Gentlemen: The old "M16 made by Mattel" canard/myth came from a Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In sketch. A few of the Laugh-In Players portrayed men in US Infantry uniforms acted like their rifles were jamming. One actor blurted out "My M16 was made by... Mattel?" I remember watching it on KVAL-TV...

The original frames had become warped, and the bridge had been fatigued. Thank God, I made it to the Optical Department at the VA Hospital Great people.

Correction: The VA sent me a new set of frames, with "placeholder" (non-prescription) lenses.

Bathing is not optional.

PLEASE, no flash photography!

Works for me!

D'oh!

The bridge of my glasses broke, and I had a friend perform an emergency repair, soldering them together. I got to the VA and the Optometric Department replaced the frames within 7 minutes (crisis averted.) Today, I received a new pair of glasses in the mail. (It has been a week since the...

I just received a notice in the mail that told me my deodorant had a massive recall! Go figure.

If you want a .380, that Beretta is being sold at a "bargain" price. If all else fails you can have the barrel replaced (the Accokeek, MD factory should be able to supply a fresh one.) A good 'smith should be able to install it. New springs, an extractor, and some refinishing should bring it up...

I have three .380 ACP DA/SA pistols (two Bersa Thunders and a CZ 82.) The Beretta is nice, and of good quality, but I don't need another.

I was going back to Internal Medicine, when I discovered the Proctologist was once a Photographer! (Say cheese!)

And wisely so. The FMJ, loaded to the proper OAL, avoids the dreaded "rim lock" that can get you killed in a life-threatening situation.

ABSOLUTELY! IMHO, ignore the "you need a hollow point load to be effective" nonsense. I have five .32 ACP handguns. Your very best bet is to buy a "European" level FMJ load. Look up how well the Fiocchi 73-grain "blue box" FMJ load penetrates from a 2.5" barrel (on Lucky Gunner's tests form...

"The Men's Department" is down the passageway and to your port side... Keep looking. 😛

She should have been sentenced to 36 months. (It would have done her a world of good.)

Sometimes it happens. We love each other as brothers and sisters in uniform.

Still works in my Ruger SR-15 (5.56).

Turn your ID card over and it reads "Department of the Navy". So there! 😛

Until you call in for an air strike from the carrier deck!
