  1. I liked the "Welcome to the club" comment...

    While I can see it making you take some time off from shooting, I can't see why it would stop you from returning once it is corrected.

    Chuck...looks like they put in spacers from Home Depot. :) In mine they spead the discs back apart and put cadaver fragments in so that they bones would all fuse with the donor bone.

    I still have some of the residual numbness because I went almost a year before getting it fixed, but no real trouble from it, now (5 years later).

  2. A BE member from TN is going through a tough time right now and is trying to sell his LR-308 to cover funeral costs. Team Adam Carter had the bright idea that enough of us might be able to chip in a little to help the family cover expense without him having to sell his rifle. Daniel does not have a paypal account but I do. Anyone that would like to contribute via paypal can send it to me @ mnyland@themxtrack.com and I will send him a check twice a week. If you do send money via paypal please include how you would like your name listed since I will be posting a list of what I have received and forwarded (it's that inner accountant just trying to get out of me).

    If you would rather just send a check to help out, Daniel's address is listed in his For Sale thread: http://www.brianenos...howtopic=122422

    Whatever you can do is appreciated. I hope to finish this up by the 18th of February so if you are going to send money via paypal please do it before then.

    Thanks,

    Mike

  3. I didn't know they were prone to breaking. I've got over 100K rounds through a collection of 7 M&Ps (no, I don't still have all of them) and I've never broken a trigger spring. 3 strikers and 2 or 3 slide catches but no trigger springs.

  4. I help moderate some other forums (dirtbike related) and we have tried junior/youth forums before. It was a fiasco. They become very hard to moderate because the implication is that the rules for what is acceptable in a forum for kids should be different than they are for the adults. The reality is that our junior shooters are held to the same standards when shooting in competition (realistically, even tougher standards because everyone watches the kids more closely) and they shouldn't expect to be treated any differently here.

    Just as I have regularly been impressed with the maturity of juniors who shoot, I have been very impressed with the quality of what some juniors have posted here. JKatz and Little_Kahuna come to mind, even though Nick is now an old fart and doesn't qualify as a junior, anymore.

    My 13 year old is also a member here and reads but has not really posted much.
