We're having a cold snap tonight, around 10 degrees, and tomorrow night down to around 7 degrees. Monday we may have freezing rain/sleet, and up to three or so inches of snow. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> That's plenty enough winter weather for me! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/11/12 03:03 PM

I got an email yesterday and thought I would share it. IT IS NOT a "Political" agenda on my part. We need to watch for, be aware of these indicators no matter who is in power. I do not care if it is the Republicans, Democrats, Libertarian or the little men from mars party. Corruption and wrongdoing is corruption and wrongdoing, no matter WHO is doing it.

Keep your eyes and ears open, and use your mind. Watch out for the threat from within!

Mods, if this violates anything, please feel free to delete it or let me know and I will. And If it does violate anything I apologize for posting it.

I don't know when this was written. It could have been yesterday or 50 years ago.

Randy

Here's something to think about . . . .

I remember asking dad about Castro when I was about 9 years old. I asked , "Is Castro a good guy or bad?"

Dad said he couldn't tell!! This was about 1955. We were living in Louisiana at the time . Dad was in the army there.

Cuba was fairly close and in the news a lot. The Cubans were asking the same question! Ike was president.

This past July, we had the pleasure of sharing a summer barbecue with a refugee from Cuba. Our dinner conversation was starkly different than most.

This refugee came to the United States as a young boy in the early 1960s. His family was more fortunate than most as they were able to bring a suitcase and $100 when they fled Castro's newly formed revolutionary paradise.

Our dinner consisted of all-American fare: hamburgers, potato salad, watermelon and fresh ears of sweet corn. This is a menu shared with family and friends nationwide, while celebrating the birth of our beloved America on the Fourth of July.

We began with a simple discussion about our country and the direction it has taken. We shared the usual complaints about the sour economy and liberal social engineering emanating from the rulers in Washington.

But then he said it. The sentence came naturally. I assume it was unplanned. But it carried the weight of a freight train. "You know when Castro took power, none of us knew he was a Communist."

We sat stunned. He continued, "Yes, we all thought he was a patriot, a nationalist. Before the revolution he didn't sound like a radical."

The comparison at this point was easy, and I interjected, You mean just like..?

He responded, Yes, just like....

He continued, "We were all shocked as the government just continued to grab more power. First they said the revolution is over, so please turn in your guns. We all complied."

"I remember my uncle saying after it started, 'Castro will only nationalize some of the big industries, he will never come and take our family hardware store. 'But that is exactly what happened, Castro started with the sugar mills and the large industries, but they eventually came and knocked on the door of our family hardware store. My family had run this store for generations. They said we now own the hardware store, you work for us. And that nice, large four-bedroom home you own, it is now our property also, and you can move yourself and five children into two rooms of the house because others are moving in with you."

The lesson learned from this discussion is a lesson most Americans refuse to hear. Political leaders can lie about their agenda and once in office they can take totally unexpected turns.

If you had asked us three years ago if we thought General Motors would be nationalized, we would have never believed it. We could never contemplate a country where the rule of law, the most fundamental building block of a justice society would be evaporating just like it did in Castro's Cuba in the early 1960s.

But the news of injustice keeps increasing. Black Panthers are not charged with wrongdoing by the U.S. Department of Justice. The bondholders of GM are stripped of their assets without due process by the government. Governmental leaders are bribed in full daylight only to have all investigation of the crimes stifled by the Attorney General. The U.S. borders are overrun with crime and illegal activity and the leaders in D.C. act as if it is important to protect the lawbreakers while the innocent are killed and overrun. When local communities attempt to enforce the law, they are ridiculed and threatened as racists and bigots. They are sued by the very administration entrusted with enforcing the law.

Without the rule of law the U.S. Constitution is a sham. Without the rule of law our beloved America is swiftly becoming a country where only the well connected and politically powerful will be safe. As Michelle Malkin has so eloquently explained in her recent book, a culture of corruption has replaced honest government.

The only way this problem will be fixed is by massive citizen action. All honest citizens that want to be treated equally must come together and demand that the favoritism, the bribes, the uneven enforcement of law end now. And yes, it can happen here.

May GOD save the United States of America!

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/11/12 03:18 PM

I am worried about our Nation. I do not approve of our present leaders, not because of their political party (I don't care what party someone is) but because of their beliefs and actions. I have voted Republican, Democrat and libertarian.
I vote for beliefs. I DO NOT vote by party affiliation, something I feel many make the mistake of doing.

The Latin phrase I think applies.

Things are well here. Been doing a lot of knife fighting training after school and it is fun. We use rubber knives covered in lipstick. The lipstick leaves marks when you score a cut.

Shut up Skunk. Yes, Marines train with baby powder and lipstick.

It is about 40 here at the moment, but it was 80 today, so it ain't freezing. Not sure it would be tolerable here in the summer.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/12/12 11:07 AM

I wasn't going to say a thing JJ. I think the lipstick on the edges is a GREAT training aid. Shows you can get cut and not even know about it until after it happens.

Do you guys concentrate on the regular grip or reverse grip, with the blade edge forward.

We use a standard grip the way the knives are designed to be used. There are some techniques we use reversed grips, but those are mostly when we are hiding the fact we have a knife.

Our morning runs are nicer due to the sunrises. I get lost in the vista and forget I am running.

Both grips have their advantages and disadvantages. I've never had any experience with knife fighting, but I would think it would be easy to over extend yourself in the conventional grip if you were doing an extended "Fencing" type attack, and that may just be a rookie mistake.

Sounds like they are concentrating on the right areas. The back of the knee and the back of the upper leg (thigh) are also good targets if you find yourself in position to attack those areas. Then of course that would also open up the kidneys to an attack.

When we see another person with a random nose bleed, we don't even bother being concerned anymore. It just inspires a "hey man, you got some blood coming out of your nose" comment. Anywhere else, I would be thinking, "dude, what's wrong?"

I picked this up before I left Salt Lake. It is a great lens, but not the best for low light since it is "slow," aperture is pretty small.

Olympus M.Zuiko 75-300mm f/4.8-6.7 ED Digital Zoom Lens

The crop factor is 2, so it is actually a 150-600mm.

I think Patty's is 1.6 so multiply the 250 by that it comes out to about a 400.

They just revamped the theater. It re-opened the week I got here. The seats are the best I have ever sat in in a theater and the projector is digital. Top of the line stuff now. The barracks, which a few of the students stationed here still stay in, have an indoor theeater as well as an outdoor theater. Yeah, it is nice. The outdoor theater hase stadium seating with a giant 40 foot digital LED screen. In the center of the seating there is a big BBQ pit area for cooking while watching football or whatever. That is where we watched the superbowl. The rooms in those barracks are really nice too. Like a hotel room.

Lowry Air Force Base
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lowry Air Force Base

Air Training Command Emblem.png
Part of Air Training Command (ATC)
Located in Aurora and Denver, Colorado
Built 4 Oct 1937
In use Activated 27 Dec 1937
Open 12 Dec 1938 - closed 30 Sep 1994,
Runway closed July 1966[1]

Lowry Air Force Base (1938–1994) is a former United States Air Force base located in the cities of Aurora and Denver, Colorado. Its primary mission throughout its existence was Air Force technical training and was heavily involved with the training of United States Army Air Forces bomber crews during World War II. It was also the home of the United States Air Force Academy from 1954 to 1958, until the Academy's permanent site in Colorado Springs was completed.


Lowry was permanently closed by actions of the 1991 Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC II) commission in 1994. The land is now being used for commercial and residential development, though many of the old military buildings are still in use.
[edit] Reuse

Lowry AFB's two massive hangars currently house the Wings Over the Rockies Air and Space Museum (Hangar 1 and 2, Building 401 and 402, respectively). Another hangar, formerly Building 1499, has been converted to the Big Bear Ice Rink. One of the former dormitories is currently owned and used by the Logan School for Creative Learning and was remodeled beginning 2004 and ending in late 2006. Also, some of the base housing is currently owned and used by Stanley British Primary School and other buildings are occupied by the Aurora Community College at Lowry.[5]

Other outbuildings and facilities have been demolished or are in the process of being demolished to make room for new development, while other buildings such as the former steam power plant and headquarters building are being renovated for new usage in the form of modern lofts and housing. Few abandoned, original buildings remain, although one dormitory facility and a former medical building on the east end of the base are owned by the state as part of the Higher Education and Technology campus and have not yet been renovated and are off-limits.[edit] Military presence

The last remaining military facility is the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) Finance Center. The last remaining Air Force facility, at Lowry, the Air Reserve Personnel Center,[6] moved to nearby Buckley Air Force Base in August 2011.[7]

I don't know about Adam JJ, but I would like to hear. And NO, I won't make any wise cracks, promise.

I just realized after rereading the slides I made for my presentation, they won't be clear to anyone other than a Marine since they assume you already know our legends.

No. The whole idea of why we are called devil dogs is false. The story is that the Germans called us Teufel Hunden, devil dogs, because we fought with such ferocity. But, we actually made that up.

5 liters divide into multiple containers. We carry that every time we go into the field whether it is training or combat. Desert warfare has changed things.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/12/12 01:50 PM

now, if I was to load up with all the water I have containers for it would be the High Sierra bladder = 70 oz.
1 two qt canteen = 64 oz.
2 one qt canteens = 64 oz.
198 oz.

or just over two and a half gallons.

OH I forgot my TWO 1 liter SS bottles! That would add another 64 ounces for around three gallons! BUT we're talking 24 pounds in just water alone! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Ok, make that 25.2 pounds!
Posted By: Anonymous

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/12/12 01:51 PM

That's 11 lbs of water. Add that to a full combat load... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> 180 5.56 rounds.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/12/12 01:52 PM

I agree with you on that, I was just adding up how much my containers would hold. I would use that bladder and I don't know if it would to the two 1 qt canteen route or the one 2 quart one.

Ok, Y'all use the 30 rounders.

Funny story about my 2 qt canteen. When I got sent to Florida after Hurricane Andrew I was there a couple weeks and someone stole my hat (ok,cover) and canteen. I was gripping about it and the 3 Star Army General in charge I knew from Pope/Bragg heard me. He said he has one in his Hummer that he would never use and had his aid get it for me. He was a pretty nice fella. I knew him from when he came to Pope to meet VIP's. I worked in Base operations so saw him quite a bit.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/12/12 02:03 PM

I was sort of leaning toward the 2 one quart route, that way if something happened to one of them I would still have another Plus the bladder.

Three mice are sitting around drinking and boasting about their strengths. The first mouse says "Mouse traps, Ha! I do pushups with the bar". The second mouse pulls a pill from his pocket, swallows it, and says with a grin "D-Con Rat Poison". The third mouse finishes his drink, slams his glass on the table and starts to leave. The first mouse says, "Where do you think you're going?”

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/14/12 01:00 PM

Hey Lazi.

T1Mo the forum there has really gone downhill over the past 3 months there. Its not nearly as informative as it used to be. I rarely hang out there anymore. To many bashers. The other parts of the site aren't bad for general info though.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/14/12 01:03 PM

i'm good... should be working but the ole creativity not quite getting it done.

I wish I had a set of scrapmuks like that. if I had 5 I would hand carve a voodoo knife holder just like that. by that's just a photoshopped avatar. maybe one day...

LOL!!! just wishful thinking...

was board one day and decided to hook up a old avatar I used to use with some Muks. never even considered that it might look sort of real. just a bit of photoshop voodoo. that's all the same Muk copy and pasted five times... but I do have the one!

Posted By: lazi

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/14/12 02:08 PM

was just scanning some of the older threads on this page and thinking how cool it would be for this to be a no-choil blade.

I already have a mple and while I put my muk an wiener through the paces I still haven't been willing to best up the mple. a choiless 311 would be an easy choice for heavy duty stuff.

yup the mudpuppy le. it will be interesting to see how it compares. I think mudders on that size blade in sr101 would be good for the kind of knuckle busting tinkering I have been doing lately. the belly looks right but I don't see using a choil on that size blade. rather have the cutting edge to work with.

Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/14/12 04:27 PM

I can hardly believe we've been up for a little over an hour already. Course we did go to bed about 1945 last night! We were wore out.

Back in October the Patriarch of our church died. Well yesterday we buried his wife at the age of 91. We started getting stuff ready and then started cooking for the funeral dinner Sunday after church and finally finished up the last dish Monday morning about 0800.

Had the funeral and then the dinner. We helped serve as we always do, and after cleaning up and relaxing a bit the son (only one they had) and his wife came back to the church. Well we all sat around for about 2 hours just talking and we finally got back home about 1530.

We messed around on the computers and talked on the phone to some of the other church folks and just was so stressed/tuckered out that we finally called it a VERY early day and went to bed.

They were special folks to us, their son Gary and I are not quite a full year apart in our age. We went to school together. When Patty and I started going to church over there they kind of adopted us I guess cause of our age compared to his plus we just got along really well. Their thing was going out to eat after church and taking various folks from the church with them. I think that I drove their car about as much as their son did after church. We didn't ALWAYS go with them, but probably at least 40 percent of the time. Plus they called us a lot to drive them to Doctors appointments and such.

Anyway, the sheriff has scheduled me for two weeks off (I loose it at the end of march if I don't take it). Anyway, I work my normal shift this week,get off Sunday morning and then don't come back until March 7th! God, I'll go crazy with that much time off.

He is the same Deputy that two winters ago slid his Taho into a tree on the ice, AFTER the sheriff told them to not go out unless they got a call. He just got bored at the office and decided to take a drive. He WAS off without pay for two days on that one. Oh he got two days off without pay for this time as well, but the sheriff decided I needed to take leave and he had this deputy that doesn't listen well.....

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/15/12 12:14 PM

Haha, it's elementary my dear Watson. Unless I made the last post on the Death chat, I make one there. I then go to the main index page. That gives me the total post count in the outdoors and field craft section. I then look at the post count in the Knives forum section. I type those up. I then look at the DC page count and put that down, then I add two more posts to the Knives Forum and TOTAL website post count (to include the post for the outdoors thread and the update post). That gives us the total post count for the site. So

outdoors thread = 24,000

Knives forum = 531,000

1 count for the Word
1 count for the update
TOTAL = 555,002.

Chapeish?

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/15/12 12:17 PM

A lot of times if you add the Outdoors and Knives forum together it doesn't equal the actual post count. Due to some posts being deleted and so forth. That's why I always make sure I make the last post before doing the updates so I will have the correct number according to the site server.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/15/12 01:19 PM

If I didn't have the 7 inch range so well covered I would be having me a 711. But I think I will just satisfy my craving with a 311 and wait for the 911 to come out.

Haven't heard the price on it yet, but short answer is no. I can't afford any of the Busse line, at least not right now.

Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/15/12 01:26 PM

I was gonna hold out for the 411, but then got to thinking it will probably be a 4.5 inch blade, just a tad longer than I really want. I have the S5 and Wardog (and Wardog HACK) so the 411 would be to close to them for me.
Now the 311 at 3.5 inches will be just the ticket I think. That Way I don't have to mess up my MUPPY, a special blade to me.

Yup. Even without having Randy around.

One possibility is that I wait for the 911 and hope that the 311 is still available.

I "need" cough cough a blade to keep in all my rigs. I really like my HRLM as an all around tough blade. The 4-11's look like just the ticket for a combo with the muk for Elk hunting and to keep on the bike. I will probably being doing more than a bit of camping while on the road and a decent blade makes life easier.

You know Timo, you MIGHT order a 311 and have Renee hold on to it until the 911 comes out and then ship them both to you at the same time.

The cordura sheath has an appealing price tag. I think if Her Highness says ok for keeping the knife until 911 is revealed I'm going to cheer up my fever confused mind and buy one of those baby tank knives.

Ugh, that RMDLE looks really nice. Matches the one I already have just without the coating. Too bad I think most people are feeling the economic crunch lately, myself included. So I'm holding out for a meaner street or scrapper 4 to come back into rotation, although I'm not familiar enough with the system, if there is some sort of schedule or what.
Posted By: lazi

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/16/12 07:16 AM

Welcome to the Yard Winter Wolf!

Afraid there is no regular release rotation and if there is a schedule only the Busses know about about. And I'm pretty sure it's a loose schedule. Pretty much how it works is that you get it when you see it. If it's in the store then great but chances of it ever being there again are (at leas have been) slim to none. There are other ways to find the blades you want but it requires a bit of diligence. You can check out the Busse exchange over at BladeForums and you may find what you are looking for. There is usually some mark up involved but every now and then you may score at or just below the store costs. Then there's the ganzas and shows... The Busse Kin companies round up anywhere from a few to a lot of various blades and sell them in either online events or they take them to various shows (like blade) and sell them there. You either have to be actively involved or find a proxy to score something from one of these types of events.

Stick around the Yard and you hopefully see an opertinitu at the knives you want. If not it's still pretty much the best knife forum you are going to find. The community here is really good and there lots of info about quite a few topics.

We must be having issues with the page flipping again. I used the 7-11 to process kindling and baton some wood. I was very pleased with the performance so far. It is going into the rotation for camp duty. It may knock the RMD off the pedestal.

When I go hammocking that is... Haven't tried it yet because of the snow. I think it's better to be learning in easier conditions - not in extreme weather. Other concern are the wolves. They say wolves don't attack people. But they have been circulating houses and eating dogs etc...
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/16/12 10:23 AM

I have been going lighter in gear. But I also want a 9-11 to see what it will do. I have some high expectations after the 7-11.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/16/12 10:25 AM

I haven't had trouble with wolves but they are pretty thin here. I don't trust them for a second though.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/16/12 10:27 AM

I try to keep the gear light also. I've been thinking about Kelly kettle or Bushcooker instead of Trangia. The Trangia is very good cooker but you'll have to carry fuel and it's quite big in size.

We're hopeful. She has seen an Allergist, Endocrinologist, Urologist, Gastroenterologist, Heart specialist, Chief of some sort of surgery at Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St. Louis (when this one doctor told us she had Pheochromocytoma)that are adrenal gland tumors that produce excess adrenaline. And now she is seeing a Nephrologist.

She HAS had blood clots go through her heart and lungs, TWICE that they have confirmed.

She has some medical problems.

Well SO FAR, when she has told them something is wrong, they HAVE found something. But they are working on about two or three things now and it is slow going. Oh and she had a kidney birth defect that we just found out about last year, and that of course, can cause problems as well.

I worry about her every day. She has a lot of bad days, and far to few good ones. Plus it's now only her physical health that is suffering, but her will. She is sick so much that she is gradually loosing her desire to do much, and I can understand that. That's one of the reasons I push her to go to Mingo, even on days when I don't think we will see all that much. Just to get her out of the house and doing something. She can't walk because of problems with her legs so there's not a great whole lot she can do.

I was going to order the 311, but we are looking at having to replace the waterpipes and hot water heater, so I am gonna hold off, at least for now. It's a REALLY good price, but 85 bucks is 85 bucks (cost plus shipping), and nothing ever seems to go the way it is supposed to for us.

I think the 311 is a REALLY nice blade though. Personally I think I like it better than the specs on the 411, at least for what I want.

Glad to hear but take it easy and don't push to hard. It will be 7 months this Tuesday since my hip surgery and it is still very difficult to do certain thing, I compare that to when I had the other hip done 1 year ago last week. I called the doctor and they want to see me Monday as opposed to March when I was scheduled and I'm praying they can find the cause <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/18/12 08:40 AM

The coach had put together the perfect team for the Detroit Lions. The only thing that was missing was a good quarterback. He had scouted all the colleges and the Canadian and European Leagues, but he couldn’t find a ringer who could ensure a Super Bowl win.

Then one night while watching CNN he saw a war-zone scene in Afghanistan. In one corner of the background, he spotted a young Afghan Muslim soldier with a truly incredible arm. He threw a hand-grenade straight into a 15th story window 100 yards away. KABOOM!

He threw another hand-grenade 75 yards away, right into a chimney. KA-BLOOEY!

Then he threw another at a passing car going 90 mph. BOOM! BULLS-EYE!

“I’ve got to get this guy!” the coach said to himself. “He has the perfect arm!”

So, he brings him to the States and teaches him the great game of football. And the Lions go on to win the Super Bowl.

The young Afghan is hailed as the great hero of football, and when the coach asks him what he wants, all the young man wants is to call his mother.

“Mom,” he says into the phone, “I just won the Super Bowl!”

“I don’t want to talk to you,” the old Muslim woman says. “You are not my son!”

“I don’t think you understand, Mother,” the young man pleads. “I’ve won one of the greatest sporting events in the world. I’m here among thousands of my adoring fans.”

“No! Let me tell you!” his mother retorts. “At this very moment, there are gunshots all around us. The neighborhood is a pile of rubble. Your two brothers were beaten within an inch of their lives last week, and I have to keep your sister in the house so she doesn’t get raped!”

The old lady pauses, and then tearfully says, “I will never forgive you for making us move to Detroit.”

Two moose hunters from Texas are flown into a remote lake in Alaska. They have a good hunt, and both manage to get a large moose. When the plane returns to pick them up, the pilot looks at the animals and says, "This little plane won't lift all of us, the equipment, and both of those animals - you'll have to leave one. We'd never make it over the trees on the take off."

"That's baloney", says one of the hunters. "Yeah," the other agrees, "you're just chicken: we came out here last year and got two moose and that pilot had some guts: He wasn't afraid to take off!" "Yeah", said the first hunter, "and his plane wasn't any bigger than yours!"

The pilot got angry, and said, "If he did it, then I can do it, I can fly as well as anybody!" They loaded up, taxied at full throttle, and the plane almost made it, but didn't have the lift to clear the trees at the end of the lake. It clipped the tops, then flipped, then broke up, scattering the baggage, animal carcasses, and passengers all through the brush.

Still alive, but hurt and dazed, the pilot sat up, shook his head to clear it, and said, "where are we?" One of the hunters rolled out from being thrown into a bush, looked around, and said "I'd say...About a hundred yards further than we made it last year..."

Massive amounts of vitamin C helps also. But this is an influenza caused by a H3N2 virus (or similar) and I couldn´t do anything that would´ve prvented it. I had medicine made for this virus so I´m feeling better now. Not well, but better. My highest body temperature (measured) was 39,5 C and like I said before even my bones hurt.

Nope, Missouri and North Carolina won't extradite either one of us. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

If we ever do meet it'll probably be like dividing by zero! End of the world or something like that!

If I remember right you´ve both said that you are not too talkative in person. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Which is very hard to believe... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I´d like to see you meet.

Believe it or not, I was pretty much a wall flower at parties. I'm not all that well at social gatherings until I warm up to you. I'm usually not that good at starting conversations.

Well I think that´s why I get along with you so well. You´d blend in here very well; nobody talks to anybody if they don´t know them and they don´t know them because they don´t talk to them, unless they are relatives, but you don´t want to talk to them either.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/18/12 02:11 PM

Once I warm up to topic of conversation I can get going, but I also am bad at saying stuff that does not apply to the topic being discussed, that doesn't make much sense. I many time say silly stuff just to get a grin and a giggle out of someone though.

Yeah, I got a high sierra 2 lit water bladder brand new for $25.00 PLUS at a different one I got a Maxped Fatboy that had never been used for $10.00! The Maxped is now my FAK bag that I am still adding things to. I have now added Burn cream and Ora-gel along with temp tooth filling. I am now going to get some 4x4 gauze pads since I have some extra room.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/19/12 03:13 PM

what a steal on the fatboy! my sitka was a well built bag but just not what I was looking for. that fatboy looks perfect for a fak. actually looks it could work for a variety of uses. good deal!

I think I finally found a back pack that will work for edc. I'm far from a prepper at this point but I'm wanting to start a couple kits I can toss in the bag one I get it. once i sort out the edc bag i think I will have a better idea of what I should expect from any other kits I may want. will be digging through all those threads for ideas for sure.

No, not really, we don't do interior restoration, more concrete work, mostly on pool decks, balconies or parking garages, sometimes over occupied space sometimes just over parking areas. The occasional roofing job as well, but not much

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/19/12 04:11 PM

Ooey Gooey Butter Cake

Cake
1 18 1/4-ounce package yellow cake mix
1 egg
8 tablespoons butter, melted

Preheat oven to 350-degrees. Combine the cake mix, egg, and butter and mix well with an electric mixer. Pat the mixture into the bottom of a lightly greased 13 by 9-inch baking pan.

Filling
1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
8 tablespoons butter, melted
1 16-ounce box powdered sugar

As it is cooking, every once in a while shake the tar out of it, so the center part will stay sort of soft/gooey/runny. When the surrounding edge and part way toward the center gets brown and the center has set up, BUT not firm, it's done. It is supposed to be sort of gooey/sticky in the middle section.

I get the sense that Andy Roy doesn't really like to convex 1/8" blades. Thinking of sending a Scandi over to Nate and have him convex it. I don't want an extreme convexed edge, but may want to convex the primary bevel for better working profile.

Do you mean a scandi grind, or his convex / scandi? I agree...ideally I would love to have a hiking buddy that's 1/8 with his convex / scandi grind. What a SLICER that little sucker would be!

4. I have a feeling the Terrasaur may be too big for me...but I love the black on black / orange stripe config so I snagged it. My goal is to just touch / feel the different knives. I had a bushcrafter, and it wasn't for me. Finally scored a Bushfinger yesterday!! Really excited to play with that.

I think ultimately...I want a matching set consisting of a shorter blade (Hiking Buddy?), a deep bushcrafter (Bushfinger), a shallow bushcrafter (Arete?), and a maybe a longer / slim blade (Recluse / Terrasaur?).

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/19/12 05:27 PM

Hey guys.

Saber grind, no? There's a beauty of a scandi HB on Lees. Ish...that's a sick group! The Bushfinger is a beast. A HB and trying a recluse would be nice.

Randy, finally got the marlin out yesturday. Stock sights are...weak...I'll say. But boy, has a nice trigger for a $200 gun! Was shooting with the neighbors who had a black powder pistol too, so we weren't doing any distance. Next time I'll go and set up the scope for 75 yards and see how it does from a rest.

I likee the 22 mag! Blew the snotz out of the back of the 2x6 we had the targets on.

I was on the fence about ordering one as the prototype was made. But when Dan brought it out with a smaller choil, it convinced me that I need one. I would have preferred the mudder handles, but I'll do just fine without them. This one has the potential to be my perfect EDC blade.

Now the 411, I can't speak to. I've pretty well got this size covered, and I'll only get one or the other, so I'm going with the 311 for now and the SYCO 411 when it comes out.

If I was going to get either, I'd go the swamp 411, that's just me, now, I'm going to be all over the Yard 411 ( hoping it looks like prototype)
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/20/12 05:08 AM

Personally, after living with the Muppy for a while, I don't need the 411. The 3.5 inch blade will do all I want a smaller knife to do without the added length, which could at times get in the way. Plus I just like the way the blade and handle come together to form a really nice blade.

Randy, I'm asking about the SY311 and the Swamp Rat 411.

Ok, then ONE is SYCKO and one is just a RAT!

I hate it when I do something stupid in front of witnesses!

the Ontario XM1 was a beast of a knife. what really gets to me is that I found them listed on eBay for $40! i got a plain and a camo before they ran out. I gave my dad the plain but later found he wasn't carring it because it was too big. I gave him my first blur and now the plain XM1 lives in his underwear drawer. Needles to say he can keep that one now!

If you want one, this is the time! I personally think they're too much like the SOD to buy another, but if you don't have a SOD I'd jump on it.

For sure thats a sound bet. If you don't like it you should be able to sell it on the other for for more than you bought it for with the price going up.

I'll get one someday, just got too much on my plate right now to spend a lot on a blade. I'll get the new ones out of the Yard that are sub-$100, but any more will have to wait til after Blade at least.

well inwas hoping for mudders but I'm thinking now Dan made the right choice on this one. that is if it is any bit smaller this way.

now the 411 is a different story... If those show up with anything but mudders you may never BSA the end of it from me.

not really... I'm thinking (hoping) the 411 is going to essentially be a CG version of the SS4.

no doubt in my mind the 411 is going to have mudders and be one of the most loved and respected blades to come from the BusseKin.

He's been going back and forth from home to the hospital and it is some long hours, so pray for both of them.

The General is in the Hospital. Gall bladder that got infected and got the pancreas. They've I THINK got all the infection under control and if they do He said her Gall Bladder comes out tomorrow. He's been going back and forth from home to the hospital and it is some long hours, so pray for both of them.

My prayers for both, that's one of my many surgeries, after 43 years I'm falling apart. I need to pm Tom with a couple tips for after the surgery.

Much better. Two joy sticks and the screen is has thebest colors and contrast I'v seen on any device. The graphics compete with any console out there.

I just may be checking one out soon then. Maybe some tax money might go for one.

I love my PSP, but I only play a few sports games on it. Golf, baseball, stuff like that.

I plan to use the Netflix app and when camping, it should be a worthy presleep excursion.

Thanks Randy, and you're absolutely right! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Her surgery is slated for 10 a.m. and I will be there a little earlier.

Not quite yet Todd.

Bld, I rounded my butt! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Seriously though, I did round off the pommel end of my War Dog. It is nicely rounded now and fits in the area at the base of my thumb quite nicely. Bit of advise though, IF you do it use a power sander and GO SLOWLY. Then you can smooth it out, get it REAL close to the factory finish with some sandpaper by hand. I'm well satisfied with the way mine turned out.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/23/12 02:52 AM

Well Marshall, he came by today while we were visiting the Granddaughter and put some of the pipes under the house. He is SUPPOSED to come back tomorrow morning and finish up, connecting all the pipes and running the shutoffs and hoses to the shower and sink, kitchen sink and the washing machine. THEN we got to get the hot water heater figured out. Patty is sort of scared of it being gas now, so we might wind up putting in an electric one, unless a friend of ours that works on them looks at and says it's ok. The microswitch keeps tripping and shuttng off the gas AND I think the thermocouple may let it heat up to much. HOPEFULLY that is all that is wrong with it and it won't but to expensive to fix. IF we wind up putting in an electric one, that means running another circuit from the Fuse box up the wall, through the attic, down the utility room wall and to an outlet. TO MUCH FOR ME!

Oh hey, I watched 2 episodes of "Preppers" last night. They COULD have presented them in a little better light (except for that Pandemic woman) but overall I guess it wasn't all THAT bad. And I DID like that Nat Geo Critiqued them and made recommendations.

Yuppers! That pandemic lady I think takes things to an extreme, with her cleaning. Making the kids use sanitizer wipes after coming in the house from outside? Prepping and Practicing is ok, but the cleaning extreme, I think was a bit extreme. I didn't care all that much for the Trucker bit, but I did like the one on the heavy guy building a faraday cage and the family in colorado. I also liked the one on the family that moved to Tennessee. And even though she didn't believe in defending herself the lady who did all the canning wasn't bad. Now the lady that did all the cooking, I liked that one as well.

Wait a minute, I think it was Cazio. Someone asked him about the Sig in his Avatar picture.

Anyway, first Sig I ever bought was a P225 single stack 9mm. They don't make them any more and I think it is Sig's loss. It only holds 8 rounds Plus one up the pipe, but it is a nice carry gun.

I had gear equipment and parts in half of it. A Jeep, kayaks and bikes in the other side.

