Comments: Now I know why you have become so well behaved Dale!  Actually, I like to shoot guns. When I was pre-teen & early teens my Dad wd let me shoot his 22 when we visited our friends in Lancaster. That's before they're farm was incorporated into the city limits. Dad & his friend wd drink beer & when they had enough cans they'd stack 'em up & let me shoot them. I don't like to kill things . . . I prefer cans. I'm sure Jack & JD are shuddering at their keyboard thinking abt SNL with a 22 or the sweet 16 offered by Buddy!!  
Comments: Yuvonne shoots a Winchester 270 deer rifle with a 3x-9x variable Leupold scope, a 20 gauge Remington model 1100 vent rib shotgun and carries a 2-shot Derringer in her purse.(loaded- cause an unloaded gun is just a club!) I'm almost always on my best behavior.
Comments: Linda, sounds like you may have a collectors piece there. Is it the old single action "Peacemaker" model or the newer double action? The older (first production was about 1873) Peacemakers go for between $1550 and $2500 right now. The double actions are generally about $500 to $700. As with most things, condition plays a big part. Cal 41 is an odd bird now days and I imagine ammo is a little hard to come by. Depending on your purposes, you might consider moving to a more modern caliber. Lots of great debates on the pros and cons of each. Richard, I just knew you'd figure it out!!!
Comments: You guys have an opinion on a Colt 41? Otherwise, you're far too advanced in weaponery. Most of what you talk about, I've never heard of.
Comments: I looked at HR 45...seems fairly intrusive. But, what does it have to do with Obama. Here's how it works JD...there's a separation of powers in the country...you know (judicial, congress, executive branch). The "HR" stand for House of Representatives (Congress). This was a bill introduced by a congressman (one that I doubt will get very far in its present form) on Jan.6 of this year...hasn't gone to Obama..he has nothing to do with it. In fact, Bush was the President when it was introduced...blame him. You're going wild again my friend. By the by, I was only kidding when I said we should start a gun control debate. This group is too well armed for me to take on.
Comments: RN...don't know about Obama's attack on the 2nd Amendment? Go find HR 45...
Comments: Jack - The Springfield Armory XD has been a popular semi-automatic for several years. Kathy has a 9mm sub-compact & I have a 40cal. tactical. I wish we had waited for the XD-M, but didn't know they were coming when we bought ours. However, we're still both very pleased with our purchases. Greg came home from Iraq & liked shooting ours so much at the range that he also bought 2 XD's, a 40 sub & a 45 svc model. http://www.springfield-armory.com/xd.php
Comments: I was watching a Nova program on PBS this evening & noticed Frontline was coming up afterward with something about 'The Warning' & the financial meltdown that has wreaked havoc across our nation for the last year or so. This spans at least 3 Whitehouse administrations, predates Enron & is undoubtedly another tip of an iceberg involving the relationships between big business, lobbyists, regulators & politicians. If true, it pretty much explains why financial thievery has flourished for the last 20 yrs or so in the stock market. If you have 55 min. to spare, click on the link for 'Watch The Full Program Online'. Not only are these people not in jail, some are still in powerful positions. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/warning/
Comments: Only one news outlet today that ask questions of this administration besides "what did you have for breakfast Mr President". Maybe that is why they are watched more than 2 to 1 by all news outlets combine. If the White House would respond with answers their rating would fade away. Or even a law suit on false statements. If Freedom of Speech is taken away we need General Washington back in the saddle. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wF2C235fD7o&NR=1
Comments: I don't know why people are so worried about Obama. After all he looks so cute in his MOM JEANS!
Comments: PS it is sort of a joke.
Comments: Richard, just read it. You should know me better than that !--but there seems to be something to the tactic taken by the author--or not! Just an interesting possibility.
Comments: The last of the 10-3 party pics from KRL are posted. Last 4 are of the BMF Charity Golf Tourney. Look under " Get-Togethers 2009" pg. Buddy - Thanks, I'll take that sweet 16 under advisement. 
Comments: Sally, I used to trade commodities a lot, including gold. I was what is known as a "technical trader", which would make Southworth shudder. But, I've been out of it for a while and I don't have a feel for that market. I would think however, that gold and the dollar (they have an inverse relationship) would be a bit volatile these days...maybe not. That link you pasted...I don't know what it's supposed to do. I see it references Glen Beck. I hope you don't think I'd take advice, financial or otherwise from that idiot.
Comments: Richard, seems you should buy gold. I'm sure others have and it seems to be working. Of course everything else is also. http://www.salon.com/news/feature/2009/10/19/glenn_beck/index.html?source=rss&aim=/news/feature |
