Yes, I'll buy more guns because of forums. When I first came here, I owned 1 pistol, and was content with that. I now own two pistols and have a wish list of about ten other guns I want.

Just as larry_minn said. Trust Your Instincts I avoided a carjacking because my brain perked up and said "Something is not right with this picture." Dec, 2000. It was about 11:00 PM. I was getting into a car parked on the street. Another car turned onto my street and stopped halfway up...

LiquidTension, I feel your pain about the dent (see above). On another note, what can be done to camouflage and otherwise 'marked' vehicle?

GigaBuist, You're not such a wierd case. My left eye is 20/20 corrected. My right eye is 20/100 corrected. I am, however, strongly right-eye dominant out to about 15-20 yards (inside this distance, my left eye is just staring blankly off to space) :confused: Autolite, I was just curious...

I'm liking what I've seen on the web so far from both Savage and Winchester. Now I just need to find one to try/rent. I sense a trip to a rifle range coming up soon. :D

The whole point of being an adult is to accept responsibility for ones actions. Society deems that children, on the other hand, don't have the life experience to fully understand the consequences of their actions. I'll admit that defining adulthood as a matter of age is arbitrary, but an...

Autolite, Have you shot longguns left hand/left eye with any success?

I'll have to learn to keep both eyes open, *especially* at intermediate pistol distances. 25yds ... left hand left eye is marginally more accurate. 40-50% inside the 5-ring RH 45-55% inside the 5-ring LH 7yds ... right hand right eye is much much more accurate. 80-85%...

tc300mag1, thanks!

Are there any good bolt action rifles tailored for a left-handed shooter? I know very little about the various rifle manufacturers, and wouldn't have the slightest clue where to begin looking for a good one.

Does anyone else close one eye when shooting? I find that I can't get both my left and right eyes to focus properly on the sights when shooting. The only way I seem to get reasonable accuracy is by closing the weak side eye while aiming. I was wondering if this was "normal". If it isn't...

All my buddies from UIUC have since moved far far away.

Hell yes, I'm a target! :( 1999 Integra GS-R, dark green. Almost everyone with a tricked out Honda Civic wants the motor out of *my* car. At least I can screech away. A few years back (Dec, 2000, IIRC) some "interesting character" attempted to carjack me while I was driving a Chevy...

I'd have put skunkabilly on the red card. On another note, just bought a new suit. The front pockets of the jacket were partially divided vertically. My first thought ... "built in mag holsters, cool!"

I said goodbye to UIUC 5.5 years ago, memory is beginning to fade tho ... I didn't know about the CCRA either while I was there (kicks self). The armory range was GONE by the time I arrived. I do recall visiting an archery range on campus a couple of times. I'll try to locate a couple of...
