Going through customs from a cruise ship in Singapore a couple of years ago, a woman was arrested as "a person of interest" from facial recognition and AI. Turns out that she was the last person in a jewelry store that had been shop lifted there the previous year. It seems that they use all of...

To Greyman50: this may bring back some memories; it was like driving in a school of fish:

What would rburg say about this? That's a test......sort of.

Pete, be aware that if for any reason you send your Ruger back to the factory, they will not return it with the Volquartsen trigger. They will re-install the original design, terrible trigger and may, or may not, return your aftermarket Volquartsen in a separate baggy. I believe they do that...

"I am sorry to hear of your need. I will add you to my ever lengthening prayer list. Even though I know not what to pray for He does." __________________ Music/Sports/Beer fan Most of us are barely aware of ourselves most of the time. We are the "ten percenters"; we only use around 10% of our...

Caj, yoy got nuttin' on 'dat Skinny Little Boy from Cleveland Ohio (Alex Bevan): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SoOpiFI12ms ...but he does remind me of you.

Thanks again for the updates. Some lyrics from George Strait's song "Rent", sort of reminded me of Rusty: Sometimes we'd just sit and laugh About girls and dogs and friends we had He said the gooduns are the hardest to come by And I'd let him tell me 'bout the days gone by He'd bait his hook...

Even old Speedo's praying for you, Rusty. Hang in there and get better. -S2

I have a 17-3 8-3/8", sn 6K49xxx, purchased in 2003 and shipped in June, 1975 per RJ. It has the 3T's; target stocks with foorball relief. I don't have the original box and haven't lettered it, so I can't say for sure that the targets are original. The 17-3 is a joy to shoot compared to my...

Snubby, I'm very sorry to learn of Lisa's passing. You have my deepest condolences and prayers for you. -S2

"What is the best 22LR ammo?" Well, here's my opinion: Federal Gold Medal Match, Series 900. The kind that they made around 25-30 years ago with the dimpled primers. It's no longer available and the stuff that Federal calls "Gold Medal" these days doesn't hold a candle to the old stuff. It...

I believe it was Samual Hamilton in East of Eden who said something like: "I could have agreed with my wife, but then both of us would have been confused". -S2

I too have one of the P210A's; had it for around 3 years. It's very accurate and peasant to shoot. However, its recoil spring assembly came apart very soon after I got it and was replaced under warranty. This was a common problem back then and much discussed on the SIG forums. There is/was...

I took the kids night-fishing on the isthmus between Catawba Island and Sandusky in July a bunch of years ago. We heard something that sounded like a B29 coming across the water. Turned out to be about 6 kajillion little green flying insects. We skiddattled back to the van pretty darned...

Last week we had an unexpected surprise: pre-travel visas are now required for a whole bunch of countries that heretofore didn't require them. We're scheduled to cruise to Australia next month and found that the Oz is now one such country. Pre-covid, we visited a whole bunch of countries...