I sold some larger parts and organized the half the motorcycle is in. The other side has 2 bicyles, 3 kayaks and a Jeep and an ice fishing hut.

With a table saw, shelves, air compressor, a generator, a fridge, a chest freezer and my rolling tool cabinet space is at a premium.

If I can get my wife to stop piling stuff in there I would be good to go.

I really need a shop. With all my automotive/motorcycle tools and equipment It would be nice to be able to have a bit more room.

BUT the Sheriff MIGHT have had ulterior motives. The Deputy that blew up the engine in the patrol car is working my shifts for me. Of course this is the same Deputy that last winter put his Tahoe into a tree on the ice AFTER the Sheriff told them to NOT be driving around unless they had to go on a call. The Deputy got bored at the office.....

He was just bored and heard there might be some dope in the car. Turns out there was a felony amount of Grass.

Oh and did I mention there was another Deputy about a mile away who drove up on them and did stop.

Not anything to really be proud of, but nonetheless...

ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Methamphetamine lab seizures rose nationally again in 2011, further evidence the powerfully addictive and dangerous drug is maintaining a tight grip on the nation's heartland, according to an Associated Press survey of the nation's top meth-producing states.

Missouri regained the top national spot for lab seizures in 2011 with 2,096, the AP confirmed through the survey that also found Tennessee was second with 1,687, followed by Indiana with 1,437, Kentucky with 1,188 and Oklahoma with 902.

Missouri had been the nation's No. 1 meth-producing state every year from 2003 until 2009 until falling behind Tennessee for one year. In 2011, a single Missouri county had more busts than Texas, Florida and California combined. Jefferson County, which is near St. Louis, tallied 253 seizures; the three other states had 219.

Got a call from my Dad last night, took Mom to the ER. Her blood pressure and pulse weren't up to speed. He said it was just for observation cause they changed up her meds.

Dad called this morning and said that they were going to operate and put in a pacemaker today sometime, and he would let us know what was going on. She's 80 and hasn't been in good health for the last couple years.

So I probably won't be on much today.

Y'all take care and Pray for my Mom and Dad (he's 83).

Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/23/12 08:03 PM

I have used glocks at work for the last 18 years. We have been issued the gen 4 glock 22's. I have not had a problem with mine but everytime I show up at the range they are changing out one part or another to fix problems they are having with a lot of the pistols.

I don't think thye are having problems with the 9mm or 45s but I don't keep up on that part of the industry.

A good gen 2 or an early Gen 3 and you should be good to go.

The new polymer Sigs I would stay away from. I have not heard good things especially with quality control.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/23/12 08:06 PM

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/23/12 08:19 PM

I have a couple XD's. I really like the full size 45. My wife really likes the 40 xd subcompact.

I like my glocks but my personal carry ones are all older and well proven to be reliable. My duty one is just fine. I am a range instructor for my agency so I get to see all the problems on the range. But when you field 500+ pistols you are bound to see some problems. The gen 4's just seem to have more than I have seen with the past models. Recoil springs and trigger connector bars being the latest 2 tweeks we have done.

If you can get your hands on a gen 4 and it feels like it has a decent trigger. Not the New York trigger, you should be fine. I just have a thing about any weapon that I field has to be 100% reliable with the ammo I use. I won't field one unless it has 500 problem free rounds.

Not to scare you way from glocks. I have had exactly one problem in all the years with any one I have carried and that has been through 10's of thousands of rounds fired. It was a bad magazine. They are a good pistol.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/23/12 08:26 PM

My family has had glocks for years but I want to make a good choice. my Mom also is looking for a 40s&w compact or subcompact so the XD might be a good option for her.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/23/12 08:29 PM

is it trigger pull or what?
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/23/12 08:36 PM

Yes. Its a 11 lbs trigger pull. Our standard is 5.5 lbs trigger pull. Some of the connectors that should have been 5.5lbs were closer to 9.5lbs.

Its an odd thing New York does and I have never seen a reasonable explaination other than insanity.

Got a call from my Dad last night, took Mom to the ER. Her blood pressure and pulse weren't up to speed. He said it was just for observation cause they changed up her meds.

Dad called this morning and said that they were going to operate and put in a pacemaker today sometime, and he would let us know what was going on. She's 80 and hasn't been in good health for the last couple years.

So I probably won't be on much today.

Y'all take care and Pray for my Mom and Dad (he's 83).

I've found a lot of Sportsters around for less than $4k, and many of them for less than $3k. Granted, they were 883's, but good for him. I've been looking for a cheaper bike for him, but it's hard to find anything decent without spending $3k or more.

I've done the CR123 battery route and just don't care for it. I do just fine on regular batteries. Right now all my flashlights use AA batteries and I am well pleased with them. I am looking at solar chargers the JJ and MB have, but don't know how much amperage I need to charge 2-8 batteries at a time. Actually probably only 2-4 batteries, BUT if I was to get some of the AA flashlights they take 8 aa batteries.

If you want to charge 8 batteries at a wack you will need a much larger charger. I am guessing it would take my large 20 watt solar panel a while to charge 8 at a time and I use that to charge deep cycle batteries.


I charge 2 AA at a time with my 6 watt panel.

Yeah you're right MB, I mixed your model up with a roll up model with 7 watts of power at 2 amps. Or maybe it was 12 watts at 2 amps. Well anyway, I'm confused. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

My mom is not bad with my dads older g23 and even smaller subcompact glock. But she is not sure a glock is what she wants. The glocks slide is heavy for her. She can work it but want to feel more confident in working it. She wants a 40 s&w to keep the family guns all using the same ammo and if possible the same mags

I'm a fan of FNH firearms... just saw where some places had the older FNP40's for $380. comes with 3 mags but ive seen mags for $10 at the same places. very nice feel to the FNP and has the changeable backstraps.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/25/12 06:43 AM

Skunk they make a higher wattage panel that folds up but ti will be roughly double the size for double the panels. STill a decent price. My 20 watt panel only ran me around 89 bucks with the charge controller. But its a healthy size panel. That one goes in the RV.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/25/12 06:46 AM

Skunk several of my guys use the 511 light for life and they like them so far. They have ran them for roughlly 2 years. No issues that I have heard of yet. But they have the charger in the car so its a quick re-up if there is an issue.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/25/12 06:47 AM

A 20 watter for less than $100.00! Is it a hard panel? I don't figure I'll get anything like that, nor do I really need it, just enjoy reading about it/speculating on what it might charge/power.
Posted By: Marshall

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/25/12 06:47 AM

Skunk it dose allright but with it only taking 90 sec. i don't worry a bout it to much but if you don't use it for a week or so just charge it to be sure. i have the larger one that they came out with first.

Wow. I was sort of wondering when I read they are 90 lumens for 90 minutes, then down to 25 lumens for 30 minutes and finally 15 lumens for 30 minutes. I still have a hard time equating lumens to candlepower.

Skunk the 20 watter is a hard panel with a metal frame. I am tempted to buy a second one without a controller for about 70 and trying to make a solar generator. I may get 2 more panels to try it. In theory I hook a 12 volt battery to an inverter and I should be able to run small houshold appliances from that. Why...............I don't know but it seems like a neat idea.

Ah the art of sharpening, feel and sound, feel and sound. You can feel the smoothness of the steel as it glides over the hone and the sound it makes is a silky never forgotten sound once you find it.

I first push the stone away from spine and the tip angling toward the handle. Once I raise a bur I switch to the other side and repeat. Then I pull toward the spine angling toward the tip only long enough to remove the bur and it's good to go. It is all free hand sharpened and will be a little convex. I first thought of it after seeing Veff serrations there are several way to do it and grit size makes a big difference but I discribe the basic way to do it since I was typing on a iPod

Try to make the very edge a little rough and the convex part smooth it will take some practice but it works well. It won't make the fancy push cuts in a sheet of paper but in real life work like cardboard rope wood and other stuff it shines. I was working with a guy doing straw and the bailer bound up he needed my knife to clear the tangle. He said it was the $$@&!&? Sharpest knife he had ever seen and used. And this guy carried a folding knife that used the interchangeable razor blade.

Sweet well so far the scariest knife I've ever seen is my M9 that was sharpened by Horn Dog. The first time I checked it on my arm hair it popped all of the hair off and later that day my arm started itching. When I started itching it, it got all splotchy. The knife was so sharp it shaved a layer of skin too.

The SAK is my first real SAK, so I wasn't sure what to expect. But it seems like a well built knife, I can open it one handed and the main blade locks, so it met all my criteria for a EDC folder. We'll see.

Gdog, get yourself a tapered diamond rod and practice. It's sorta like using a normal round rod but the taper to the rod allows you to sharpen different size serrations.

I had a Varago (is that right, Suzi v twin) for a while. I really liked it but it was only a 550. So I sold it to a friends dad and Patty had an uncle get killed on one and is afraid for me to ride. No big deal but I do miss riding.

Just sitting in the Garage right now. It snowed the day after I bought it and I am into my work week now. I probably won't go crazy changing much. I bought it from a friend and "helped" him set it up. I will probably make a few minor changes but nothing major.

He had bypass surgery 13 years ago. It finally gave out. They want to wait because the coughing from the pneumonia makes for a miserable recovery. Coughing with a split chest doesn't sound like fun.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/27/12 06:26 AM

I was looking through my knives the other day and found my old case Sod buster. That knife has been around for a while. I remember buying it at the old Western Auto store way back when I was still in grade school. I'm guessing I MIGHT have been in the 6th grade. I didn't have enough money to buy it, but the store owner held it for me and let me bring in part of my weekly allowance until I got it paid for. I think that was probable my first store bought knife (that I paid for all by myself). I guess I was either 11 or 12, so that means I have had it for 46 or 47 years! Many many years ago I "Modified" it by filing grooves in the black plastic handle so it wasn't so slick with "Stuff" on it.

Pop quiz, if you were going to be transported back through time into the middle ages, and you could only take what you had on you, what would you be taking. NO BOB/packs, just what is in your pockets and on your belt. We are of course talking survival type stuff here, unless there is something you REALLY can't live without. AND we are talking about perfect health, so no meds needed.

Oh and it's gotta be something you already have or have ordered.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/27/12 07:17 AM

1. Bulldog regulator
2. Wardog
3. Muppy (or the 311 once I get it, would have to see)
4. Ferro rods (Several, with strikers) and some tinder, probably PJCB (I'm lousy at making fires).
5. Diamond hones, probably a couple course and a fine one, or XC, C and F.
6. A wind up capacitor powered led flashlight
7. My Chris Reeve Umnumzaan and small Sebenza folders.
8. Bear Grylls parang machete

Kind of a weird list, and I am sure there are some things I am not thinking about but it was just a fleeting thought that flashed across my mind. I was thinking about movies and "Army of Darkness" came to mind.

He is a pretty interesting guy with an awesome job. He marked a couple of "unknown" sweet spots on my map incase I go back.

I really looked hard this weekend at the Walther pps 9mm, nice and flat and felt real comfortable.

I am seriously thinking about a Henry Arms AR 7 (I think I got the name right). Would be a nice gun to slap my silencer on.

Back in the late 70's I had an original AR7 Explorer made by Charter arms and I really liked it. Since then they have upgraded it a lot supposedly. I thought it was a good little rifle.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/28/12 07:16 AM

Only Walthers I have shot are the PPK and PP I used to have (I still have the .380ppk and a .32acp pp. At one time I had the PP and PPK .380. Both .380's have bitten my fat chubby hands.

It's now legal to commercially buy more than one gun a month in Virginia.

Gov. Bob McDonnell signed legislation this afternoon that overturned a restriction on commercial sales enacted in 1993, when the state was "a haven for gun runners," the Associated Press writes. Private sales were already exempt.

The neighbors have moved out while I was away. A little old lady came and introduced herself to me yesterday. She was very pleasant and obviously from an era that actaully introduces themselves to new neighbors. She is a widow of a Army man. She grinned when I told her I am a jarhead.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 02/29/12 07:50 AM

Preamble; I am noit looking for sympathy and have no faith, I just think this is a cool story about how my family took care of things.

today, they buried my 92 year old grandfather. He énlisted the Army Air Corps and was still in when it became the Air Force. He manned the ball gun in B17s during WWII. He even wore a jacket that said "first to bomb Berlin" I brought him to Berlin a year ago during his first time to set foot there. He moved up the ranks from E1 to E6 then from O1 to O6 fullbird colonel.


The honor guard from the Air Force paid full military honors at his funeral today. Being the only Peace (his last name) in the active duty status, they sent his folded flag (gov issue) with the brass from the rifle salute folded inside, his distinguished flying cross (I think I got that right) his officer sword and the rest of his medals to me.

They will all be proudly displayed in my office as soon as I get them .

We DID have a Hellatious storm move through at around 70 or so miles per hour! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> Fortunately, no damage to our house, and we only lost power for a few hours. We have a couple of BayGen crank-type radios, and the warnings were going off like crazy.

Playing with my favorite pair of camp blades. DF and WD. Got them both as sharp as they can be and know fiddling with straping the sheaths together and where to strap 'em to the pack. Beer 'n' blades. It really is the simple things in life when snowed in.

I'm not getting hosed. I don't mind covering for my fellow Sgt's. They would do the same for me. I had to arrange for child care but family never seems to mind. I had today to relax and put some miles on the bike. I will get some comp time in tomorrow and then I get my other regular day off. Then My partner will take Friday for the other two. Hopefully the one will be healed up enough to come back to work by then.

We tend to promote the best candidates. I'm not just saying that because I am one of them. They try to put the newer guys with the more senior Sgts to mentor. They turn out some excellent Sgt's. In fact they won't promote you to the next position if they don't think you can fill the position above that.

I hear ya JJ! When I was in Japan, one year I had to work a week while I was on Leave! That was the only way I could get leave that time cause I was the only one that knew how to do a certain thing. It's kinda the pits to be on leave in Hawaii for a month and have to work a week (well actually 3 1/2 days and I was done). BUT the Col I worked for only charged me for 3 weeks leave time not the full 4 weeks.

Grandpa loved the letters. For a while I was just calling him every week or so, but he would ask why I haven't written. So, I stopped calling to tell him things and just wrote instead. He was happier with that. I guess it's a generational thing, and I am glad my neice ambravces it.

Well, not to feel happy about my pawpaw's death, but I have another house now. It is the only land, a little shy of 20 acres, on a lake in TX. The reast of the shore falls in a national forest and can never be developed. No neighbors. Ever!

Me and grandpa are the two in the family that joined as patriots. That may sound self-embelishing, but we held the same ideals.dad loves the USA as do the rest of the family and all then men served, but me and Pawpaw, always stood on the same side of the table when it came to arguements about how the country should be run. And, are validating points were always backed up by "what does the constitution say about it?"

No Jamie Lee, wrong movie.

It is a 1600 feet house and is an actual log cabin with its own well and partially powered by solar. Me and pawpaw were halfway through with adding in deep cycle marine batteries into the solar unit. Another 10K and about 40 houra work and it can be completely off the grid.

Obama also supported the repeal of don't ask don't tell. Another pro constitution move on his part.

DADT was a policy that meant if youy are gay and you were open about it intintionally or accidentally you could be discharged without compensation and lose all benefits for serving.

As for constitutional raghards, I guess it is more related to the original document written by our forefathers.

"we hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable 3ights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness..."

Verbage and ungramatical capatilization in that quote are exact tot the Declararion of Independance.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 03/02/12 09:35 AM

The writers of the Declaration actually had grievances about the verbiage since I in essence made slavery illegal. But, that thought was obviously swept under the xarpet until 1865.

It's a little pricy maybe, but then again if the quality is there, it ain't bad. Plus by being able to snap on a 9V it isn't gonna be all that large and the run time doesn't seem really all that bad, specially on the low setting.
Posted By: Marshall

Re: Newest Death Chat *DELETED* - 03/03/12 05:32 AM

Most of my lights tend to run on the tactical side of things so i do need to pick up one that has a lot of run time with maybe enough light to light a room or tent or camp kitchen.

I have a small LED latern that I picked up at wallyworld for 5 or 6 bucks. it has a decent run time on a few AA batteries. I use it to read at night when I camp. Its pretty good for a cheap light. A set of batteries usually last the whole season or more.

They're nothing fancy, but just having all three seems special to me. Oh and they are nice, the large folder is a BEAR! The small is actually very pleasurable to carry and the fixed is "Just right"!

When i went on duty i had a boot knife in the right boot and a small 22 or 32 in the left boot .

Re: Newest Death Chat - 03/04/12 11:43 PM

Oh and I also have the Crawford designed CRKT made Falcon folders, the large and small one. I like those two as well. I also have several Benchmades including 5 Balisongs (one is an original Pacific Cutlery utility model with all the pins just peened over and sticking out from the handles.)

Re: Newest Death Chat - 03/04/12 11:56 PM

Haha, seems to ALWAYS work that way. I know a knife I got rid of a few weeks ago I really didn't want to get rid of, but It was VERY seldom used and another Dog really wanted one and wasn't having any luck so we worked out a deal. I'm glad we did cause he really likes and and above all WILL use it.

Yeah, we usually only have two, MAYBE three officers on at a time and backup can be quite some time off. IF it's a SHTF problem, I will call ANYONE, city or an off duty deputy. Heck, I've even called the Sheriff out because he was the closest one to act as backup, EVEN after getting him out of bed at 0300!

Mom is doing a LOT better. Patty not so much today. We left yesterday afternoon at 2pm, went flea marketing without neighbor and had supper then went to a "little theater" production of Lil Abner. Wasn't bad for a bunch of volunteers.

Anyway, this morning she woke up with her throat swelling again. She popped a couple benedryl and is doing better now, she's sleeping.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 03/05/12 12:13 AM

No, we had planned to but with her throat we were afraid to. SOMETIMES the benedryl doesn't work and it's off to the ER.

But we DO miss church. I just wish we had a better "Leader". BUT he has told a few folks around town he is looking for someplace else. It's a shame too, because a couple years ago he was really doing a good job. But I think he was just covering up for how he really is until he felt "Secure" and didn't think us country Red Necks (he had been in the St. Louis area for over 20 years) would do anything when/if we got fed up or WOKE UP. Thank you for asking Bill.

8oz of Shredded Cheddar cheese

And don't worry, it is supposed to be moist when it is done. And MAN is it good!

Preparation:

Combine all ingredients and pour into greased 9- X 13-inch baking dish. Bake at 375° for 35 to 40 minutes, or until lightly browned.


Oh and I need to say, we DO NOT thaw the Broccoli and we DO chop it up in a food processor.

You can't go wrong with either of them but i am still not to sure about the sig 250, the 229 is hard to beat in any caliber and the 220 is a fine weapon. the glocks are well built as well but some may fit you better than others and the price for most glocks are around 500 or so.

I like the light or laser for home Defence

Have a friend shine a 100+ lumen strobe weapon light at you at night and try to aim at you friend (with your finger NOT an actual weapon). Then tell me it doesn't give the person with the light a blinding advantage.

Never use a weapon light in the on setting or you will be a target. Either strobe it or just pop it on and off quickly as you scan the room lighting up corners or places too dark to see even with adjusted eyes (natural night vision).

Another technique for weapons lights is to hold the hand gun out to your side. You can a laser with this technique or just learn where the shot strikes within the light's pattern. Practice low light engagements and give this a try. Your assailant will only be able to see the light and fire in that direction which is a few feet to your side.

I have used both techniques with SIM rounds and they work even against people who know the techniques too.

They guys at the gun dealer/range showed me a video of a new Sig they ordered 200 of during Shot Show. It is supposed to be released in a month or so. I forget the name of it, but it was a 9mm. They seemed pretty stoked about it, but that could be because they plan to sell it for about $750. They brought it up since I was looking at smaller summer carries like the Glock 36.

I need to do some research to see if Glock will release a Gen 4 G36 anytime soon. That will be my next purchase.

Been drooling over the Silencerco Osprey too. I fired it on a G21 today and it made the handgun a tad heavy, but I got a little used to the added weight after 50 or so shots. My groups weren't as tight as without it, but they were getting better.

I have put thousands of rounds through my G21 Gen 4 with zero issues even with the cheapest rounds I could find. I even put first the 1000 rounds through without a cleaning just to see what happens. It fired perfectly no matter what kind of junk I fed it.

I thought that if the military doesn't work out that a writing reviews on gun knives and outdoor gear would be great since I live to research

The military is what got me a foot into the door in the review biz. I sold myself as a service member with weapons and tactics knowledge stacked on top of decades of playing games and with gadgets.

Plus, the Corps sent me to the best journalism school there is, which I turned into a dehree in public communications. The Corps will get theirs, got to make sure I get mine.

Haha. The term they used was "ships on a chip." without getting too technical, the ships are printed on silicon squares about a centimeter on the sides and a few milimeters deep. They are sent into orbit on regular rockets. They use solar sailing to increase speed. That is, they have a reflective side and an absorbing side, so they get pushed by light abd solar winds. They are electrically magnetized powered by tiny photovoltaic cells printed on the absorbing side. The magnetization keeps them from flinging out of orbit as the increase speed by "hanging" onto the earth's magnetic field. Once sufficient speed to make their journey is reached, the demagnitize and fly out of the orbit. They plan to send them to planets in other solar systems in swarms in a long stream of tens of thousands. Once the first ones get to the planet, they will use an onboard sensor that detects life susporting elements like O2 or water and send a single beep from a transmitter. They will actually fry their circuits be doing so. The next ship in line will relay the beep back and so on. If the beeps make it back, the planet has water. These ships are expected to move faster than anything man has ever created using nothing but solar sailing.

It's still has a new read to it even though it was written in 1959!

It was a little below freezing last night but it should get up to 60 ish today. It could go either way. I really need to do a serious maintenace on it anyway.

Oh man, there are thousands that stop by here both North and Southbound. We are located about 25 miles West of the Mississippi river. I have NEVER hunted waterfowl in my life. Just land birds, quail, dove, pheasant.

I also just love almost anything with a recurve blade. didnt know how i would feel about the serrations but they seem nicely done. don't seem they would interfere with any of the cutting tasks I encounter and might actually come in handy more than i was thinking. at minimum this blade is going in whatever edc pack I setup.

looks like the dog I picked it up from got the other two. offered one to me for a fair price. the last ones I saw went for more a more and I was wishing I had picked one of those up. they used to show up for sale and then they just dried up.

When I left at 3 they had 2 stages setup and we were measuring the distance from the center of the gym to the parking lot(200') for the satellite truck, the secret service was checking around and a locker room I was talking to my boss about needed to be emptied for Santorum and his wife tomorrow.

Earlier I was ranting and raving about the SS wanting the fire alarm at Cazio's school disabled so it could not be used to interrupt Santorums speach. I can understand the desire for everything to go well, BUT they need to balance ONE PERSONS impact against the safety of many, especially our youth.

The seemingly Overpowering desire to POSSIBLY put the lives of hundreds, prehaps even thousands is what I don't think is correct.

The stay in the mountains was nice. I made a special one night friend.

Day off was nice too. I got into the office this morning and my CO asked "I heard a rumor it is your birthday, Sgt. Peace." I told him it is true. He told me, "Get the F&%$ out of my sight then, Marine!" I did.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 03/07/12 11:30 AM

To me what is important about it is that people care enough about you to take the time and effort, to REMEMBER you, not the day itself. (Does that make sense)?
Posted By: Anonymous

Re: Newest Death Chat - 03/07/12 11:35 AM

The Gregorian calendar, the one we use now, is pretty accurate. But, before it's existence, people celebrated birthdays at the wrong time. The earth was not in the same place it was when they were born. But now, with our fairly accurate calendar, it is pretty close to the same place as when they were born on their birthday. Or is it?

No. it is not. The entire solar system is moving. The entire galaxy is moving at astronomical speeds as is the entire cosmos. We will never be in the same place. Ever.

A true birthday would require me to return to the same place I was born.

I keep moving forward.

It makes a lot of sense to me. That is why I keep in touch with the people I care about regularly.

When I used to let people know when my birthday was, i would get an isolated call every March from a person wishing me happy day even though I haven"t heard from them in a year.

Food for thought.

The Gregorian calendar was created after the Mayan calendar. There have been 514 leap years since the creation of leap years. That means if the Mayans were right about the end of the earth it would have happened 7 months ago.

The best gifts are the ones that come from the heart and take effort not money.

A very close fiend of mine saw my Dr. Seuss book collection once. She mentioned how jealous she was. They don't sell entire Seuss collection, about 70 books. Mine was from childhood and all my looking around.

So, I hunted Ebay, used book stores and the like. I got them all, originals, and it cost me about $100 total. She mentions it everytime we talk. She was extrememely happy when she received it, and to this day has no idea how I got it.

Marty, if you look at the state of Missouri, the lower right corner (Southeast) is shaped like a cowboy boot heel, hence the name "The Missouri bootheel". If you draw a line straight east to west across the top part of the bootheel, where I live is in that general area about 25-30 miles west of the Mississippi river.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 03/08/12 12:49 PM

Oh sorry, I forgot to say he DID have a gun and fired off ONE shot just after the deputy got there. The Deputy then held held him at gunpoint but the dude fled into a house, then back outside, then inside and finally came back out and I guess once he saw 4 cops there he just dropped the gun and gave up.

Or it could be religious. IF they believe that suicide is a sin, then being killed by someone else, even though they instigated it, isn't a sin (they think) because they did not die PHYSICALLY by their own hand.

The Kid has gone to colors - 03/09/12 09:45 AM

The kid has gone to the Colors
And we don't know what to say;
The kid we have loved and cuddled
Stepped out for the flag to-day.
We thought him a child, a baby
With never a care at all,
But his country called him man-size
And the kid heard the call.

He paused to watch the recruiting,
Where, fired by fife and drum,
He bowed his head to Old Glory
And thought that it whispered:"Come!"
The kid, not being a slacker,
Stood forth with patriot-joy
To add his name to the roster,
And God, we're proud of the boy!

The kid has gone to the Colors
It seems but a little while
Since he drilled a school-boy army
In a truly martial style.
But now he's a man, a Sailor,
And we lend him a listening ear,
For his heart is a heart all loyal,
Unscourged by the curse of fear.

His dad, when he told him, shuddered,
His mother-God bless her!-cried;
Yet, blest with a mother-nature,
She wept with a mother-pride.
But he whose old shoulders straightened
Was Grandad-for memory ran
To years when he, too, a youngster,
Was changed by the Flag to a man!

If you have Netflix, watch the movie "Chosin" now. Great documentary.

If you don't have Netflix, get your butt to the rental spot.

Money has just got so tight that we're cutting back everywhere we can. I dropped my gym membership, we're getting a less expensive vehicle that gets better mileage, and then we're signing over the vehicle my daughter drives to her so we can quit paying the insurance on it and let her take it over.

Re: The Kid has gone to colors - 03/09/12 12:56 PM

just dropping in... staring at a can of tool dip and thinking about dipping my junglevore into it... I think the plan for me is to dip it in up to the lanyard hole and then let that dry. I'm thinking I can come back and dip it in up to the first grind afterwards. maybe that with give ke a bit of a knob on the end. but I tend to over think this kinda stuff...

may dip a few cables a rigged up a while back.

did you ever get you solar rig worked up mb?
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: The Kid has gone to colors - 03/10/12 09:10 AM

Yep. The small folding panel is great. It have a nice little setup going with the panel a few cables and a USB charger for AA and AAA batteries. That thing rocks.

I have been putting my 20 watt panel to good use lately as well.


I need to pick up some tool dip. My can is done. Its way too old.
Posted By: lazi

Re: The Kid has gone to colors - 03/10/12 09:19 AM

hoping I can get a couple panels by this summer. solar rechargeable battery rig would be pretty nice to have. something for my phones and one I could leave in the car. but right now I'm just glad to be using rechargable batteries again...
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: The Kid has gone to colors - 03/10/12 09:25 AM

The price of panels has dropped. I wouldn't mind picking up a second 20 watt. I think I can get the same one I have for 69 or 79 bucks. I don't "need" it. But I would like to experiment this summer with making a solar generator. I am not sure if I want to spend the cash to experiment though.
Posted By: lazi

Re: The Kid has gone to colors - 03/10/12 09:25 AM

decided to try the spray and the dip... glad I tested the spray out. figured it was going to be drippy but didnt know just how drippy. way too drippy for most my tasks. I guess it's fine if you want to coat something with plastic like you would normally do with spray paint.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: The Kid has gone to colors - 03/10/12 09:29 AM

I have never seen a plasti-spray. Just the dip. I might have a use for plasti-spray. Where did you find it?
Posted By: lazi

Re: The Kid has gone to colors - 03/10/12 09:36 AM

got it from home depot... over with the spray paints and less than I was seeing it online.

see some guys painting bumpers and wheels with it. im thing about taking my bumper cover off and seeing painting all black now. got a bad paint job after somebody backed into me. chipping and looks pretty bad so the plasti dip thing might make for a easy cheap fix. and maybe won't look bad. definitely won't look as bad...
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: The Kid has gone to colors - 03/10/12 09:43 AM

Thanks, I may have to pick some up. There have been several times I wanted to plasti-dip something and couldn't because it was too big. That might come in handy.
Posted By: lazi

Re: The Kid has gone to colors - 03/10/12 09:44 AM

I think the solar panel is a good investment and with the lower prices it just makes sense to put them in use.

i got a 27" iMac a few years back and this sucker can heat up a room all by itself. in the summer I know its like having a heater on while having the ac going at the same time. I wouldn't mind just having a panel with a fan on it just running behind my computer. since my ac runs all day pretty much 9 months out of the year I'm better that would've saved me some money by now. and I'm sure there's a million other little things a solar panel is more efficient at. just have to make the initial investment and have the ideas.

also a good investment in educating yourself. power goes out and you know you can rig up a way to keep a few electronics going without burning up other resources.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: The Kid has gone to colors - 03/10/12 09:49 AM

I have a 300 watt inverter, a couple of deep cycle batteries. I am curious how many watts of solar power it would take to run some small appliances.
Posted By: lazi

Re: The Kid has gone to colors - 03/10/12 09:56 AM

I would think most appliances don't require as much power as we think. been a while since I tinkered with anything but in most cases if you open stuff up and bypass the cheap power supply crap they stick in there you can give it just enough juice to get it going.

but yuh, I have been wondering just how much you can milk from inexpensive solar rig. just no enough expendable cash to cover a new habit.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: The Kid has gone to colors - 03/10/12 10:04 AM

If i could save some cash using a solar setup I would do it in a heartbeat. I'm just not sure I can, even with already having the other components.

Re: The Kid has gone to colors - 03/10/12 10:06 AM

I put the original turn signals back on the bike and the original winshield. They I took it out for a shakedown run in the cool weather. I like the orange turn signals/running lamps in the front. I like to bee seen. I hate the way the stock windshield looks but on a long trip that thing will rock. It really blocks the wind enough to keep fatigue down.

I still have some Sanyo and some Kodak batts I use in my mouse and keyboard. really surprised how long the Sanyo batteries have lasted. bought a whole set from aaa to d and have only ever used the four aa and c's. would love to hack the wall wart off and stick a solar panel on there. that would give a whole range of batteries if the lights go out.

It was. I t was a gift from a buddy in SOF.

