  1. Holy $hit !!! That was one of the best hours of TV ever......I can't believe that the time has come for the final 90 minute episode next week.....I'm in mourning.
  2. $1.85 here yesterday !!!!!!!!!! I never thought it would go below $1.99, but it continues to fall a couple cents every day or two. Man, the public is really gonna be pissed off when they start raising it again at 15 or 20 cents a whack.......
  3. My PD now issues Benelli M2's to everyone with the dreaded pistol grip/18" barrel/and factory rifle sights. This is a pretty good combo. Our SWAT team has some 14" M1 entry guns that will only run on the full-power ammo, so at first that is all that was allowed with the new 18" guns. I took my personal M2 (21" brl.) & M3 (18"? brl) and showed them that will shoot the reduced recoil ammo all day long....so now they are in the process of phasing out the full-power ass stomping slugs and buckshot in favor of the reduced recoil stuff. With the factory rifle sights and slugs at up to 50 yds, they are spot on with the I/C chokes in. We sent a couple guys to Benelli armorer school, who can now fix the occasional problems that may arise. You may want to give the rifle sights a try.......lock-tite them down and they are pretty good to go.
  4. STInky

    $2.75

    We finally broke the $2.00 mark.....$1.99 here in NE AR, at least until the election poles close tomorrow and the price jumps up a dollar/gallon !!!!!!!
  5. AR Multi-Gun results Hmmm....I don't remember the Nationals being posted the same day !!!!!!!
  6. So, by that statement.....do you think factory ammo (Rem. & UMC) would not be reliable ?????
  7. Why do you want to change? I'm always looking for something new to try.....can't keep a vehicle more than two years, I've got three sets of golf clubs,...somehow I've managed to keep the same wife(1st one) for 11 years !!!!! It's not that I don't like my STI....I love it !!! I'll never get rid of it, unless I replace it with something similar or maybe a 6". Just curious about trying something different.
  8. My Edge has shot nothing but Remington & UMC 165gr. since I've have it. Never had the first problem with it. It will also shoot Hydro-Shoks & Golden Sabres like there is no tomorrow. If my dept. would allow it, I would carry my Edge or something very similar as duty weapon.
  9. I've been shooting a STI 2011 for about 4 years in limited, and I'm thinking about trying a different format. What would you choose as your next limited gun ???? I've been thinking about the Tanfoglio/EAA route. I really like the looks of some of the Canyon Creek guns.... Any pros & cons to this weapon system that you guys know of ????
  10. As a police officer, I'm amazed at the number of calls we get periodically where mom says...."I can't get my 8 or 10 yr. old to mind me.....or he/she won't go to school today......" I think it has a lot to do with the parents not standing up to their children at an early age and showing them who is the boss. I could go on for a while, but I need more coffee.....
  11. So what time did all of the festivities conclude yesterday......????? I waited around until 12:30 when they announced that we would have to wait 1 more hour .... Some folks that were talking said we may be able to waive to 1 hr. period, but the MD said "NO!". I hated to leave without seeing the ceremony and a possible prize or two......but I had to get back home due to child care issues. I can only imagine the comments and grumbling going on when they announced that it was time to tear down the stages !!!!!! Overall I had a great time......got to shoot with a great group of guys (go squad 10!). The range facilities were very nice and well suited to this size match. There was ample parking for another 120 shooters, should the match had filled up to capacity. I did feel like I got hosed on a call by one of the RO's, but not being one to rock the boat I did not push the issue. It was first stage one day 2, and I didn't want to put our squad behind right off the bat. Thanks to the Staff and the RO's for all your hard work......they didn't even get a chance to shoot the match !!!!! When we finished up our last stage on Sunday, one of the RO's for that stage brought out his pistol/shotgun and shot the stage just for fun !!!! Here is my vote for moving next years match to Fort Smith, AR !!!! Great bunch of guys there and a very nice range. Oh, and then there is David Hyden.......
  12. Car is loaded...., gas tank is full (thanks VISA!), and the coffee is poured.......We'll be hitting the road in a few minutes !!!! See some of you this afternoon.
  13. Looks like the attendance is gonna be way down this year....I know the economy is bad, ammo is high, gas is high, and Obama is still in the race...... But, for those who usually attend...what is your reason for not making it this year ????
  14. I would LOVE to shoot open div., but I refuse to start reloading. I've been shooting limited for about 5 years, and have yet to purchase any ammo (thanks to my employer!!!).
  15. Hell, we're in northeast Arkansas (about 60 miles from Memphis) and it came through here early this morning....A lot more than I expected. 60 mph winds for several hours. Lots of damage to trees and power lines. Makes you really feel for the folks that took the whole brunt of the storm.
  16. Well, I just finished watching the premiere episode of the Final Season of The Sheild....... Looks like it's gonna be a great season, and we'll be lucky if anyone lives through all this !!!!
  17. It's 3 days....Only one stage per squad will be shot on Sunday.
  18. This is the week we usually take a family vacation to the beach...Panama City, Destin, Gulf Shores...etc. It's a good thing we never got around to making reservations this year. Hang in there folks !!!!
  19. Correct me if I'm wrong.....but on Standards, there is no penalty for missed shots ???
  20. I wonder if you get to start,, in the prone,, and kneeling? Jim M ammo Starting position says standing....facing downrange. I would assume that means a standing start for each string. Hell, it takes me 10 seconds to get comfortable in a kneeling position !!!!!
  21. Were the loads handloads or factory rounds? If they were handloads, any idea what kind of powder he was using? thanks dj DJ, Not sure what loads he was shooting.... It wasn't his gun to begin with, so he may not know exactly what the load was.
  22. That's what I counted.......Lots more than last year !!!!!!
  23. Pretty self explanatory....... (Sorry, just realized this was in the wrong forum)
  24. I just got 1K rounds of it in last week....shot it for the first time today. It chrono'd in the upper 2800 to low 2900 FPS out of my 18" JP rifle. Didn't get a chance to shoot groups....but functioned fine.
