    I lost my shooting buddy.

    Pick him up, go eat breakfast or lunch, do your wives shopping and enjoy the time. It doesn't have to be about shooting.

    How helicopters fly

    This is the only helicopter I've been in. It had a small but consistent vibration that made me happy when we landed an hour later. I was expecting a smoother ride. I was afraid it would set off my vertigo before we landed.

    Watch out for the pigs

    I remember reading a gun rag about 50 years ago about going hog hunting with a handgun, kinda out of the ordinary back then. The author talked about always taking a long gun with you so when you pissed off the hog you would have something to stick in the ground and climb to get away from it...

    SOLD Bucket of wheel weights WNC

    I have a bucket of dirty wheel weights. There is other junk in there, I've not gone through it, it's just like it came from the tire store. I've had it forever and figured I'm not getting into casting now. The scales say the bucket and all is 78 lbs. I would think there is 40-50 lbs of lead. I...

    Does your wife carry?

    Mine would carry but she would never pull it out and use it if needed, so why bother?

    How would you spend your life if you knew you only had months to go"

    I think most people forget that we are all born with a death sentence, we don't know the when or the how it will all end. My plan is to live everyday if it was my last, treat people in a way that they will miss me when I'm gone and enjoy as much of this world in the process.

    Don't try to steal a purse from the wrong chic.

    It's hard to body slam someone when you are getting your face pounded in. I'm sure he is going to feel all of that in the morning.

    Security Six grip screw

    I have a SS with the small factory grips and finally found a set of the larger factory grips to replace them. I need a slightly longer screw for the thicker grips, probably about 1/8" longer than the one for the small grips. Where could I find one? Are screws from different manufactures the...
