  1. I'm losing my taste for this, actually.

    I'm sorry if I offended you Rhino, I won't post in this thread anymore...I could be that you dislike the European input, so I'm thinking of resigning this forum.

    Intent and written messages sometimes differ...

    CU all, maybe sometimes.

    1K not for me, it's not so humorous..anyways.

    Henny!!

    You didn't offend me. Why do you think you offended me?

    Dude ... my loss of enthusiasm has absolutely nothing to do with what you write. I think you're k00l! :)

    Please stay!

  2. I hope everyone is sitting down and nobody has any cardiac problems ... if you do, skip this message.

    I sort of cleaned two ARs and an 1100 today. The ARs have had at least a couple of thousand rounds through them together since the last time I cleaned the bolt/carrier group. The 1100 ... it's the second time I've done a spray'n'wipe on it since I've owned it. ;)

    I brushed the hell out of the AR chambers, ran a bore snake through three times, wiped out the goop I could see with a paper towel, dismantled the bolt carriers and scraped/wiped the bolt, wiped the firing pin, and the rest of the carrier and parts, then relubed with FP-10 and put 'em back together.

    With the 1100, I sprayed a LOT of BreakFree CLP pretty much everwhere I could see crud. Worked the bolt a few dozen times, wiping excess crud as necessary, ran a bore snake through a few times, and sprayed more CLP into the little holes I had drilled in the fore end.

    Three gun match tomorrow.

    I hope they still work after all of that abuse!

  3. Battlestar Galactica is so... so... visceral!! I love it. :wub:B)

    I really like the "retro" look of all of their technology. Almost everything is analog!

    It's a very clever touch, fits in well with Earth people being the lost tribe of humans, and is a nice homage to the original Star Trek!

  4. I also maintain that James West from "Wild, Wild West" and Captain James T. Kirk are essentially the same character.

    They are not the same character. James West wouldn't get kicked out of bed for eating crackers. Kirk wouldn't make it through the front gate.

    I believe you are basing your opinion on the actors who played the roles.

    The characters themselves are the same!

  5. Unless it's going to be a carry gun too, I think you'd be a lot happier with a .40. There's no point in putting that much $$$ into a gun for playing games, then handicap yourself with more muzzle flip and slower cycling slide.

  6. My 9mm works great too, but I've seen many more than don't.

    Let's put it this way ...

    If you have 100 1911s in .38 super and 100 1911s in 9mm, I believe that a larger number of the guns chambered in .38 super will function 100% without a lot of work, and that overall there will be more reliability problems among the 100 9mm pistols.

    Sure, a lot of it magazine related, but regardless of the problem, it just seems easier and less stressful to get a .38 super to run.

    It's kind of like .45 vs. .40. I've seen 100 (or more) .45 1911s that run like tops to every one .40 I've seen that will run okay. Okay, as usual I pulled that number from my butt, but you get my point.

    I will also say that the 9 round magazines built by Metalform for Springfield are the best thing that has happened to the 9mm 1911. If your gun can work at all, it will work with those magazines.

  7. ...yeah its tough against the girls.  Almost, unfair. :D

    That will be a good lesson for him to learn as well. ;)

    That's an excellent point.

    We should all learn at an early age that:

    1. Women almost always have an unfair advantage in almost everything that does not require upper body strength (and even then sometimes).

    2. Women control the most important resources known to mankind.

    3. Women are in charge, even if they let us think we are for a little while.

    :blink:
