  1. Bob, How can I resist ? But - why not try to organize something at Old Bridge or Central Jersey USPSA. A much higher caliber of match and stages IMO. -Alec
  2. I'm sure they work well,but they are super expensive I'd like to buy a gas one, and convert it myself with the kits @ http://www.propane-generators.com
  3. looking for portable generator recommendations that * play nicely * with the us carb tri fuel kit, like to stay around 600-800 dollars....at least 5000 watts, Who has had success with installs? I dont want to be cutting frames, and such. Thanks. Alec
  4. Wow, that was incredible. Amazing how it slammed face first into the only jagged piece on the whole cliff
  5. Anybodyy familiar with the generac brand of portables? intrested in the GP5500 gen. Home depot lists two types for the same model... one is about 100$ more expensive and is listed as " with carb " .. any ideas? http://www.homedepot.com/p/Generac-GP5500-5500-Watt-Gasoline-Powered-Portable-Generator-5939/202527679 && http://www.homedepot.com/p/Generac-GP-5-500-Watt-Gasoline-Powered-Portable-Generator-with-Carb-5945/203220821 Anybody do the natural gas / tri - fuel conversion kits they have online with this type? any other opnions on the brand?
  6. I'm not sure about that Jer, I re-did my whole electrical service last year, new feed , panel, the works. Inspector required me to have TWO ground rods for the new panel, at least 8 feet apart from eachother, each with their own grounding wire back to the panel.
  7. It was a actual production run from smith and wesson. pizza bob found one, but that hoarder wont sell it to me !
  8. I could recommend places for Smith and Wesson work, colt work on the other hand... best of luck to you!
  9. I'm not a race car fan, so I could care less in that aspect, But the main reason is because I work in weehawken. Traffic is already a nightmare over there everyday to and from work. I couldn't imagine what it'd be like with the race there.
  10. Thank god
  11. alec.mc replied to Steve_G's topic in Handguns
    It's a fine gun, I had one for a while. Now, mind you - you're ordering from Dawson - They put their own touches on them. Meaning, the gun has probably been in their inventory for a little while.... and this new roll mark thing sounds pretty new, so... If you're expecting to get one with the new smaller roll marks I would call them up and confirm first, I'd put my money on you getting the old style. -Alec
  12. one of them needs a red dot !
  13. Wish I could help, but I'm out for this one Vlad, working double @ work. Let me know if it's coming down to crunch time and you don't have enough stage designs - I can forward you something
  14. 4" 686 scarce ? Its probably the most common handgun on the planet give me a ring when you find a 38 super 627. A model 610. And a model 646. K thx bye
  15. flat rate of 40 dollars per 5 gallon bucket work for him ?
  16. Glen was about as useful as a poopy flavored lollipop this episode. Somebody definitaely jacked the bus, it left pretty unexpectedly during the fight scence.
  17. betting that the one chick the gov met in the apartment stole the baby and the bus after she freaked out.
  18. 8" drum? jeebuss... Rarely do I find the need to tumble every peice of brass I own. nor the patience to de-prime all of them first.
  19. Not nessasarily true, But even past the whole pro aspect - When you do see revolvers competing, seldom they are holstering a ruger.
  20. I'm definitely a smith and wesson fan boy, but with the two listed above - I'd say go with the Ruger LCR. In this case, out of the box, The Ruger LCR has the better trigger, has a bit of a different feel due the coiled main spring. I like the light weight frame, though with stout loads it does bite more then a traditonal steel frame. But as a carry gun, the light weight works. I have the .357 magnum version, and it's one of the rugers that I just wont get rid of.
  21. dwindling faith in humanity
  22. i'm sure bobby will beat me to the punch, but: The rugers are approved, you can use whatever gun your little heart desires, but for some applications there are just better candidates out there. Take a look at the pro competition guys that shoot revolver, you never see a ruger in their hands - it's always a S&W, and for good reason. Quality is better, aftermarket product availability, modifications - easier to have a quality trigger job on a smith over a Ruger, Sounds like you have alot of research to do, figure out what you want to do with it, what gun games you'd like to compete in, and what you want to get out of it and go from there.
  23. Roger that, you best come to some OB & CJ matches once * the change * is upon us.
  24. Bob made some great points about grips, I run Houge aftermarket grips on ALL of my revolvers, the factory grips just dont work for me. Another tidbid is, IIRC the GP100 is just slightly larger then the K/L frame of the 686, which why it may felt better in your hands, You might be more comfortable going one size up to the S&W N-Frame revolvers...... ...and while I mention that, my advice would be to skip over the 7 shot 686+ , IMO it's a small niche dying variation of the smith series, 7 shots is just a weird number to have, the aftermarket product line is weak. Do yourself a favor and look at the S&W 627 series, while it might be a few bucks more expensive, it's worlds better - Larger more comfortable frame, 8 shots of .357 magnum, tons and tons of aftermarket support and products, cut for moon clips, a high ( and growing ) resale value, and is a great candidate for * gun games * like steel challenge and USPSA ( come feb. 2014 )
