  1. You haven’t watched that yet? Slim Pickens was great in that movie.
  2. So if I fly I’m going to get an STD? At least I’ll have fun getting it.
  3. Your dogs will alert you to people on the property though won’t they? At any rate my response to your PM dealt with your tenants protecting themselves and securing their home. I think it’s safe to say they were unable or unwilling to do any of those things. For YOU and your wife, my advice is going to be different on the self defense tools side of things. 1.) Sign up for a class specific to the type of firearm(s) you want to defend your home. 2.) Now that you are committed to training go acquire said firearm(s), and ammo. Good luck BTW... 3.) Attend class and learn to run your gun, and its capabilities in your hands. General guidelines for a gun you might have to fight with in your home, in addition to being reliable these are mandatory: 1.) It needs to have a light on it, shooting at shit in the dark is a bad idea. Even if you use the light on your gun to find a light switch that’s better than hucking projectiles down the hall in the damn dark. 2.) If it’s a handgun you need a good holster, if it’s a long gun it needs a good sling. 3.) The gun needs to have sights you can actually see and use easily. Personally I am not a pump action shotgun fan, I strongly prefer auto loaders. If a shotty for home defense is what I was after I would get this with all the options, put a sling on it, and a light, and a red dot sight. Then I would feed it Federal Flight Control 8 pellet 00 buck loads. https://www.langdontactical.com/ltt-1301-shotgun-preorder-currently-closed/
  4. A shotgun at 8’ is basically a rifle in your house. Whoever told you that 8’ was max effective range for a 12 gauge is a moron.

That will be an eye opening experience.
  5. Our new dog is now 2 years old. He is quite fond of snow. A long day of playing in the snow had him and the boy worn out and chilling out that night. Tired dogs and tired kids, are good dogs and kids. host a pic
  6. You and your facts and logic. Pshhhh.
  7. He also effectively proved that the Patriots are mediocre without him.
  8. Using parts, specifically an unknown aftermarket LED light, that was not designed to work with the fuse panel, wiring harness, and other electrical controls on your car.
  9. No no no no. Keep your old car batteries for the lead. Dump the acid into your neighbor's lawn, then take the lead plates out to use for melting down and casting into bullets the government doesn't want you to have, or for mixing into old left over paint to sell by the pound. I also hear the city of Flint, MI will buy lead; something to do with their municipal water system.
  10. None, IKEA stuff is so weak it dissolves in water.
  11. Probably a question you do NOT want to know the answer to....LOL Yeah I don’t ask questions.
  12. No, what’s racist is that none of the other races have a designated history month at all.
  13. What? February is great! Black History month you racist cracker!
  14. Yep. F them. I don't even think the Reddit crowd cares if they lose money. Good for them. I hope they rinse and repeat this shit until short selling dip shit hedge fund managers all suck start a pistol or jump off the roof of their penthouse.
  15. Same thing happened to my in-laws about 6 years ago, their place outside Springfield, MO was on the market for a day and there was a bidding war. They were NOT prepared to move that fast.
  16. Congrats. Market in the Black Hills is also hot. No desire to move for us though, 50 yards or so from the biggest park in town, and 3000sq-ft 5 beds, 3 bath, an office, and reloading/gun room with a 2 car garage is enough right now. Yard is basically useless since we’re on the side of a steep hill that turns into a cliff overlooking the river and downtown area. Bought for $225K, and now told it’s probably worth around $360K or a bit more.
  17. Depending on what state and what city you are in a shotgun might be a top choice. Shotgun fights don't last very long: with the right load, at appropriate distances a single center mass hit with a 12 gauge shot running 00 buck of 2-3/4" or 3" magnum loads is going to pretty much be a fight stopper. Depending on the load we're talking about 9-15 .32" pellets at 1200-1250fps, at typical in home distances they're going to pattern in about the size of your open hand or fist at the most. So you get that centered up hit and you have effectively shot Baddy McBadface 9-15 times all at once. Some of the new flight control wads give patterns that are going to keep all your pellets in a pretty decent group out to 25 yards. If I have a choice between a 9mm, .300 BLK, and a 12 gauge with an appropriate choke for buckshot or cylinder bore barrel and a good 00 buck load, and I know some dirt bag wants to pay me a visit at 0300, I'm grabbing the shotty.
  18. My brother bought a Skorpion and SBR’d it so now it’s NFA. His money, whatever. If I do that I’ll just SBR my KAC SR-15 and buy a KAC 11.5” upper and a suppressor.
  19. Sadly yes old and chronically ill people die, and are more likely than the at large population to die of all causes not related to accidents etc.
  20. That headline is misleading. It implies that all persons who got COVID-19 are part of the sample, but reading the article you find it is a study of persons with severe cases who had to be hospitalized. I’d love to see the breakdown on the sample group, the ages, and other pre-existing health conditions. I’ll bet it’s mostly old people, and that many of them have other health issues. So get the **** out of here with the cherry picked misleading data set and sensationalized headline. If it were accurate it would read: “Elderly and sick COVID patients who were hospitalized at higher risk of being hospitalized again because old people are the most likely group to be hospitalized for all causes.”
  21. She claims that he was, there is of course a chance she picked it up elsewhere around the same timeframe. At any rate she is feeling better, and so are her friends. I suspect the appliance install guy having it was coincidental, since her friends also got COVID-19 around the same time as my mom. She wouldn’t have been actively shedding virus that soon. I would bet they all got it at the same time out screwing around doing whatever it is three 60+ year old retired women go do.
  22. Talked to my mom yesterday said she was feeling better and should be done with quarantine by Wednesday or Thursday this coming week. Said she had a low fever for a few days, cough, and reduced sense of smell and taste. I guess she got it from a guy who installed some new appliances, he ended up positive a day after doing the work.
  23. So my mom and a couple of her friends have been diagnosed with COVID-19. So far she just has cold like symptoms, hopefully it gets no worse than that.
  24. Oh I just remembered you need to get an intercooler for your turbo kit, and a blow off valve. Just be mindful to not get soap on the intercooler.
  25. Didn’t mean to hurt your feels snowflake. PM LegGTLT he can help with your account.
