    I hate pepper spray.

    Okay - Got in the habit of carrying around one of those little containers, about the size of a computer mouse, in the left pocket of my winter coat... Somehow the nozzle managed to work itself out of the "safe" position and into the "oh bleep!" position. At least it didn't wait until I was...

    Disassembly of Savage 110 Bolt

    Okay - It's two 110s and a 12, but shouldn't me much different... I'm used to pulling the firing pin assembly from my Panda's bolt (Kleindorst tool) to adjust my sizing dies for minimal headspace resizing (just "feeling" the case in the chamber when the bolt is closed), and I'd like to do the...

    Stevens 235

    Okay, I've got one of these, a double with exposed hammers. The barrels have been bobbed to legal plus a little. Does anyone know where I can locate an "original length" set of barrels? And how difficult will they be to fit? I tried GPC a few years ago, and they basically said "backorder to...

    Mailorder game? Favorite recipes?

    Guys, I've lost around 105 pounds (been stalled a little while) on a low-carb diet - Which means I eat a lot of meat.* And I've been growing a little tired of the far - I mean, steaks are all well and good, but they get old after a while. Are there any places that sell "game" type meat...

    Best program for extracting sounds from a DVD?

    Guys, just got a new confuser at work, and it needs some custom "beeps." It's got a DVD drive. BTW, the DVD collection is proceeding apace... Next goal is to find a copy of Tremors 1,2,3.

    Need info on Radford #78L powder

    Bought a bunch at Knob Creek last year from Blue Sky Surplus, and promptly lost the data sheet... It was listed as being "for .223, .308 and .30-06" and appeared to be only "fair" for those cartridges - Seemed a little on the slow side. It's a long skinny stick. I'd like to give it a shot in a...

    Any of y'all have Canadian shootin' buddies?

    (or "Do you feel any safer yet?") http://www.atf.treas.gov/press/fy02press/022102newreq4nonimmigrants.htm I know folks who routinely (well, usedta routinely...) drive down for benchrest and other matches... There's a contact number at the top of that press release link. There's other...

    Yet Another Film Review: Poor White Trash

    Okay - I think this is one of those suckers that went straight to video... Some shooting, good depiction of your average "bad guy" guns, but frankly, I think that the average TFLer will most appreciate the thing for the Beer Garden scenes... I thought that portions were quite funny, and...

    Shooting club shirts?

    Okay - my boss has decided that, in order to appear more professional, I can't wear t-shirts to work anymore. Can wear "golf/polo" type shirts, as long as they've got collars... So, does anyone know where I can get some cool shirts? (sorry, but don't wanna explain "molon labe" to most of the...

    Just a thought on the "My Home Defense" thread

    Guys, if you live out in the boonies, and you have a GPS, or have a friend who has a GPS, or you actually KNOW HOW TO READ A *(&%&^$ MAP, get your grid coordinates, and write 'em on a card, and put 'em over your "emergency" telephone. That way, when you call 911, and tell 'em to send a dustoff...

    Is the political climate right?

    Guys, should we start bothering the prez and congresscritters about maybe "opening up" the CMP or DCM or whatever they call it today a little bit? Get more classifications of firearms into the system, and make 'em available? I mean, I'd LOVE to be able to buy military .45s, 9mms, semi-only ARs...

    I don't think that the stuff is as kewl as some of Oleg's stuff, but the saltlake2002 site has some nice pics of our biathlon competitors in action... Some just went on my computer...

    Yet another film review: Brother

    Directed by Takeshi Kitano. Yakuza is on losing side of gang war in Japan. Yakuza goes to America. Yakuza creates new "family." Etc. Lots of shooting - Not quite up to Woo standards, but still up there... And the story was actually pretty darn good, with some good understated acting... Very...

    Hypothetical gang attack...

    Okay - You're three yards away from four guys, each of 'em outweighing you somewhere in the area of 100 pounds... And they're rapidly closing with you, with the intent of doing great bodily harm. What do you do?

    Texas question

    Well, the NBRSA Nationals (point blank benchrest) are in Midland, Texas this year. I've heard various stories about rattlesnakes, large and ugly spiders and scorpions, etc... 1. Do you need a hunting license, or is it considered self defense? 2. If self defense, does it still taste like...

    Yet another film review...

    Moulin Rouge Rent it only if you need to score points with someone who REALLY likes bad musical chick flicks. I figure that sitting through that sucker has gotta be good for at least one other rifle...

    What to include in "Shooting Trailer"

    Okay, you know you're a gun nut when... I've decided to get one of those little trailers from Harbor Freight to facilitate my "little" trips to the range... I'm planning on building a box on top, with a fold-out loading table/bench, toolbox/drawers, etc... What else do you guys think I should...
