Depending on the circumstances, might look into a venturi pump. Google Liberty pump for an example. downside is it uses 1 gal. of water from your main for every 2 gals. of sump pit water it pushes out.

Educating the uninformed is key. I have to admit, before owning a handgun and actually using one, I was ambivalent as to mag capacity, etc. As a result of the current administration's (both state and federal) attempts to erode our rights I applied for my license and p2ps. After my first trip to the range it became evident to me that even 15 rounds might not be enough against a few intruders. Maybe some of these critics should actually go to a range themselves so they have a better idea of what they're talking about.

I love snow, just not on streets, driveways or sidewalks. Don't know where I'm going to pile tomorrow's stuff. Old Glock guy, just talked to my family in Estes Park, who confirmed your weather report.

Is that aluminum tape for duct work??? I have a roll of that, is your limited edition handiwork copyrighted?

Since it's my understanding that your collection is far from meager, get both! But I like the unfluted cylinder and full lug on the Talo. Congrats on whichever you choose.

My son likes Manning, but bet on the Seahawks and did pretty good. I didn't have a preference either way, but Sherman and co. sure backed up the talk with walk (and run, pass, defense, offense, etc.)

Just piling on, Tony's ok by me too. It was a pleasure dealing with him. I never felt like I was being rushed, and would have enjoyed hanging around to chew the fat if I wasn't so anxious to get home with my purchase.

No kidding! I shot a 19 gen 3 and liked it, especially when I let the trigger return to just past reset and fired again (if that makes sense).

safarcus and toe jam ??? Wish I had a 686 to file.

you guys are sick!

I've only been to a few ranges, but I was fortunate enough to be shown around CJRPC by Rick a while ago. That place is a great set up! I could easily see myself spending hours in the pits alone, and it's only like 20 mins. from me. Someday, I hope to have the $ for the initial fee.

I've used frogslube on my SS GP100 and Beretta since new (the GP's still new, since I've only had it for 3 months). It's funny, but I shoot for 1 hr. then spend 2 hrs. cleaning both my guns. I find it relaxing and an opportunity to check for any possible issues (in my limited experience). On both, I use patches and the froglube, q-tips, then brushes, then back to patches until they come out white (probably use 10-15 patches each). On the GP's cylinder face next to the cone I use a scotchbrite pad, rubbing very lightly with the frogslube until I get most of the carbon off, same with the forcing cone. The cylinders and bore seem to come out pretty clean so far.

Geez Rick, woulda never guessed.lol! I went with my Beretta 96A1 (haven't shot the GP100 enough, but like it so far)

So how long will it be before there's a model 69 in your ever expanding stable?

FINISH SCHOOL! As long as you and your parents are ok with the situation, stay put. Save as much as you can, even if it means cutting back on extras like ammo, etc. You didn't say what you are majoring in so don't want to postulate on your chances for gainful employment in your chosen field, but you are currently earning a living. Grad school ain't all it's cracked up to be, unless your current employer kicks in, you'll just be assuming more debt with not much more promise when you are done. p.s. you are being too hard on yourself

Very nice, indeed! I especially like the grips over the previous ones and the extended release looks like it gives you much quicker access.

Hey Frank, Had a very close friend named Noodles. Hope it wasn't your idea to go shooting with him, either way the price probably went up. What difference does another caliber make, at least you know you'll always be able to buy ammo for something. Good luck!

wish I could pick one up too, my sons bought me a t-shirt though.

Wishing everyone a blessed Christmas and holiday time, and a safe, happy and healthy New Year!

Wasn't the hub cap place across from Baker's Basin, around where the red roof is?

I also travel by that diner and think I remember it being open when I was much younger. They tried giving it away a few years ago too, no takers then either. Don't think it's big enough for an NJGF club house.

Alpo, Ditto for me on the accuracy issue, and I think you forgot to mention hideous. Internal lock, transfer bar...six of one, half a dozen of the other. I haven't held the GP100 comp but I did fondle the 686 SSR, IMO very nice piece! But still, 900 bucks?

Wanted a 686, ended up with a GP100 and like it very much (I'm just a recreational shooter). I hope no one takes offense, as everyone's likes and dislikes are unique....but who in their right mind would want the Ruger comp (I understand the hammer and trigger are polished and shimmed) over the 686 SSR at that price point? Carry on, Ben

Even though I'm the one who made the suggestion, I agree with Bob as far as having trouble finding a hospitable place indoors this time of year. It was a pleasure sitting outside in the warmer weather and shooting the breeze with everybody last time. I could certainly see a group of members getting together to shoot, but again, the choices are limited there too, and everybody will be wearing ear protection which makes conversation difficult. Can't wait for spring anyhow, heard we're getting some snow tomorrow am.

Good, more .40 for us civies
