Impressive looking work! Good on you for taking the initiative and personal responsibility to make it happen.

FiOS just dug. Give ya 2 guesses who I'm calling when they light the fiber.
After getting bills in successive months for $700+, $900+, and $430+ for a flat $99/month service, I'll let you assume that Comcast isn't the only borked cable provider.

So... I haven't been active on the boards for a longish while..almost a year. The other day I received a PM from a new shooter hitting me up for data for an obscure powder reference I made in a post over 2 years ago.
Because of his due diligence in searching out and asking intelligent questions about my data, I was inspired to do some research for him. It's good to be wanted sometimes... I miss the community here, but my current extracurricular activities preclude my participation here lest I aggravate the mods if I let something slip accidentally. All it took was the one PM to draw me back into learning. That's all...back off to the dark side. -
I have followed Cliff shooting a stage...usually I just feel stupid. After watching that however, I just feel....well......speechless.

I caught Francisco via DVR last night, and I'm impressed. His main website, S.O.N., is linked to off of Shooting USA's site. Well done, young man. Your initiative shall be rewarded.

What was that line..... I think it was PT Barnum who was erroniously credited with the quote:
"There's a sucker born every minute..."

sigh.....another season lost due to an opportunistic market...oh well....I went ahead and ordered one hundred bajillion BBs for my Red Ryder in case there's a run on those next.

While handling a Sig P229 at the last shop I was in, a local mom & pop:
Owner: "Chris, you really don't want that"
Me: "Huh? Why not?"
Owner: "The .40 S&W has a very nasty recoil impulse and even you won't be able to control it after the first shot" {After 15K through my M&P .40 alone, nevermind the Taurus and Beretta}
Me: "Thanks. I didn't know that...I was completely unaware." I then proceeded to put the pistol down on the counter rug with the slide open and wishing him a good day on the way out.
This is why I internet shop and pick it up at a dealer by my work. No BS, show them my CCW, sign off, walk out.

All of my M&Ps (not Pros, though) will close when I slam the mag hard enough. They've always grabbed a round and properly chambered, even when only having 10.
same here

That does suck...sorry to hear it
( insert curse word here )
I worked in an office where the (behind kissers)...could do no wrong
And the REAL result producing workers could do no right
This kind of crap tickes me off pretty bad

You worked here once too?

There are no words that make it easier, I know. However, you do have our condolences and prayers for a healing of your heart. Remember the good times, they are what makes up good memories and bring smiles instead of tears in the future.

She is only interested in your primers
muahahaha
That's excellent news indeed. Have fun

Just another reason I can no longer compete.... I can't justify a few thousand rounds a month going into the berm at these prices.

How odd your timing is with this... the wife and I did this on Saturday, as I couldn't find anything in there at all. It took all day and generated a trash pile as tall as I am , but damn, I have a decent reloading area again.

The other day I went downtown to run a few errands. I went into the local Coffee shop for a snack. I was only there for about 5 minutes, and when I came out, there was this cop writing out a parking ticket.
I said to him, 'Come on, man, how about giving a retired person a break'?
He ignored me and continued writing the ticket.
His lack of sensitivity annoyed me, so I called him a 'Nazi.'
He glared at me and then wrote out another ticket for having worn tires.
So I proceeded to call him a 'doughnut eating Gestapo...'
He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first.
Then he wrote a third ticket when I called him a moron in blue
.
This went on for about 20 minutes.
The more I talked back to him the more tickets he wrote.
Personally, I didn't really care. I came downtown on the bus, and the car that he was putting the tickets on had one of those bumper stickers that said,*'Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence.'*
I try to have a little fun each day now that I'm retired. The doctor tells me that it's important to my health..

Rescues pay back the kindness for the rest of their lives and beyond!
She's a real cutie too
I concur... well done and best wishes to your now larger family

Get the tool. Trying to SWAG it is a good way to screw up your trigger bow beyond all redemption.
I found this out the hard way... dropping $25 on the tool would've cost half as much money and saved a hundred times the aggravation I went through when I set mine up.

My wife and I are watching Who Wants To Be A Millionaire while we were in bed.
I turned to her and said,
"Do you want to have sex?"
"No," she answered.
I then said, "Is that your final answer?"
She didn't even look at me this time, simply saying "Yes."
So I said, "Then I'd like to phone a friend."
And then the fight started....

For several years, a man was having an affair with an Italian woman.
One night, she confided in him that she was pregnant. Not wanting to ruin his reputation or his marriage, He paid her a large sum of money if she would go to Italy to secretly have the child.
If she stayed in Italy to raise the child, he would also provide child support until the child turned 18. She agreed, but asked how he would know when the baby was born. To keep it discrete, he told her to simply mail him a post card, and write "Spaghetti" on the back. He would then arrange for the child support payments to begin.
One day, about 9 months later, he came home to his confused wife. "Honey," she said, "you received a very strange post card today." "Oh, just give it to me and I'll explain it later," he said. The wife obeyed and watched as her husband read the card, turned white, and fainted.
On the card was written:
"Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Spaghetti.
Three with meatballs, two without.
"Send extra sauce."
Because of his due diligence in searching out and asking intelligent questions about my data, I was inspired to do some research for him. It's good to be wanted sometimes... I miss the community here, but my current extracurricular activities preclude my participation here lest I aggravate the mods if I let something slip accidentally. All it took was the one PM to draw me back into learning. That's all...back off to the dark side.

Amazing to see a 7 year old thread resurrected from the past. I went to T&T and see that the price has more than doubled for Promo...ouch.