I replaced it with my first Regulator. I only have one, the bayonet. After the Green Beret snapped, I did some internet research to find a knife I could pry a vault open with. Me and my buddy both got a regulator.

The trigger doesn't make any difference to the pull weight I don't think. It does have adjustment screws to take the pretravel and overtravel out.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/11/12 12:28 PM

Depending upon how it connects, it could, mainly due (possibly) to roughness of the part.
Posted By: Anonymous

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/11/12 12:31 PM

The trigger connects to the hammer by a flat bar. I guess some friction could have been removed from the trigger pin hole being smoother, but I doubt it. I think the new sear and polishing did the majority of the reduction in pull.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/11/12 12:34 PM

I agree about the polishing. That is what I was talking about when I said depending upon how the trigger is connected. I know on a 45 I had once, the trigger loop (stirrup?) was really rough and I polished that up along with the grooves it rode in. It moved a lot smoother after I was finished. Of course I also polished up the sear as well.

I don't know much about leather work, but I have "Modified" a few holsters that were meant for a different gun. I just soaked the holster in rubbing alcohol and kept messing with it until I got a fit. THEN later on I used mink oil because I THINK the alcohol dries out the leather.

I've been unable to log on at home two out of the last three days for some reason. I don't know why. HOPEFULLY that will not be a problem as my two day break begins today.

In case I can't sign on from home in the next two days you'll now know why. boy I hope I CAN log on, withdrawals and all ya know.

Oh well If I can't sign on, I'm reading a rather lengthy book, "Lucifer's Hammer" that I read probably 40 years ago or more that maybe will tide me over.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/11/12 08:05 PM

had seen what I thought was hawk flying around for almost a year now. mostly jus saw huge soaring shadows cast from over head and then it would disappear. I also recently noticed some huge ravens started showing up over the last 6 months or so. never really seen either all that much at less i maybe saw a raven from a distance and figured it for a abnormally large crow.

well I just looked out my window and noticed more ravens than i normally have been seeing. these are some huge black birds. they were all swarming around a tree across from my window. they seemed to be very concerned with a particular mass in the tree. I noticed the raven swooping down towards the mass and that the mass would flutter. grabbed a up a scope to take a better look. all I can say is awesome! there was the hawk with a squirrel pinned to a limb and he was turning that sucker it into breakfast. this bird was huge and literally had the squirrels neck and the whole limb wrapped in it's claws while hanging almost upside down. everytime the hawk tightened up it's grip and shifted the ravens just went nuts! the hawk looked up after 3-4 minutes like screw this and proceeded to peck the squirrel in the head a couple hard times then scooped up his breakfast and headed out. but the ravens had other plans and a coulle of the jumped roght on his back sending him down to some lower bushes. they ended up behind a tree where I couldn't see them but after a couple minutes I see this massive swarm of features swooping up towards the sky. too much going on to tell if the hawk still had the squirrel in hi s grips but there is no way that squirrel made it out alive or at least without some serious injuries. i suspect that between being choked out for 4-5 minites and getting pecked in the dome a few times it was expired. and the hawk vs the ravens scene was just incredible!


good morning!

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/11/12 08:19 PM

thought I didn't get a very good clip with my phone but it was better than I thought. looks like the hawk ha to take off and abandoned his breakfast with what looks like 4 ravens hot on the trail and gaining.


just looked out the window again and see what looks like the hawk circling over an undeveloped plot of land in the distance. looks like somebody is hungry...

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/13/12 04:27 AM

Okay, so you’ve been invited to a swanky dinner party, and you really don’t want to go. Instead of dreading the hours spent in mindless chatter with all the society snobs talking endlessly about absolute drivel, think of the fun you could have at the event.

With the utilization of potted meat, you could turn an otherwise mindlessly boring night into a load of laughs. For you, that is.

Take a can of this:

[Linked Image from farm8.staticflickr.com]

Finely chop some onion and garlic and jalapenos, add it to the potted meat food product, mix thoroughly, then put it in a serving bowl and call it bean dip. When nobody’s watching, nonchalantly place it on the table where all the other dishes are, then stand back and watch the expressions of the people as they sample the dip. At a formal shindig, chances are most people won’t dare to criticize the food. Even better, they’ll feel obligated to have more than one bite so as not to potentially offend the host.

If bean dip’s not your thing, put the meat in a bowl, and then taking a tablespoon full at a time, shape the substance so that it resembles a slice of paté. Just as with the last suggestion, sneak it into the food serving area. Make a point of telling two or three people that the paté is simply wonderful and they must go try it. Then watch their faces as they struggle to maintain their composure so as not to embarrass themselves. If your victim is a true upper-class twit, he’ll take pains to praise the paté himself, as he will assume that if he doesn’t like it, then something must be wrong with him.

Nothing is more important to a true blue-blood than maintaining composure and avoiding acting inappropriately in any way. Thus, when he goes to take his seat and you manage to drop a spoonful of potted meat product on the seat right before his derriere hits it, chances are good that his facial expression won’t betray the fact he’s just sat in the mess. No, he’ll manage to keep proper decorum. But you’ll know the truth.

Take some potted meat, shape it into a ball, and then when no one’s watching, send it rolling off through the room. Sooner or later, someone will step in it and the fun will begin. The need to act appropriately at all times will instantly clash with the desire not to track whatever the heck he just stepped in around the persian rug where he’s standing. He must either then remain where he’s standing for the rest of the night, or try to discreetly inform the host that he just stepped in something. Then you can enjoy watching the host try to explain away the situation.

So, don’t despair. Next time you have to endure some long awful pretentious dinner affair, with a can or two of potted meat and a little imagination, you can change the party from hell into a barrel of fun.

Okay, so you’ve been invited to a swanky dinner party, and you really don’t want to go. Instead of dreading the hours spent in mindless chatter with all the society snobs talking endlessly about absolute drivel, think of the fun you could have at the event.

With the utilization of potted meat, you could turn an otherwise mindlessly boring night into a load of laughs. For you, that is.

Take a can of this:

Back in my wilder days, OK so we're only talking 16 years ago, he was having a party at his farm. Had a little cabin there at a pond. I won't say I was intoxicated, but I DID fall off the porch, TWICE! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

He wanted to ride my Virago around the farm but I wouldn't let him, didn't want him to get hurt. He was drunk. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" />

it keeps the deer above freezing but cold enough...to where its like you are "ageing your meat"

say if you shoot a deer & are like..."omg wth wuddaamigunnado?"....you load the deer into your truck...back up to said deer cooler

a huge bear of a man named joey grabs your 110lb doe ouuta the bed of truck w/ one hand....hangs in on the gambrel guts & skins it in about 3mins....slides it down the track into the cooler & it hangs there untill the butcher comes in on wednesday

OK, same concept here. AFTER they process the deer it's packaged and frozen there and you come get it when they call you. They usually let it hang at least a couple days.

No. It was $2 for 50 rounds. I didn't expect much. I just got them while blind firing down range to test the trigger adjustments.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/14/12 05:16 AM

Traditional Chinese zombies are called "jiang shi". Their means of locomotion involves hopping around with their arms extended like giant decomposing bunnies. Because they can only hop, they are unable enter a room if the threshold is raised. If you visit China, you will notice all doors have a raised threshold for this purpose. I thought the person telling me that was full of BS till I saw a Taiwanese zombie movie and the kids that were being chased were saved by running into an outdoor pavilion that had a raised threshold all around its perimeter. All the zombies sat around the pavilion hopping about but unable to enter and feast on their young nubile brains.

On a similar note; I saw my normally laid back sergeant major turn into a demon today. There was a vein the size of a water hose pulsing in his neck and a similar one on his forehead as he destroyed the eardrums of everyone in the office building. Apparently a recruiter is behind on mission (think quota) and lied on some forms to get a kid into the Marines.

Oh and since I missed all the fun, I found this, just for old times sake.

A jiang shi, also spelled jiangshi or chiang-shih (in Wade-Giles), and also known as a Chinese "hopping" vampire or zombie, is a type of reanimated corpses in Chinese legends and folklore. "Jiangshi" is read as Gangshi in Korean and Kyonsh in Japanese. According to legend, in the day, the jiangshi rests in a coffin or hides in dark places such as caves. At night, it moves around by hopping, with its arms outstretched. It kills living creatures to absorb their qi (life essence).

I believe the issues are exaggerated and mostly just with the 9mm. When you sell as many guns as Glock, even if just one in 1000 have an issue, there are still many people reporting the issues since so many were sold. Don't buy into the hype.

Glock would love you to believe its hype but its a fact. I have the personal experience to prove it with the gen 3 and gen 4 G-22's. We wouldn't be replacing coil springs and connectors on 500 new pistols if it wasn't a well documented issue.

With that said the majority work fine. But there are and have been enough problems documented that Glock has produced parts to fix the mistakes.

Well, if you have first hand experience I guess there were issues with the 9mm and the 40. It is good to see them finally owning up to it and fixing it.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/15/12 05:13 AM

I based my comment not on what Glock told me, as I have read nothing from them. I based it on all the local Marines and guys I talk to at the range, but now that I think of it, only a few use 40s. It is either 9mm or 45 around here.

I assume since the spring recall Glock issued, they are putting the new springs in the new guns. I guess you are safe unless that gun has been sitting on the shelf for a long time.

Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/15/12 05:20 AM

I don't know about the issues with 9mm in the Gen 4's. It would make sense that they would if they changed the design to accomodate the 40. The Gen 3 9mm ran like a sewing machine. The 40's were the ones with the issues. And then it was only with a flashlight because the frame was flexing enough to cause a stoppage when a light was mounted. Using a less hot round helped.

The Gen 4's we got had bad trigger connectors. The recoil springs were bad and there was a third issue with a part but I don't recall what was replaced during that one because I was out for surgery when evereything was switched out.

We had the later Gen 3's and they were enough to have us switch to the M&P until Glock sweet talked us into using the Gen 4's. Time will tell if the repairs on the gen 4's will make it an acceptable fighting pistol.

My early Gen 3 is great. But I don't use a pistol mounted light.

Don't get me wrong I have been a fan of glock for a while. They just need to get back to what made them great.

I wouldn't hesitate a second on a Gen three 9mm or 45. Just on the 40. I would reasearch a Gen 4 9mm before dropping the cash.

I have been spending a healthy amount of time at our range teaching and with all the changes to our pistols out of the 60 students I have had this month the only malfunctions I have seen were ammunition related.

The thing is agencys get the fixes before the general market is taken care of. Free guinea pigs and a way to research issues in the field and under a divers amount of trained shooters with iinstructors to decide if it was human error, ammo or the gun itself. We run about 500 of the same model and a handfull of 23's and 27's.

When you are having 40 or 50 go down with the same problem or 400 of them with bad triggers its an issue.

Don't freak out. I bet my life on a Gen 4 G-22 everyday. I am confident it will do what i need it to do when it needs to do it. The reason is every time they change something I put about 500 rounds through it.

ANother thing to rember with the lemons i have seen I was never issued on in either the gen 3 or 4. The only malfunction I have ever had was a bad magazine. So don't freak out but verify that the pistol works. And 500 rounds of ammo is some good training if you put it to good use. 175 bucks worth of training and piece of mind.

Trouble in the Skunks den. Our wireless router went out today. I guess we should consider ourselves lucky. We've had it for about 8 years, and it was used when we got it. Oh My stepson is the one that actually got it when he was staying with us for about a year so actually it hasn't cost us anything. I'm going to go by Wally world in the morning when I get off and see what they've got. Our present one is a Linksys and it has been pretty good.

Oh, things aren't totally bad, It appears that he ordered me the Lord of the Rings (all 3) for a late birthday present! They came Wednesday, Can't wait to watch them, I've heard it is a GREAT trilogy.

Hi Randy

My mistake, trying to read things on the phone it gets a bit difficult to be sure about who posted what when reading a lot.

I can't comment on the pictures yet, takes to much space, phone bums out, will have a look later.

The heat has left today. I am cold on site, raining and I don't have adequate clothing, been on the phone with office ordering new clothing, site work with oil also damages clothing. But really, can't complain other then just being cold. I am healthy.

I ordered a zippo hand warmer for coming months, jip, I am a little girl, I hate getting that freezing bite cold in my hands. In South Africa our clothing is not geared to the colds we have been experiencing. I talked to some friends in Germany, they got rid of their 'winter' clothes they bought here since it is not up to standard and over priced. So I guess if I don't want to be coled at all I will have to import proper clothing from places like Minnesota or other places that can get really cold.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/15/12 04:44 PM

Glad the heat has left you, but I'm sorry you are experiencing cold weather. It can get bad. Like I tell folks around here, At least you're working! Lot of folks around here don't have a job. I am thankful every day I have a job, and one that I like.

And on that note, I'm outta here, my relief will be here momentarily and I gotta get ready for the briefing.

IF I get our internet wireless router working I will probably be back on later today, if not, tonight once I get back to work.

EVERYONE, take care, peace and rest to you all and those you love.

Watching an interesting movie (syfy channel)about the next step in DHS war on terror, just to keep us all safe don't ya know. It's called EYEBORGS. Oh and have you heard that it is now (or soon will be) a FELONY to protest in the presence of the Secret Service.

Proposed US law bans protesting near anyone who rates a Secret Service detail
By Cory Doctorow at 9:50 am Friday, Mar 2 (from boingboing.net)

HR437, "the Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act of 2011" makes it illegal to protest in the vicinity of anyone who rates a Secret Service detail (even if you aren't aware of the person's presence), thus sparing politicians and VIPs the ugly and unseemly spectacle of having to confront voters who disagree with their policies. Only three Congressmen voted against it.

On top of that, the punishment can be pretty severe. You can get up to a year in jail for being found guilty of these things, and that jumps up to 10 years if you are carrying a "deadly or dangerous weapon."

As Amash notes, there are legitimate safety concerns to be aware of, and there are issues with doing something that significantly impedes government regulations. But it's really not difficult to see how this bill could very, very easily be stretched to be used against those doing standard protesting against significant political figures.

Have a Nice Day. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Some guy at the range overheard me and the owner of the range talking about silencers. The stranger walked up and said in a snotty tone, "it's a suppressor not a silencer."

We both laughed at him and the owner replied, "I understand that, but who am I to change the name from what the inventor called it?"

Cool Tree. The only one I have messed with was just a round pipe and the disks were welded onto a bar and another pipe rotated around the central pipe. Crude and homemade, but it worked.

I would be concerned that over time the leather may come apart somewhat if you just butt it up against the other piece. Now IF you lined it with a single piece glued to all the outside pieces, that probably wouldn't be a concern.

I like to eat before I come in to work, then again about 11pm or so, and I can go the rest of the night without more than a little snack. We ate about 7pm or so tonight, and I was gonna be starving by the time I got off.

I like celery and ranch dressing pretty well, and I love soup. Problem is, they just aren't filling to me. I can have a bowl of soup and still be scrounging for some grub.

A lot of folks don't see it as a "Loss of freedoms/rights". All they see is that the Government is helping out those who are having problems. That's ok, I feel the government SHOULD help those who need it, TO AN EXTENT. The problem is that once you give someone something for so long they begin to consider it a "Right" when in fact it was (or should have been) a temporary measure to help them over the hump.

It is just hazy here in Salt Lake with a bit of sprinkling.

The main reason I complained was because I didn't want it to mess with today's training session. Even though the radar over the mountains looked grim, I went anyway. Here is where I slayed myself today - Summit Park route: 6,800 to 7,300 feet elevation, 5.3 miles. Run time: 00:37:12. Feel pretty good about that time.

I am letting my body cool down for a few before I clean the sweat off me. I hate taking a shower and my body still making sweat after the shower. Defeats the purpose. Once I get cleaned up, I plan to go get a brew or two and some food.

The commander of the legion here gave me a complementary membership the first day I went in. He is a Marine and there are only two others besides myself who are members.

The Legion is the only place I get an actual home cooked meal these days. I have been surviving on protein shakes, vitamin water, canned foods like Hormels Turkey Chili and the like.

Sherly, the cook, always comes up to me when I walk in and ask if I a there to eat. Then, before I have a chance to say anything, she says, "of course you are." And, off to the kitchen she goes. She is about 60, a widow and lost her son and grand kids a few years. Bad car accident. She has taken me in as an adopted family of sorts.

PFT scores are weighed heavily on promotion boards in the Marine Corps. We have a promotion board about to assemble in July. I have a PFT in May. I want to make sure I get a perfect score of 300.

You're NOT old, but I do know what you are talking about. When I was in Japan I ran 2-3 miles at least 3 times a week if I could. I put about 5 miles a day on my "work bicycle" and tried to ride about 50 miles a week AT LEAST on my "racer". I actually enjoyed it but wasn't trying to break any speed records.

I didn't say I am old. Just that my body needs more heal time than it used to. I go to the gym 5-6 days a week an hour each time and run 4 days a week for no less than 3 miles. I also ride my bike to work everyday which is 7 miles one way. There are days when I have training scheduled and have to decide against it, because my body hurts. Not sore. Hurts.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/19/12 07:32 AM

Looks cool, but in our Service C uniform our shirts are tucked in and have straps that connect to the bottom of the shirt in four points around the body and to the ankle. The shirt stays pull the shirt down keeping it tightly tucked. Getting a weapon under my shirt would take some time.

The only options I have are to either put the weapon in a pocket or on my ankle.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/19/12 07:48 AM

I wear one everyday with my uniform. Over the vest and beneath the shirt. With the LCP you can not tell its there. I have well developed pecs so if I keep it between my arm pit and pectoral muscles its invisible.

I'm too fat to carry the G-27 like that right now. When I drop a few pounds the G-27 will be hard to see in the same setup.

If I need it I won't unbutton it. I will just rip them out if it has to be fast. If you have time unbuttoning it works very well. I can run our qualification course from this rig with little difficulty. I can't stand ankle holsters. They are better than nothing but not by much if you need it in a hurry. We discourage their use but we don't outright ban it.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/20/12 05:48 AM

Ok, it's on the airwaves now, SO, here's what I got to deal with EARLY Sunday morning. TO MUCH ST. PATTY'S DAY!

A convicted sex offender is back behind bars after what authorities call a brutal weekend rape in Stoddard County.

According to court papers, it all started at Charley Brown's Bar in Advance Saturday night.

Authorities say Steve Rendleman, 51, allegedly left with the victim in his truck, took her to a cemetery, and raped her.

"I think had it not been for deputies' good instincts to know where he might be headed it could have been worse. Those instincts could have saved her life," said Stoddard County Sheriff Carl Hefner.

According to court papers, the woman became "incoherent and unconscious." Records state a bar employee removed her from the bar through the back door.

The bar owner's son tells Heartland News that person was the bouncer. According to court papers, Rendleman helped the bouncer put the women in a white Dodge truck. Apparently the woman's friends called police as soon as they realized she was with Rendleman.

"Being familiar with the suspect, my deputies knew a general area where he may be going," said Sheriff Hefner.

Authorities say Rendleman took the victim to Liberty Hill Cemetery, near his mother's home south of Advance.

"It's a very remote area," said Sheriff Hefner. "My deputies instinctively knew to go check the cemetery. She ran to the, ran to the patrol car and got in the back seat and told the deputy that she was being raped."

According to the probable cause statement, a sheriff's deputy caught Rendleman in the act at the cemetery.

From the cemetery, Sheriff Hefner says Rendleman didn't go quietly. He led deputies on a chase and allegedly tried to run them over.

The deputy fired seven rounds toward the truck's rear tires. As Rendleman left the cemetery, another deputy fired several rounds into the truck.

"He resisted arrest and locked the doors and windows. He put the truck in drive and tried to ram the deputies car," said Sheriff Hefner.

Rendleman led police on a high speed chase down County Road 219 and County Road 223 where the deputy found his truck in a pole barn, according to court documents. That's when Rendleman allegedly tried to hit the deputy's vehicle again with his truck and took off on County Road 223 through a flooded road where he got stuck.

The deputy broke the glass of his truck and as Rendleman reached for his glove compartment, the deputy used his Taser. When Rendleman refused to surrender, the deputy used the Taser again and Rendleman surrendered.

After deputies tasered Rendleman twice, records say he finally stated, 'I'm done."

Rendleman was arrested on charges of forcible rape - serious physical injury, forcible sodomy - causing serious physical injury, kidnapping - facilitating a felony, felonious restraint, two counts of attempted assault first degree on law enforcement officer, one count of first degree property damage and one count of resisting or interfering with felony arrest.

Rendleman was found guilty of rape in Cape Girardeau County in 1984, guilty of rape in Stoddard County in 1990, and pleaded guilty to sexual misconduct in Cape Girardeau County in 2009.

Stoddard County Sheriff Carl Hefner says Rendleman is a registered sex offender out of Bollinger County. Hefner says Rendleman was released from prison a couple years ago.

Prosecutors call Rendleman a danger to society. He's being held without bond.

The victim was treated at a hospital and released.

Victim's friends ask the community's support. Meanwhile, they say it breaks their heart something like this could happen in our city.

I was following the chase on the map, and directing officers to try to block off any ways off the involved and intersecting roads. I had Troopers coming up from the south, Deputies coming from the East and West and a City cop I dispatched South, to try and box this scumbag in. He finally got stuck on a county road in about two feet of water where he was ahem, professionally cuffed and stuffed!

We got him, shame he didn't resist.

Randy the state says your weapon must be in a holster when on your person and they were not considering the clip to qualify as a holster it was going to the state supreme court for clarification and if found guilty they would loose their right to carry, i chose to take mine off until they get it right, i liked using it at night when i would have to go out side or even down stairs it just clipped to my jeans or shorts without a belt or holster .

We have proven time and time again that the more responsible people that carry concealed the crime rates go down. I guess its a gun culture here though.

Yep went through a dozen mags. All was fine Intill my dad loaded spent brass in for practise clearing jams and malfunctions. He had me draw fire double taps and move for cover while firing. Then it interesting with the spent brass to clear. He is a great teacher. He was in a military spec op group then went through the Ohio state Patrole academy and had some of the highest driving and shooting scores they ever had. He really pushes you for shooting perfection.

The drill instructors make them call all Marines "sir" until they become Marines themselves when they graduate, but I still hate it. I walked by an entire platoon of recruits today and had to here "good morning sir" 80 something times in a row. The next platoon started the same thing until I said "shut the &%$# up", then in unison, they said "aye aye sir"

I went through about 7 problem free mags while prictising drawing firing while moving for cover before it happened. I pulled the trigger and got a loud click then my dad started yelling clear and fire clear and fire. He had loaded spent brass into my mags at a random order to make me practise clearing jams and failure to fire. I did three mags of that and then we ran out of his 25 year old fmj range ammo. Learned some and had a great time.

I am bigger on practice than on the ranger plates for pistols. I guess if you were wearing heavy gloves they might have a purpose. I see more cons than pros to them.

The best thing for reloading/loading under stress is plenty of practice. I practice combat reloads and tac reloads with empty mags and weapons. Very honestly you fight like you train. I have found that I will do things without making a concious decision to do them because I have trained that way. Thats why it is important to train correctly.

I spend at least 4 times as much time doing dry runs with weapons manipulations and dry firing as I do on trigger time with live ammo. It makes a world of difference. When I am doing live fire excercises its much more productive.

I like the g23. It is a great gun. I like 40 more than the 9 for a couple reasons but you have some nice advantages with the 40.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/22/12 05:36 AM

I shoot the 9mm well, and I'm sure the lack of recoil is a bit part of it. Recoil doesn't bother me, but I'm sure it doesn't help either.

I had a .40 Sig P229, and I got rid of it. Partially because of me moving to one platform (Glock) and partially because I just plain needed the money. I miss it every now and then.

People like my daughter that have trouble with recoil do a lot better with the 9mm. She just can't shoot a .40, it's too snappy for her.

I know that .40 knocks down steel plates with a lot of authority, more so than 9mm. And I don't mind the extra recoil. I think I just shoot the Glock better than I do the Sig platform.

next time I'm ready to buy a handgun I'm going tolook at the glock again. keeping online that I would without doubt have to has a slip on grip. but I'm pretty sure I want a fnx. just no getting past the rep of a glock so I will give them another look.

since i can't honestly see taking advantage of what .40 offers over 9mm I'm saving that money the next time around. glad I got my keltec sub2000 in .40 but that's probably it for me and that round.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/22/12 06:38 AM

i know but I can beat how they feel in my hand. so next time ill look at them knowing I would have to have the slip on. if it wasn't for that option glocks would be totally ruled out. too many other guns out there feel way more natural to me.

speaking of... I held one of the little pony .380 pistols today. felt really good. better than any small semi auto pistol ive held to date. i really don't want a .380 but it might be an option when I look at ccw. I also see that sig is doing a 9mm based on that. if the size is small enough and the weight is decent i may have to take a look. but a g26 or any of those other compact 9mm just don't work for me. rather stick with my 442...

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/22/12 08:15 AM

You are not alone, many very good rounds die off quickly for no other reason then they are not the "right caliber"
In North America 8mm, 33 cal, 35 cal generally don't sell well.
We literally have dozens of different 30 caliber options in North America when logical sense would say that really we need less than a tenth of that number

Posted By: coyotebc

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/22/12 08:39 AM

I used a 30/06 for a while and the only reason I sold it was because I didn't like the rifle.
In real world terms the 308 and 30/06 are about equal, iirc the 30/06 has around 12% more muzzle velocity when shooting 180 grain bullets of like construction from the same manufacturer.
So what a 308 will do at 200 yards a 30/06 can do at 225 yards.
The 30/06 will also handle higher grain bullets better.
Given a choice between a 308 or 30/06 I would base it on which rifle fitted my better

my 10/22 has run pretty good. aside from cheap ammo its gone through everything I stuck in it without a hitch. even picked up some aquila colbri ammo for it. stuff is quieter than my shrouded air benjamin discovery but it doesnt hit quite as hard. have to say I have been really surprised at what airguns are capable of. my 10/22 might get a bit dusty if I keep tinkering around.

My favorite 22 is a bolt action Ranger repeater that was built in the early 1900's, one of my uncles gave it to me not long before he died.
My oldest daughter is getting it one day, and my youngest is getting her mom's first 22

Most of the talk about why one cartridge is better than another is really just talk.
For deer hunting in my area anything in the 270, 38, 30/06 class of firearms are really pretty much the same.
My 30/30 and 44 marlin are just as good for 80% of the hunting I do

Same here. I'd be pretty happy with just those two guns in this part of the world.

well airguns here seemed to be fairly untouched by firearm laws. and when you get into big bore stuff you are looking at deer and hog territory... but the paper work for the gadgets doesn't exist.

Yes
If it is a pistol then it is classed restricted and can only be shot at a range.
The same rules apply to it as any other pistol.
If it is a rifle then it is non-restricted, but the same rules apply as if it was a rifle.
Under 500 fps than it is not federally regulated

well that's fps and not fpe like uk. wonder if you can get away with a larger caliber doing 500 fps. maybe wouldn't make up for much but a .38 at 500 fps would do a lot more damage than .177. don't know how fast the .50's are shooting but there are a a few around.

yup I think it's like 14 fpe that will dust a squirrel and maybe a rabbit. with .22 cals here I see people making claims of low 30's. I think a .22 short is 40-60 fpe. so it seems canada is being pretty strick. but I'm constantly seeing guys here pushing the boundaries of what airguns can do. like the fa .22...

If the Crossman upper had a muzzle velocity of 500 fps or more and a m.e of 4.2 it would be classified as restricted and could only be shot at an approved range.

the numbers really do get up there. scuba tanks and all that... but you do get to put a whole lot of lead in the air for cheap once the money is spent.

the smaller sheaper calibers get pretty tempting. I think i would like to look into a big bore air rifle at some point but I don't think I can spend $2k on something like that. there some Korean made rifles that keep it under $1k but getting air into them cancer pricey.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/22/12 03:00 PM

Like I said, I don't particularly care for a top feed, but it's NOT a deal breaker. My PRIMARY objection is the size. the 180 stove folds down to a very flat and compact package thereby taking up a lot less room. I DO think the Wood gas Stove would burn longer and hotter though.

We are on Marine Recruit Depot Sand Diego (boot camp) and we had already broken a sweat and our backs before the recruits had gotten out of their racks! When they finally got out to the fields for their PT session (which ended well before ours despite starting an hour later) the look on their faces was epic. The drill instructors stopped their PT and put them in formation to watch sergeants, staff sergeants, gunnery sergeants and a major move past their field. "That's what real PT is you maggots" I heard the drill instructor say to them.

Not really. He used us being exhausted to see who would step up and take a leadership role under stressful conditions. I was told to shut up since the exercise was for the staff sergeants of the substation and NOT for us headshed guys.

We are going to watch a platoon of fresh recruits do their initial strength test in the morning, then we are flying out of here at noon.

No plans to come back, but since this is where the Western Recruiting command is, I am sure I'll be back.

I wouldn't mind a dedicated 22lr set up like my running rig. Just to keep the barrel leading down on my rig. Great for cheap training as long as they are set up the same.

On a funny note, we had a team bowling tournament last night. 4 teams of 4 in a double elimination. First place didn't get a prize, but second place had to clean up afterward. Third place had to address everyone in the two teams above them as grand master all day today and the last place had to do whoopee jumps. This is just squatting and the jumping high spreading out all limbs and yelling "whoopee!"

The last place team was my CO, a major, and our sergeant major. They had to do the whoopee jumps in the bowling alley. It was epic!

Not I.

I did see something hilarious jut now though.

I walked to the post exchange to get a couple 22s of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. I had to cross a training field where four recruits were in a row in the kneeling firing position with toilet plungers for rifles. The one in the back ran forward and leaped over each of the other three kneeling recruits. When he reached the front of the line, he took a knee, swept the area with his "weapon" and yelled clear before the last guy repeated the process. When i asked "what the hell are you doing?" One said "tactical leap frog sir!"

Then I noticed two drill instructors doing a great job of keeping a straight face. I did not.

I want to do a brick and mortar place so people don't have the same issue I do. The problem is buying enough stock from different manufacturers and still being able to cover expenses.

can do inventory out of a storage unit for first couple years. setup special order and walk in orders through the website. build up enough inventory and and a strong enouh customer base to handle a Brock and mortar.

if you want to look into options it I think I could help you.

Cabela's has in store only sales sometimes. It is worth checking out. I bought a military ammo can full of 5.56 there for a decent price a while back.
Wholesale Sports does the same with surplus 7.62 x 39 russian

Every once in a while I get hooked up from range guys at the local base, but I mostly buy my ammo from the gun shop that gives free range time and free rental uses to military and law enforcement. There are cheaper places to buy ammo in town, but they deserve my business.
Good onyou for that

It is easy to repay them in that small way. They match prices on guns and give discounts to us service members too. I try to buy all my stuff there. It is run and owned by a bunch of former LEO and military guys too.

Here is a link for current online ammo prices.

Not bad for checking prices but always check what they charge for shipping. I have seen some crazy variances for the same stuff.

