    Need J RD Fan for Grip Tester

    Thank you for all your responses! There is no such thing as being "late" to the party. We just want a variety of models tested with our new grips to make sure they will work on all models (except grip safety models which are already excluded). I think we will choose a few testers from here since...

    Need J RD Fan for Grip Tester

    John has designed our new J frame grips (RB only). We have a full-sized J-round combat grip and a two finger grooved J-round boot grip. These two styles will be offered notched for models with hammers and un-notched for models without hammers. They have an enclosed backstrap only. These will not...

    Thoughts on Getting Younger

    Bigwheelzip - I think you look a little like Natalie Wood in that hat. Very pretty.

    Trip "Out West"

    Maybe you can say what states you are thinking of going to. Every state has a lot of great places to visit, so mentioning those cool places off the beaten path is more difficult. I love a good road trip myself! The longest one I went on was 4 months and we made a circle around the US. There is a...

    Parking lot trolls

    I don't have a problem buying people food that need it, but do not give people money. There was one guy who would hang out in front of the grocery store and he wasn't in good shape physically. I bought him sandwiches and bottled water. He was always thankful. Another guy started hanging out...

    Anyone ever see a brilliant pink snake???

    I almost stepped on a pink rattlesnake once. I didn't see it because it was the same color as the red rock it was on. It had tan/brown patches too but was mostly pink. It rattled and I quickly lept to another rock. It was such a pretty color; it looked like a sunset. Jag312 - I saw one of...

    Bats

    Getting tangled in hair is malarkey (someone has been watching too many movies) but I was hit in the head by a bat, three times in fact, on consecutive evenings on the same path in a campground. Perhaps it was a mama protecting her young, or it was sick, I don't know. It was strange though, and...

    Bats

    We have a lot of bats around here, mostly Little Brown Bats. Sometimes we will find one eating moths and bugs attracted to the outside light. In the winter, we will have one or two spend a few nights with us under the alcove dining and taking cover there. We don't charge them. :-) Right now...

    Does this look normal for ahrend grips?

    Ahrends fitting is very good. Since you have tried two sets and both sets seem to have similar issues, I am thinking it might be your frame. Frames do vary slightly and some can be surprisingly out of spec. We had a similar fitting problem once and luckily the person was local so they could...

    MY GARDEN IS PROTECTED !

    She will come around, she will trust you again. Animals sense emotions. If she is still hanging out in the bathroom spend 15 mins in there every couple hours (as you can) and just talk to her in a soft soothing voice. Strangely, they respond to "baby talk" too. I know that sounds completely...

    Sorting through life's shoe boxes

    It sounds like a treasure chest from Candi, especially the letters you exchanged. What a special gift! Those are a lot of sweet memories and reading one every once in a while might make you smile. Love is such a blessing. ♥

    Charles Krauthammer near death

    Very sad. He was an intelligent free-thinking journalist who was highly respected. Very unusual in today's world. He will be missed! Fox News is going to have a special about him on Friday at 9 PM.

    My ’66 GTO was stolen and destroyed. Update post #70

    I am so sorry this happened! It makes me sad to see your beautiful classic so beat up and wrecked. I hope they find those responsible.

    Cat put to sleep

    I am so sorry for your loss. Leo was sure a cute cat! I like his yellow eyes and long fur. I agree with Les, that they are family members and it is the hardest thing to have to do. It is done out of love and compassion though. Condolences to you and your family. He will always be in your heart...

    Chicken Jerky

    I don't know anything about making jerky but do know a little about marinades. Worcestershire is pretty salty on its own. Are you using low-sodium Soy sauce? A good mix is a balsamic vinegar to low sodium soy sauce 2-1 ratio. A good Balsamic is important. I like the Trader Joes Gold. They have a...

    MY GARDEN IS PROTECTED !

    Susie, The SPCA here does the ferals for free and they have a low-cost clinic and traveling spay/neuter motorhome. If the SPCA is full or booked out I bring them to a local low-cost clinic that does the kittens for $20-$30 and cats $30-$40. Both these places include rabies vaccine and do others...

    Elk, bison, alligator, rattler attacks this week

    Our town was just in the news about having an unusually high number of rattlesnakes finding their way into people's yards and garages. Everyone is warned to be careful and on the lookout. I think all the new construction going on is driving snakes into neighborhoods. We have a pair of Red...
