Hiking Boot suggestions
Red Wings are the best boots every. Tad expensive, but worth it. Mine are five years old, and worn, but I could sleep in them they're so comfortable. Made in USA too.

Tire pressure monitor systems
We had a Solus at work. They're good, but damn if they're overpriced..

Tire pressure monitor systems
TPMS stems are indeed different. As far as I know, all TPMS stems are NOT brass. Regular ones seem to be all brass. They are also complete garbage. I've unscrewed a valve cap with my fingers and the stem just sheared. Never broke one taking a Tire off, but I avoided it ss much as possible... Some manufacturers allow you to reprogram them yourself. I believe we reprogrammed a Buick without any tools.

New Glock 42
If BLF doesn't own it, it doesn't exist. Period. I really don't understand the hype with .380. I really want a Colt Mustang, but the .380 is stopping me.

Securing my Generator
Am I the only one who wants to set up their generator in a garage? Yes, I realize what I have said here. I'd love to have a custom exhaust made for my portable generator so I could pump the exhaust out of my garage. I'm not going to because of the risk of fire and such. Maybe when I build my shed I will. During sandy we chained my generator to my 4000lb F150. However, super chain, concrete pads, etc won't stop a determined thief. I will say, I do like the idea of building the generator a little house just to stop the noise.

Is it worth trying to CCW a 4" K-Frame?
Didn't realize this thread was still alive LOL. Anyway... Smokin .50: I agree. I can shoot well IMO but I definitely need to practice. I'd love to get into IDPA at some point for the fun of it. Not that I have time to shoot guns, but that's another problem. I don't even know if I have shot anything in 2013. mipafox: By conceal, I would like something nobody will notice. Ideally I will probably buy a pancake and an IWB at some point. You shoot at the public range-that-shall-not-be-named out in the boonies right? Or are you at EFGA these days? I can stop by for lunch at one of the ranges or your place of employment. I'll bring the ketchup. As for everyone else... I'm fussy. I admit it. I like DA/SA or even DAO revolvers, and single action handguns. Striker fired handguns and DA/SA feel "weird" to me and I don't like them. Sigs are okay, and I've fired S&W automatics (steel frame, no Sigmas or M&P's) and I hated them. I would like to buy a Colt Defender when I have a better job. I'll be honest, I almost think I would like a Tokarev but the third-world safety is a turn off.

1964 Colt National Match 1911
Those things shoot wadcutters only? My dad has a Colt that is a few years newer than that... my favorite handgun of all time.

AR vs. lever action reliability
AR. A more reasonable question is a bolt action or AR.

Tracking devices
Walt discovered the tracking thing in season five. I've seen the whole series.

Speeding tickets issued on the highway are stupid.
They'll kick you out of the fast lane, it is illegal to cruise there. Or you'll get run off the road.

Guns found in attic - questions
The most important question hasn't been answered.... What guns are they?! It could be the long lost .45ACP Luger!

Will be my first revolver
S&W makes a better revolver, hands down. By all means, Ruger does NOT make Taurus-quality junk. There is nothing wrong with a Ruger. An older S&W is better than a new one, but nonetheless, you can't buy better. I'll disagree with GRIZ and politely call BS. Before someone chimes in and says Pythons are the pinnacle of revolvers... the fit and finish is top notch, but S&W had a better design, sorry.

Tracking devices
Well, the guy is suspected of cooking blue crystal meth. My brother in law was recently shot by some cartel types and I'm stuck driving him around to various things including mineral collector shows.

Stampings on barrel. Letter P meaning?
Probably either proof or particle. My Colt A1 barrel has MP for magnetic particle tested.

Tracking devices
My DEA brother in law and I put one of those on the managers car at the local fried chicken place. I later found out the SOB put one of those underneath my Challenger and I had to confront him about it. I think he just took them from work.

Voting with my feet, sad but happy

Help design this year's winter project
Mannlicher is cool. One of my favorite rifles is my dad's Mohawk 600, a short .308 bolt gun with an 18" barrel and a mannlicher stock. If I had a random action to build off of, I would do something like that. High polish blue, stock all the way to the crown almost, and something in a common .30 caliber.

HK293. G36 clones may be coming to the US.
H&K.... Because you suck, and we hate you.

Mechanic recommendation
It is not the engineers fault. People don't sit around with modeling software and just willy-nilly design cars that are nightmares to work on, its simply that the OEM makes a whole ton of money designing a car that is quick/easy to build versus something easy to work on. Any FWD car that has a subframe that comes out with the engine/trans complete is crap to work on, but stupid easy to build. The 90's VW's come to mind. I still wish cars/trucks came with starter solenoids mounted on the fender.

Once again - HP .22 RF
I always thought it was cool that 22 leverguns were practically the only thing available in the PRNJ with 15+ rounds.

Mechanic recommendation
Maybe I'm just used to old stuff then. I always just popped out the glove box and the most difficult part was not getting antifreeze in the cab.

oswalds easy shots
To answer the original question, no, I don't think I can shoot the way Oswald did regardless if it was the truth or not. First off, I'm no Marine, and secondly I think it was mostly luck anyway.

Osha to inspect ranges
No. Only established shooting ranges. You guys are freaking out. Osha barely supervises construction where people make large violations every day. They may stop in places like Bullethole to make sure it isn't a deathtrap and that's it.
