    ??? For any FBI agents on the board

    I know I about go nuts when reading the nonsense many people write about farmers..... (yes, some of us do know how to use computers, no I don't own any bib overalls, etc) so I try to be careful not to make silly statements about other professions. :)

    ??? For any FBI agents on the board

    I happen to think he's an idiot.... but I have to play the cards I'm dealt. The more accurate I can be the better- hence my questions - but I do feel a bit silly. I detest reading nonsense about my profession (such as what PETA puts out) so my thought here is to learn what I can so as to not...

    ??? For any FBI agents on the board

    Well, I can certainly see your point with regard to nonfiction- but when it comes to storytelling the key is to create something from nothing, and one cannot possibly be an expert in all areas about which one is writing.... a good story has many characters, many situations, and all have to have...

    ??? For any FBI agents on the board

    I agree with you.... what I try to do when I start writing is put together extremely detailed character profiles- for my use- and then as the story unfolds, I refer back to these profiles when details are needed. To do this well, I have to know all I can about my characters... hence the...

    Anyone here ever downsize their living space?

    Yes, 3 times now. From a 3,000 square foot farmhouse on 100 acres to a 3 bedroom house on 5 acres, to a 2 bedroom house on 1/2 acre. Each time was painful.... but ultimately very rewarding. By downsizing without changing income I basically gave myself a raise- and have much less to take care of...

    I carry a 36-2 everywhere.... and it has saved my bacon twice! (Thankfully without ever firing a shot...) Simple, effective, and never obsolete. My only other carry gun is a 4" heavy barrel model 10- which is also not obsolete. :) The best part is they were both quite inexpensive and are quite...

    New EDC set up for me.

    Nice Seems to me it's better to have a decent amount of gun to hold on to- I think you found a good rig there.

    Advice on .45acp carry load?

    As I posted in another thread, I've acquired a nice German made Sigp220 and am looking for thoughts on what to carry in it. I have not generally carried a .45 before. This one seems VERY accurate with 230 grain FMJ and feeds HST well. I haven't tried any other HP loads in it yet, but thought I'd...