When I was growing up in a small town we had a great little gun store.
I grew up and moved one town over
Every year until Tony retired and sold the business I would go there to buy my license, tags and a few needed items.
I even did that during the 7 years when my brother worked for a competitor

If that same screw is exported as a machine screw then no export permit required

How do you find the handle

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/23/12 09:04 AM

I would sharpen mine if I had something other than a dremel. It is hard to move heavy tools every few years. Darn military orders.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/23/12 09:05 AM

Its still a tiny bit small for my hands but I like it a lot. It batons very well through everything I have thrown at it so far. Went through a few knots with no issues. No shock to speak of through the handle.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/23/12 09:10 AM

I know the 5-11 was a small handle. The 7-11 handle works for me. It would be perfect if it was just a hair bigger though.

There are shops on bases, but I am living 40 minutes from the nearest base and it is Air Force. Most Air Force bases don't have anything other than a "public" auto shop. Army and Marines usually have wood and machine shops though.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/23/12 09:14 AM

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/23/12 09:22 AM

I can't be 100% sure since there isn't a scale to judge the handle size but both of them look shorter and a bit less wide. Maybe Klink or another Dog will have a DM and a 7-11 to do a side by side comparison.

Thats one of the very few perks to being a Firearms Instructor for my agency. I get access to the range when it not being used for other classes. Plus we can shoot during breaks and lunch or after we shut down the Academy or inservice training.

Yeah, those are the ones I saw. Check the video I posted.

I am thinking ball rounds would be best to make them last the longest. Also, the square one doesn't look like it would move to much with a 22lr. I am thinking the round one would be best for my 22/45. Not the solid one though.

They claim the solid ball handles 10,000 rounds. Even if that is a gross exaggeration, it should hold up for a long time as a personal target.

I have the same want. I got a good start with the Action Target dueling tree. I figure one or two of those balls and a gong for distance would be a decent and easy to move/set up range for camping and such.

Well she isn't getting sick like she was there for a while. But she's wore out. We did yard work for two days and worked on painting our storage shed one day.

Doing pretty good. It's getting about 7-8 mpg better than the Explorer was, which is great considering gas is up to $3.89 here today.

It was $3.78 yesterday, but when I get paid it jumps up 10 cent a gallon. Grrrrr!

I'm already just sitting at home instead of driving my truck around just because of the gas prices and how bad my truck does on mileage.

Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/23/12 12:25 PM

It's doing good to get 12-13 mpg. But since I only live 4 miles from work, I can live with it if I'm careful to not waste trips to town.

My personal opinion is that half our guys should be in SUV's, just because of the rough roads we have. I hate telling people that it'll be a while before our deputy gets there because he has to come to the office to get a 4wd.

The Escape gets 7-8 mpg BETTER than the Explorer, that was only getting about 17 mpg.

Ok, I either somehow skipped over the post about your truck and the explorer getting that mileage or it didn't show it until I refreshed the page again.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/23/12 12:35 PM

If we go on a long steady drive, the truck will get up to 22 mpg. We've actually gotten just a tad bit better than that once on a steady interstate drive of about 150 miles.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/23/12 12:37 PM

But around here locally, anywhere from 17 on up depending on if we figure in a Mingo trip or not. That slow 5-10 mph speed for 3-5 hours really kills the mileage.

Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/23/12 12:47 PM

I'm not REAL fond of laying backward or forward for riding, I prefer what they call a standard bike where you sit pretty much straight up.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/23/12 12:48 PM

Something like a Honda Nighthawk or a Harley Sportster fits the bill pretty well. The one I want is a Harley Fat Bob, and it can be set up like a standard with middle controls.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/23/12 12:49 PM

But I don't have $14k to drop on a bike right now, so I'm looking at getting something like the Nighthawk just to run around town on.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/23/12 12:52 PM

I've read y'all talking about controls before, what does middle controls mean?
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/23/12 12:53 PM

Forward controls are way up on the front of the frame, so you can ride with your legs straight out. Mid controls are set up at about the rear of the gas tank (or maybe a little forward of there) and work better for people like me that have short legs.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/23/12 12:54 PM

I'm not comfortable riding with my feet out in front of me, partially because my legs are short and partially because I feel like I'm being blown backward all the time.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/23/12 01:03 PM

Cruiser bikes (Harleys, Honda Shadows, Yamaha V-Star's) are usually set up with forward controls. Standards are usually mid-controls and crotch rockets are rear controls.

simple and plain, i'm goning to have to get rid of at&t. it's always something with them!

i burn through 5gb's of data on my phone every single month and last month my Internet at home went down so I hit the top 5% in data users. if I recall I was tipping on 9gb's which really isn't a whole lot compared to what you can actually do. so now I'm seeing that they will throttle you down once you hit 3gb's!!! I'm at 2800 right now and the billing cycle doesn't start again until the 5th. which means I'm screwed if should ever have to rely on at&t for Internet.

i try not to have ill will towards business but man at&t just keeps finding ways to suck. like they are bullying their customers. that's a tough pill to swallow when you are already charging too much on top of the frequent fraudulent billing.

yup... it's like big businesses are milking every dime out of it and then squandering it all. it seems lime once consumers fell for the automatic phone answering system big businesses realized they dont actually have to provide any type of decent service or products.

i think it's a price fixing thing with at&t. convince everybody to pay more money for something they will constantly want more of. just like gas companies...

I had a $20 data plan in 2006 and ran a slingbox on a htc phone all day long. never a peep... but as soon as streaming media got popular they are acting like $50 a month for a few steps up is cool. just milking it...

I did this from 25 yards away with 24 rounds. There is not a room in my house longer than 10 yards. "You've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya punk?"

simple and plain, i'm goning to have to get rid of at&t. it's always something with them!

i burn through 5gb's of data on my phone every single month and last month my Internet at home went down so I hit the top 5% in data users. if I recall I was tipping on 9gb's which really isn't a whole lot compared to what you can actually do. so now I'm seeing that they will throttle you down once you hit 3gb's!!! I'm at 2800 right now and the billing cycle doesn't start again until the 5th. which means I'm screwed if should ever have to rely on at&t for Internet.

i try not to have ill will towards business but man at&t just keeps finding ways to suck. like they are bullying their customers. that's a tough pill to swallow when you are already charging too much on top of the frequent fraudulent billing.
Lazi, my wife works customer service for AT&T wireless, and you're exactly right. She stays stressed out because she gets chewed out for being "soft" and writing off stuff on customers bills. She hates it and is trying to find something else. I can't count how many days she's come home in tears over her job.

Hi yard

It was shipped with USPS to a PO Box. So hopefully the package will pop up or else I will have to order another one, kind of a pain because I will have to redo the paypal thing etc because credit card was cancelled due to cloning of the card and theft. I am not 'credit liable' because I have no credit on my name, so they really don't want to give me a [censored] card. I hate credit, but its the only way I can buy something from the states.

You can always get a debit card and use that. They work just like a credit card except it uses the money you have in the bank instead of borrowing. Forgive me if I am insulting your intelligence. I don't mean to.

there's always prepaid cards. also there's the paypal card. those are the two options I use over my debit cards.

butyuh, I also avoid credit cards and a coulle years ago found out they didn't want to give me one just because I avoided them so long. a guy i know racks up on cardsevery coulle years and then cantoay then off and every couple years he gets a new card. like they love him... crazy...

Not insulting at all as I am NOT skilled in these things. Give me a tool and I can work with that. Give me a computer, a manual, a person sitting with me and a few hours (strange concidering I am 26 years old)

Can one set up a PayPal using a debit card?

I ask because the place that sells the Manix I want (so so bad) only takes PayPal.

I will have to look into the pre paid cards. Hopefully my bank has such an option. Never heard of a paypal preloaded card.

So more research to be done when I get back home.thanks for the advice!

Yes. You can setup paypal with a debit card. You can also send Paypal checks, money orders or cashiers checks from the bank to load your Paypal account.

You can also link a Paypal account directly to a checking account and have it automatically withdraw from it when you use your Paypal account.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/24/12 08:08 AM

when you have your paypal account setup they can also issue you a debit card that pulls right from you paypal.

also in almost all cases when you see something for sell with paypal you can just use a card to pay. paypal generally pushes this feature towards the bottom and keeps it in small print. reason is they want people to sign up so pushing the fact that people can just use a debit or credit card doesn't really help them.

paypal and at&t both pretty much suck whenever they want to though!

Grilled asparagus is the perfect compliment to a good steak. Especially if you can find the big thick stalks of it.

You know what is the best thing about it?

John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was born on 3 January 1892 in Bloemfontein in the Orange Free State (now Free State Province, part of South Africa) to Arthur Reuel Tolkien (1857–1896), an English bank manager, and his wife Mabel, née Suffield (1870–1904). The couple had left England when Arthur was promoted to head the Bloemfontein office of the British bank for which he worked. Tolkien had one sibling, his younger brother, Hilary Arthur Reuel, who was born on 17 February 1894.

Yes...the writer was a South African Randy.

Randy

I remember random things I read and if I recall it I search for again to confirm.

I found the reference on Wikipedia though, but read it first in one of the original books when they talked about the author.

Going good except trying to figure out PayPal. Going to give it a skip and try and sort it out in a few weeks when I have some time off (seems I need some form of credit card, no other options in South Africa). 3 months of 12 hour shifts are getting a bit hectic.

I spent to much on supplements again though....getting my body in shape and fit again.

The Y'all and thang is something we dont understand....if you speak Sebenza, Umnumzaan, Mnandi, Dumela, Koghle, Goeie dag, julle....that we understand <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/24/12 01:42 PM

HAHA, I know Sebenza, and Umnumzaan (I have a small classic 2000 sebbie I named "Little Sebbie" in honor of my wife's sister Debbie that died of colon cancer in 2000). My Umnumzaan I named uncle Um, must cause it rolls off the tongue so well.

OK, Y'all as I know you know is just a contraction of you and all, meaning everyone and Thang is just a lazy way of saying thing. We also say "Coke", meaning ANY soda (around here a lot of us day Sodee for soda). We have different dialects (If that is what you want to call them) just like they do anywhere else in the world. It's just fun to make fun of them (Ourselves included) at times. JUST so we don't take ourselves to serious.

I hear you, I REALLY regret selling my Sig P229, but, can't cry over sold guns.

I've thought about getting my CCW but really all I want it for is traveling around the state. There are getting to be so many places that won't allow carry in their facilities that it's almost like not being to have one at all.

Here in Missouri now that we have the CCW law, you CAN carry a weapon in your vehicle, LOADED, just as long as it's not concealed on your person. Before you couldn't have a loaded firearm in your vehicle at all. And IF you did have a weapon, the weapon and ammo could NOT be easily accessible for anyone in the passenger compartment.

Speaking of Sagan and DeGrasse. I just stole this from wiki

On August 5, 2011, plans were announced for a sequel to the series (Cosmos: a Personal Voyage, hosted by Sagan), bringing up-to-date special effects and scientific discoveries to the themes and messages of the original series. The new series, slated to air on Fox sometime between Fall 2013 to Spring 2014[10], is to be hosted by astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson and will be produced by popular science broadcaster and author, and Sagan's widow, Ann Druyan, as well as Seth MacFarlane.[11]

Don't know about other weapons, but with the Sig P229 all you needed to do was swap out the barrel and recoil spring. Everything else was the same. Didn't even have to use different magazines.

Here you have to get a background and fingerprint check ($90.50) and take an 8 hour class from a civilian firearms instructor on carry laws and lawful/unlawful use of your weapon, pass the written and shooting (from 7 yards) and you're pretty much good to go. Permit is good for 3 years.

I remember reading that(about the kid "Correcting you"). When talking specifics, I try and be as accurate as possible for clarity's sake, but when just talking among folks that know, generic terms are fine. Silencer is just a generic term to me, just like here we use "Coke" when asking someone if they want a soft drink. Then if they do we ask what kind.

Ok, it was during my secret squirrel years. I went to the chow hall for lunch one day and someone stole my ball type hat (cover) it was the od color when we wore cammies. ANYWAY, I found a Marine hat (Cover) and it fit perfectly and I really like the way it was pleated, not just a green ball cap like the AF had. Anyway, I wore that about a year until I got caught by the General. I don't know If he believed my story or not, but he liked me so he just told me to get the CORRECT hat. I told my colonel (he know about my hat but never said anything because HE was wearing the same kind, but His Lt. Col insignia covered the Globe Anchor and Eagle. BUT the SAME General caught him one day about 6 months later. I didn't let him live that down the remaining 6 months I was there. I DO miss that hat, yours was a lot better looking than ours, as was and still are your Dress uniforms.

Good news, though my Manix is MIA, still, I should receive my BUSSE Basic 4 this week if all goes well and at the end of the week I have some time off. Great! After 3 months of 12 hour shifts it will be greatly appreciated!

Sorry I'm late back to the party. Patty decided it was a good day to go to Mingo. Today we saw 3 coons, a muskrat only 8 deer and a snapping turtle just sedately walking across the road until we got out to take pics. Bet that thing had a shell a foot long! And MAN did he get mad when I hooked a cane on his shell so patty could get some pics. I had to keep dragging him back around as he was heading for the swamp! Then when we got back I watched the last of the Lord of the Rings. I just don't understand why Frodo had to leave as well.

The closest we have to desert canyons is the Visriver canyon and then our neighbors Namibia has some awesome scenery.

Cool beans. There is a great book: Three Against the Wilderness where the family traps muskrat for their fur. Awesome book.

I went to Hill AFB today to see the audiologist for the third time in a month. She finally ordered my new hearing aid. Old one is dead. I couldn't get the inside the canal type since my hearing has gotten to the "severe" hearing loss levels. So, I got a behind the ear one. I went with a black one with chrome accents. It is water and shock proof. It has bluetooth so I can connect it to my phone and has a blutooth remote I can plug my ipod into for wireless music. Listening to earphones while in uniform or running on a base even in civilian attire is prohibited, but I will soon have a loophole.

This one is similar to the one I ordered except the accent on mine is chrome. I just did a quick search for the prices, the package I am getting is $1,700 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> I never knew these things were so expensive.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/27/12 07:01 AM

Yup, glad to see they're still making movies where evil looses. Another pretty good set of movies (at least we liked them) Is The Chronicles of Narnia. There is a second one but I don't know the name of it. Ok, there's been three.

From Wikipedia:

The Chronicles of Narnia is a series of English fantasy films from Walden Media that are based on The Chronicles of Narnia, a series of novels written by C. S. Lewis. From the seven books, there have been three film adaptations so far—The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (2005), Prince Caspian (2008), and The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (2010).[1]

The series revolves around the adventures of children in the fictional world of Narnia, guided by Aslan, a talking lion and the true king of Narnia. Most of the children featured were the Pevensie siblings and the prominent antagonist featured was the White Witch (sometimes known as Jadis, who came from a different world in The Magicians Nephew). While the films tried to follow the novels' traditional storyline and Christian themes, they also added deviations from the source material, including the Greek Mythology and Irish fairy tales.

It was an honour bestowed upon him for being one of the ring bearers,
He was setting sail for the Gray Havans (sp?).
Bilbo was given the same honour because he too was a ring bearer.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/27/12 08:05 AM

If you ever decide to read the original Trilogy you will see that there was some very tragic things that happened as well.
The Shire had been conquered and the hobbits were enslaved, Merry, Pippin and Sam led the revolt that freed them.
After Aragorn died of old age (sort of) Arewen (sp), was heart-broken but no boat would take her to the gray havens so she wanders lonely in the forest forever heart-broken
The ents never do find the ent-wives
All the elves leave Middle Earth

The book has much deeper meaning than the movie

You'll just have to get used to a different schedule. It's rough. I know It helped a lot when we put foil on the bedroom windows. I had double tinted them, but the foil worked a lot better, and from the outside you really can't tell it's foil on the windows, almost looks like a mirror tint. You might try closing your bedroom door and getting a desk fan. I've done the fan thing for over 30 years, every night all year long.

I am just doing a drive by before bed.
I thought you might like to know I might be adopting one of two dogs.
Not sure if either will work out
The first is a seven year old female rat terrier, she is blind in one eye. The elderly lady that owns here can no longer look after her.
The other is a jack Russell cross female that is seven months old, her owners aren't sure if they are keeping her or not

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/28/12 10:09 AM

One thing is that she doesn't like the bedroom windows darkened out. I'd tin foil them in a second if she wouldn't fuss about it. I want it dark and she doesn't, but only because she doesn't sleep during the day. Now that she IS sleeping during the day, I'm wondering if she'll change her tune.

HI BILL! Good on you. Personally I would say the Jack Russell, course I am prejudiced considering that is what Penny is. But she is still a pup and will require a lot of patience. They are a lively breed, as is the Rat terrier. Either way, I commend you on taking on this task. You ARE a good man Bill, and not just because of this. Stay That Way.

Around here we have walnut, oak, LOTS of oak, some ash, Hickory, Maple, Sassafras and a few others that I just can't remember. Oh and Cypress (at least at Mingo). And some cedar and Pine as well, but that is usually up in the hills. They for some reason seem to like the rockier/(poorer) soil.

Some of those Modular homes are NICE! Definitely bigger than the house we've got. Ours is 1250 sqft. And part of that is the garage, so we've got about 1000 sqft of living space. It's big enough living space, but not enough junk space!

You really really need to stress to them that it IS necessary, if for no other reason than to insure the taxes are paid correctly and on time before all three of you wind up loosing it.

Plus the hassle the other one or two of you would have to go through if something was to happen to one or two of you. The Government can find ways of taking it away if there is any kind of loophole at all, and the only way to keep that from happening is a will. heck Mom and Dad has a will and I am the only heir! that's just so the government can't get their foot in the door in any way shape or form.

I'll have to put leather dressing on it from time to time though as it I think will dry out in the truck in the heat of summer.

Better to get mad at getting woke up for nothing than NOT to get woke up for something.

Like the incident we had two weekends ago. The Sheriff talked to me (But not in a mad way) about not calling him about the rape and chase. I told him that I couldn't get him on the phone and I called the chief deputy and he said HE would get ahold of the Sheriff. I should have kept trying, but I was busy then forgot about calling him.

Everything seems to be going well. Got some changes coming up, but nothing is set in stone.

I do spend too much time over at Bladeforums and not enough time in the Yard. That needs to change. I was a Dog first, but tasting INFI has made me forget my origins, at least momentarily. I have been buying a lot of shiny pointy things lately. I am hoping that knob brings us the 3-11 and 7-11 in different colors. Not that black isn't great, but I have been holding out just in case they bring other colors.

Just did. None are for the gen 4. I can find the steel dual spring rod for just about every model gen 4 except the 21. I'm sure they will eventually make them.

One thing I DO like is even though the blade is "Hooked" it is a VERY gradual curve, actually almost straight and believe it or not would make a good edc blade if it wasn't so big. The "Ring" will help maintain your grip and will actually help you NOT to pull through the cut to far possibly cutting yourself.

PERSONALLY I think mudders would have been a mistake on a knife this size. The mudders would have completely changed the looks and balance. The way it is, just can't be argued with. GREAT little edc. Dan should sell a couple tons of these things. If you have need of a smaller blade, and who doesn't, you need to grab one.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/30/12 03:47 PM

Now the Mudders on the 411, specially if it has a choil will look a lot more aesthetic. The disparity between the blade size and the handle size wouldn't look "Off" like it would have on the 311.

No matter WHAT we may say, the looks of a knife has a lot to do with if we will buy it or not. If it then turns out to be "Perfect" we just consider ourselves lucky.

Happy Birtday!

Well I had some stuff shipped here to South Africa that went MIA and got word that they found it and is on its way. Just got word that one package arrived and waiting at home, another small survival kit is also on its way and then the big package that went MIA should arrive next week. So April seems to start off with a big bang!

I decided that trying to stay up to date and to much forums are taking up to much time of mine. So I decided to start a list of knives from USA companies I want. Been flying through the list and now only need the Para Military2 with CTS 204P, Umnumzaan and Mnandi from the US (but those I don't need right now). Then focus on my own knife designs I want from local custom makers and start focusing on particular forums or sections of particular forums that I want to post on or have a good comunity like the Yard.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/30/12 03:57 PM

Marty, I have read good reviews on the PM2 seems to be a good blade. I DO have an Umnumzaan. Nice knife. Feels good in the hand, very robust. Not a small blade but will I expect do some heavy duty (Folder) work. I also like the steel in mine. I think it's the S30v. And of course the frame is Titanium. It's not a fast opener as it is a bit stiff but you're not buying a super slick dedicated fighter, but a robust dependable work knife.
Posted By: Flux

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/30/12 04:06 PM

Marty,

That's awesome! You must've been worried when it was MIA. Happy birthday to you too.
Posted By: marthinus

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/30/12 04:14 PM

Randy

The PM2 is a great knife for the price you can get in the US. The average price here for the normal one is around $200 with the customs duty and the retailor having to make his profit.

The Umnumzaan is around $600 here. I like my Chris Reeve knives. Had a small, was taken in a mugging but I came out alive so I am happy, got an Insingo now, but the Umnumzaan is calling me. I like mechanics and CRK really pushed the concept of a framelock with the Umnumzaan locking on the ceramic ball in stead of the Ti lock face IMO.

Flux

Thanks for the birthday shout!

I was a bit worried and then I spoke to my GF. She tends to be calm when I am not and vice versa. She told me give it 2 weeks and it will be sorted. That calmed me down. Next week when it arrives it will be 2 weeks to the day <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/30/12 04:19 PM

Marty, Now I'm confused, The Umnumzaan Is a Titanium frame lock where the rubber "Washers" act as a bumper on the dual thumstuds. You're saying that the Um detents open on a ceramic ball with the frame lock keeping it in position?
Posted By: Flux

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/30/12 04:22 PM

Women are smart creatures! I'm getting a Spyderco Sage - the one with the titanium frame lock. Sage 2 I think? It's like a cheapskate's Sebenza. I can spend being myself to drop $500+ on a fixed blade, but when it comes to folders I can't justify it.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/30/12 04:22 PM

I might have gotten it wrong, but His site says this about the Um.

A ceramic ball creates the interface between the blade locking surface and the integral locking arm surface. The ball doubles to drop into a detent on the blade to ensure the blade does not open accidentally.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/30/12 04:25 PM

I remember the pictures you posted up a while back of the Insingo. I like that blade style, it's a nice looking folder.
Posted By: marthinus

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/30/12 04:40 PM

Randy.

As posted the ceramic ball has two functions, one to keep the blade in the closed position like any other framelock and the other as the lock face that moves behind the blade when open to keep it open. When it came out some questioned if the ceramic ball that doubled as the frame lock contact with the blade was durable enough.

Chris Reeve showed him pounding it on an anvil and it dented the anvil, so it can take a considerable amount of impact.

Normal framelocks you have the detent and normal Ti lock face that is heat treated to near ceramic hardness that contacts with the blade to keep the blade open. The Umnumzaan opens and locks on the ceramic ball two birds with one stone. I have a bunch of pictures I could show, but the computer is screwed and I am on the phone, sorry.

Does this make any sense?

I have a detailed post I do based on my talking to makers, reading and talking to engineers about liner and frame locks geometry. I will post it here for you in the folder thread when I can.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/30/12 04:44 PM

Marty, ok IF you mean it has TWO ceramic balls, I understand. If It doesn't I guess I'm still confused. I will just have to look at mine when I get home to try and figure it out. Sometimes my conceptualization skills are lacking.
Posted By: marthinus

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 03/30/12 04:50 PM

Take care Randy.

I think my explenations also suck sometimes when I don't have pictures! Look closely at where the lock contacts the blade. I will try and get some nice pictures to compare normal framelock to the Umnumzaan.

Here are macro shots, NOT my pictures.

[Linked Image from farm7.static.flickr.com]

see how the ceramic ball goes further then the Ti itself? The blade locks on the ceramic ball itself and it functions as the normal ceramic ball that we are use to.

[Linked Image from farm7.static.flickr.com]

[Linked Image from farm7.static.flickr.com]

Here is my old Sebenza

[Linked Image from i840.photobucket.com]

Notice the mark on the lock face where it engages the back of the blade and where the detent is located. This is the normal standard that most framelocks function on.

The Umnumzaan is a while bread requiring so much tolerance to get right it is amazing IMO.

We used to have internet through AT&T, but our phone was always going out so we dumped it and got our internet service through the cable company. We like it a lot better, even with the slowest (cheapest, ok) package they have. Works just fine for us.

well you you can always buy your brother a nice wireless router with a big ole boosted antenna. maybe offer him a little something on his bill each month to share.

after that there's tethering with the cell phone. if the signal is good it will be faster than land line.

Our life would be drastically changed without the internet. Because of Patty's health she spends a LOT of time online. Mainly on fb playing her farming games. That's OK with me, it gives her something to do. She can't do much outside for very long a time. She has suffered from heat stroke before and she DOES NOT SWEAT! She will heat up faster than you can say the sun is out. It REALLY bothers her but there just isn't anything she can do about it. To me our cable bill is VERY worthwhile just so she has something she can do.

They've tried to tell me that the signal won't run uphill. I might believe in signal degradiation over a long distance, but not for an additional 60 yards uphill.

I have been riding a Cannondale Enforement for about 4 years and it is still holding up well. It is my daily commuter (when the weather is tolerable). I would guess it has much more than a thousand miles on it.

I was looking at upgrading to a newer version of the Enforcement, but it seems they no longer are making them in the USA. I like the fact mines says "Handmade in the USA" in black with an American flag on it. Might upgrade some parts this season though.

One of the Marines in my shop just bought a very nice Trek at a pawn shop. We looked at it online and it was going for about a grand. He got his for $150 and it has very little wear. He brought it to a local bike shop (there are tons here since just about everyone rides around here) and had them look it over and give it a tune up for $40. They replaced a small part and said it is as good as new. $190 for a good bike makes checking the pawn shops a worth while alternative.

Looks like a quality part. If you have issues with charging your AR, get it. If you can charge your weapon with either hand, with and without gloves, in the cold snow or heat, then don't waste your money on something you don't need.

I have never had an issue charging any M16 or AR and I have fired zillions of 5.56 rounds.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/01/12 05:04 AM

Also, if you are using your AR for targets, adding the latch shouldn't be an issue. If you are using the AR as a SHTF ready weapon, think about keeping your weapon snag proof. It may not be an issue, but loops like the one on the Badger can get hooked by things.

OK. Now I am changing my mind about a bolt action. I have been debating between a full size bolt action or an Henry AR 7. The take down looks like a good mix of both superior portability and full size weapon.

We do not sell a lot of the bolt action rifles in 22 but the savage for its price and are known to be accurate rifles. unless you are wanting to stay in that price range check out the CZ rifles.

The pouch the stock and receiver sits in is big enough to hold a small red dot without taking it off when in storage.

Judging from the dimensions of the halves of the weapon, I think the bag is about the same size as my Camelbak M.U.L.E. and it fits on it fine.

I would imagine it would work well. But, for me it isn't something I would pay the extra money for, for the same reason I reject the idea of putting the Sparrow on a Five Seven, which the Sparrow is rated for too. A Five Seven round is 40 grains as are some 22LR rounds. The advantage of a Five Seven and 5.56 is the shape of the round, full metal jacket and most importantly the velocity. For a suppressor to work well, you would have to slow the round down to 22LR speeds, subsonic. Just use a 22Lr in that case. Yes, a suppressor will quiet down a supersonic round's pop, but the ballistic crack will still be there.
Posted By: Anonymous

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/01/12 06:48 AM

22LR rounds don't break the sound barrier fired from my 22/45, but will when fired from a 10/22. A 22LR out of a rifle hits about 1200 fps. Sound is about 1125 fps, so there will be sonic boom unless you use subsonic ammo. But, that crack is nothing like a 5.56 crack.

I am not a fan of the integrated silencers. Cleaning seems like it would be a pain. I just want to get the barrel threaded and add a scope and bipod. Of course fill the lower pocket of the bag with mags and rounds and put my 22/45 in the top pouch. The Sparrow will either go in a pouch or be strapped to the Molle webbing in its own pouch.

and it looks that it may actually be easier to get apart than a screw on, the "Supressor" stays in place and only the shroud comes off, or am I missing something here as far as getting it apart for cleaning?

That looks easy enough to clean except if you plan to soak it in solvent. I guess you could just prop the rifle up with the suppressor part in a cup of solvent. I can't justify going through the tax stamp process again or spending the extra money on a setup like that when I can just swap my sparrow between the 22/45 and the 10/22.

I guess that in the actual world situations, the screw on would be the best option and it does make a lot of sense, but that integrated barrel just looks so cool to me. AND if you got the takedown 10/22 there is plenty of space to store the suppressor in there as well.

Man I wish I was rich.

It comes with a strap you can cross body sling the pack with. That with my Maxped. Proteus fanny pack will make a great little hike/hunting setup. The only thing that would make it better would be a hydration bladder compartment, but I my be able to add one. Once I get it in my hands, I will be able to see if it is possible.

The other CTD one can be mounted using a sling stud and might be the better option, faster to install/remove and wouldn't bear on the barrel thereby possibly changing accuracy.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/02/12 04:03 AM

love my dm mod7 but this double cut finish apparently hangs onto moisture. always seeing new speckles on the it after I use it and set it down for a day. love the double cut finish and all but this blade is a user and is bound to see a lot of character marks over time. so rather than drag it out and constantly be concerned I decided to give it a mustard bath. have no idea how long to let it soak but should be interesting to see how it turns out.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/02/12 04:08 AM

Let it soak for several hours, daub it on with your fingertips, some spots thin and others thick. THAT will give it a splotchy finish.
Posted By: lazi

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/02/12 04:16 AM

I actually decided to see what happens in watered down mustard after I saw how splotchy it was getting.

so far been doing it for around 20 minutes. in and out to make sure it's not rustying in there. I love the dc finish but it unless I want to constantly baby the it it was going to change constantly anyways. if I could keep the silky dc look I would but now in hoping for something fairly even but with a little.

Randy after messing with the Ruger this weekend i think it would be hard to beat, but then again i have no experience with the Marlin. and i do plan on picking up one of the Rugers in the near future .Randy i got lucky the mags and the batteries were at cost, the pants came with a belt cheaper than i could have gotten them off the net, and the ammo was about 11$ a box including tax, i did spend more than i wanted to but it was things i needed to pick up and i saved over 50 $ or so buy getting them this weekend.

I'm liking the 10/22 take down. pretty sure there will be some more portable stocks avaiable for it down the lime as well. should make for a sleek pack with way more options than the papoose.

I know I want one.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/02/12 05:15 AM

Marshall, do you see any issues with the coupling actually using the front sight for retention. There could be a lot of shock transferred to it through the coupling/suppressor.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/02/12 05:16 AM

It is really a nice looking package and there are already tons of accessories for the Ruger, and will be even more coming out for the TD.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/02/12 05:16 AM

Also, is the barrel (specifically the front sight post portion) of the 10/22 TD identical to the standard 10/22 barrel? It has to be for those couplings to fit properly.

Yeah, I have the same thoughts. I haven't priced getting the barrel threaded here. I found a few online, but I am not sending the barrel off, so that is not an option. I know there is one guy at least in town who threads barrels. And the smith at impactguns may do it as well. He is a good guy, and may hook me up with a deal.

you guys seen the 10/22 barrel with the shroud for the suppressor? basically a short barrel with a welded on shroud to make it 16". the shroud covers the suppressor so no added length when you have it on. makes it a one stamp item.

