Everyone and everything is "on the cheap" these days. Look around. It is the norm for businesses to give as little as possible for as much return as possible. Pick up a candy bar: It has as much fluff and puff as possible and as little substantive content as can be imagined...

Although not partial to them, I have a few self-shuckers and on occasion take them to the range. On the DA's, I am aware that all of them require an initial long trigger, but on the second and subsequent shots, a releasing of the trigger only sufficient to "relatch the link" is necessary...

Excellent idea. Wish I'd thought of it. My little Etrex gets a lot of work out. Lots of people don't take advantage of the new technology. It can be a big help in certain situations. I am going to try to get our hunt club to get the new FRS radios with built in GPS capability. If...

I am considering buying a Colt .22, I am not sure of the model or designation, but it is about 30 years old and it has Stag handle grips with the golden Colt medallion in them. Do these particular grips enhance the value of the piece to any great extent ? Another .22 Colt of the same...

Being able to see with BOTH eyes greatly enhances your picture. The use of BI-ocular devices (that means something that lets you look with both eyes. Sort of like binoculars) lets you see with much greater clarity and depth. While a target is essentially a flat plane, looking with both...

Didn't that particular pony have an adjustable front sight ?

I would buy one of those in a 9 if it had about twice the tube.

I was thinking about drilling about a 1/16" hole in the barrel of my Ruger BH .30 Carbine maybe 1" to the rear of the front sight to help keep the barrel from kicking up on hot, rifle length loads. It shoots OK with mild stuff, like 4.5 grains of RD and the little 90 grain Hornady XTP, but...

Bogie, you mentioned "terrorists" in the IRA. What these "terrorists" want is their country free of foreign intervention. Would you do less if the US were invaded and a portion of it occupied by foreign forces ?

Buzz, I am aware of what Dustind was proposing. I am often of the opinion that a ridiculous assumption can best be deflected and neutralized by a copious dose of irony and , 'ala Leacock, hyperbole.

Barcoding ? Dustind you are a voice from the wilderness ! ! What a fantastic idea, a barcode imbedded in everyone's forehead and everyone having a small remote portable scanner to read anyone's barcode from 50 feet away. You could contact the Dahmers of the world if you wanted some...

Why of course you have the right, Wingman, and I might suggest, the DUTY to judge when it affects you personally. The old shower room scene that has been hashed and rehashed many times is proof of your "right" to judge. To have someone eyeing you with sexual lust and without your...

Whoami, and Buzz, are you serious that you've never seen a male that exhibited obvious (rounded figure, soft voice, breasts, etc) female characteristics ? The opposite is also very prevalent, ie, the masculine acting and dressing "female". I would suggest that obvious genetic...

Double Naught, your last paragraph is a jewell. It said it all better than anyone could hope for.

Since Tamara suggested, and rightly so, that the conversation be veered back toward the topic on the "Pink Pistols" post, and further, feeling that there was more to be discussed on the issue, I read the specs under L & P and saw that the topic should be more logically and hopefully...
