    When Handing Someone You Gun...........

    I generally put the handgun down and let them pick it up. That seems to be the safest in the situations where I practice.

    New old guy with question about gun weight

    I started using heavier guns. Started shooting more. Started exercising more. Strength, lost to "old age", can be regained enough to enjoy similar activities once again. When the doctor sends a patient to physical therapy it is to strengthen weak parts and, usually, less used parts. Old people...

    I lost my shooting buddy.

    Really? Maybe there are other reasons but he doesn't know how to tell you. And he's using one that works and doesn't hurt. Regardless, he gets to choose what he does. Sad for you, sorry.

    How do you account for the resurgence in popularity of revolvers and lever action rifles?

    "How do you account for the resurgence in popularity of revolvers and lever action rifles?" 1. Some people find them fun to shoot. 2. Joe Biden's BATFE is outlawing every semi-automatic firearm. The lever rifles and revolvers will stay legal the longest. The SA revolvers will stay legal...

    The new USPS mail delivery truck

    It is an EV! Check the USPS website and the pictures they publish. It will work great during the hot summer temperatures in the South and Southwest. It will work great during the cold winters of New England, the Mid-west, and the Pacific West. Great things coming! More email, cell phone calls...

    Medicare annoyance

    I knew a Christian Youth Minister who kept a Bible near the phone. (This was in the day of real landlines.) When any of his family SPAM. SCAM, harassing calls, they would start reading the 3rd chapter of the book of Romans (New Testament). He said no caller made it to the end of the chapter...

    Cemetery Etiquette

    I cry and ask God to bless them. If they are military, I ask God to thank them for me. The person is important. The dead body and the grave are emblems of the person for those living today. The dead really aren't concerned. IMHE

    What is your minimum comfort zone for brass stock?

    I try to practice/shoot twice a week. If I feel bad, I shoot around 100 a session but, if I feel normal, I shoot around 200. If I feel better-than-normal, I shoot 250-300. The last time I went shooting with a family member, we went through 1,200 rounds in a weekend. 500-1,000 doesn't last...

    Air Freshener

    Just put some Hoppes #9 in your diffuser while you're gone. Don't have a difusser? I never would have guessed.

    Ketchup poll

    Did you read the bottle's label? Probably says, "Refrigerate After Opening". Now the manufacturer may be over cautious or run by their legal depart or the FDA but it still recommend frigeration. Plus a running difference of 49 years about ketchup/catsup with one's wife just isn't worth it, is...

    Reacher (Alan Richson) poops the bed.....

    Certain Law Enforcement Officers do gets away with murder. It's a known fact. 2 police or deputies in my community let a 65 year old woman die in the back of the "paddy wagon" knowing that we was in physical destress. It's really easy to find. Arizona's ABC15 TV station has investigative...

    Life long question?

    Neil Diamond was way cooler than Barry Manilow. He certainly could put on a great live show and knew how to work an audience. He attracted a much younger audience and kept them his whole career. If you know you know.

    Question about who is responsible for stolen car accident?

    First Trials are not required is the arrestee waives extradition. Some choose not to spend money on the costs of that type of legal fight which may end with a loss and being incarcerated during the legal/court process. Sometimes it is just cheaper and quicker not to exercise rights.