I was going to use one of my scopes, but none are designed for 22. Not much difference except the paralax is set to 50 yards. At least I think that is the only difference. I am going with the Vortex because their warranty is simple. If it breaks, they fix or replace it.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/03/12 12:21 AM

That beeman scope is the one I used to have on my Skunk Killer several years ago. It's been on my Ar now for about the last 17 years. It is of course rated for a pellet rifle and full auto firearms so a 22 should be a piece of cake.

I bought one from kniveplus that they make, I guess they come pre loaded and are supposed to last for a long time. I just sharpen on the sharpmaker. I would like to learn free hand soon. Its just investing the stones and stuff.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/03/12 02:37 AM

When you are sharpening freehand, at least at first, find the angle YOU like. Keep your wrist locked. What you can do is mark the part you have sharp with a black magic marker. Vary the angle until you can remove all the black. That will be what you are looking for. After you have sharpened that way long enough, you can tell by the sound it makes and the feel as it slides across the sharpener if you have it right or not.

Thanks Randy. I have a decent idea of the stones I want ect. I have a bad time with wire edges on the sharpmaker. I started using a old leather belt to try stropping. I noticed a good improvement to my edges, so, I decided it was time for a strop.

Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/03/12 02:51 AM

Strops are a good idea. I carry a piece of leather about 5x10 in my "Kit".

When I sharpen I start out with a Smith's coarse diamond hone (if the edge more than just a light touch up). When I get it to where I want it (I USUALLY don't go all the way to a wire edge) I switch to a coarse Spyderco Medium ceramic hone. If I am working on a blade of 7 inches or more this is usually where I stop. On small blades (and If I want a more refined edge on the larger blades) I go on to a DMT diafold (1x4 inch folding diamond hone) and finish off the edge to where I want it and then I will usually finish up stopping it on the leather for 20-50 licks a side.

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. Reports Strong First Quarter Bookings

March 21, 2012

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR), announced today that for the first quarter 2012, the Company has received orders for more than one million units. Therefore, the Company has temporarily suspended the acceptance of new orders.

Chief Executive Officer Michael O. Fifer made the following comments:

The Company's Retailer Programs that were offered from January 1, 2012 through February 29, 2012 were very successful and generated significant orders from retailers to independent wholesale distributors for Ruger firearms.

Year-to-date, the independent wholesale distributors placed orders with the Company for more than one million Ruger firearms.

Despite the Company's continuing successful efforts to increase production rates, the incoming order rate exceeds our capacity to rapidly fulfill these orders. Consequently, the Company has temporarily suspended the acceptance of new orders.

The Company expects to resume the normal acceptance of orders by the end of May 2012.

Hey JJ, let us know if the bag has any padding between the two halfs. I mean between the pouch where the stock and receiver goes and the side where the barrel and forend goes. Looks like if there isn't any padding the pieces could bang together, not a good thing for a scoped receiver.

Check out the last part of this press release. It is good to have stock in Ruger <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. Reports Strong First Quarter Bookings

March 21, 2012

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR), announced today that for the first quarter 2012, the Company has received orders for more than one million units. Therefore, the Company has temporarily suspended the acceptance of new orders.

Chief Executive Officer Michael O. Fifer made the following comments:

The Company's Retailer Programs that were offered from January 1, 2012 through February 29, 2012 were very successful and generated significant orders from retailers to independent wholesale distributors for Ruger firearms.

Year-to-date, the independent wholesale distributors placed orders with the Company for more than one million Ruger firearms.

Despite the Company's continuing successful efforts to increase production rates, the incoming order rate exceeds our capacity to rapidly fulfill these orders. Consequently, the Company has temporarily suspended the acceptance of new orders.

The Company expects to resume the normal acceptance of orders by the end of May 2012.

I am not generally a fan of Ruger firearms, but I am very happy to see an American firearms company doing well (sigh wishing for a Canadian one).
However Ruger has been active in fighting for firearms owners rights and promoting the hunting sports.
If I buy a new rifle in the next year, Ruger will be on the top of list due in part to their support of firearms owners (I know that Bill Ruger had issues with civilian ownership, but he is gone)

My only problem is I cant get the last 1/8th inch of my 311 as sharp as I would like. Maybe I just have OCD about it though haha <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />.

Just make sure you change the blade angle to keep the full thickness of the tip area in contact with the stone. You MIGHT have to raise the handle up to get the angle to stay the same. If you don't you will eventually wind up with a "Sharpened" area that is wider at the tip than the rest of the edge. (Try the magic marker along the edge trick to see what I mean)

Now how in the world did I modify steeley's post? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> Must be one of those Mod special powers I now have. I'm sorry Steeley, I didn't mean to do it.

Just heading out to dinner with my wife, married 24 years today.
My nephew has had no problem with his magazine, however he wants to buy a five round mag for when he is hunting.
He finds the ten round mag to be a little uncomfortable when hiking with the rifle.
He is after his other uncle and I to go bear hunting with him.

I guess the suppressor will have to wait, if it happens at all. Maybe I can trade in my present 1022 and get some knocked off the price.

My 22/45 in it's nylon zipper case fits into the exterior pouch. There is still plenty of room in the other exterior pouch for ammo and mags for both weapons. Plus, there is still that interior pouch on the barrel assembly side. I will probably put a telescopic shooting stick in there.

Posted By: lazi

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/03/12 07:01 AM

think the buffer keeps the hold open from working. watch a few vids and it seems easy enough to just hold the bolt open to disassemble. factory hold open is sonny anyways but I still use it when I'm not intending to fire the rifle. i started the auto release mod but didn't dremel out enough material on mines.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/03/12 11:38 PM

Ok, I have talked a lot about the "Negrito hunting bolo" I bought while stationed in the Philippines in '75 or '76, the expensive one, $2.50! Well here it is. Pics are not the best but best I can figure out how to do.

[Linked Image from farm8.staticflickr.com]

Over all it's about 14 1/2 inches long with a 9 1/2 inch blade. I made the choil myself with a dremel tool. Not to hard as this is a leaf spring from some junked vehicle, probably from the base land fill. the Brass for the guard and butt cap I was told was from melted down 20MM brass shell casings and the aluminum spacers probably from scavenged aircraft "Skin" The handle is leather washers made from water buffalo hide. I wrapped it partly in a material I bought over 25 years ago called "A grip". It's a tape that Basically feels like moleskin but was made to wrap around handgun grips.

Here's another picture that more accurately shows the look of the steel after all these years in dust, dirt, grime, heat and humidity and just generally left laying around and only wiped off with a cloth and a scotch brite pad once in a while. Oh the sheath I had made by a shoe shop in Lubbock Texas around 1978.

[Linked Image from farm8.staticflickr.com]

Before I got into more expensive knives it was my primary chopper and didn't to very well at that, WAY to soft. But it sharpened up easily so it wasn't all that bad I guess.

I then got another 9 1/2 inch blade that was a really nice chopper. Used that for about 22 years until I got into Dan's blades. Best decision I ever made. Even my Milreg and Bulldog reg will chop circles around either of the other blades. And when I had the Dogfather, well nothing else needs to be said. I'll miss the DF, at least until I get my 911. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Actually it's not really all that heavy. It's probably close to 1/4 inch thick but tapers toward the tip. Also the tang is nothing more than a bolt welded to the blade and shoved through the handle an peened over the brass butt cap.

It sharpens up real easy. When I first got it, and before I rotated back to the states every time it got dull I just wet down the top of our concrete wall and went to work. Took a little while, but it worked. I finally after about three months got a whet stone and things went a lot better. Like I said, it's temper is what ever they did when they made the leaf spring it was made out of. All the work to make the knife was done by hand by the indigenous natives of the Philippines, the Negritos.

Just took the front part of the stock (or I guess front hand guard in this case) off to have a look. Should be pretty simple to drill a hole and fix a swivel stud to it with a bolt and lock washer. There is plenty of room in there. It is hollow.

I found one with a nut. i think if I don't actually screw it into the polymer (where it bites into the plastic), instead just make a hole the screw fits through and then fix it on with the nut ...

They make them that have an insert that goes through the stock (think chicago screw) and then the stud goes into the threaded insert then the bipod goes on that usually without an adapter.

They make them that have an insert that goes through the stock (think chicago screw) and then the stud goes into the threaded insert then the bipod goes on that usually without an adapter.

That sounds better than a nut.

Cool! I'm anxious to hear if it holds zero like it should.

Are you talking about after takedown and reassembly?

I can tell that it does so far. I have put 300+ rounds through it after zeroing the scope and it has been broken down at least twenty times during and returns to zero every time.

Yeah, that's what I was wondering about. Seems like it would be a weak link, but maybe Ruger's got that figured out.

Did you look at the pics of the adjustable attachment point? It doesn't wiggle one bit no matter how hard you torque on it. The iron sights aren't an issue either as they are all on the barrel assembly.

Monkey Bomb has guided me well. I found the best looking option. The adapter rail I first found was going to need another adapter to get a stud on the pictanny rails. This is the ticket right here.

The lower portion is what i am talking about. I thought they made one that has a flare on the inside portion of the forearm. I could be mistaken on that though.

This is what I was thinking of. But I can't find a flared/shouldered model. I must have been mistaken.

I think the last pic I posted would be sturdier since it has a bigger contact area to spread any stress out. The ones you just posted are about $7 for two though and the one I posted is $11 for one.

I never have figured out my 10/22 issues. Extractor is fine, so I'm thinking I need to brush out the chamber next. Everything is lubed and cleaned, so I don't think the chamber should be dirty enough to cause it to stick, but for some reason the empty rounds aren't ejecting right.

I usually use Rem oil, never had a problem. All my other guns run fine, but this one is getting on my nerves. Cost me several squirrels this season, after it failed to extract and I didn't catch it.

Check out filthy 14. Its an AR that they ran for 49 thousand rounds without cleaning and using only slip 2000. It was done by Pat Rodgers at EAG Tactical.

Its thicker, stays in place much better and is still nice and slick.

I'm gonna find me a bolt action for next year and trick out my 10/22. I've been thinking about it for a while. I've got a .17 HMR bolt gun that's just too much for our squirrels, but if I take headshots and shoot solid bullets it may be ok.

He's not that kind of person. It is a long history with him. He blames the teachers in school for his inability to get good grades. His habit of skipping class, staying up drinking all night and sleeping in class, refusal to do the class work or homework had nothing to do with it, just the teachers that wouldn't take the extra time with him. He's been this way all his life. When he came back he told Patty and Me that he was gonna show "The town" that he was not the useless punk kid THEY thought he was.

the 10/22 td is attractive but I think I should save that for the impulse buy excuse list. it almost a no brainer. think im going to try a new stock on the 10/22 I have and maybe stick a cheap red dot on it and replace the hammer. that should help me stall out until the pockets can handle something more.

I have a Sig P225 single stack 9mm that I really like. Not exactly small, but about medium size maybe. I also have a Beretta tomcat .32acp it's small. I also have a Walther PPK .380 and a PP .32acp that I would consider not to big. I guess the beretta, and the two Walthers I would consider small, but I still like the Sig 225.

I like plenty of smaller pistols. A subcompact in Smith and Wesson, Glock, Springfield are all good pistols. A 380 in Sig, Ruger, Keltec and a miriad of others are good pistols.

I have a G-27 and a Ruger LCP that see a lot of carry.

I guess I may need to give the .380 options a chance... I held this iver johnson pony a week or so ago and it has lead me to believe that I may find a small semi auto pistol I actually can feel comfortable with.

the little sig 380 may be an option but everything I've seen in 9mm just feels like I dont need to be shooting it.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/05/12 11:30 AM

Their (Diamondback) website says DO NOT use bullets higher than 124g or any specified as NATO or +p or +p+. Voids the warranty. I guess in a 9mm pistol with 6+1 rounds 11 ounces ain't bad!

That's probably gonna be a bust. Red Dawn was one of those movies that should never be remade.

Dogs, unfortunately is that the system we have to work with. Hunting rifles have a whole different applicable law then sidearms.

Every five years we have to do a competency certificate that evaluates whether one understands the applicable law and is "stable" enough to own a sidearm. A lot of red tape to go through. I was VERY surprised to get the call today because....I kind of forgot about it after three years.

The land nav instructor at sergeants course turn me on to it. He printed a base map of route and then a topo map on a clear plastic sheet for an overlay and had a separate satellite image map. Pretty freakin convenient and a cheap option to buying maps. The one I have made so far are better than the ones that came in my Utah almanac type book of maps for the area. .

I going to print a base map of routes and terrain features in color as well as a satellite map at the same scale and use the topo overlay on both. The basic base map help reveal stuff hidden by the trees and such. Not sure I'll use it too much, but I figure I will practice my land nav skills this weekend.

No, we didn't have any special thing at church. And yes, she will be at church Sunday, but it's probably not going to be good.

Our pastor went off the deep end again for the last two Sundays, verbally assaulting an 80 year old woman during Sunday service from the pulpit and in front of 6 visitors. He tried to insult me, but his words didn't bother me, but when he started messing with Patty, calling her a liar and saying some other things, I kind of lost it. I jumped up, shook my finger at him and told him a few things. He told me I couldn't talk to him that way and I told him I would say anything to him I wanted. I wasn't a good person, belief wise. LONG story short, AT least 10 of 13 voting members want him gone for his attitude/past actions and we will vote on it on the 15th. 1/4 of the members vote against him, and he's gone.

NONE of us truly want it, but we will not put up with his dictatorial attitude and well, we are just tired of the way he treats the members.

Well, onto something more enjoyable. I worked on my BG Parang and 311 last night here at work. Internet was down all night until about 30 minutes before I got off so I had to have something to do. I'm pretty satisfied. I might go ahead and hit the 311 on the fine hone, just for grins and giggles though.

Randy
Religious people are simply those that try their best to live their life as best they can according to their beliefs.
I have never read of or heard about a religious tenant that states "thou shalt be perfect"
We have talked before about this pastor, and I am not surprised that this unfortunate situation has developed.
I TRULY hope that your Easter Service goes well and that your congregation moves forward and becomes stronger for this.
I believe that I know the type of person you are and I am confident that when you looked inside for an answer, it is the right answer you heard

I was looking at a Fiskars billhook, but moved on when I saw $40 price tag.
Haven't used a billhook since I was a kid, and was going too try it out on some blackberries.
My old machete will just have to do

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/07/12 11:44 AM

Patty and I were asked by the membership (well 9 of them anyway) to do something. We at first requested to go to a part time pastorate, meaning he would only get paid $300.00 each week and be allowed to work outside the church. THAT was the first Sunday (this time) that he threw a fit and stated he WOULD NOT do that and it would not happen as long as he was there. All this was said from behind the pulpit after delivering his sermon.

This Last time when we as stipulated in our constitution, after presenting our deacons with a letter of intent to have a called meeting and getting their determination that it was justified, presented him with the letter. He went off before and during the service time, instead of preaching.

It was NOT an easy decision and Patty and I both have been sick all week over it. Patty more than me, she has actually gotten ill over it, stomach and headaches.

Haha, I can't say the thought hasn't crossed my mind, specially the guy that raped that woman a couple weeks ago. We found out after the fact, that when our neighbor (the 80 year old teacher) daughter was doing her student teaching she caught his same guy (he's 51) masturbating in the back of the classroom in High School! AND he has been to prison Once for Rape, should have been twice the the other incident, the girl didn't press charges.

I feel for you both
No scratch that
I feel for your whole congregation.
Sometimes doing the right thing is so much more difficult that doing nothing.
Even though I am a non-believer I do have a great deal of respect for those that do believe (fanatics aside of course)
A church is built on a foundation of a strong congregation.
A pastor is a pillar that joins the foundation and church together.
It seems like your pillar is broken and needs to be repaired or replaced

Over the years Patty has bought me several Case Slip joints. They nice knives, but I have a tendency to be rough on my knives at times and have broken more than one slip joint. That is why I gravitate toward the single blade lock backs. AND I have had more than one slip joint close on my fingers or hand. Doesn't feel good.

I love rescue dogs, my oldest daughter's dog is a rescue that we got back in August, last week my youngest daughter got a rescue (I may go back for his sister)
They can be a lot of work, but they repay the work a hundred fold

Quick question: Who changed my title/rank? I have my suspicions. I LOVE IT!!! I hope y'all decide to leave it that way.

Haha, I figured it was you. Thanks for thinking of us, Randy. Maybe I'll buy a 9-11 for myself and rename it the Junk Yard DADDY Dog!

Welp, my little boy and I are off to the dealership for an oil change.

To me it means that When good people choose to be silent, in the face of something they KNOW is wrong, the wrong doing will continue until after time it will be accepted as normal.

The second part means that you DO NOT want to fight, that you hope things can be settled peacefully but that you will fight if it becomes necessary.

I checked out the 5.11 boot dagger. It´s a nice one! I was thinking about the self defence knife thread you started; I think a push dagger would be a good choise. It´s quite small, simple and hard to take off from someone.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/10/12 12:53 AM

Here is the ones that I have forged so far.

The modest looking push dagger was forged from a round 10mm steel. It was "crap steel" as the master smith said so it didnt harden alltough I tried.

The one on the top I call Pirates butter knife and it was forged from a spring steel and water hardened.

The push dagger with a raindeer horn handle was damascus forged by MBS M. Vilppola.

The V-sharpened War dog for size comparison.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/10/12 02:22 AM

Man that's frosting my butt about that stove. It's made in the UK. From storage, the top (is partly rounded, where the actual opening is smaller than the outside flange and the opening is higher than the outside. Like someone cut a ball in half and then cut the top off it again.

It has three fold out "Legs" that become the pot holder.

The OUTSIDE of the stove comes off next, and you reverse it and put it on the ground. Then the inside, the actual burn can is lifted up and expands and then fits down inside the outside portion.

In the video for it they say it is about the size of an apple.

Adam, personally, IF Dan was to put a regulator handle on the 911, I think that it would need to be with NO upper guard and maybe trimming down the lower guard just a bit. Just enough lower guard to keep your fingers from sliding onto the blade.

The Wild Woodgas Stove is very interesting. It has a bigger footprint than a bushbuddy or a bushcooker but still packs in a really compact size. The bushcooker is launching a XL-model soon.

Posted By: Anonymous

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/10/12 03:11 AM

So, I decided to test myself today.

I ran 3.1 miles to the gym with my Camelbak on loaded to about 20lbs, and then conducted 1.5 hours of circuit training. Then ran the 3.1 home. Refueled with a sandwich and got on my bicycle for a 25 mile route into the foothills of the Rockies. About 10 miles in I saw a bike shop advertising a "Spring Sale." I stopped, locked up my bike and went inside. I found some nice panniers I am researching now online. When I left the building, I realized I had left the key to the lock at home, 10 miles away! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

With my pack still on, I ran home to get the key.

Did I run back?


Hell no! The car was feeling neglected anyway. Who am I to neglect something that has carried me so far so many times in all four corners of the earth?

I am basically doing the same thing I did to the forward hand guard to the butt stock.

It will look similar to this, but the sling will attach to the wrap I already did instead of just looping around the barrel.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/10/12 04:45 AM

I had two uncooked tortillas that were getting near their expiration date. So, I mixed refried beans, a can of spinach, a packet of tuna, chopped up jalapenos and taco seasoning. I nuked it while I cooked the tortillas in a pan. Added some pepper jack. Mmmmm. I invented the best burritos ever.

I just grabbed random stuff out of the cabinet actually. Well, not random. I looked at what they had in them. Spinach = vitamins and iron. Beans = protein and fiber. Tuna = antioxidents, fatty acids and protein. OK, the jalapenos were for flavor. Cheese = more protein.

I was expecting it to taste terrible. It really was good. Could have done without the spinach, but I needed the iron since I haven't had any red meat lately.

find im having to do twice the hours in work over what I was paid for just to keep for doing two and a half times that in free work for what this guy wants. and then there's the million questions that lead down more roads that equal more work for me. and it's funny because I don't mind doing all the work but at some point I know I'm going to have mentio more money will have to be considered.

what's the handle area (and above) on a pistol frame that goes between the thumb and the index finger. it continues right above the hand protecting it from the slide.

I believe it is just called the grip. If it sticks out real far, they call it a beavertail grip.

well I'm realizing a prefer handguns with a deeper grip are between the thump web and index finger. pretty much has to be deep for me to be comfortable with a compact semi auto handgun.

waiting to see what the new s&w is going to be like but held a m&p 9c and so far it's my best option. glock and xd are out... still wanting to try the single stack .45s though. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/2weeks.gif" alt="" />

Alas, I have no bacon here at work. Just Some Sugar free apple pie and veggie tray from the head of our E911 office for national dispatchers week. But it's good, and she does this every year OUT OF HER OWN POCKET! She does it for the 911/EMS dispatchers and those of us here at the Sheriff's office. She also does it for the two cities in our county that has their own dispatch.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/12/12 02:33 PM

never can wrap my head around "sugar free" stuff. i always read sugar free as "somebody intentionally jacked this up!". id rather take the approach of eat less or just don't eat it it at all. but I sure don't want to eat some jacked up version of it. but then I eat it anyways cause I'm not just not picky...

did a lot of veggies last week. I can eat a ton of vegetables, fruit, nuts but it's just hard to keep plenty enough around.

still boggles my mind how it's cheaper to process the crap out vegetables than to just stick them on a shelf <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />. but there's beer thats cheaper than water so I guess they paid some guy much smarter than me good money to figure that one out somehow... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

Hey Todd, Well We don't know yet. We got a call from the Urologist the other day, her calcium blood level should be between 8-60 and hers is 435! And today the endocrinologist called and said it is really high and may indicate something called parathyroid (that has nothing to do with the thyroid gland). IF the para glads are messed up, a simple (so they say) 30 minute operation and the problem is fixed. And the "Problems" associated with the para problem are the majority of the complaints she has, the things that are not right. SO we are hopeful.

I do not care for the young man she is going with but the wife is driving them to prom and after prom and staying to help out with the afterprom , he has refused to meet me over the last year but he had no choice for prom unless he comes in and shakes my hand and looks me in the eye she will go by herself, my daughters girlfriends have him scared to death on meeting me. i figure taking off a 45 and 9mm and a couple of knives and what ever i pick up at the show should make my point without saying to much.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/14/12 06:15 AM

Now that he's got his license, it really worries me. But he's improved a lot over the past couple years, so I decided that I'd give him a chance. He's done well so far, other than being irresponsible with his money and not having money for gas.

A couple days on the school bus fixed that, I think.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/14/12 08:12 AM

I'm down to about 1000 rounds of 9mm, I probably should get some more soon. I'm thinking of shooting in the Glock shoot next weekend.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/14/12 08:15 AM

I am going to have to do a bulk of training with 22. Its getting to pricey to fire more than 50 rounds of regular ammo at a time lately.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/14/12 08:17 AM

Yep. I've got a pile of .22 ammo, probably 5-6 of the bulk packs from walmart. My only gripe is that they just aren't as accurate if I'm really trying to shoot groups.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/14/12 08:18 AM

I can tell very quickly the difference between Federal bulk pack and Wolf match ammo in my pistol, but unless I'm trying for small groupings I don't spend the extra money.

you guys see the new S&W M&P single stack? I actually held the M&Pc and wished I had held it when I was shopping a couple years ago. I think I would gotten one. one of the first semi auto compacts I held I think I could actually enjoy shooting. I the single stack feels pretty much the same and is slimmer I think I will pick it up and go for my ccw sometime this summer.
Posted By: lazi

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/14/12 08:31 AM

hope ammo prices don't get crazy. been needing to reup on .45 and .38 for probably over a year. always putting off since I haven't been going to the range like I used to.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/14/12 08:35 AM

Re-up now before the prices get higher. I don't see them going down until next year and then probably not. Usually they raise prices at the begining of the year. I was looking at my old invoices and it has been a steady climb over the past three years. But this latest jump was the highest I have seen lately and mid year.
Posted By: lazi

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/14/12 08:41 AM

hate to hear that... I was going to scrape up some funds to get some fishing gear and then hopefully have a little bit to snag some ammo. may just toss some extra stuff on eBay over the next few weeks.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/14/12 08:44 AM

Then again it depends on your perspect. I usually buy ammo in moderate amounts. So a few cents a round equates to a major price increase to me.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/14/12 08:47 AM

In this case it went up about a nickel a round.
Posted By: lazi

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/14/12 09:07 AM

I guess not being an regular shooter I look at the dollars more than per round or quantity. so ill usually get whatever I can get for x dollars. so i would probably try to spend couple hundred on .45 and hundred or so on .38. something like 1/2 target plinking and 1/2 on a couple different types of defensive type ammo. no particulars as to brands or makes for either just yet.

mostly just trying to have some extra ammo around for the guns I shoot the most.

Sorry I'm slow getting back to you, just finished up my FREE ribs!

Every year our E911 coordinator provides "Goodies" for all the Dispatchers that are in the county. Second night it was a veggie tray. Then homemade cookies, then single serve apple pie, and last night was BBQ ribs! First night was Monday and I didn't work so I don't know what she did. Tonight was a copy of the local paper with all our pictures and a short bio along with pen, pencil, and a E911 T-Shirt.

Carol, the coordinator made the cookies and pie herself. She also paid for the T-shirts.

In the bag tonight with my stuff in it she also included a card where she said that I am the only dispatcher that has thanked her for what she did for us AND for her work as the coordinator. That was nice of her.

The Church where my parents go bought a house that sets about 100 feet from the church about 3 years ago with the thoughts of tearing it down. Well someone said they should rent it. They did. Yesterday I helped my Dad move a refrigerator out of there (the only thing was looked even half way salvageable). Seems the renters were there one day and gone the next. Talk about a place being trashed. I wouldn't let my dog live there, let along people. It was truly THAT bad.

Anyway, I found a new molle M4 two magazine pouch that I kiped (anything left in the house will belong to the the contractor that tears it down in a couple weeks) I think that I can make use of it for something. It's in the acu pattern but hey, who cares, it was free!

If you haven't read this, I think this is possibly the best obituary that I've ever read.
Link

Michael "Flathead" Blanchard
Blanchard, Michael "Flathead"
1944 ~ 2012
A Celebration of the life of Michael "Flathead" Blanchard will be held on April 14th, 3 pm 8160 Rosemary St, Commerce City. Weary of reading obituaries noting someone's courageous battle with death, Mike wanted it known that he died as a result of being stubborn, refusing to follow doctors' orders and raising hell for more than six decades. He enjoyed booze, guns, cars and younger women until the day he died.
Mike was born July 1944 in Colorado to Clyde and Ethel Blanchard. A community activist, he is noted for saving the Dr. Justina Ford house from demolition and defending those who could not defend themselves. He was a Republican delegate, life member of the NRA, founder and President of the Dead Cats MC. He loved music.
Mike was preceded in death by Clyde and Ethel Blanchard, survived by his beloved sons Mike and Chopper, former wife Jane Transue, brother Stephen Blanchard (Susan), Uncle Don and Aunt Cynthia Blanchard(his favorite); Uncle Dill and Aunt Dot, cousins and nephews, Baba Yaga can kiss his butt. So many of his childhood friends that weren't killed in Vietnam went on to become criminals, prostitutes and/or Democrats. He asks that you stop by and re-tell the stories he can no longer tell. As the Celebration will contain Adult material we respectfully ask that no children under 18 attend.

Oh man, the fun factor is unbelievable. They are just so much fun to play with, PLUS you wouldn't believe how they cut.

The Karambits are a wicked looking blade. But they are actually pretty functional. A couple years ago we picked a lot of sweet corn and I used the Ringer 2 knife to cut the ears off the stalks and it really worked well.

On a similar note to Lazi's post ...

I got a response from my senator today. I wrote to him a few days ago voicing my opinion on the Nation Right to Carry Reciprocity Act, which would allow CCW permit holders in one state to cross state lines into another state that allows CCW permits to do so without fear of being arrested for practicing their Second Amendment. Being a person who regularly travels across states lines, this is important to me. And, it is a breath of fresh air to hear that my home state representative is spear heading this movement in the Senate.

Here's his reply:

"Dear Mr. Peace,

Thank you for contacting me in support of the National Right to Carry Reciprocity Act. I appreciate hearing from you on this important issue.

Like y ou, I believe one of our most fundamental constitutional rights is the right to keep and bear arms. That is why I introduced the Respecting States ' Rights and Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act . This bill would return power to individual s and to states by allowing law- abiding Americans to carry concealed firearms across state lines in accordance with local laws. This bill would not force states to change their laws and does not force individuals to go through another permitting process.

An individual's constitutional right to defend himself or herself should not arbitrarily stop at the state line. Rest assured that I will continue to work diligen tly to protect the Second Amendment rights of law- abiding Americans.

Again, thank you for sharing your thoughts on this important issue. Please do not hesitate to contact me in the future about other issues important to you."

Cool JJ. I know that Missouri has that feature in our CCW law. IF the state of issuance recognizes Missouri's CCW in their state, then Missouri will recognize theirs.

A lot of states have reciprocity laws for CCW, but if this new act passes, it will force all states with CCW permits to recognize permits just like all states recognize our drivers licenses.

It is only an active issue for me personally when I travel to California and Nevada as they are the only states that don't recognize my permit and are states I frequent. Utah's permit is only equaled by Florida's as both are good in about 37 states. But, I believe it should be nationalized like a driving permit.

totally agree... just like driving, you arent going to do anything differently so why waste the effort trying to differentiate.

read those car carry laws and it a gazzillion different ways to interpret half that stuff. keep it simple and use a permit as the guideline across the board.

I suggest writing to your senator while the National Right-to-Carry Reciprocity Act of 2012 is in the senate. It has passed the House and should pass the senate ... fingers crossed. I believe permits should involve a stringent review process, but once that happens, we should be able to carry in any state in the union.

That sounds like a good plan to me lazi. Don't really know what we are going to do today, if anything. Patty said she needs to take a water pill today, she is swelling up pretty bad. The fluid can't move out the way it should because of the 3 DVT's she has in one leg and the bad kidneys. Her bad leg swells so much that it actually stretches tight the leg of her pants, while the other leg doesn't (usually any way) swell.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/14/12 03:41 PM

Well, yesterday was a follow-up on last month's visit; confirming that my thyroid wasn't working properly....WAY low. So he prescribed some pills to correct the defficientcy. While I was there I had the nurse check my hand; my ring-finger keeps "locking up" and you can see and feel the tendon in my hand. Seems that it's not uncommon in men from 50-60 and later. So, another follow up visit next month and POSSIBLE hand surgery in the future. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/14/12 03:45 PM

Oh, that's just great news about your hand. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> But maybe they will get your thyroid all fixed up. Funny, they are saying Patty probably has what's called parathyroid, which has nothing to do with the thyroid gland. They are 4 small glands in the neck that has something to do with regulating calcium in the body. IF one or more of them gets messed up, it causes a whole slew of problems, 95 percent of the problems Patty has!
Posted By: Private Klink

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/14/12 03:50 PM

Well, the doctor said that the pills should take care of the thyroid problem; next month's visit will hopefully confirm that. As far as the hand.....time will tell.

