  1. Shouldn't this be on PPP! Nevermind, you said LIPS.
  2. I saw an H&K military style rifle that was screaming for me to take it home last time I was in the gun shop. I was a little scared that if I took a close look I would have made a stupid purchase so I am not sure of the model. I'm a big fan of H&K!
  3. I like Butler at RT. I couldn't find the college video of his hit on Kiwanuka, but that would probably satisfy the nasty requirement!
  4. Mitchell is a below average player with an above average ego. I really can't stand him and hope he never suits up for the Bills again. Thanks for yet another tweet that will make Buffalo look bad.
  5. Many AR-15 type guns now have removable handles or no handle at all. This is mainly due to the popularity of attaching optics to the rail on top of the receiver. Many people like to have flip up iron sights in case the optics are damaged or knocked out of alignment. My AR has the typical front sight, but I have removed the carry handle and rear sight. I'm a Federal or Gold Dot guy myself, I used to carry Silvertips in my .32 auto though. According to the research that I have done, the Federal HSTs are the best handgun ammo option available for self defense now.
  6. I have a Bushmaster, but I have never used a flip up sight. I have an Eotech on it right now. I have been thinking of purchasing a flip up rear sight though in case of mechanical failure with the Eotech. For any questions regarding AR-15s I go to ar15.com. They also have links to many of the best vendors. I have had good experiences with purchases from Brownells.com and Sogarmory.com.
  7. I heard they were also planning a "non-patriotic" 4th of July and a "pro-unemployment" labor day.
  8. Did you ever see "The Man Who's Arms Exploded" ? Pretty sick stuff.
  9. I can respect the decision not to eat meat (or any other food for that matter). It was the "manliness" thing that prompted my response. I would certainly never try to pressure someone into hunting their own food and it sounds like you have a similair outlook on vegetarianism. I will say though, if one chooses to eat meat, you will have a whole new appreciation for the meal once you have harvested an animal and butchered it yourself. I know this is not for everyone, but many hunters have a respect and admiration for the animals they hunt that you don't get from picking out a steak at Wegmans. I can assure you that the deer I have killed have been taken in the most humane way possible. I would never take a risky or difficult shot and most hunters that I know feel the same way.
  10. Let me ask you a question, do you pass judgement on other carnivores like cats, wolves, fish, etc, or do they get a bye because they don't have self-rightous members of their species to tell them that millions of years of evolution and nature are totally wrong about their diet?
  11. I love the sound of vinyl, but I'm finding that I really don't use my turntable enough. I'm thinking of selling it if I can get a decent price. I have a Rega 2 that I bought a couple years ago. http://www.needledoctor.com/Rega-P2-Turnta...mp;category=353
  12. In my younger days I had several speeding tickets and every one of them was reduced by talking to the DA prior to the court appearance. (This was over 10 years ago). Ask to speak to the DA and find out if they are willing to reduce the ticket. They will often reduce to something like "failure to obey a traffic device" or at least lower the speed violation to 65 in a 55. You would then plead guilty to the lower violation. Good Luck.
  13. Had on last night at 2am at Jimmy Tahous. Still paying for it this morning.
  14. Not really. Most coyotes do seem pretty scrawny around my area though. http://www.adfg.state.ak.us/pubs/notebook/furbear/coyote.php Coyotes average 22 to 33 pounds (10-15 kg) or about one-third the size of wolves. Males are slightly heavier than females. Coyotes average 2 feet high (.6 m) at the shoulder and, including tail, are approximately 4 feet (1.2 m) long. http://www.holoweb.com/cannon/racoon.htm Raccoons (Procyon Lotor) are medium sized animals, 12 - 35 + lbs. and 20 - 40 inches long
  15. Would you rather stare down an 8 foot tall moose or a 25 pound coyote? So many choices would have been better.
  16. Coyote? I'm pretty sure my dog could kick a coyote's ass. I still don't understand how 2 coyotes could kill that chick a few months ago. I've got those things (coyotes not folk singers) behind my house and most of them aren't much bigger than a raccoon.
  17. The pussification of America continues.
  18. Are there still people out there who believe criminals will heed a "no guns allowed" policy? This particular gun free zone policy may have cost many soldiers their lives. "Among President Clinton's first acts upon taking office in 1993 was to disarm U.S. soldiers on military bases. In March 1993, the Army imposed regulations forbidding military personnel from carrying their personal firearms and making it almost impossible for commanders to issue firearms to soldiers in the U.S. for personal protection." "Because of Mr. Clinton, terrorists would face more return fire if they attacked a Texas Wal-Mart than the gunman faced at Fort Hood, home of the heavily armed and feared 1st Cavalry Division. That's why a civilian policewoman from off base was the one whose marksmanship ended Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan's rampage. " http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/n...y-base-gun-ban/
  19. Crazy German Shorthaired Pointer and a fat old Golden Retriever. http://i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss22/jearnst/oscar4.jpg http://i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss22/jearnst/oscar2.jpg http://i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss22/jearnst/oscar1.jpg
  20. Saw that this morning. I was looking forward to watching the showdown tonight.
  21. Your employer wouldn't punish you for repeatedly publicly making an ass out of yourself? Most jobs expect their employees to conduct themselves in a certain manner. It's not "facist", it's simply common sense.
  22. So a semi-automatic 9mm or .223 is overkill just because it looks scary, but a shotgun that could punch a fist sized hole through somebody is an appropriate response to an intruder? Personally I love having my Mossberg Persuader shotgun as my main home protection gun, but certainly not because it isn't "overkill". I have an AR-15 too there is no question which gun will do more damage within 20 yards. (it's not the scary looking one). Other than being much more accurate, reliable and easy to conceal, a common 9mm pistol is really no different than an uzi or tec 9 since NY already has laws banning magazines that can hold more than 10 rounds and automatic weapons (very few exceptions).
