Some were so loud and echoing that I was later told a few folks in other aisles had ducked, fearing that someone was robbing the store and firing off a shotgun. Suddenly things were no longer funny. 'It' was coming, and I raced off through the store towards the toilet, laying down a cloud the whole way, praying that I'd make it before the grand explosion took place. Luck was on my side. Just in the nick of time I got to the john, began the inevitable 'Oh my God', floating above the toilet seat because my a** is burning SO BAD, purging. One poor fellow walked in while I was in the middle of what is the true meaning of 'Shock and Awe'.. He made a gagging sound, and disgustedly said, 'Son-of-a-****!, did it smell that bad when you ate it?', then quickly left. Once finished and I left the restroom, reacquired my partially filled cart intending to carry on with my shopping when the orange aproned paint specialist approached me and said, 'Sir, you might want to step outside for a few minutes. It appears some prankster set off a stink bomb in the store. The manager is going to run the vent fans on high for a minute or two which ought to take care of the problem.' My smirking of course set me off again, causing residual gases to escape me. The employee took one sniff, jumped back pulling his shirt up to cover his nose and, pointing at me in an accusing manner shouted, 'IT'S YOU!', then ran off returning moments later with the manager... I was unceremoniously escorted from the premises and asked none too kindly not to return. Home again without my supplies, I realized that there was nothing to eat but leftover chili, so I consumed two more bowls. The next day I went to shop at Lowes. I can't say anymore about that because we are in court over the whole matter. Bastards claim they're going to have to repaint the store.

that cube would look like this

a 6 x 24 nikon monarch now thanks to maks

not arguing that either dont matter when they came about im stating the opinion that was stated to me. dont matter whos was first or not right now matters about functionality. and what your saying is if our military had AK's we would be doing better?>>??? really? the military had to undergo investigations because of so many headshots that were reported as distances to make sure they werent executions

ummm... seeing as how the soviets looked at the german stg 44 for their concept idea of the AK and it wasnt this amazing gift idea from god yes my point = this there are different roles for both rifles and i fail to see who u fail to see this?

not that silly article again im not saying one is better or not im posting an extremely well worded argument from someone that does not partake in shooting but knows from real world history in which he is an educator. this is an situational example of where one is better than the other and vice versa

my history professor "who has a doctor degree and not just a wahoo lol" said that in his opinion the AR platform is slightly better but it is meant for professional soldiers that at the end of the day would clean their gun before cleaning themselves, and the AK was a rifle that if it got dirt in the action that shooting it would actually clean it due to the loose tolerances, and that it does not need to be cleaned no where near as often and the takedown and parts are much easier to work with. the ak is a weapon that could be buried for a year picked up fired and it is meant for more everyday people without real military training and not professionals so the way that the AK style rifle was made suits this role better than the AR. He said they are almost equally as good but they suit their roles in which they are used today perfectly. dont kill me but i couldnt argue anything that he said in that point and was somewhat amazed lol, i just had to share.

maybe he was in the tree and they surrounded him while he contemplated suicide remember he was bitten before he hung himself so maybe he ran into the tree after being bitten

i can agree with if you are holding your child a pistol would be much easier to handle and i bet we could :thsmiley_deadhorse: for hours with different scenarios lol

^^^ THIS LOL ya if its not going down after this hmm not sure what than. throw some slugs in lol

only time it was better was 900 years ago lol

Agreed whole hearted you still have to be able to handle the firearm and also i feel that sometimes a pump action shotgun is one of the easiest firearms to learn how to use i like 00 for the size and count but others might like smaller but i am very confident with my abilities with a shotgun

yes at 10 feet it is still small but thats better than a dime and also if you are more than 10 feet maybe in the living room or down a hallway your pattern will expand very fast

i keep my shotgun with 5 00 buck in the tube and 5 HP slugs on the saddle just for this reason so if i need one or the other they are on hand

lorenzo i have to argue ur opinion. a long gun might be larger but in the dead of night when you are just waking up and also have an amazing amount of adrenaline pumping aiming a hand gun accurately is to say the least hard. with a shotgun you will not have to aim as much as point since there is a much larger area that you can hit with a shotgun if using buckshot. down the road a handgun could be used but not in the beginning due to inexperience and difficulty of using a pistol in the dark when you cant see the sights and your hand is shaking like crazy from adrenaline. IMO

i keep mine loaded with 5 shells full of this if these dont put down the threat than we are all doomed

^^^ not the best idea IMO a safe is invaluable to a firearm owner. a gun cabinet is light enough that it makes taking all of someones guns at once easier. i would suggest maybe cutting one firearm out of the budget and investing in a safe. Costco normally has some on sale for 500$ and they are 24 gun safes that are fire proof and weigh over 500 lbs. a wall cabinet is fine for what yo are thinking about with the shotgun but not as good for multiple gun and long term storage

hopefully

ok sorry for the late update. i received my glock back yesterday morning with the new ejector which is noticeably more bet and angled than the other. it came in a hard glock box but no mag. so i called glock and asked if they would send me an extra mag and they said that they would send one out to me for having to send the gun in for repairs . so i got a new glock box and im getting another mag here is the pic of the new ejector this isnt my gun but heres a pic of the older ejector

get into paintball itll form some good habits lol

might have to do this will be gettin a new scope for christmas, itll give me an excuse

not so bad where do u live?

UP OR DOWN STAIRS? i did mine with 2 friends and mine weighs around 500 or 550 down a flight of stairs

how big and heavy? and stairs?