The storms have already moved back in...sooner than expected! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> Plenty of LOUD thunder and lightning to go with it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

How hard can that be? 5 minute job? 10, tops? After competely disassembling the computer, taking all the cables and cards off the mother board, prying a piece off the back and trying to get it reassembled, my 10 minute job took three hours and got me to bed at 0200.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/15/12 01:04 PM

Back a while when we were talking about swords I mentioned my blackjack vorpal. I need to get rid of that thing and get me a Japanese style blade of somekind. Of course I would want it to be full size. AT LEAST a 24 inch blade, 26 would be better. Oh well I've had it bought and paid for going on about 25 years.

Here's a LOT better picture of it.

[Linked Image from farm6.staticflickr.com]

A comparison picture that hopefully will give you an idea of the comparable sizes of these blades.

And here is some history.

"1200 Vorpals were blanked (of 1095). A few hundred were polished, the majority were SAND blasted. Manufactured in 1995, which is when I bought mine.

I think the early sheath is the Baldric sheath. It appears that there were only about 250 of these made. Only about 400 Vorpals were made with the bead blasted finish (which is the one I have) and only about 100 with the high polished blades. Bringing the tally to 500. The Blade on the Blackjack Vorpal Sword is 17 inches. The overall length is 24 inches and weighs approximately 27 ounces (I think).[/b]

[Linked Image from farm8.staticflickr.com]
Steel: SR-77
Hardness: 58 - 60 Rc
Handle: Cord wrapped
Thickness: Approx .190


Blade Length: 17 3/8"
Overall Length: 27.25"
Blade Width: 1.5"
Weight: 1 lb 13.2 oz. (29.2 oz)

All in all, I would rather have a Skizzy!

I checked in to the hotel in Boise just now. They overbooked and my room wasn't ready. They gave me a $20 tab at the bar while I waited. Then they came up 20 minutes later and said the room they had me in will not be ready for an hour (what the hell are they doing to it?) so they are upgrading me to a room that is available immediately. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

It is bigger than my apartment. Hilton loves me. I have two flat screens about 60 inches a piece, a kitchen/dining room with an oven/stove and a table that seats six, a living room with an uncomfortable couch and a huge bedroom with a hot tub next to the bed.

Too bad all I will be doing in it is sleeping since I am going out with the Marines tonight. Maybe I'll meet a nice Idaho girl to share the amenities with. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

If my memory is right, the AFB is about 12 or 13 miles south of the Interstate. Heck, it's JUST over 10 miles from Town. They extended the front gate quite a ways toward the town so they wouldn't have to pay everybody extra for the "Remote" location. (or so the story went 32 years ago).

Don't worry, GSA is funding my entire trip - gas, hotels and per diem.

Fedex definitely gets theirs from us. I ship about 100 lbs a week. You should see what our supply office ships. It is ridiculous. We get tons of stuff delivered to our HQ office in Salt Lake only to repack it and ship it out to the satellite offices. I got a bunch of blank stares when I asked "why don't we just have it shipped directly to the substations in the first place."

Yeah you can find a lot of food types, noodles and veggies at one of those kind of stores. Also a lot of different types of meat. I love a Philippine sausage I THINK is called tus e no (not sure how to spell it)but maybe that will give you the name. It is a sort of sweet tasting sausage. Also If you've never tried it, give Banana ketchup a try. No, NO bananas in it just what it's called. Oh also you can put a bunch of sugar in a large bowl (and historically color it with red food color) then pack it full of pork steaks/chops and let it set in the sugar for a couple days to absorb the sugar then fry it. My first wife always just used some water to fry it in. Comes out black and hard as a rock but tears real easy.

We've all at one time or another made fun of the way dogs great each other. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I wonder what they think of our cultural more's of shaking hands or nodding our heads as a way of greeting. Hey, sometimes thinking deep will give you a headache. Personally I think nodding your head is a lot more sanitary. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Hey it's 0620 and I didn't sleep good yesterday, I'm getting punchy. Besides a cup of coffee and a smile are a good way to start your day. (then again so is shaking your head and saying he just ain't right). <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Thanks for the words of encouragement. I will be VERY happy to land this new job. I'll be an IT/data manager for an office of 35...best of all is that it is located outside of the city AND has free parking. It's also next to a beautiful arboretum, full of hundreds of different varieties of trees. It will be a great place to have lunch. If I get the job (I've already been told that I have, but am waiting on HR,) I'll be moving to Nee Hampshire in the fall.

Thank You Mr. Flux! I may not have a DF now, but I will be getting a 911. PLUS it will be coming with a free Kydex sheath made by one of our own Few and Proud Warriors!

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/18/12 03:43 PM

No way! I love free Kydex!! I have been getting my Kydex from a fellow dog who just started making Kydex sheaths. I don't know if he will ever start selling them publicly, but I sure hope he does because they are fantastic. I'll post a couple pics. When he made my B4 sheath, it was like the 4th sheath he ever made, and it is one of the best I've ever owned. I still have a soft spot for Rainwalker, though. I won't say who made em, but you can probably guess. I don't want to sound like this guy's spokesman.

Who are you getting your sheath from?

Posted By: Flux

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/18/12 04:21 PM

Ha. Well the funny thing is, my collection is so small compared to most HOGs, at least the ones that post on Bladeforums. I don't know if they are all loaded, or of they have serious credit card debt. To be honest, I've probably sold more blades than I've owned. It's fun to own an NMFBM, but really not worth it IMO when the DF & B-11 are more usable and a great deal cheaper.

I think I have 23 blades from Busse & Kin. To be honest, I think that is pretty ridiculous, but some of my Hog buddies have 40-100. It's nuts.

I plan on trimming my collection down to 6 of my favorite, but I'll probably end up at 9 or 12.

Well, way I look at it is if you have enough money to pay all your bills, PLUS enough left over buy food and entertainment and other incidentals, and STILL have enough go "Splurge", why not, as long as you can still put some money back for a rainy day, and they WILL happen.
Posted By: Flux

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/18/12 04:24 PM

I have gotten really lucky (or maybe I'm just patient,) considering most of my blades were bought way after the production runs at, or even below msrp.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/18/12 04:26 PM

Yeah. I do have some money aside for a rainy day, but not enough since I have to buy a car now and may even be moving into a house in NH. That's one reason why I may be purging my collection soon.

Oh he works for the UP railroad and is an electronic Technician Inspector, a job he just tested for and got about 3 weeks ago. So far he likes it, except for the drive.

You can use it as a deodorant, It prevents bacterial growth (tai deodorant stones) It is a coagulant, an astrigent and you can use it for pickling vegetables. Plus its a cure/treatment for canker sores and hemoroids.

Now if the Muppy had the same size grip as the 311, but yes, in Mudders, it would be perfect! Hum.... wonder how much of the Muppy grip you could cut off before you got to steel? If you didn't mind any steel showing, you could even cut it off to your desired length and re drill for the rivet hole. Shame I don't have a spare Muppy, It might be interesting.

I finished a book on physics on the way to Billings "About Time." Pretty good read/listen. About 25 percent of the books I listen to are on physics. Extremely interesting subject.

So far, my favorite book on physics is "A Short History of Nearly Everything."

It is not just physics, but it is a pretty long book and goes deeply into physics and quantum physics.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/20/12 10:24 AM

I think I may have figured out the cause. Caffine withdrawals.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/20/12 10:25 AM

I got a soda a little while ago, and it's eased off quite a bit.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/20/12 10:36 AM

That could be the culprit. Back when I was drinking about a pot of coffee a night at work, same thing would happen to me sometimes.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/20/12 10:42 AM

If you want to keep away from the headaches, keeping drinking some caffeine every day, but not as much. When (IF) you feel it coming on just grab a soda. It won't be to long until you can handle it without the withdrawals being a problem.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/20/12 10:47 AM

I can't stand diet soda, so I usually just drink sugar free lemonade or water. But I was drinking regular soda for a while and quit, so I'm willing to bet that's the culprit.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/20/12 10:49 AM

I've even got some caffine pills in my bag for those nights when I'm just too tired to hold my head up. I probably should have just popped a couple of those instead of drinking a Monster energy drink.

I want to get myself an ACU camo pattern one or a Tigerstripe one. I always thought the Tigerstripe Camo pattern was the best one.

It's constant 8-10/10 nerve pain. My cousin describes it as the feeling of a branding iron on you constantly, sometimes all over your body. No joke, she was on every pain killer, enough to take down a rhino, and she was still in pain. It can happen as the result of an injury, which in her case happened at work. Luckily, that meant workmans comp covered her for a long time and then eventually settled. She now is in a program where she does treatments where they fill her with massive amounts of ketamine for days several days straight. It puts the disease into remission for a couple months at best. It is a very rare and interesting disease (and devastating of course.) If you're into learning about medicine, I would definitely recommend reading into it.

Anyways, CP is CP and it is no fun no matter what the issue is.

When a Canadian's accent slips out during a conversation, you must, by all means, point it out by asking him to say "about."

I know there are Canadian dogs in this forum and hope they can take my jest as it is meant. But, I find it satisfying to make someone else's accent the butt of a joke. Yes, those are the words of a southerner in West.

Back in '89 or '90 I bought a 125ft X 150ft lot on a lake in Tennessee, about 35 miles North of Knoxville. Paid $6000.00 for it. Sold it in '97 for $33k! Wish I had of bought the other three now. But you know what they say about hindsight.

Google sawdust toilet. It conserves water and creates awesome compost.

You flush by throwing sawdust on top. The "bucket" can be removed from the outside and dumped into a compost heap.

That is not the company that had the 16x27. That one was a true log cabin company, but a bit more expensive.

As for panel protection; no worries. Most if not all panels these day come with warranties. They have "gorilla" glass on top.

That's the way I had envisioned for my lot on the lake in Tennessee. I was going to build a house on it when I retired from the AF. But Patty and I got together, and she got sick, with NO insurance (nobody would insure her) and we (even though we weren't officially married I felt as if we were) got a $16k medical bill.... So bye bye lakeside lot. I don't regret it at all. She is worth a LOT more than land or money. And when we did finally get married, she got hooked up with Tricare and finally got a disability because of the blood clots and some other issues.

I kind of wondered about that. I know about wanting to keep something Gramps gave you, and not wanting to make the family unhappy. BUT ultimately, It's your life to live the way that you think is best FOR YOU. Tough decision, but that's just the way of life. IF you live it for someone else, usually it won't work out, UNLESS it is YOU that picked that other person to live with/for.

I just thought that the baldric rig would allow for easier on off, but I hadn't thought about the snaps on the bottom of the belt loop until just now. Could get one way snaps like on some of my holsters and mag pouches. It would be easy enough to get on and off that way, yet with TWO one way snaps secure enough I think.

Patty is too, sort of. We had to drive to a city 30 miles away. The bowling alley there said they would give us some bowling balls FOR FREE! Patty saw them on fb, you glue colored glass to them and make them sort of like gazing balls.

It's that time of the day again. Time for this puppy to hit the sack. It's been a good day, filled with good friends in the Yard, discussing whatever came to mind, being serious, poking fun at one another and sharing a small part of our lives. This too is what brings us together.

peace and rest to all of you, may you experience kindness and generosity in your lives and pass the experience on to others so that their lives may also be blessed.

Talking about habitats. Where can I find pictures about the nature and towns from where you live?

Oh boy, don't really know Timo, but try this for Our Favorite Place. Well that didn't really pan out. you MIGHT try searching for Mingo NWR and see what you come up with. Most of the area in this part if the state is rural farming. And there is also some timber industry, but on a MUCH smaller scale than you are familiar with.

I understand that Randy. I have been on the receiving end of a lot of generous GAWs, received a free sheath from a Dog for my Dog Father, and have been lucky enough to have some selfless proxies at a couple of shows. It certainly humbles me to see how generous some of us are. I think the generosity and brotherhood is even more apparent on this forum.

Oh Hey, I contacted Rainwalker the other day, Told him I was in need for a 10 1/2 inch sheath that would be complementary to a pumpkin handle. Basically the only requirement I have is I want dual snaps on the bottom of the belt loop for easy on easy off without taking off the belt.

Ryan, you should be able to go to "My home" at the top of this page. This will take you to another page where on the middle left of the page you should see something that says "Received private messages". Click on that and that should take you to the messages you have gotten. IF you have to many, you will have to delete some. To delete messages, when you get to the page where the messages are actually at, on the far right you will see a vertical like of boxes and at the top it is labeled Delete. Just click in each "Delete" box you want to get ride of then toward the bottom, click on "delete checked"

Thanks Skunk! So you are getting some Rainwalker plastic? I'm sure you've seen my post saluting him! Other than the sheaths I have that came with knives, the leather, and the sheaths that Barnes has been making me lately, I only buy Rainwalker. His sheaths are something else, but that's not to say that the other makers are bad.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/25/12 02:40 PM

Plastic, nope not this time, LEATHER! I agree with you about the other makers, I've just dealt with Jeff as the first maker I knew about and he's always done really good for me.

And as you said, the other makers do great work as well, otherwise Dan and Jerry wouldn't recommend them on their sites.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/25/12 03:52 PM

Yep. Agreed. You're getting leather!? From Jeff!!? You lucky Dog I mean Hog, I mean Rat! I have been waiting to order leather for my incoming TG. I should've ordered a while ago, but didn't have the extra cash. Congrats, my friend! I can't wait to see the design.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/25/12 05:46 PM

Take care! I do know about the waiting period. Jeff an I have discussed leather many times, but I keep opting for Kydex. I never meant to own as many blades as I do, which means I have what I've sworn to never have...safe queens! shocked I want to thin down my collection, but I know I'll end up with a few safe queens that I'll get some leather from Jeff done for. I can't really see myself using the TG, so I think it'll be a perfect candidate for some zombie inspired leather!

I had some leather for my DF and still have a beautiful Chuddy bear sheath for my ASH. At the end of the day, I prefer Kydex for my users.

Jeff's work is so fantastic though! I can't wait to see what we design for my TG sheath and I also can't wait for it to be made. I have been putting money aside for the day I take the plunge.

When you get your bulldog leather, I expect a ton of pictures! I bet it'll work out nicely for your new regulator as well!

A man and his wife walked into a dentist's office.

The man said to the dentist, "Doc, I'm in one heck of a hurry.

I have two buddies sitting out in my car waiting for us to go play golf, so forget about the anesthetic, I don't have time for the gums to get numb.

I just want you to pull the tooth, and be done with it!

We have a 10:00 AM tee time at the best golf course in town and it's 9:30 already...

I don't have time to wait for the anesthetic to work!'

The dentist thought to himself, "My goodness, this is surely a very brave man asking to have his tooth pulled without using anything to kill the pain."

So the dentist asks him, "Which tooth is it sir?"

The man turned to his wife and said, "Open your mouth, Honey, and show him........"

True. I still think I got a fine deal on my Springfield. Looked like it had been shot though I bought it "used." (My FFL dealer said the same thing) I think I paid $450 for mine out the door.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 01:17 AM

I saw the pics. The ACL was hanging by a thread. There were two meniscus tears (on top of the one they repaired last year). I've now got a giant titanium screw inserted in my tibia and a big old hole through my femur. Apparently, after they cut out the hamstring tendons, and drill those holes, they cut out the ACL, grind out and enlarge the tunnel it runs through, screw the new ACL into the tibia, and run a giant needle through the knee, threading the new ACL into the hole drilled through the femur, run the needle out through the quadricep and when the eye of the needle is firmly embedded in the femur hole, they snap the needle off, leaving the eye lodged in the femur. I was trying to figure out why my quad was so sore and what the giant puncture mark was on it. Now I know.

I tend to use chopers more often and I currently have these 4-6in blades.
a gerber LMF, a gerber skinning knife, three SOG fusion throwing knives that double as normal knives, a short ka-bar(my most used), a Sog mini pentogon,
and a few others. I would love to see the 911 come in color options but who knows when its said and done. I have always wanted to get a dog father but I think that I will only find a good price at a show. There is a fall showing at Knob Creek right? my dad said he would probibly go with me in the fall since there was no shoot this spring.

Blade is strictly a knife show---the biggest in the world. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> You will meet many more Dogs, Rats, and Hogs as well as the Busses and more of their crew.

Amen. I would THINK that the 9-11 would be $40 less than the Rodent 9 though--same blade, but I thought the general trend was $40 less for the Res-C grips--especially given the size and shaping of the R-9's micarta.

Really depends on the chopper. My DF is fine but I do feel like it vibrates more than the micarta in my chopweiler. My BWM feels just fine in the hand--probably my favorite so far but I haven't had the chance to do extended chopping with it yet, so I really can't say. I have a Ranger 9 with a Busse blank and micarta grips--great for chopping as well. I'm set to get a Mastiff (with a bit of luck) and then I think with the 9-11, I will be good and set for large blades. May need to get rid of one or two (Rodent 9 and/or M9--if SF45ACP let's me hammer on his Rodent 9 a bit that might help me decide what I'm keeping <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> ). With the 9-11, I'm hoping to have another big Res-C chopper to compare the DF to along with the big micartas. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Without good reviews of use from either blade, it's hard to say. ESPECIALLY since the 911 hasn't been released yet <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> That said, if they were priced the same, I'd probably go with the Rodent 9 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I have held the rodent 9 and there is nothing bad to say about it, nice and light in the hand with good control, i was tempted but passed. the 911 when it comes out will be my biggest blade from the yard and will fit in just fine i think.

Only Yard non-users at the moment are the three 11 series and a few 'vores. Haven't had a chance yet to beat up the 11s (waiting for Rainwalker leather) and the 'vores are going in some PSKs that probably won't get much use 'till the boys start working on their "Wilderness Survival" merit badges.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 07:13 AM

There does seem to be some redundancy between the R9 and the M9. If I end up with the Mastiff, I think probably at least one or two of the lot will have to go--whichever grabs be the least I suppose.

I was kidding on the Yard safe queens. Mine get beaten like a rented mule. The only other blade I have that see the same abuse is my HRLM and my RMD.
Posted By: gun dog

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 07:42 AM

my beater right now is a short ka-bar. it has not really been beaten just used to push cut and skin out animals. but I have found it is starting to bend really easily at the hilt. it has bent several times a few degrees and I have to bend it back. each time the 1095 carbon steel gets weeker. it is sad because it was my first real fixed blade knife.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 08:05 AM

My beater right now is the 7-11. I have enough quality knives now that I will pick a blade for a specific purpose. But they all get used. Prior to The Yard and the Swamp, my beater was a Cold Steel SRK.

Probably an AD away from the firing lane. Hopefully it is pistol grip only not like a Beneli M-4

Posted By: lazi

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 08:52 AM

just would seen you blame the person and not the gun. can't imagine similar reoccurring incidents but who knows...

so far I'm 2 for 2 on this ranges ban list. no fiveseven and no pistol grip shotguns. don't even plan to keep the pg on my 500 but I'm done going to that particular range anyway.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 08:54 AM

I have not used the M-4. The Super 90 rocks though. Thats the m-4's granddaddy.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 08:56 AM

As for a regular pistol grip only gun. If I owned an indoor range i wouldn't allow them. To much liabilty. No way to really aim one. They are a CQB kinda thing only.
Posted By: gun dog

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 08:58 AM

ah. whats up with the range stuff lazi? why no fiveseven? pistol grip only or a stock with a pistol grip.
Posted By: lazi

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 09:06 AM

was told 5.7 ammo can tear up the backstop. theres some pics from 5.7 on steel that was also shot by other pistol ammo and your could see some dimples the 5.7 left.

guess I since I can't imagine what somebody could've done extraordinarily wrong with a pg shotgun the choice doesn't quite make sense. and I'm assuming is pg only and not stocks with a pg. and the sign says don't even bring them in the building...

and the gun bans arent the main reason im not going to this range anymore though. just hoping I'll find a better range.
Posted By: gun dog

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 09:09 AM

do you use the 5.7 rounds loaded with hornady V-MAX? the V-MAX is made to fragment rapidly upon impact. it was made as a light skinned varmit round.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 09:11 AM

There are plenty of ranges that have stupid rules. One here claims no one can safely draw and fire from a holster. I told them to pound sand. I have been doing it professionally for 20 years.
Posted By: gun dog

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 09:14 AM

I youwant to practice defending yourself drawing and fireing drills are a must.
Posted By: lazi

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 09:17 AM

I use both the v-max and the lead free hollow points when I shoot. have found a preference to either just yet.

its been a minute but I think in those pics with the dimples you could see blue residue in the center of the dimples from tips. wasn't .223 craters but there was a sign something moved the steel. so I don't blame the range for banning 5.7. but that cut my trigger time with the fsn down to zilch.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 09:22 AM

last time I was buy it was $24-$25 per box of 50 out the door. seen 197 for as low as $18/box but never ordered any. seen it as high as $28 as well.

can't recall off top but I think I have around 600 rounds left and haven't even shot it on probably 2 years now. hoping to find a new range and change that in the next month or so.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 09:37 AM

don't have a good one for the fsn. bought some generic synthetic holster that fits fine but I was to ever actually carry the fsn for any reason I'd have to look for something better.

fnp45 came with a blade tech that I like. and my 442 usually fits in my 5th pockets all the way to the back of the cylinder so I keep putting off getting a pocket holster for that one.

man where to even start with glock stuff...

think I would actually just go with the setup jj picked. simple clip with a trigger guard holster.

see guys with massive rigs that they shove down there pants and just can see doing that everyday. also can't see open carry for any reason so I would only buy a holster like that for guns I plan to keep stowed away.

If you're talking about a B10 sheath for the 911, MAYBE, but then again the b10 has the talon hole and the blade profile may be just enough different. Oh BTW, Jeff said the Bulldog Sheath will also fit the Regulator. Best of Both worlds!

there is some of that but mostly they are not taking the time to teach the students. I am in a math class that isnt hard math I just did it for review but the teacher said she would fail 60% of the students. but she is teaching the book so fast that we are going to be done with the book two weeks early. maybe she should SLOW DOWN and teach it to the other students. I am helping the guy that sits next to me and I can hardly keep up with the problems that she is doing and I know how to do them. I feel sorry for the other students. somebody asked her to slow down the other day and she mocked them.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 03:00 PM

As much as I have come to love Jeff's work, all of my recent Kydex has come from a HOG friend. He just starting bending and is really good, plus it's a good deal cheaper than any of the other makers and I could use the extra money!

I agree that it's the details that make the difference, and the fact that Jeff will make your sheath exactly to your specs!
Posted By: gun dog

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 03:05 PM

Yeah it is great. But I do wish I could find the perfect sheath at a cheaper price. but you get what you pay for. and you almost never have to send the knife to jeff since he already has alot of the models in the shop to use are guides.
I have a hard time with the thought of just getting the expensive knife and then shipping to someone for a couple weeks or months while they do the work.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 03:09 PM

There are more Kydex benders than Leather Masters. I am NOT saying bending Kydex and getting a really nice product is easy, just easier than carving and gluing/sewing leather. Also Kydex usually has a faster turn around time. IF they have the blade you want a knife for, a Kydex sheath can be made a lot faster (at least I think most of the time) than a leather one can. I have both, and believe that there is a place for both types. IF you want to just toss a blade your vehicle and forget about it, or your pack, or whatever, Kydex is probably the best option. It won't draw moisture nor will it rot or dry out like leather will. Also If you are going into a wet environment Kydex will probably be better.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 03:37 PM

Haha I feel like a giant orange, the problem is the wind chill on site. We work between two buildings and a air vent so there is a downdraft as well. That and when one is not active, then it becomes cold. With the suite one can work close to freezing or under that because it reflects body heat back onto you. Or at least that is the way I was told it works.

I can still wear other clothes underneath it. Like a thermal flees/fleece (spelling?) etc. if I get really cold.

But, I do get cold....fast, much faster then my fellow workers.

I took a thermostat with me and it said it was around 8 degrees Celsius (around 11pm) and that night it went under dew point so one could see your breath, estimate was about 4 degrees Celsius, but inside the suit it was a nice 22 degrees Celsius. Sorry, to lazy to do the math to Fahrenheit now.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 04:26 PM

must items for cold work outside that one should be able to buy online. wool blend socks, under armour coldgear(really does work better than the off brands), insulated/Gore-tex gloves, Most important of all is the boots. I found as long as my feet were warm the rest of my body was fine, I normaly get cold temp boots with 600 to 800gram thinsulate. and Gore-Tex. full leather boots are also warmer. If he gets boots a 1/2 size bigger than normal it makes a perfect fit with thick wool winter socks. also steel toe boots are much colder than normal boots. learn how to layer. base layer like UA cold gear is awesome, then fleece is a great second layer, the third should block wind and water and then trap and reflect heat back towards the person wearing the coat.

Gun Dog, it is certainly intimidating to figure out what you want from Busse & Kin. Sometimes you think you will love a knife and it ends up not being what you expected, or not feeling right. On the other hand, you may end up loving a knife that you didn't think you would.

In my case, I always wanted an NMFBM. When I got one, I realized that I much prefer Res-C on 10-11 inch blades.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/27/12 06:34 PM

your post timing is funny because I was just walking around with my MOD7 thinking about how I passed on it time after time. finally got it and I can't stop handling it. didn't think I would like it more that my muk or ss4 but it feels right and is aesthetically pleasing at the same time. and the double cut sr77 has a patina from mustard that keeps me starring at it in the sun. this blade has more character after 2 months than any of my other blades and despite not having infi steel and whatever else my MOD7 owns all the others right. the MOD7 for me is kind of like the epitome of what I think scrapyard knives and the yard is all about with just a touch of custom appeal. never saw that coming when I decided to go for it..

I know that feeling. My LEs are gone. There's a few unused blades. I'm waiting to see what a couple others are coming out and then I'll be deep six-ing the ones I know I won't use and keeping those that I will. I've already decided the regular Regulator ain't for me--I've owned probably 10 different ones--Regulators, Deregulators, Test Team Regulators, even an LE Regulator (thanks to a fellow Dog), but in the end, I just couldn't get used to the blade shape. The 6" or the Bulldog are a different breed though.

There is woods, metals, plastics, and various other discombobubles all around you. I know you can sense them. And we can sense that your chop-fu is only rivaled by your slice-dice-fu. You must decide to be the way of the Dragon Pawd Dog in order to see the grail and release you inner fur.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/28/12 08:19 AM

So, MB, sell me on the virtues of the M9. In my limited experience, the main reason to have a really big knife is either 1) to fight with or 2) to chop, baton, and do big woods tasks. That notch on the back seems like it negates a lot of the utility of purpose 2. I suppose as a fighter, it makes a good point, so to speak.

Posted By: DogTired

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/28/12 08:24 AM

I've got several big knives. The M9 seems like it would be the least at home doing big wood chores. I've got an old Ranger 9 based on a busse blank. It seems like it would make a great fighter--more evenly balanced than, say, the DF--but still works great at chopping, batoning, and camp chores, which is what I do mostly with it. my DF, and BWM feel like great dedicated choppers. My Rodent 9 feels sort of--interesting. Can't tell if it will be a good overall blade or not. That handle is a little different.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/28/12 08:24 AM

I dont think of the M-9 as a fighter though I guess it could be. Its more of a utility blade. But I haven't used mine yet. It needs sharpening in a bad way and without a usable edge I never made a sheath for it. I need to drive it up to a small town just a bit west of me and have a guy put a nice edge on it.

I am getting a 9-11 to abuse.

But then, it wouldn't be an "M" series blade <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> M6 and HRLM both have that design.

To me, it works well on smaller blades, but above the 6, it seems an odder fit.

I'm thinking of thinning out my collection for that very reason. I've got a DDF that's never been used, a SOD and a Dumpster Mutt that have never been used, and I hate to have that money just sitting there if I'm not using it. I like collecting things, but my tastes are changing a little.

My doctor said to try Melatonin. I take 3 5mg pills (rapid release) about 15 minutes before bed time. Has actually helped a lot. They're OTC at Wally world.

Man, EVERYBODY (even the troopers) were due off at 0130 and I've got two troopers here now. One had to take a guy to the ER for blood draw (4th dwi) and the other was involved in a pursuit that started in the county just east of us and went through over half our county East to West.

Nikons are good cameras, but they are not better or worse. Both brand have their strong points. Canon tends to be more durable, so the Marine Corps has a contract with them. They even make digital camo lenses and bodies just for us.

I've had bad experiences with the multipliers. I never order them through our supply office. A lot of other Marine photogs love them since they are light and save you from carrying extra lens around though.

Panasonic has announced the DMC-TS4 (FT4 outside North America), the latest in its rugged series of compact cameras. The TS4 gains an altimeter, compass and barometer in addition to the GPS that appeared in the TS3. The camera comes with a DVD of maps that can be loaded onto the camera, helping the camera add better location data to its pictures' EXIF. Beyond this it's a pretty familiar affair, with a 12MP CCD capable of 1080p video housed in Panasonic's familiar industrial-looking tough-camera body and a 4.6x 28-128mm equivalent zoom.


is that a camera or a sunnto watch? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Yep! My D2h is worth about $400 now, give or take. But it was a beast and carried me through 5 years of working in the newspaper business.

I've got a couple f2.8 lenses and a couple f4.0 lenses that will serve me for many more years. But it's probably overkill for me now that I'm not shooting for a living.

Serious photogs have more invested in their glass than the body, especially in the digital age where a new model comes out every other month. Keep the glass, upgrade the body.

Camera bodies are almost disposable now, which pains me to say considering what I have in the two I own.

I probably won't buy another for a long while though, since it's only a hobby now.

Wide angles tend to show depth better than long lenses, which "compress" images.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/29/12 07:59 AM

Here's a good example (not my pic). You can see how wide angle from close up distorts, but shows depth. And, long lenses from distance compresses, but is much more flattering for portraits.

It is waterproof to 33', shockproof to 6' and freezeproof too. Add all that to the sensors (read back up GPS and such), and it seems like a camera I need.

I didn't see the part about waterproof. I'd love to have a camera that I could take fishing and not worry about getting wet.

It's bittersweet they do. My billing address is my sister's house since I move all the time. It would save me money if they didn't work with us.

No it wouldn't. It would just piss my sister off for having to remail the knives once she gets them.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 04/30/12 09:36 AM

guy buys something from me, gets it and says i described it wrong. I felt bad for maybe 30 seconds until I followed the link for "more information" in my listing and there is not only a full break down of the item but a picture of the owners manual. in that picture it clearly says the same text that this guy is saying I neglected to put in my desciption.

what really has me bummed out is if this guy had said it was a simple mistake on his part I would've given him a full refund and taken the losses just to save time and effort. but this guy is intent on blaming me and is making false statements about my intent. so I offer him a refund minus my expenses and he files a claim on me.

part of me wants get this guy gone but another part of me wants to make this guy admit he's wrong and that he tossed a rock at the wrong guerrilla.

I have to admit, the TG is not a blade that I really see myself using, but you can be sure it'll be on my belt when the zombies come.

Agreed DT. I would much prefer the Convex grind. Who needs light weight? Seriously? I'm hoping to get my hands on an original. Maybe at Blade!

These are hard use knives we are talking about. I dunno. The TG LBS will really be a testament to the benefits of INFI if it holds up incredibly well. I have a feeling I'm going to roll the edge a lot!

for maybe five years i've wanted a SOG tech bowie, but i could never bring myself to pay $120 for a taiwan made knife. it's not so much concern for quality or politics, just that i know how much it cost them to make that knife out of aus8 in taiwan and they're not passing the savings along to us.

