I think they are by and large decent. I also think it’s worth saving money for another couple weeks to get a higher quality firearm, I’m boojie like that though.

I’ve taken 7 at ranges varying from 32yds to 256yds. I’m comfortable under 300 and set myself up for those shots.

I posted that from Macomb, IL. Was in town for a wedding.

DA/SA is the modern stick. 1911 is more of a non synchromesh experts won’t need to double clutch, feeling the rhythm and floating the gears of life.

I’m liking my cans. One thing I will tell people is that a lot of the utility is lost at a range if everyone else is not suppressed. Generally speaking I don’t have that problem, but I certainly have ear pro available on every range trip. But, if you never find yourself alone, there are better...

Good point, maybe these will convince Ruger there is a market.

This Ruger Single Seven scratches the itch and is of a higher quality. Knowing how fun that is I’d certainly give it a try.

It’s like making a deal between you and a buddy about the bass boat in your drive. It’s all looking real positive till your buddy goes to clear it by the wife, she’s hated you since you threw up on her wedding dress at the reception. Some people hold a grudge.

Getting a second one for your wife’s Beenie Baby collection can free up a bunch of room in your gun safe. Do some research on the fire capabilities before you let that feature get too far into your calculus. Opening the safe to only find charcoal steel that has had the temper removed, let’s...

I grew up with noon whistle and 9 o’clock curfew whistle as well. I’d be happy to hear that here in Herterville as well.

A sliding scale of maturity seems wrong. We trust you to vote, fight, drive, get married, smoke, and determine your gender, shooting, yea that’s ok too. Drinking at the bar or buying a gun? Nope not that, you need to use dads guns and find a hobo to get that sixer for you. Ridiculous

Point shooting… Traditional archers, will quickly point out that many sight shooters in the heat of the moment don’t use the sights. They find the correct feel and let fly, and if that’s the case why bother, just leave the sights on the work bench, and focus all efforts on shooting without. I...

Exactly, my kids were pretty stunned when winter came that first year. I told them to quit crying, “there’s an entire country north of here”. I’m not so sure I could do summer down there. I’m a big ol’ gringo built for comfort not speed.

Strangely I have quit using cash for daily expenses while at the same time keeping much more currency for emergency use. Went on a CO hunting trip with a group. The country had some sort of financial emergency and all the cards were locked down. For some reason I had decided to take cash...

I’m probably sweating more. I’m perhaps not moving as much snow. Moving from Il to MN a couple decades ago means I’m used to warmer climates than the typical Minnesotan. I try to reassure them that life will go on without -25 degree weeks and 95 degrees while horrible is not the he’ll they fear.

I read these things and I’m left with this. I don’t talk to anyone now, who am I concerned with communicating with if things get sideways? I already have trust issues. Can I trust the short wave any more than regular broadcast news? I was raised and I raised my kids to be pretty self reliant...

Warning shots? Gentlemanly thing to do.

Big hail, sloughs on fire, and multiple tornadoes. This morning woke up to find some snow on the roofs. Turned the furnace back on Friday, Im guessing it’ll be A/C by Wednesday.

South of I-64 there will be no questions about the “damn yankee” line having been crossed. The avatar says it all 😎
