  1. LOL!! Definitely Hatfields and McCoys stuff. Guy took 4 bullets to the chest...because of an argument over a fence. The older guy was just renting a room so it wasn't even HIS fence!!!
  2. ...because of the fence that divides their property??!?!?!?!?!?! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFzCYLqJtq8 I wonder if the angry guy who started the encounter with "Hey asshole" and is in intensive care is having second thoughts? Seems like they've been building to this point for several years. It was only a matter of time before one of them shot the other: http://www.dailyjournal.net/2017/06/29/ongoing_feud_turns_violent/ The prosecutor’s office has reviewed multiple reports involving Weigle and the Kellers in the past. Since 2009, residents of the two homes have called police at least 16 times on each other, according to reports from the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office. The disputes have ranged from Weigle reporting being bitten by the Kellers’ dog in 2009 to multiple reports of arguments about a fence that separates the two properties as recent as last year. In 2010, the Kellers got a protective order against Weigle after two reports where they said Weigle threatened to shoot their dog and challenged Dean Keller to a fight. The order later lapsed, though deputies had recommended more than once to get a new one, according to police reports. In 2011, sheriff’s deputies were called to the home after a fight. Weigle told police the Kellers’ dog ran at him, and Dean Keller told police Weigle called for the dog. The two ended up on the ground fighting, and Weigle stabbed Dean Keller in the arm, requiring stitches, the report said. Dean Keller told police he had bit Weigle during the fight, according to the sheriff’s office report. The Kellers had also reported instances where they felt threatened by Weigle, including Dean Keller reporting that Weigle had told him he had a gun and would use it, reports said. They also reported Weigle had driven up and down the road in front of their home on his motorcycle, thrown fireworks toward Lisa Keller and their dog and threatened Dean Keller with a bat, reports said. Nancy Phillips, 79, who owns the home where Weigle lives, told police that earlier this week, Dean Keller had threatened to kill Weigle, but no report was made to police. In the last two years, the dispute mostly centered on the fence between the properties. Residents from both homes called police when Dean Keller would remove ties or rings Weigle or Phillips would put onto the fence. More than once, the disputes turned physical. Over the years, Dean Keller reported Weigle had spit at him, stabbed him with a fork and hit him in the head. Lisa Keller reported Weigle had struck her with a broom. And Weigle reported that Dean Keller had tried to hit him with a pipe and stabbed him with needle-nose pliers, police reports said.
  3. Thanks to all for the discussion and recommendations!
  4. FYI if anyone needs a few boxed and can't wait for a mail order.
  5. This is well stated. It's probably a common these for lots of activities (golf, running, cycling, etc) where people wan to get out and DO it before learning how to do it. The complexity with shooting is the potential for serious injury/death when there are relatively minor errors made.
  6. An eyewitness just told CNN that the shooter appeared to originally start shooting about 100 yards away by a concession stand. He was shot when he tried to change/advance his position. If it was an "assassination attempt" I would presume that the shooter would be a little better, so I'm leaning towards whacked out nutjob. I'm VERY happy that nobody was killed, but the shooter essentially had fish in a barrel so it could have been MUCH worse.
  7. If you ever get to north Jersey, Ottomanelli's usually has a few in stock http://www.osarms.com/ Call first for availability and pricing. They tend to be a bit expensive for hard to get guns.
  8. Mine was similar. About 70 mile tow for a Chevy Suburban. I had AAA so the first 50 was free and the other 20 was discounted. Tow driver tried EVERYTHING possible to get me to go to his garage or sign his paperwork before we got it back to my mechanic. Can't imagine what he would have done to me if I went with him or signed the paperwork early...
  9. LOL!! THAT would have been a funny picture. Just one round of shot through the middle of the sign would have been very funny...
  10. Another thing I can't understand is why the article was created at all. This happened last year and was essentially open and shut. THere were no smoking guns and no new evidence.
  11. I think reloaders visit the for sale section, so it's probably best to post there. I believe one of the requirements is posting an asking price, so you may want to check the FAQ's.