I own the Pestilence and find it to be a quality chopper. Plus, it comes with skeleton knife at a great price. I did have to fix the edge, but I enjoy that kind of stuff.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/03/12 07:31 AM

i had a ranger assault knife, which i liked but didn't love.

i had a recon scout which i gifted immediately.

i had a buck 119 which was pleasant, but didn't get much use.

the double cut dumpster mutt's were gone as soon as they arrived.

the 5" to 8" knife never really did it for me, except the m2k and the cs long hunter. both very light, very thin, and very sharp.

3V isn't stainless, it's said to be one of those ultra tough tool steels. i honestly couldn't compare it to s30v because my UKPK never seems to dull and it's one of my main knives. I sharpen the 3v Koster all the time, just to see how sharp i can get a knife.

i never use my zt302 or buck 110 alaskan guide.

I think as long as you didn't baton with it or beat on it that it would be ok. Most any decent knife will do 90 percent of what you need a knife for. It's that last 10 percent that makes or breaks one.

YUP. I just checked my stats, I'm ahead of the ball game to get 50K by Dec31 2012. If I can just keep up an average of 39 posts a day. It's gonna be tough some days, but hopefully.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/03/12 11:49 AM

I'm really looking forward to it. I think It will be my truck knife and I can "Baby" my BWM. IF Jeff pulls out the stops on the sheath, it will be an heirloom set, definitely, specially with what Dave barnes is making for me. I told him I wanted a zipper pull (what I had on my DF and liked it). So We'll see what he comes up with.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/03/12 12:02 PM

You could do that, or have someone that is sell it for you. I now when Tonester and I swapped knives he sold the Pat Crawford folders I sent him to look at. Actually that was the plan and he said if I wanted the Chris Reeve knives we would just swap even up. Worked for me. Hopefully (I THINK he did)make some money on the deal. I know I couldn't be happier. I carry the small classic 2000 micarta inlayed one every day.

still going on. just decided to make him wait. giving him a refund doesn't benefit me and loosen money for screwing with him doesnt benefit me.

seriously would e given the guy a full refund and just ate the shipping if he was to accept that it is his error. but I'm not taking the blame and the loss on top of having the guy waste my time and effort.

She is on a fixed income and i have the run of the place to shoot or fish and the brother inlaw and i take care of the yard work.

I am glad some one else is helping you spend your money this time JJ, and you are correct the henry rifles are finely built weapons.

Everytime i go hunting with friends, we all have synthetic stocked rifles with high powered optic. I have been daydreaming all day about being the guy pulling out a wood, brass and blues steel lever action with open sight. it will pull everyone's man card.

We call it lunch, but we usually eat in the office and then go to the range or for a run. Our commander considers both official training, so we don't get any flack for our addictions.

Those tribute rifles are too fancy for me. The Big Boy is just the right amount of fancy and class in my opinion.

It's a lot of fun to shoot, first time I took it to the range, first put a bunch of .38 through it, then switched to .357, quite the figgin difference. Plus side, the .38 feels like it has no kick at all when you switch back

The guy at the guy at the range heard me talking about getting a Big Boy 44 mg. So he brought out a brand new one with a Ruger Super BlackHawk 44 mag. He said I could walk out with both for 1K ... I was in the shop for a good 30 minutes thinking about it. .

Todd I love that rifle. I put in A wild west guns trigger and ghost ring sights. Its a pleasure to shoot. I didn't like the way they mount their sights so I mounted the rear sight backwards and it works very well.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/04/12 08:50 AM

I've only got two non-scoped levers. Thinking of taking the scopes off a couple more. It's just nice being able to see things more clearly 100 yards out <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/04/12 08:58 AM

I have never had a scope on a lever gun. I think I only own 4 rifles that have scopes mounted.

The rest are iron sights or Holo sights.
Posted By: DogTired

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/04/12 09:14 AM

Well, in my defense, at least one of my levers is designed to be a 200-300 yard gun. Having a scope helps <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Although, I suppose the 45-70 was a 1000 yard gun long before they had scopes....

One of the best (or most dangerous) is the raw puffer (blow fish?) they have in Japan. To prepare it the chef has to be certified by the Government. It is Raw (but is so thin you can't tell it) and as you eat it it makes your lips and tongue start to "Tingle" or actually I guess go numb. IF they do it wrong, you're dead! It was actually very tasty and I really liked it, but It's so expensive I was only able to eat it one time, compliments of some Japanese business men.

One time when I was a kid, maybe somewhere between 9 and 11 I wanted all the Bar-B-Que I could eat. I ate 14 before I got sick. Oh and that included two grilled Pimento cheese with BBQ sauce sandwiches. THAT is good.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/04/12 04:16 PM

I can do it when I get home, but MY BWM only has one pommel hole, not two. And it's on the bottom portion of the extended tang.

Should I put the answer here or send it to your real email (I've got access to it via the Mod thing) when you registered.

Send it to my email address! That's be great! It's been a while since I've had a BWM. I dunno why I pictured it with two pommel holes. Thanks Randy! BTW, David has made your gear. It's looking good <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />.

That's the best part. It is a solid piece milled from a special brass steel alloy. Very cool. They claim the tensile strength is the same as steel.

I used to have (about '85-86) a Redhawk. That thing was a hogleg let me tell ya. The Blackhawk series are a lot better looking.

I still have my .357 single six convertible. Just seems funny to shoot 9mm through a revolver.

You know my beliefs on a lot of things. Just because I don't agree with someone Theologically doesn't mean I don't respect their views. I know that may sound kind of "HUH" but that's the best way I can explain it.

I DON'T believe we climbed down out of trees to walk on two legs, but I have no problem believing that "Mankind" has progressed from primitive man to the way we are now. No I can't explain how I can justify that outlook, just the way I am.

I have a spring clip like is on the back of some mag pouches. Just cut a piece of Kydex as wide as the sheath and maybe two inches top to bottom. I can screw the kydex to the back of the sheath If I want to and then slip the clip between that piece and the sheath so I can use the to hold the sheath on my belt if I want to.

I actually played around with putting designs into kydex. When it is hot and being pressed, I put some embossed patterns on it. Came out pretty cool and very original.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/08/12 10:22 PM

don't even know what to say....guess the facts...

case was decided in favor of the buyer! eBay's claim service is automated and found out through a bit of searching that cases go to the person who files them. and so do the appeals... and this piece of garbage took advantage of this and probably has and will continue to do so. I'm jpretty discussed right now! one of those times where it stopped being about the money and being about the right and wrong. this "____" abused a privialage and it's pretty sad to have to see the maggot getting over.

I will go out of my way to do right by others. I almost want to appeal and continue but eBay knows that it's not worth the time or money to deal with clowns like this. they automated the service to avoid paying to serve idiots just like this guy. it's time to cut my losses with this "___" and let this case be.

and the moral to this story... idiots don't mind wasting others time or money being idiots. don't get suckered in thinking it's anything but an idiot doing what idiots do...

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/08/12 10:54 PM

Ahhh, the life of a military travelin' man. I did 5 years in the Army before I got smart and moved over to the Air Force. Did 17 years in the Air Force and retired after a civilian company made me an offer I couldn’t refuse. After compiling all of my TDY orders, I figured out that I spent at least 8 solid years TDY. I used to travel so much that a lot of time I had to check the hotel room literature to help me remember where I was at.
On the good side, I got to see 49 of the States and 38 foreign countries, all on Uncle Sammies nickel. On the bad side, a lot of those foreign countries are called Third World because they can’t count to four. The abject poverty that a good portion of the world lives in is unimaginable to the typical American.

Yeah a year gives him time to think. But he should start looking into it now for a better understanding.

He's pretty much decided on the Air Force, I think. He's wanting to work on airplanes in whichever branch he ends up in.

Only thing about him is that he's lazy. He has absolutely no self starting skills. I think he'll grow out of that, but it may take something like the military to do it.

i was so busy back in '09 that it seems I missed some great folders. the bob lum spyderco tanto was rereleased and kershaw and emerson made a insane looking auto.

seems like a long time since i got a new folder. if nothing else i want to pick up a s30v blur this year... have a s60v blur now and the edge has really stayed on this bad boy.

yup, plan to see what kershaw guy has whenever I buy. the s60v was a great deal. we laughed when we saw what the blemish was. the grind was crooked but was razor sharp beyond what I could do. for a user it was perfect.


thanks, still trying to learn more tricks so practice when I can. and bet you could draw a mean stick man using software <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />.

my m2k was given the royal treatment. maintaining the factory angle, i brought both bevels in a bit on diamond stones up to 2000 grit, then 100 strops per side with green jeweler's rouge to a mirror finish.

it retains that edge fantastically and melts through hard wood.

i think the 511 is the 510 with a finger guard. stainless would be the 546.

go with that one if you wanna keep it cheap. send it to me if you don't like it out of the box, i'll fix it up like mine. you'll hate the edge on all your other knives afterward.

I have to say that they way they went was a good way to go. Doing something you love in a great place. You could do worse. It was fast and relatively painless. Natural causes.

Death happens. I guess I stopped worrying about how I will go years ago. I have had enough near misses with death that when my time comes it comes. Hopefully its a natural death. Otherwise I'm taking some with me................LOL, preferably whomever caused it.

There's NO way that I would try cycling around here, folks just aren't used to bicycles sharing the road with them and WON'T consider the fact that Bicycles have the same rights on the road as motorized vehicles.

One thing that influences in to my thoughts about my work is that the government and the counties are saving money. They have several different saving programs going on. For example I was hoping to get to work as a military police (very different than leo) but they are now closing military bases and about 1200 people are getting unemployed!

In leo departments all the cars are old and worn and there is a constant lack of people in the field and office...

I finally got all the paperwork done. Had FIVE to do, each one was 9 pages long and I had to make 4 copies of each one for a total of 180 pages! Seems like such a waste.

Oh well I got it all done, so now on to the updates!

I thought it was only a few years. I have a recommendation for your. Take a motorcycle safety course. I took took one about 10 years ago because I hadn't had a bike in about 10 years. It was a nice refresher and I got to trash their bike instead of my nice one. Best $150 bucks I could spend.

NO, but I applied several times. I always went the other way.

Philippines, Japan and Korea. Oh and a total of 6 months in Hawaii. (On vacation, not duty. Now THAT like having free reign in the candy store!

Not at all! congrats on getting your coin.

It is SR101, but so is the BR and the BR is differentially tempered. Also, I think 77 is the better chopper steel. I'm not complaining really, I am just kind of surprised because Scrap Yard always shocks me with their lower than market prices. This one is close to the price of my DF-LE.

I've got some decisions to make because I've got all the Res-C choppers and a BR/SBR coming potentially.

Anyways, don't mean to complain, just saying that I am contemplating whether to get one now and originally I wanted at least 5!

I want a Harley Fat Bob, but for now I'm making do with the V Star.

I had the first Japanese V-twin from Yamaha, the Virago 750 back in '82. That was one fine motorcycle, much more reliable than most of the Harleys were back then. My '85 Honda Shadow 1100 was a great bike, too. My '86 HD Sportster 1100 was fast, actually quicker than the Honda, but it LIVED in the shop. Even my old iron engine Sportster was more reliable. Nowadays, I can't really complain. My 2004 Road King runs fine (95" big bore kit, SE2 cams). I really like the new Street Glide, but since I'm retired, the King will have to do. But there isn't a thing wrong with a V Star. I've ridden them. I do sometimes miss my 2002 Softail Deuce. It was fast and set low and mean. Raked out chrome forks, python shotgun pipes. It was just a beautiful bike.

I'm debating riding to Blade. Probably just drive though. If I had a little more time in the saddle it may change my mind.

I wasn't sure I would like the tourer with the batwing. But I have to admit a stereo and cruise control makes the long rides pretty nice.

All I knew for sure in 2004 was I wanted a bagger. It was going to be an electra glide, heritage softail, or a road king.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/11/12 06:28 AM

It makes the miles go by quickly without fatigue. I am going to be really happy with it on my long trip this summer.

You can't beat a bagger with a fairing for comfort and carrying your stuff. I like the Road Glide, too.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/11/12 06:33 AM

I will be putting either the stock windshield or a larger one on for the trip. roughly 4,500 to 5,000 miles through ten states. That chopped job won't cut it.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/11/12 07:23 AM

Carolina style can be so many different ways here. Tomato based, vinegar based or mustard based? And that's just the meat! Slaw or no slaw, pickles, etc. Barbecue is big up here, lol.

Big here. But every time I order it with slaw, I get the old "You must not be from around here, that's Carolina style". I like the vinegar based with just a tough of hot. My kin are from TN and thats the way they ate it.

There are VERY generous people on this site. That is probably one of the top three reasons we keep coming back here. Not because they may give US something, but because the dogs here are caring giving people. The kind of people we all want to be.

Most guns used for criminal activities are probably not bought legally. So the laws hit the wrong people. Thoes who want a gun for bad deeds, will get a gun, no matter what the law says. But agreed, there should me some controll.

You are SO correct! Now if the Coneheads in government would only realize this, things could start getting better. Changing ONE bad law at a time.

In society there are three groups that will always have guns: military, police and criminals.

As for knives, the only legal knife to carry, is a knife like the Boker Cox. Under 2,8" long, and slip joint.
I have to carry my knives in a bag, until I reach the woods, before I can fix them to my belt <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />

I heard once, many years ago and don't remember where, something similar to the following.

Government disarms it's people because they know that with arms (guns and knives) the people can and eventually will remove the "Fat Cats" from office as long as they continue to NOT LISTEN to the people they are supposed to represent.

As Timo said earlier, it is just too big a mountain to climb if you want to change it. I have my vote, but that is just a drop in a very big pool of votes, who do not care about guns and knives.

At the same time our government is running numerous saving programs, they are still paying "additional pensions" to former government owned firms executives! We are talking about 100k-350k euro / year / person.

But yes, she knows her business. Think I almost drove her crazy when I ordered my 511. It was returned, because of the Danish postal service, and it was a HUGE hastle for me to find a way to get it here. A lot of e-mails and 1000$ later I got my 511 and the Basic 6.

But she was really cool about it.

Hey, Randy. How do I get an avatar up?
I have tried, but all the pics I have tried with, don't fit... Something about size or pixels...
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/11/12 03:44 PM

Well what I did was find something I like. Then I upload it to Flickr (just what I use) then I think you copy the url in the section of this site for avatars and it should come up, maybe.

Best answer for you, contact Tom or maybe even JJ and ask them how to do it. JJ actually made my avatar (made the plunger to shoot). For my avatar, I just typed in avatars, highlighted images and started looking until I found the one I liked.
Posted By: Rasmus

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/11/12 03:47 PM

I use Photo Bucket, but I guess it's the same. Posting pics is no problem, but the avatar is more tricky. If I fail again, I'll ask those guys.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/11/12 03:48 PM

Once you find the avatar you like, copy the url address. Then come back here and go to MY HOME at the top of any page and once there click on the "email, password line and on the far right you will see EDIT. Click on that and then on the next page scroll down to the bottom where you will see a section talking about avatars. Just copy the url for your avatar there and you "Hopefully" will have an avatar.

My dealer ordered two when he heard me voice interest in it. I was checking the 45lc out and mentioned it would be cooler to have a 44 Mag, so I can hunt big game. He said what you just did, no two are the same and he will order two so i can pick. I guess he is making it harder for me not to buy the thing.

I have a model 94 Winchester in .44 Mag, but the Henrys are smoother. You can't go wrong with a Henry.

But, is it $700 worth of smooth?

I have no idea. I don't even remember what the Winchester cost me. But having shot lever actions all my life, I like Henry's better than Winchester's, Marlin's, or Browning's.
Posted By: Spider-Pig

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/12/12 07:42 AM

I always heard Henrys were smooth, never handled one though.

My experience is limited to an old hand-me-down Marlin 30-30 from my dad with tons of use. I couldn't imagine anything smoother.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/12/12 07:56 AM

Smoothest .22 lever action I ever shot was an old Winchester 9422. Smooth as butter.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/12/12 07:56 AM

I've got a Marlin 30/30 that my son deer hunts with that is pretty smooth too, but it's an ancient gun that's well broke in.

Those were outstanding. Hard to find now. But they put the Marlins to shame. The Henry has a similar feel at a fair price.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/12/12 08:11 AM

I may end up with a Henry at some point. They're beautiful guns, regardless of how they handle and shoot.

Maybe, but I figure mine is more due to old age and stress. Since I don't work as an actual cop any more (just dispatch now) I only wear a hat when I'm outside doing some kind of work because I don't have as much natural protection from the Sun any more. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Actually, I don't care if all my hair falls out. It will be what it will be.

Well. I didn't know that either Timo. I ALWAYS though those four countries were all considered Scandinavia.

I know that collectively North, Central and South America are all called "The Americas".

It may be stupid, but I have thought all my adult life that it is VERY arrogant of people from the United States to just call themselves Americans. And thinking this, I also refer to myself many times as being an American.

Haha, It's been so long since I've done that (and MAYBE the reason for doing that has caused some memory loss) I can just remember bits and pieces of it. Like the one night (ok, just turning daylight) in South Korea I came down stairs from a Korean country Western Bar, walked outside and had to stop an old Korean street peddler where the base was. He pointed to my left and I looked that direction. There less than a block a way was a sign over the 4 lane road into and out of the base. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

I'm just getting ready to mail off a money order for a c note to Rainwalker. I told him he had Carte Blanche on the sheath for my BWM. It should be a show piece.

IF you feel froggy and want to take it on, I could also use a cordura sheath with pockets for that as well. The blade is 10 3/8 inches long, 3/16 inch thick (well I think Jerry says it's .188) and it is 1 7/8 inches spine to edge. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/12/12 02:23 PM

There were a lot of machines, industrial and home type made during that time period or earlier that are still going strong and will continue to do so for many more years to come.

MY only concern (just because I'm clumsy sometimes)is feeding the material with only one hand. I don't really mind stitches all that much if I need them, but the operable word is IF and they should be done by someone that is medically certified/qualified to do so.

I was in the restaurant yesterday when I suddenly realized I desperately
needed to pass gas. The music was really, really loud, so I timed my
gas with the beat of the music.

After a couple of songs, I started to feel better. I finished my coffee,
and noticed that everybody was staring at me....

Then I suddenly remembered that I was listening to my iPod.

Hi guys.

Look what I picked up today for $75.

[Linked Image from sewingonline.co.uk]

Has an upgraded fly wheel and more powerful motor. I did some learning, never used a machine for sewing before, and can sew decently well with it. I tested it on five layers of 1000 Denier Cordura and it worked like a ... errr ... sewing machine.

I've bought a bunch of 10 7.11's for me and for me and some other italian knife member forum,
some of who have bought the 7.11 and had already the DF say the 7.11 has a tendency to bounce a little wood on which the DF does not.

Fear that the longest being only 9 of 7 he has this tendency

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 11:15 AM

Fabio, look at the weight of the 911 Vs the 711. The 911 will probably not bounce off wood like the 711 has. Believe it or not, the DF will also do the same, IF you have the wrong piece of wood.

Personally I wouldn't worry about it not working very well.

Man ... a curiosity.

I have only Busse & kin blades mainly Scrap....
The Scrap ones have their line, their shape
mudders or little/great res c handle
but one is just out from the pack, not equal
you know how it started?

Not sure I understand it.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 12:04 PM

Fabio, I agree, you are doing fine. I THOUGHT you were either talking about the WarDog or the Regulator and I was leaning more toward the WarDog.

Like JJ, I don't know about Dan's reason for the WarDog, but I also am glad he made it. IT IS NICE! I also have the Busse Combat version, the WarDog HACK. THAT is a deeply hollow ground lightweight blade. I think it will make a nice fighter if you round off the rather square shaped pommel.

I rounded off the pommel on my Scrapyard Wardog and made the choil larger for my fat finger and I LIKE IT!

If I had to have only three blades, I would have a hard time picking but the list would draw from:

1. BWM
2. 911
3. Regulator
4. BullDog
I would probably choose either the BWM or the 911 though, for the BIG jobs.

The medium would be either the:
1. Wardog
2. S5
With the Wardog being the more favored

Small would be:
1. Mud Puppy LE
2. 311
This would be a VERY hard decision but would lean more toward the Muppy, because it's got my JYD # on it and I like the blade shape and the mudder grips are really nice and balance is really great for me in this size.

I said three blades, but actually there would be 4. The Cupidvore would be around my neck of course.

Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 12:13 PM

I would have to do a comparison between the BWM and 911 to see which one would get the win. IF the 911 was close in chopping ability to the BWM it would probably get the nod due to it's lighter weight.
Posted By: rugos17

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 12:17 PM

Mudders are my favorite ....
only for a little or medium blade.
I have S5, SS4 and Mud Puppy LE is the new entry.
If I can choose one of this I'd think I choose the SS4
is a middle way.
I love the S5 lenght, the SS4 shape and choil,
the Muppy point and steel.

I'll try. But is actually very simple.

The WarDog has not exactly square corners on the butt end of the handle, but sort of. All I did was use a belt sander to make the end of the handle rounded like a ball.

The choil is the same shape, I only made it long enough to fit my finger without touching the sharpened edge.

Someone (I can't remember who) rounded the Butt of theirs and I just did the same thing. But I then made the choil large enough to fit my fat finger.

I have the S5, WarDog and the Muppy. I can't actually explain why but the mudder grips on the S5 just does not feel balanced the way I like, that is why I think I favor the Wardog. Yet I also like the overall blade shape and size over the S5.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 12:22 PM


Two men were walking through the woods and found this real deep hole. One man picked up a rock and tossed it into the hole and listened for the rock to hit bottom. Nothing.

He turned to the other guy and said, “That must be a deep hole … let’s throw a bigger rock in there and listen for it to hit bottom.” They found a bigger rock and both picked it up and dropped it in. They listened for some time and … nothing.

Again, they agreed that this must be one deep hole and maybe they should throw something even bigger into it. One man spotted a big log nearby. They picked it up, grunting and groaning, and threw it to the hole, listened intently … nothing.

All of a sudden, a goat came flying out of the woods, running like crazy, blew past the men and jumped into the hole. The men were astounded.

They walked on through the woods, and a little later met an old farmer who asked the men if they had seen a goat. One man told the farmer of the incredible incident they had just witnessed … they had just seen this goat fly out of the woods, and run and leap into the big hole. He asked the farmer if this could have been his goat.

The old farmer said “Naw, that can’t be my goat … he was chained to a big log.”

I agree with you about the cost. I was able to buy the Busse Combat at last years Blade thanks To Tom. Otherwise I would never own one. And the BWM, well you know the story of how I got that. Otherwise it would be way out of my price range.

Yeah I like Dan't blades as well. To me they just seem more like actually using blades whereas the other two, especially Busse combat are collector pieces. Just my personal thoughts.

The Steel ONLY. I made the choil longer toward the point, not toward the handle. I ONLY sanded the butt end of the handle to make it a little round, but not to much. Go slow and easy. The handle material sands really nice and smooth.

Oh and for making the choil bigger, I just used a round file and sandpaper.

I was surprised how easy the INFI steel is to work. I changed the Convex edge on mine to a conventional V grind, just easier for me to maintain. It is surprising how easy it is to sharpen yet it holds the edge very well.

Which gun you use?

I like a 45acp. I have 3. Colt 1911A1 full size, Sig P220, and a Springfield Armory V10 Ultra compact.

But my favorite carry gun is my Sig P225 single stack magazine 9mm.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 02:49 PM

Randy, the Wardog handle is really great. I don't use mine any more because I like the anorexic B4 better. I can see why you love it though.

I do have a HACK Bear Cub, which is actually really great; I EDC it all the time. It has the short guard too, but since the handle is meant for two fingers, your pinky helps to keep your hand from sliding forward.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 02:49 PM

I thought I wanted an SS4. I lusted after one. But after getting the 311 (as a user, Vs my Mud puppy le that mostly stays in the house) I decided to pass. At 4.5 inches in blade length, it was just to close to my S5 and the Wardog/Wardog HACK.

Makes sense. But there are beginning to be a lot of people starting to teach Law Enforcement officers defense with the knife. There have always been classes for civilian knife defense/offense.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 03:34 PM

Can you see what I mean about the MBC? The guard is like a Speed bump. One wrong push cut and there goes your fingers. The edge was crazy sharp too. I wanted to buy a bunch of them for my nephews and friends, but it would lead to certain disaster for a kid who can't hold a knife.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 03:43 PM

Yeah I see what you mean. That (the lack of a guard) is one thing (OK, Money is a large factor as well) that keeps me from getting a nice Pukko.
Posted By: Flux

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 03:59 PM

Yeah, I hear you on that.

So out of the regulators, I'm really liking the TT version. I have to buy a car, so my knife buying is on hold for at least a few weeks to months, but I think I may try to pick one up.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 04:20 PM

Hey Ryan, when it first flips over to another page, before any posts actually show up, do you get a double set of page numbers and no posts?
Posted By: Flux

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 04:21 PM

Oh yea? A fellow dog sent me a list of like 5 TTs that he'd be willing to sell. I thought maybe you had one, which is why I brought it up. Anyways, I'm gonna have to wait. My knife buying is on hold until blade.

Oh, the other blade I'm reluctantly going to sell potentially is my SAR-3. I'm buying a car and a somewhat expensive one too, plus I'm planning for my move to New Hampshire, so I've gotta purge a bit. I'll get over it.

I read a PM from you from a while back where you said you would really like a B-10. What do you like about it compared to the DF? Is it because you like thinner & lighter choppers?
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 04:24 PM

Yeah I was going the thinner and lighter aspect. The BWM is almost (I THINK) as heavy the DF, but NO WAY am I getting rid of it, OR the Regulator that came with it.

Even though the BWM may be just about as heavy as the DF, it feels at least to me to be quicker handling and does not seem as heavy. I can't really explain it unless it's the handle shifting the center of balance.

Believe it or not, the BWM is heavier than the DF CG by about 2.5 oz, probably 3.5 in your case with the G-10. I know what you mean though, the BWM does feel lighter because of the fact that the DF CG is so forward heavy.

The Basic 10 LE would be perfect for you! Tbh it's My least favorite of the 4. I still love it though!! Maybe someday you'll get your Basic 10 LE <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />.
Posted By: Flux

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 04:45 PM

The Basic 10 would sounds like exactly the knife you would want. Because it is only .23" and not very tall, it is very fast in the hands. It would make for a great bush whacker / quasi-machete. Also, the FFG and thinner bleeding sharp edge makes it a decent chopper for its weight. It's lighter than many of my 6" knives, so you know that it would carry like a feather in the right sheath. I think you'd really love it.
Posted By: Flux

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 04:46 PM

But all in all, the BWM is likely a faster chopper, so as long as you like the handle and don't mind the extra weight, you've certainly got yourself a winner of a blade!
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/13/12 04:51 PM

Yeah Sounds like the B10 would be fantastic! Oh Well, like you said I have a BWM that I SHOULD have for as long as I can remember what a knife is, which may not be all that much longer considering my advanced old age! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

A guy is driving around and he sees a sign in front of a house:
"Talking Dog For Sale."
He rings the bell, and the owner tells him the dog is in the backyard.
The guy goes into the backyard and sees a Labrador Retriever
sitting there.

"You talk?" he asks.
"Yep," the Lab replies.
"So, what's your story?"
The Lab looks up and says, "Well, I discovered that I could talk when
I was pretty young, and I wanted to help the government; so I told the
CIA about my gift, and in no time at all they had me jetting from
country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders,
because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping. I was one of
their most valuable spies for eight years running."

"But the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't
getting any younger so I wanted to settle down. I signed up for a
job at the airport to do some undercover security work, mostly
wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some
incredible dealings and was awarded a batch of medals. I got married,
had a mess of puppies, and now I'm just retired."

The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants
for the dog.

"Ten dollars."

The guy says, "This dog is amazing. Why on earth are you selling him
so cheap?"

"Because he's a liar. He didn't do any of that stuff."

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/14/12 12:25 PM

it takes a lot to make an idea into something. not something you can build a family with and not something you will benefit from on a regular basis. consistency speaks volumes and if it wasn't for that we would all suffer.

so while I'm glad I can step out on a limb I'm more hoping it will pay off than insuring it will.

well i did the saleman thing for 6 or so years and ill tell you I love a do it for the lover. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

fair warning... once it soaks in you will probably start to feel it in the same places you felt it before. good thing is you will know it and respond to it much better.

but I do agree... you have to be able to enjoy it. I enjoyed my time on the sales floor because I helped people and was able to make a living doing it. once it finallly came down to paying the bill it was a real pain. when i started working there it was great and when l left there was even better.

Marshall, Congratulations about the raise! But unless you like the midnight to -- shift sorry to hear it.

Personally I like it. It actually gives Patty and I more time together and to do things. Of course I get off at 0800, home by 0830 and don't go to bed until about 1500 at the earliest.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/15/12 01:58 AM

Actually Todd, I don't blame you for not wanting to ride in the rain. I didn't either, the roads get slick on two wheels when it's raining.

I used to have a Varago several years ago, a 550. It was a really nice bike, but just to small so I sold it when Patty and I got together. She had an uncle get killed on a bike so she's scared of them. Oh well, probably a lot better and safer for me to not have one, but I do miss riding.

Just haven't had a chance to pick up any yet. I actually don't mind riding in the rain. But since I'm still getting adjusted to the bike I don't want to push my luck.

I didn't mind it TO bad, as long is it wasn't raining to hard or as long as there wasn't someone trying to push me into going faster than I was comfortable with in that weather.

Just make sure you have an idea of what you're looking for and what they're going for before you visit those sites. Just like ebay, there are people asking astronomical prices for their stuff.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/16/12 07:51 AM

gotta make sure it'll work in bad weather. i'm substituting my old crummy blue bivy for the adventure medical heat sheets bivy i used in the light showers last night. it actually worked well, except i don't have a mosquito net and i got eaten up. i'm going to come up with a velcro attachment for that problem.

should i worry about lightning while i'm in that mylar bag?

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/16/12 07:57 AM

I wouldn't worry about the Mylar. It is actually polyester with a vapor coat (extremely thin, like a few atoms thick) of aluminum. Aluminum in bulk is a very poor conductor anyway.

Just stay away from trees.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/16/12 08:06 AM

i bought three heat sheets products a few years ago, only ever used the thermo bivy 2. finally took the much smaller emergency bivy out of the stuff sack and i think i prefer it to my old nylon bivy.

think i'm gonna put grommets on the heat sheets blanket.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/16/12 08:12 AM

I have the same Bivy. The adventure medical SOL heat sheets bivy. I used it use while camping in the Rockies during fall. I figured it was September and couldn't get too cold, so I packed a small summer sleeping bag. Wasn't nearly enough, it dropped down to freezing at 9,000+ feet. I didn't think about the altitude or the latitude. The bivy made sleeping much easier. The sleeping bag was only rated to 32F. And we all know the ratings are lies.
Posted By: Magnum22

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/16/12 08:20 AM

i have used the thermo bivy in the cold in my hammock, which wasn't that great. i never got it wet, but i should try that too. it seems like more of a sleeping bag than a bivy bag.

