i'd shop 'round for pricing.......fix this, presuming that the rest of the vehicle's in good condition, and use it for your work commute. buy something newer/nicer for other than work.

Some Journalists Actually Do Research
it is somewhat surprising....but the writer still has /'the govt must protect us" undertones.

Need help from Chevy or GM mechanic
NO. do it right. if you don't do the extra degrees they will not have the correct clamping force. i'm not trying to be a dick....but.....do it right or don't do it. brakes aren't something to experiment with.

Quinton 3 Gun Sunday September 24th.
WOOHOO!!!!!! i had exactly TWO goals at this shoot. well.....three.... 1) most importantly, 'cause screwing this one up screws up EVERYones time, as well as making 2 and 3 impossible to do.......be safe. i was successful. 2) have fun. i literally had a blast. it might sound stupid, but there was a lot to take in in-between shooting. i was successful. 3) not come in last. i figured if i could at least not come in in last place, i accomplished something besides learning. i'm happy to say upon looking at the scores, i wasn't last place!! i was awful dam close, but i wasn't. now.....if anyone's got the time......can you explain to a noob how to actually read that scoring? or point said noob in the direction to read how to read it? now that i got a groovy/cool new shottie....i should be able to improve by at least one place. and to add to the cool factor, i ain't tuckin' my hair up under my cap next month. ha!

NRA & ANJRPC nowhere to be found over the course of Ramsey gun range case
I think more people probably leave this state due to over-taxation than due to illegal(yes, they are illegal) gun laws.

Bug Out Bag Suggestions
not so sure it's a great idea to share specifics...such as amount of ammo......even here.....ya know? prying eyes? as in we here in this forum aren't the only ones seeing this stuff? do i sound paranoid? yea i do. but...everything i've ever sounded paranoid about has happened eventually, and i make it a point to remind people that they'd called me paranoid......they don't like that.

Quinton 3 Gun Sunday September 24th.
ok. i had a blast. virtually anyone i spoke to was super helpful. especially that kid(i'm sorry if you're reading this, but i forgot your name) that just started a few months ago, and was videoing his runs. jeff was awesome guiding me when he timed me(don't forget, this is the first time i've attended one of these), and the brothers....tom and bob i think? i think they will re-define suck thanks to my rifle performance today though, lolol. i'm hesitant to blame the equipment, so i gotta wait till next week to check zero on my dot. i was hitting well with pistol and shotgun, but didn't seem to be hitting much more than the berms with my rifle. anyway......i'll be there next month. with some adjustments in my equipment. most significantly, i will have some sort of caddy(not the car). my belt setup worked half way decently for me, but without shotshell caddies, i was kinda screwed on shotgun reloads. was reloading from a side cradle and from the sling. what i feel i may need to do too, is to use a different rifle, as this one is kinda short(still needs to be checked for zero obviously) as when i bought it, its original purpose was cqb/shtf. the 92f ran flawlessly. i'm gonna keep with the 870 for shotty for now....but the front sight released itself from my service. found them online, but gotta buy the whole set for 200 bucks. louu.....i didn't stop to say hi, 'cause once you finished the briefing, you were looking busier than a one armed paper hanger, and i didn't wanna interfere with your work. thanks for kinda nudging me though. you'll be seeing more of me down there.

LaRue Rifle kit $891
I gotta ask the stupid question here.....re: the threaded brake........are they stated to be illegal in the statutes? i'm not trying to be a wise ass. but i am possibly doing a fantastic job at being a dumb ass. \

Crown Vic Police cars... opinions
without a doubt. hell.....for that price, if it only lasts a year or two, it's a great deal. i know most pd's around my area are pretty meticilous on their maintenance. cherry hill(where my shop is) has their own facility. most of the smaller towns contract out to shops like me. i do one, and am working on getting a couple other neighboring pd's. they all report though that at min. their oil is changed every 3k miles.
