    Here's a strange question

    By the way, one "tungsickle" from orbit and anything is history.

    Here's a strange question

    Hey Cary, if they can't carry a conversation without getting but hurt and trying to belittle people, the f%#@ em! People that just want to cause trouble should get a real life and try some experience instead of living their life being told what to believe by somebody else. Carriers are tough...

    If money was not an issue. Would you move to another state?

    Amen brother. Oklahoma is the best place to be. If I moved. It would not be to another state. Possibly another country as what we have now sure is not what I grew up with and is getting worse every day. And it is our fault, the people.

    A rare occurrence yesterday

    I agree. I completely understand that it is the right of anyone to open carry. I don't think that it is the smart thing to do in every situation. I know many people do this for the shock value, to scare people. This hurts our efforts and gives fuel to the anti gun groups we fight every day...

    Anyone carry a tactical or large folding knife?

    Always carry a Case pocket knife but I sometimes carry my Benchmade or my Zero Tolerance, depending on the situation. The Zero Tolerance I carry in big crowds where I cannot conceal carry. It runs a close second but never underestimate a Case Trapper or one with a whitler blade. Razor sharp and...

    Older vehicles, ethanol blended gas

    I accidentally put some e gas in my Honda Aero 98, look up the "potato" law suit between Harley and Honda. I went to turn at a boulevard intersection and it dumped me on the street when it missed as I turned. I don't know what the rules are today but a few years back, 10 or so, no motorcycle...

    Older vehicles, ethanol blended gas

    You can buy a pre blended fuel at most hardware stores for chainsaws, weed eaters and tools that use that type of fuel. NOT CHEAP! but it sure makes the equipment run many times better with kore power, higher revving engine and better fuel consumption. I thought my buddy was crazy until I tried...

    Using 38 Special components in 357 Magnum brass

    Extra space in a case can bause over pressure, dangerous over pressure. I heard some folks do what your talking about and adding a buffer to take up the space. So be cateful and let us know how it goes!

    Regular vs. Magnum Primers

    More open space and a mag primer can cause too much pressure, that is why I like my rifle recipes and any pistol that can, to have as close to a compressed load. My handgun and shotgun loads I try to do the same but .45 ACP can't really be done that way.

    Ruger Mini 14 Oklahoma State Highway Patrol

    That may be, my connection is with a lieutenant on the lake patrol. He was issued the rifle but his was select fire. From what he told me then most of the rifles were standard law enforcement semi auto but a few were semi, 3 shot burst and full auto. Saw a you tube video on the full auto that...

    Want to get my 12 year old into shooting - What Ruger rifle should I purchase?

    Browning and Marlin make very nice lever action rifles. The 39a (?) Marlin is a great take down from many years ago. The Browning is just slicker than a puppies #^=÷!#, testiculars!

    Want to get my 12 year old into shooting - What Ruger rifle should I purchase?

    All the above or a bolt action if you want to teach them restraint on wasting ammunition. The Ruger or Savage bolt actions are great fir the price. If price is not a problem, a Anshutz is always nice and there are many very nice unbelievable accuracy .22s out there.

    Extended mag release

    The scores that hold the extended release to the release button need a little lockstep just so they don't back off. The picture from this morning was a working job but still touching up and finishing to make it look good. Basically a little bit bigger release but mostly cosmetic. Looks cool as I...
