Illinois Applied with all the proper paperwork etc. on March 16, 2014 Received my CCW on April 22, 2014. I was surprised. My only gripe is they used the pic from my driver's license (the most awful pic of me available) despite me submitting a new and, to my eye, better pic. Yep, despite being...

As Ogden Nash said: "The turtle lives 'twixt plated decks Which practically conceal its sex. I think it clever of the turtle In such a fix to be so fertile."

How about "gnarly"?

I bought a set of RB to SB for my 19-3 snubbie. I happen to live near their office so I brought the gun to the store. The owner, Raj, couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating. That being said, the stocks did not fit well off the shelf. I left the gun with them and ran some errands for...

I've bought 3 guns on this (really great!) forum all by just happening to get the first "I'll take it" on record. I've been beaten many times. The whole process reminds me of pigeons feeding but I can't think of a better way to do it. Just gotta be ready to "peck" fast!

Not saying there are no abuses but the stakes are a bit different in a dog vs a horse vs your kid.. . . or you!

'Now it's my turn': Greenbrae man, 90, testifies about shootout with suspect - Marin Independent Journal

Just got a used Liberty 25. I've brought power in through the 3/8" hole in the lower back corner of the safe. I used 14/3 cord (overkill, I know) because its diameter matched the diameter of the hole in the safe. I'm going to use a Goldenrod or some similar heat source to keep the temp above...

Sorry I am sorry about the loss of your dog. I have loved a series of dogs over the last almost 40 years and I grieved over every one of them. Here is a poem I found years ago. I send it to my friends as they suffer the loss of their "lovesome hounds". I'll hope you like it. Austin On the...
