Also, we ended racism in the South 40 years ago. This fucked generation we spawned resurrected it and gave it a crack pipe.
No doubt, thanks. I was more trying to show how you have to lean into these little demons to keep them from walking off target.
Here's my first gun and I still have it 50+ years later.
I started on a .410 shotgun around second or third grade, it was necessary to help protect our poultry farm on the edge of a swamp. I graduated to a 12 gauge around the age of 13, and never owned a rifle of any kind until I was older. I owned my first .357 revolver before ever owning a .22 rimfire rifle. It was a cultural thing from the time and place where I grew up.
I quit shopping there shortly after they came into existence, I couldn't stand the place. I have a highly educated Delaware Yankee brother in law that won't shop anywhere else, then brings the stuff to me to make it work because the store staff is clueless. I don't get it.
I reckon so.
I got into a screaming match with my wife of 38 years last night because she asked me to drive her to get her second shot. Why did she ask me to drive her? Because she was afraid of anaphylactic shock following the second injection. Why the fuck would you voluntarily take something that scares you that bad?
It needs training wheels.
I went to an Ace last Saturday, and it's in a town with a mask mandate. I didn't wear a mask and they didn't say a word. Some customers were wearing masks, but most weren't. Nobody was hassling anybody. I live in the deep South, where we tend to be polite and not fuck around to find out.
Closer to 1977. The town it's in never had a mask mandate. We went to sunrise service yesterday morning and the place was packed, only one mask and it was on an elderly person recovering from cancer surgery.
(((every fucking time)))
Our closest big box store is >20 miles away in a very blue city, but sometimes I just have to go there for certain things. I much prefer the old hardware/feed & seed/liquor store that's in the small town nearby. They not only don't require masks, but you can smoke in the store. There's not a lot of variety when you're looking for something, but they almost always have something that'll work and it's not overpriced. The owner also has a bunch of parrots that live in the store, which is interesting.
I own revolvers and semi auto pistols. There's just something about revolvers I'm just more comfortable with.
I'm a big fan of .45ACP in revolvers, I have a Taurus 455 is is a real pleasure to shoot. Extraction is not a big deal to me.
The latest issue of American Rifleman has this article of interest...

I've been married to the same woman for 40 years. I've had severe tinnitus for over 30 years. It's not an affliction depending on your situation.
Edit: What?
Yep, I have a 1943 Inland M1 carbine, I can't hit shit with that ghost ring sight. /s
Might as well, what the hell.
This is me, I lost my best friends (two of them) over this, and my wife of 40 years gives me hell over it. I don't care, I will not bury the hatchet this time for anyone.
This is excellent. Those labels are almost impossible to peel off after a short period. A shot of spray polyurethane would seal the deal so to speak.
Correct.
