Well, that's better...she was a couple of years younger, since that video was made in 2016. That is one of my favorite Elvis songs, and it's hard to say that anyone else has sung it even close to as good as he did. Still she was much better in this video than in the AGT performances....I can't...

She absolutely deserved to win, and she is so sweet and humble that it makes you just love her. She is extremely talented which doesn't hurt either. :)

They are fantastic! I watched them last week when she fell, and it was heartbreaking. Watching them this week, I was literally on the edge of my chair and my heart was pounding. I was so glad they made it! I didn't like Sacred Riana at all, not any of her acts. Not my cup of tea at all. I...

I hope S&W will fix it for you. Technically, their warranty only covers the original owner, but most of the time they don't ask. I've read of a few instances when they would only work on a second hand gun for a fee, but that hasn't happened often. Like I said, most of the time they don't even...

When the self checkouts were first put in place, they were miserably hard to use. The new ones aren't so bad. I don't like to use them, though, because with all the health issues I am having here lately, especially with my back, I have to use an electric cart. It's hard enough to get the items I...

I've purchased a number of grips from them, although it's been a while...as I recall, they were prompt and responsive. You might be better off calling them.

There are advantages and disadvantages to both. Modern semiautos are more reliable than ever, but they can malfunction. When they do, most of the time it's pretty quick to clear the malfunction. They are usually faster to reload, assuming you are carrying a spare loaded magazine. That isn't to...

"Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country." JFK Yes, we have freedom in this country, but only because there were people willing to defend it. I don't think it's unreasonable at all to expect each citizen to do something to serve his country and his fellow...

I have short, fat fingers which make it very hard to push down the sear deactivation lever without a tool of some kind. The shield doesn't have the tool built into the grip like the bigger M&P models, so I find it much easier and quicker to just dry fire it. I always safety check my guns before...

I voluntarily enlisted in 1969, right out of high school, and I can definitely say that my experience in the service was a very positive impact on my life. I didn't do well in high school, not because of aptitude, but because of attitude. I started college immediately on my discharge, and I was...

If the government follows its usual procedure, then this would be true. I think the defense of our country should not be in the hands of those who are simply paid to do so. Granted, some enter the service for a variety of reasons, and patriotism may not be at the forefront of their reasons, if...

For me, for practice and range, I like Remington and Federal 115gr FMJ. For carry, I like Hornady CD 115gr.

I think that's true...but if a person can't shoot a heavier caliber accurately, or won't carry one because they don't like it, then a lighter caliber is better than nothing. That's when the "best" part of the caliber argument becomes subjective. 9mm is the smallest I'd personally choose for...

There are just too many variables to conclude that any one caliber is the "best." I think the best caliber is one that you have with you when needed, and one that you (personally) can shoot effectively and accurately.

Even then, most counties in Texas have restrictions/limits on how much (or how little) land you must have to be able to shoot on it. In most locations where we've lived, the minimum was 10 acres, and even then, some counties have placed additional restrictions on recreational shooting or...
