    Pawn shops Are Great Places To Shop

    Depends upon where you are and the individual shop. When I traveled a lot, I visited pawn shops, got one outstanding deal on once fired .45 brass. Other than that, at least locally, a waste of time as they don't haggle and are right proud of their wares.

    AND ANOTHER CALIBER WAR !

    Actually, in the case cited immediately above, if caught in the act, a good camera for documentation in re the divorce. It does take two to tango....or so I'm told.

    Iron Verus Modern Sights

    Pretty much they break and disappear. Apparently, one inserts the tube, then heats the end(s) to flare them to retain it. I guess if the tube breaks, the slide shuffling back & forth ejects the pieces. The last failure I saw was on the gun of a S&W factory sponsored shooter at a TPC match. No...

    DO NOT ASK sign

    Actually, Virginia has that (blue) paint law with the option of white paint. The stripe is supposed to be about a foot long, 6 inches wide and on trees about 100 feet apart.

    Peanut butter works much better than cheese for pill ingestion.

    I had that as a bumper sticker! Originally, it was a comment on promotional practices at my employer. Later, it became an operational option at another place of employment.

    Prescription Nonsense

    There's a slew of prescription discount providers out there. The good folks behind the counter sort through them and find you the best deals. My local CVS is great about that, they even found stuff that beat my RX insurance coverage to the point I dropped it. Maybe others aren't so diligent

    Iron Verus Modern Sights

    I've been using RDOs for over 40 years, I'm a fan. BUT, on handguns they're a supplemental sight* (still need the irons-manufacturers that lose the rear sight to add the optic take note!) that my old eyes need for anything with any distance involved. I've got magic specs that let me see the...

    Sig found liable for gun discharge

    After watching the video in post 80, I've got several observations. 1. READ THE BLEEPING MANUAL. 2. The trigger system seems like it wasn't exposed to sufficient beta testing. 3. And folks whine about the sear release lever in the M&P series?

    Sig found liable for gun discharge

    I don't have a dog in this fight, but it's interesting. I also posted this in another related thread: SIG has announced a free upgrade to the 320 trigger system. Details at https://www.sigsauer.com/p320-voluntary-upgrade-program. Looks like it might solve whatever the issue(s) is/are. [Wonder if...

    Fallout from the SIG P320 Uncommanded Discharges

    I don't have a dog in this fight, but FWIW, SIG is offering a free upgrade package https://www.sigsauer.com/p320-voluntary-upgrade-program. The video goes into detail on the changes they make to the trigger setup. The changes seem like they'd logically take care of the issue. [I do have to...

    Gotta go with the phone booth*, then & now and the tire cover. I'm sending copy of the nurse thing to my nurse daughter. *It's REALLY annoying when there's only one stall and you can hear video game noises from inside that stall.

    Heavy Clothing Stops .38 Wadcutter!

    A couple of remarks on the FBIs ammo testing protocol. I don't live far from Quantico and had friends who worked there. I even got a few pirated copies of internal memos on their "discussions" on proper ammunition/calibers. BTW Ed Mireles did a book on the incident, you can get the story from...

    Gates and game cameras. Or maybe a couple of dump truck loads of gabion (or larger) and game cameras.

    You done good. The type of sights isn't as important as actually using them. And, the quality of the trigger press can make sight alignment/picture irrelevant. You can't widget your way to competence. Fire superiority is for engagement of area targets by the military. BTW, what was the course...

    DO NOT ASK sign

    I'd add the tag. Maybe a pole gate on the main drive, consider gates/chains on the other entrances-also with signs. And concealed game cameras. Won't stop the walk ins, meeting them with appropriate accessories might. 30 odd years ago ran into that mindset too. Summary: "My ancestors owned that...

    Any farmers here (ques re weeding fence rows)

    Because whatever concentrate used is really bad for you as noted directly above AND the spray wands occasionally leak at the valve. We used to be able to rebuild those valves, not now. In really hot weather your pores are open and the stuff can get absorbed into the body. Wash up with hot water.
