Nuff said!
Sooo...I pulled the trigger on this one I picked up and it followed me home. Those aren't the original shoes on it, though. It's not exactly minty, but the action is cherry and the trigger breaks like glass.

That habanero pepper and the Dick Special are both some serious heat. I like your idea of breakfast!

Wait, you're saying the theory has been tested in real life, enough times to have a conclusive database?
Not at all. It's just a theory. I said, "likely to".
I've considered the following scenario:
I'm walking through bear country, with someone else, and we're unarmed. (Like that's going to happen!) We see a bear. I turn to my companion, and yell, "Bear! Run!", and then as soon as he takes off, I drop to the ground and roll up into a ball. The bear is more likely to chase someone running. Don't they always tell you not to run? There has to be a reason!
I grew up in SE Alaska, and I don't go to bear country unarmed. But sometimes I think funny things.
I buy and use.....
I buy and use Pachmehr products but I still can't spell it right.

OP describes firearm function or finish problem. Poster replies "Send that dangerous/defunct/worthless thing to me and I'll dispose of it properly for you at no charge!"
Not helpful. Not funny.

EXACTLY!
When I read something like that, I have to wonder if that person JUST found the internet and honestly believes he's conjured up a brilliant witticism and is completely unaware how tired and lame it really is.

Me, too. And calling sandwiches, sammies". Gawd I hate that! And when grown men on lame entertainment shows combine a couple's names and call them that. Like "Brangelina". I even hate typing it!

The "boating accident"!
You have to know that whatever "they" want to find out, "they" WILL find out!
Ever heard of enhanced interrogation?

I got one, didn't want it. It finally went away.
"what he said" or+1
Glad it went away - those things are no fun, so I'm told....

You missed my post #115.
I most certainly did!
Before I posted, I even re-read (okay, quickly scanned) the entire thread.
I was glad to see I wasn't the only one who's tired of that cliche!

I'm just gonna say it. "A gun is just a tool". For some reason, that just rubs me wrong.

i post too many silly things to criticize the way others talk.
these phrases are here to stay n don't really detract from the fun of reading posts, even tho i agree with many of the above comments.
what really drives me crazy are the esoteric abbreviations some people use.
a cliche i can just skim past, but an abbreviation i don't know stops me in my tracks.

Sorry if it's already been said but people who do this when a simple "like" would suffice...

I found a new one this morning... someone posted about their rifle's action being "in a chassis" meaning they'd re-stocked it in a "tactical" looking stock instead of the timber original.
Yes, it's a small thing in the grand scheme, but if you want folks to think you're "well 'ard" as the Brits put it, learn to shoot it rather than buying it dress-up clothes.

Plastic ones are "sneakers", wooden ones are "clogs"
I prefer "Grips" for handguns - "stocks" are what rifles have (see above...)