  12. Even in situations where it seems pretty cut and dry, there are media outlets that look to shift question/blame on gun owners when defending themselves. Case in point is an article that was printed yesterday regarding the death last year of an NBA player. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2709769-the-night-that-cost-bryce-dejean-jones-his-life-and-nba-dream The 6' 6" 200+ pound player wanted to get into an apartment (he thought it was his girlfriend's) and "proceeded to kick and punch the metal front door, repeatedly and with such force that he broke through a pair of deadbolts. Once inside, he tried opening the bedroom door, only to find that it too was locked", so he started to breaking through that one as well. The occupant, a 22-year-old teacher, removed his gun from a nearby dresser and shot through the door. Tragic event all around, and the very long article seems to set the player up as some kind of misunderstood guy. I'm fine with that and I hate that someone had to die, but in the middle of the article the writer kind of turns things around: "It might have been a second, or a millisecond, or a milli of a millisecond. Even were it the absolute slightest measure of time, that teacher had an opportunity to put the gun aside. To take a deep breath. To wait. To gather himself. Wasn’t that exactly what he had learned as the son and younger brother of United States Marines? Yes, a gun can be used for self-defense, but know what you’re doing. In college, he was a member of the school’s pistol club, where the stated objective was to teach “basic handgun safety and marksmanship skills in a safe, friendly and convenient environment.” A safe, friendly and convenient environment. Here, inside his bedroom, was as safe and friendly and convenient an environment as he knew." The guy was startled awake in the middle of the night by someone (or multiple people) breaking down his front steel door. He then hears the same person/people making the attempt to get into his room. He calls out but there's no response, so he fires. IMO he waited more than a milisecond. Had he waited longer and the intruder been armed it could have been too late. Maybe I'm reading too much into it but seems like an awkward transition in the article.

    I cheat. I start with a big bottle of Yago, Opici, or Beso del Sol Sngria. I add apple, orange, and lime wedges, a splash of vodka, and then dry red wine until I get the flavor I like. Never fails.
  14. I was at the range tonight for GSSF practice session and I was asking some of the better shooters for pointers. A few of the guys asked if my Glock 17 was stock. It is, so they recommended that I get a trigger spring kit as the stock setup "sucks". Anyone have recommendations for a Gen 4 Glock 17 trigger spring kit? I've installed a trigger kit on my KelTec Sub 2000, so I'm reasonably comfortable doing this myself. I've seen a few online but some feedback from real people is appreciated. Thanks!
  15. At the end of the day they're all shotguns. Are you looking for them to do something different than the 870? Sounds like a "want vs need" situation. I got a KSG because I wanted a pump action shotgun that was as short/nimble as possible. I've run all kinds of rounds through it without any issues, so I have no reservations about it being my home defense shotgun of choice. If I didn't have the money (or desire for a short pump shotgun) my semi-auto Browning would have defaulted to the shotgun of choice. Doesn't sound like you "need" the extra shotgun, but if it fills a void you see in your current arsenal then go for it.

  17. This is great! Garand has been at the top pf my short list for a while.
  18. I think the people who make those arguments ignore the intent of the 2nd amendment. The framers ABSOLUTELY wanted citizens to be armed with "military style" weapons. There was an expectation that the militia's would need to fight!!!!!! I read a book called "The Second Amendment: a biography" by Michael Waldman that recounts some of the debate prior to the final draft for the amendment. It's a good read and it shows that if anything politicians were concerned that the militias would only have their shotguns and hunting guns instead of proper rifles for combat.
  19. This time of year the only reason I'd go there on a nice weekend would be for an event. There are folks who have long drives and nowhere else to shoot who come out in large numbers when there's mild weather, so it gets really packed. Once the weather gets nice people will start shooting during the week too, so early in the morning or later in the day on weekends could open up a bit. I live 25 minutes away and have flexibility with my lunch schedule so I stick with weekdays.
  20. Too rich for my blood, but that looked like A LOT of fun!!!