Ciao Fabio! (did I spell that right?)

All I had was lab work, I see my doctor on the 23rd. Patty had the lab work and then saw here doctor. He changed up one of her medicines and told her that she needed to get compression stockings because of the blood clots in her left leg. It is always swollen larger than the other leg from the ankle to the knee mostly. From the knee up the swelling is not so bad. We found a new style stocking, it actually looks like a medium weight sock that goes all the way to her knees. She says they are hot but a lot better than the old ones.

I´m trying to find a pack that is little bigger than my Maxped Condor II so that I can carry my hammocking gear, Storm kettle, spare clothes, food and water in a 1-2 night hikes. I like the alice design because it has three quite large outside pockets, a big mouth in main compartment and it still isn´t huge. Of course the price is one thing. If I could use 200-300$ for a pack it would be different.

Still I´m using 200-300$ to SY steel...

Thanks HD. I'm fine...or at least I didn't have a heart attack <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> There's a couple other things to check that run in the family. Just hoping the cardiologist comes soon. I would LOVE to get outta this medical death trap.

Gundog, College professors are "enlightened", they don't like guns, eating of animals, or ANYTHING that amounts to personal freedom or the belief the government should leave us alone and adhere to the constitution!

Glad for the amendment. My dad is a college professor (Political Science at that). He's got more guns than probably most of us put together, kills and eats lots of animals, goes cowboy action shooting on a regular basis, teaches a hunter safety training course, and is a very conservative Republican <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I did. Good pics. We see them so often around here that I quit taking pics of them. Every now and then I'll see one strutting and try to get a quick pic or to, but it's rare.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/17/12 09:59 AM

75-300 on a Canon eos. It increases the focal length by 1.6, so it's like a 120X480.

WAY back in the late 70's I had a double on my Pentax. I had a telephoto 300mm lens. That rascal would reach out there and catch something!
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/17/12 10:16 AM

Yep, sure will. But even on a tripod I have a hard time keeping the camera steady enough to get sharp shots of the moon. It's something that I work on every chance I get.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/17/12 10:17 AM

And on these newer cameras you can't use a cable release. MAYBE a timer mode IF you have a static shot.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/17/12 10:37 AM

I've got a remote release for both of mine, so that isn't the problem. It's just tough technically to get it right, plus there can't be any wind, etc.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/17/12 10:38 AM

You notice that I've never posted any pics of the moon, right. That's because I've never took one that I was satisfied with.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/17/12 10:42 AM

I took a picture of the moon once, way back before I went into the AF. It was winter. I was using B&W film and took a pic of the moon through the limbs of a leafless tree. Rested the camera on the top of my car. It actually turned out good, but alas the picture is gone, but I still remember the way it looked. Full moon showing the light and dark spots.

Randy, in going to try to get a schedule like that, but the office seems pretty strict on 9-5 since I'm a manager of sorts. I actually chose my hours at my old job, which was nice. I really need to find another job where I can telecommute (work from home). I liked that the best. At my last job, I was able to telecommute occasionally.

So on my third day at this new job, I was in the restroom... Should I continue this story?

I will anyways. I walk in and someone in the stall was clearly having too much fun with himself for work, if you know where I'm getting at. I nearly lost my lunch.

What I'm trying to figure out is who the person was and whether I should report them.

Sorry man I saw on BF a pair of Lost Mountain Iron Sheaths sold for 200$ each <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />

What is special about this nonsense to cost?

My opinion

I don't get it either. It is cool that it has two pockets and they are apparently well made. $200 is a lot, but they are the only 10"-11" generic sheaths out there. Unless you make your own sheaths, it's expensive to have to buy sheaths for all of your choppers, so I can see why people like them and will pay that much. I never would, since my sheaths cost the price of a sheet of Kydex.

SUPPLY AND DEMAND FABIO, plus what Flux said. They are good, but in my opinion not worth that much. $100.00 maybe, which I think was about 30-40 dollars over what they cost new.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 10:42 AM

Oh hey, Pattys best friend has a son that is a photographer. I would say professional but he doesn't do it for a living, but he could, he's that good. He DOES take a lot of pictures for and of people but he is disabled.

Anyway, he was across the street at his mom's house today and told Patty to come over and bring her camera. So away we went. He started looking and messing with her camera a canon eos Xs (he uses some 800 dollar nikon) and started pushing buttons and changing settings and such and told her to ALWAYS (almost anyway) to shoot in manual mode and showed her how to do it. He save some kind of settings for her to use when shooting at Mingo and showed her a couple of things and she took a picture of a rabbit out the front door and MAN was it good. What ever he did sure did work. She now uses a wheel on the camera to get the f stop set and her pictures hopefully will be greatly improved. We are going to find out when I get off in the morning. MINGO here we come!
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 10:48 AM

I shoot in aperture priority most of the time. I set the f-stop and the camera sets the shutter speed to go with it.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 10:49 AM

If I'm getting something besides what I want, I'll go to manual and do it all myself. But most of the time, the camera is pretty good once I set the f-stop

I think that is what he has set up for patty. Something about using portrait mode and she uses a wheel up by the shutter release to get the F stop "Centered" then snaps the shot.

Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 11:08 AM

I know that is not a "Pro" choice camera and the lens 75-250 (I mistakenly said 300 the other night) is only a $250.00 lens, but for a hobbyist, I think it is a fairly good set up.

I would like to get her a really nice camera and a much better lens.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 11:14 AM

My main camera is a Nikon D2h. When I bought it years ago I paid about $1800 for it used. New, it was about $3600. But it's paid for itself several times over shooting sports and such. Now I carry a Nikon D80 that I traded a case of 5.56 ammo for. It takes much better pictures, but doesn't perform nearly as good at high-speed stuff.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 11:20 AM

Patty just needs (Wants) a good quality camera that has relatively easy to learn and understand controls the she can change fairly quickly and a good quality lens. I don't know how the Canon Xs she has rates, but It MIGHT work well for her if she just had a higher quality lens.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 11:22 AM

One thing I don't like about the lens she has now is that when she zooms in close, the length of the lens changes. Are they all like that?

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 11:47 AM

Ok, over the past how ever long, you have gotten a feel for the kind of pictures Patty likes to take. She likes Canon and Nikon both, but likes the Canon a bit better. IN YOUR OPINION, what would be a good set up (or we just get a better lens for her canon Xs) with a good lens, Nikon or Canon.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 11:49 AM

I'd go to a store and let her handle a Nikon, just to see how it feels and how easy the menu system is for her to go through. I prefer Nikon myself, but I know plenty of people that use Canon and love them. It's really just whatever she likes. They both do well.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 11:56 AM

She already has the standard either 18 or 28 to 55 mm lens and the 75-250 for the Canon but she VERY rarely uses the small lens.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 12:00 PM

My most used lens is an 18-70mm, but I normally am shooting people or scenery. I carry a 70-300mm in my bag, but I don't carry my pro lenses around normally. Just too heavy to haul around.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 12:11 PM

What do you think of that two lens kit I linked to? Would it be better than her Xs with a better lens?
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 12:17 PM

That would be a heck of a kit for her. The lenses are both VR lenses, which are Vibration Reduction. Basically, helps eliminate shakiness. It's a nice feature.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 12:17 PM

BUT you can also buy IS lenses for Canon, which is basically the same thing. If she's happy with her current camera, you could go that route.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 12:22 PM

The 75-250 she has is an IS lens. Maybe by learning these new functions she will get into it more. How would a 1.4 or doubler work with that setup? Would using the new functions overcome the light reduction that a multiplier would bring?
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 12:26 PM

Just have to take the ISO up a stop or two. The 1.4 reduces light by one stop, the 2x by two stops.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 12:26 PM

In other words, if she was using the 1.4x, she'd need to change her ISO from 200 to 400 to maintain the same shutter speeds and f-stop.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 12:27 PM

Or open her aperture up one stop, like from f5.6 down to f4; OR lower her shutter speed by a stop to allow more light in, such as going from 1/320 to 1/160.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 12:29 PM

Just think of light as being like water. You want the same amount of water to come through the opening all the time (perfect exposure)
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 12:30 PM

More light = smaller aperture OR faster shutter speed.
Less light = larger aperture OR slower shutter speed.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 12:32 PM

And the variable is the ISO, or what amounts to film speed. You can use a higher ISO in lower light in place of a larger aperture or slow shutter speed.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 12:33 PM

That's where Canon has whipped Nikon over the past years, until just recently. Canon has had the market cornered on high ISO sensors, but Nikon is equal to them now. (Or maybe even a little better, or so I hear)

She is just starting to understand all this, ISO speed, F stop setting shutter speed.

I just read a review on them multipliers and the guy said that actually, In cases of most of the lenses like hers, you will be better off cropping (enlarging) your picture than actually using the converter. You'll get better sharpness and truer "Colors".

Cropping is better than cheap multipliers. That's true. But a good multiplier is better than cropping.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/18/12 12:58 PM

If the canon one would fit (I don't think hers is the "L" series) I would feel a lot better about it. Using 3rd party units, I don't know which brand is better, or at least considered "The best of the rest".

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/19/12 07:49 AM

guess i should be more detailed. I picked up a kelty lumbar pack, 750ci capacity, and filled it with a relatively complete kit (comfort oriented, not survival) with about half of the bag still available for food.

i'd like to fit as many meals as possible into a nalgene bottle, which will double as the bear canister.

Howdy yard!

Wanted to share something that happened. I was walking on site trying to get a nice picture of the sunrise. As I walked between two water towers I saw this huge owl flying just to my right upwards to the water tower. It got within 5m of me. I did not notice what owl it was, too dark and too fast, but the round head and flat face was a dead give away and of course its size!

Pretty much an awesome way to start a day!

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/19/12 11:59 AM

Well Randy, the doctor said that I actually have a couple of things going on with my hand. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> The locking finger is referred to as "trigger finger", resulting from inflammation, and arthritis. He gave me a cortisone shot at the base of my finger (OUCH! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />) as a first step. If that hasn't helped in six weeks, surgery may follow.

I received a new bottle of higher dose thyroid pills in the mail, and have another follow up visit the end of next month.

A bit of good news is that my one dog does NOT have a cancerous tumor in his mouth, but the surgery to remove the built up tissue growth will cost me the equivalent of a couple of Busse knives. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

Well.... NOW they think she has parathyroid disease. It has nothing to do with the thyroid though. And she has ALL the classic symptoms. The levels are supposed to be between 8 and 65. Hers was 435.

Yup. I grilled up some burgers and venison backstraps seasoned three ways (traditional steak seasoning, a rub I concocted for smoking pork roasts but works nice and tasty on the steaks, and an East Asian-inspired marinade). My wife added a cabbage and cranberry salad and a bag of chips and there ya are. Fat AND sassy! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/21/12 06:13 AM

kabar pestilence. i had some chopped maple sitting in front of the house for four years minimum, probably longer. pulled out a six inch thick log and split it. tough job, i almost never flex my knives or hit them that hard,but it came through.

then i chopped those thinner sections into shorter pieces to fit in my fire pit. my gransfors might have only done slightly better.

then i shaved some nice, fine slivers. my mora 2000 might have only done slightly better.

the blunt tip is very easy to hold to throw sparks from close in, easily lighting those shavings.

i do know that i'm giving it more credit than it deserves. i could have put that same edge geometry on any heavy knife, but those two inch broad blades make little tasks difficult. this one's narrow near the hand and big at the tip.

Beaudreau was told that his sister had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl, and the sister had given permission for him to name the twins. When he visited his sister she asked him if he had named the babies.
"Yeah, I did". He replied. " Baby girl I named Daniece."
"Beautiful, that's a fine Cajun name. And the baby boy?"
"I named him Danephew".

Takes me an hour and a half just to get to Bass Pro, and I count myself lucky there! I'd spend WAY too much money if it were closer!

You can get a covered hammock from Sprotsman's Guide I think. It would be my luck to wake up with a water mocassin curled up under me! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />
No water moccasins here. Just rattlers and copperheads!

evenin men. tonight we are outside on a z-lite (15oz) paired with the prolite extra small (8oz), thermo-lite 2.0 bivy (9oz), and the all weather blanket (12oz) serving as our tarp as it is raining all week.

i think i'm going to sew up my own custom mosquito net to fit into this configuration.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/23/12 11:32 AM

As opposed to last night, when we had a guy beat his girlfriend so bad they had to fly her out, she may lose her sight in one eye. But she did stab him twice in the back, and once he gets released from the hospital he's being arrested for attempted murder.

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/23/12 11:35 AM

Did she stab him before or after the beating?

Re: Zombie outbreak continues - 05/23/12 11:37 AM

The 15 was with my guys and mids. I have been pulling two shifts for a bit the next shift is short supervisors and we have a healthy overlap. The most I can have if everyone is healthy and shows up is 14.

We are hurting badly. I had 8 and the next shift had 7. We need 15-20 to handle the call volume on my shift alone.

Counting everyone that has a county commission, dispatchers and jailers, we have 27. Now mind you out of the commissioned officers (14) 6 are not road officers. One is the Sheriff, one the chief deputy, one the investigator, one doesn't even work here (he runs the juvenile detention center but has a commission), one is our drug task force officer, and one paper server.

She's most likely blinded in one eye, permanantly. Orbital fractures, skull fractures, brain hemmorages, etc. He may have killed her if she didn't stab him.

ON a different note, I got some more zipper pulls from Drbarnes the other day. I had him make the "Loops" 4 inches long and put brass Pirate skulls (with an eye patch) on them. I put one on my Wardog and didn't like the way it hung so I cut the loop and ran the single line through the lanyard hole and melted the two ends together. Like THAT I should have cut about an inch off it before hand. I still might. They are the same color as my Chopping lanyard on the BWM. I LIKE 'EM!

Oh HOWDY DAWGS! Just been playing with my Wardog.

Re: Some dove love for Randy - 05/24/12 12:40 PM

Well it wasn't actually abuse for one of Dan's knives, but I am sure glad I had it. I had to pry open a storage room door at my Stepsons place. Someone had locked it (it is an outside storeroom) and he has never had a key for it!

Just stuck the tip between the door and frame, shoved it in until it stopped and then shoved it sideways with my hip until the frame moved enough that it opened right up! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Hey Marty! Doves are such nice birds. And while we are on birds, Patty is going to enter her Indigo bunting in the Mingo Swamp Friends Photo contest this year.

Birds are wonderful and can tell us a lot. For example, they know when there is trouble on the way long before we even notice, can tell us if there is an animal close by, can warn animals we are close by. We have a bird that actually follows hunters/people around in the bush screeching and warning all animals of your presence.

I had to look Indigo Bunting up, seems like a wonderful bird?

I don't know if you CAN abuse a Regulator by hand without some kind of assistance.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Some dove love for Randy - 05/24/12 12:46 PM

I don't know anything about the habits/lifestyle of the Indigo Bunting but it is a pretty bird.

And you're right, birds are an early warning system for a lot of things. If you're in the woods and there are NO birds making noise, you might want to look around real close and see if there is anything that would alert them.

Well let's see if getting bored will help.

My Test results show I have an elevated sgot/ast level, it should be no higher than 39. My sgpt/alt level should not be over 40. This means I have a fatty liver (?) that if I loose 20 pounds MIGHT go away.

My LDL Cholesterol level was 109. MY psa was 0.66 AND my tsh level was good as well.

My A1C was at 5.9 and my estimated Average (for 3 months) was 123!

You sleepy yet?

He taught my dad to hunt when he was young, and then later helped my dad teach us.
He gave me my first shotgun (I still have it) and first pocket knife (sadly long lost)
He could pick up and play any musical instrument, just one of those guys that you would be lucky to meet once in your life

Posted By: coyotebc

Re: Some dove love for Randy - 05/26/12 10:37 AM

I do miss him, real funny story about how I heard he passed away.
The last couple of years of his life he had Alzheimer and his son lived in the house next to him.
They lived up in the interior, very rural area.
My uncle spent his last year or so in a small hospital in the nearest town.

My 2 brothers and I went up to that area hunting for 5 days and the plan was to stop by his son's house on day 3 (Saturday his day off) and stop by the hospital on the way home.

Our second day out there, I meet this guy in the woods that I never saw before. This was the middle of nowhere, he was surprised to see me as only the locals knew this area.
I told him I grew up hunting this area, and when I mentioned my uncle's name, he got a look on his face and told me he passed away the night before.
About 2 hours later we were at his son's place who was very relieved to see us because he could not find my dad's phone number anywhere.

It may sound odd but it was sort of fitting that we found out while doing something he loved and taught us to do in the area he loved the most

GREAT! I was really worried about sending it to you the way it was, but then I thought it was an older knife and it may mean more to you the way it was. Truly, in that trashy house that was the ONLY thing that I would was salvageable. I have been in many barnyards that were cleaner than that place.

As far as being actually sick, not to bad. BUT she is starting to show stronger symptoms of this new thing they have discovered and say she has. Hyperparathroidism.

Headaches, memory loss, aching bones, irritability, loss of appetite, and some others.

The Parathyroid glads control the calcium, phosphorus and vitamin D in the body and it that balance gets out of whack, it is amazing the problems it causes.

As far as being actually sick, not to bad. BUT she is starting to show stronger symptoms of this new thing they have discovered and say she has. Hyperparathroidism.

Headaches, memory loss, aching bones, irritability, loss of appetite, and some others.

The Parathyroid glads control the calcium, phosphorus and vitamin D in the body and it that balance gets out of whack, it is amazing the problems it causes.
How treatable is it

Good thing is IF IT IS WHAT SHE TRULY HAS, a 20 minute surgery is 100 percent cure!

She sees the endocrinologist on the 5th of June. She had some tests Friday and she is supposed to have AT LEAST an ultrasound at the office. If she has the surgery we are going to St. Louis. There isn't any endocrine surgeons around here, and seeings how the 4 glads are located so close to her voice box she wants to make sure she has someone used to working in that area.

Re: Some dove love for Randy - 05/26/12 12:17 PM

Dr gave me a pretty good health report, said my diabetes is well under control, but he is not happy about my blood pressure. Average is probably medium high 130's (say 136-139 average). Told me I have to walk several times a week and to loose 20 pounds at least. IF I don't get my BP down to at least 130 in 30 days I have to double up on my BP med. I would rather not do that. The lower number is in the low to mid 80's, right around where it should be.

Re: Some dove love for Randy - 05/26/12 12:23 PM

Yup, doing pretty good. We were going to have a meeting after church sunday night but realized it's memorial day so we put it off a week. We're going to offer him a job as Interim pastor. We don't want to go to quick this time like they did with the other guy. It's a permanent position, but NOT THE pastors position, if that makes any sense.

Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Some dove love for Randy - 05/26/12 12:26 PM

I guess I should say it is a permanent position that still allows us to let him go at any time without having a full congregation vote. The Deacons and pulpit committee could let him go as an interim.

He's an ole style preacher, isn't the best orator (and HE has said that) but he DOES care and it REALLY shows, and that is what we need, at least for now. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Re: Some dove love for Randy - 05/26/12 12:33 PM

Reverend Morgan is the pastor at the church my grandmother used to go to.
I have a huge amount of respect for him.
When my grandmother was bedridden and couldn't leave the care facility, he visited her at least once a week for years.
He was her pastor for at least 25 years, and to my mind he represents what a pastor should be.
He is a truly caring person

Re: Some dove love for Randy - 05/26/12 12:46 PM

None of us Understood either. AND add to that that when we had the funeral dinners for this couple (he passed and then she did 4 months later) that pastor WAS at the church, but REFUSED to come out of his office for the dinner and to associate with anyone.

Later on, when I lost my cool and was VERY unchristian like to him in church he talked to the deacon and told him that he (the pastor) was very hurt that he was not asked to preach the funerals for them. The deacon had explained when they died (both times) that it was his parents wish that a former pastor preach their funerals.

Re: Some dove love for Randy - 05/26/12 12:56 PM

PRIDE. This is the same guy that said one of the reasons for coming back was to SHOW THE TOWN he was not the punk they thought he was (and he was) way back in high school. He should be able to let the past be the past.

From things he said while he was setting in our house on numerous times, I always had a lingering feeling about him. We went to school together.

I am NO SAINT, but it's folks like that that give Christianity a bad name.

I knew about the proposed center. When I was in Japan in my "Secret Squirrel" job, I had liasons with NSA, CIA, and other alphabet agencies.

I know about "Trigger words", but what steams me is that some innocent words are included. Also did you know (Not sure exactly of the specifics) but the Government has supposedly all internet traffic going through some of their servers BEFORE actually getting to the internet, something about a hack or something. It's the stuff they are talking about that WILL YOUR COMPUTER be able to access the internet after July 1.

What I do know is that the big telecoms are working with the gvt, so really there is no limit to what they collect. That is why I use open DNS and Tor. Although Tor can be traced, it would take effort to do so. If you want to use the net securely, Tor is a start.

Most likely a spammer, but we can wait a day to see if they forgot to use the translator. If we don't see a correction, then it's "ban time". <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

So then "Banning" that registered user does take care of the problem, at least until (OR IF) they get by with another one?

Today was a good day. Church was really nice, preacher did a sermon entitled "In Memorium" took it from the 22 chapter of Joshua starting with verse 9.

After church Patty and I took the deacon that lost both his parents (Dad in Oct '11) Mom in Feb '12) to lunch. Went to Ryans and stuck around there talking longer than it took us to eat.

First Time I have seen him truly relax and laugh in the last 3 years.

Re: Jarod's hitched! - 05/28/12 07:21 PM

Doc told me I need to loose weight and get my BP down. Patty needs to exercise as well but DOES NOT SWEAT so her outside (Heat wise) time is very limited.

We're looking at a treadmill. I am looking at a Golds gym (570 crosswalk), one by Epic (TL2200) and the proform (590T). Any suggestions?
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Jarod's hitched! - 05/28/12 07:24 PM

Skunk check out proform online. Thats where I got mine and I have been very happy. I got a commercial grade one for the price of a home treadmill. Also check out megafitness.com

Alot of it depends on your price range. I bought when they were pushing the previous years models out the door and got free shipping and about 50% off buying the previous years model.

Re: Jarod's hitched! - 05/28/12 07:28 PM

Proform is the same company that makes Reebok, and Nordictrack as well as several other brands
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Jarod's hitched! - 05/28/12 07:56 PM

Thanks MB. the proform is the leading brand we are thinking about.

How hard are they to put together?
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Jarod's hitched! - 05/28/12 08:09 PM

Mine wasn't hard to put together. I did it by myself including getting it into the basement. It was very heavy. It was probably a 3 man job with the one I got. But I am stubborn strong and stupid at times. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />.

I have been very happy so far.

I got it a little over a year ago and have 150 miles on it. I put 100 on before I injured my knee and had surgery then another 50 in the past couple months.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Jarod's hitched! - 05/28/12 08:16 PM

You could do a pretty nice setup with a misting fan for Patty. I have to say as bad as I hate running or walking on a treadmill I hurt less and weather isn't an excuse to miss a cardio session.

Its one of my favorite pieces of equipment. As much as I hate it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />. It had helped me drop a bunch of weight over the past 2 months.

Thank you MB for introducing hammock camping to me! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Re: Zombies In Miami - 05/30/12 10:19 AM

Anytime Timo. Relaxing isn't it. Thats what we were hoping to do while camping. It may be too cold for a hammock without underquilts. At least for the runt.

It WAS good! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I wonder as to just how authentic it was considering that it was a Kostner production.

$550.99 We got a Nordictrack T5.7 Treadmill. The doctor warned me in needed to loose at least 20 pounds and I had to get my BP down to at least 130 for an upper number or he was going to have to double my BP meds. AND by loosing weight he thinks I MIGHT be able to get off or at least decrease my diabetes meds. PLUS Patty needs it for the same thing. She can't take the diabetes medication any more because it is hard on her kidneys and her kidneys are not functioning very well as it is.

He's probably got a letter from his doc.

No doctor's note. With the new scanners, I have no issues. Some airports are still running old school metal detectors, and I set most of them off. Then, I get the extra privilege of a good pat down from your friendly TSA worker and they wave the wand all over me. Some even ask if they can feel the implants. I let them.

I always ask what an average tip is when they are down the crotch pat down part. Makes them as uncomfortable as me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I get lots of "WTF" looks when I am in uniform getting pulled to the side for a pat down.

Well, Tuesday made the second time I was hit by a vehicle (neither time was I in a car), Fell from a two story roof top during a training exercise, martial arts training a few times, got hurt on one deployment, bicycle wrecks as a child, fell out of a tree etc etc

I am clumsy by no means, careless and reckless I am.

I have been very lucky as to not getting any permanent injuries that stop me from serving in the Corps. I lost hearing and that almost did, but I showed devotion and they gave me a waiver. I can't fully rotate my left forearm but I can still pass a physical fitness test with flying colors, so they leave me alone about it.

I spoke with the Veterans Affairs rep, and she told me at first look, I qualify for 100 percent disability and can get an honorable discharge whenever I want with severance pay, but I think that is poo. I perform well. They are going to have to kick me out. Oorah!

Re: Zombies In Miami - 06/01/12 12:25 PM

The first day, ALL I could do was a quarter mile and I was whupped! Patty did a mile, the show off.

The second day I did a mile and a couple hundred feet in 25 minutes. Patty did a mile.

Today I did a mile and a few hundred cool down feet in 22 minutes at a 3 percent incline with a probably 2.5-2.75 speed. Patty could only do a half mile today.

Hey, we are going to have our good days and our bad days. Plus we are just starting out so it is going to be harder and I am sure we might have a tendency to go to hard at first.

When I was walking every day, I could do 3 miles on 6-8 degree incline in under an hour. Usually got 3.1 or 3.2 miles in an hour, which was where I stopped.
Posted By: rth548

Re: Zombies In Miami - 06/01/12 12:28 PM

My legs are short, so I can't walk much over 3.2 mph, but I can go 3.0 mph for a long time without getting tired. Or I should say that I used to be able to go for a while. Probably not now.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombies In Miami - 06/01/12 12:31 PM

Probably about 85 percent of my time Thursday was at 3mph and maybe 75 percent of that time was at 3 percent incline.

Mine is mainly because of Patty. I told her what my doctor said about me loosing weight and my blood pressure and she got all over me. Then she said she needed to do it as well since she can't take diabetes meds any more because of her kidneys. Only thing she can do (at least for now)is by diet and exercise.

In Wikipedia it was said that here where I live it´s raining every year over 25,5 inch in a year.

Re: Zombies In Miami - 06/02/12 09:37 AM

Tom is correct! We should have, for an average, 12 inches more rain by this time of the year than we do have.

And thank you for the Treadmill chart Timo. It works GREAT! I think that I am going to add at least one more category though. Won't be a problem all I am going to do is change the speed column to Calories and put speed at the end. They are not totaling entries so it won't matter.

You can reduce the widht of other columns and use column F. The chart is not very flexible so there is a chance that it won´t work as supposed after the change. You can change the calculated area manually. The totals are calculated with a formula =SUMMA(B4:B1000).

Re: Zombies In Miami - 06/02/12 09:54 AM

I think that by just changing the names of those two columns I will be ok. They are non calculating columns (only used to record each individual days entry) so the only thing changing is the column name. At least it saved it that way.

At present I own:

11 Busse Boys Blades (12 when the 911 starts shipping) and three of them were gifts! Oh and my JYD #105 Challenge coin was a gift as well. No wonder I love the Yard!

So as you can see, the Busse Boys have been good to me, in more ways than one. And MY YARD BROTHERS have been as well.

I plan on being loyal to my Bussekin steel (Pushers) as I have not found any steel that is comparable for the Price. I wouldn't call myself cheap, just thrifty. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I was just reading a USA Today article where many states and the feds are considering on taxing how many miles you drive versus a gasoline tax. BUT as we all know it will be an additional tax ON TOP of the gas tax.

Any way, they had this side bar that Y'all might find interesting:

** The FEDERAL gasoline tax now is at 18.4 cents a gallon. This is of course ON TOP of what each individual state charges.


Gasoline taxes are not generating enough revenue to pay for roads and bridges. What each state charges in tax per gallon and its effective date:

More layers of Govt. Now someone will need to monitor my odometer while I wait in yet another line. The funny part is, this is in no small part because of the government mandated fuel effeciency standards.

I already pay enough taxes at the pump. The numbers given do not reflect what my state has on the books including the feds. Last I looked it was either 45 or 48 cents a gallon with Fed and state taxes per gallon.

Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Zombies In Miami - 06/04/12 11:36 PM

GD, I'm not MB, but as far as a laser, ask yourself some realistic (Vs I sure wish I had this new toy) questions.

Face facts. If you are not law enforcement and you shoot someone with a weapon that has a laser mounted on it the Defense lawyer(S) are gonna tear you up.

Well tell us Mr. GD, WHY do you feel it necessary to use a device that will not allow you to miss when you shot (killed) Mr Crook. Isn't it true that you wanted to make sure that Mr Crook would NOT STAND A CHANCE of you missing when you shot at him without cause. Hey, don't say it can't or wouldn't happen.

Second question is HOW OFTEN are you going to need to shoot your weapon in light dim enough that your normal night sights can not be seen (another "gottcha" by the defense).

You CAN get so dependant on them that you start using them instead of relying on your sights and using the laser as a verification device.

Now don't get me wrong, I would like a laser as well, but don't truly think one would be A NECESSARY requirement as it would only be used sparingly in a civilian setting.

Just my personal thoughts. Take them or leave them. It is YOUR decision based upon YOUR needs/requirements/wants, no one else's.

Re: Zombies In Miami - 06/04/12 11:45 PM

Thanks. I am trying to figure out if it is worth the money. I also thought it might be useful on my AR at night. The 4power acog is not the best CQB sight at night
Posted By: t1m0

Re: Zombies In Miami - 06/05/12 12:27 AM

GD in low light situations tritium night sights are good and fast. In NO light situations laser ain't gonna help you - first you must see your target. Laser sight may get you fixed finding the red spot.

My opinion is: invest your money to decent night sights and gun mounted light. Practice in low light and no light situations to point and shoot. This is practical if it is possible for you to defend your self with firearm.

Posted By: t1m0

Re: Zombies In Miami - 06/05/12 12:38 AM

80 lumens is quite low power. You should consider getting more powerful light. You might want to pay attention to the angle of the light too. When you switch on your light you'll lose your night vision. Only thing you see is what's in your light. Trijicon sights should be good.

Re: Zombies In Miami - 06/05/12 07:12 AM

I thought that whole area up there was that way.

Well our rain has stopped, at least for a while. Didn't get near as much as we needed but ANY will help.

Well Patty and I have to get up early in the morning, got an early doctors appointment for Patty. HOPEFULLY we will finally start seeing some progress with at least some of the problems she has.

Y'all take care. Peace and rest to you Bill and all those you love and care for.

I wish everyone here a long happy peaceful prosperous and joyous life.

But on a different note, be got good news/bad news today from Patty's Endocrinologist. He says he thinks she has Primary AND Secondary parathyroid disease. Bad news cause he said he is 99.99999.... sure she has it. Good news because he said he is 99.99999... sure she has it.

Yeah sounds stupid I know. BUT IF it really is sure (couple more tests he wants done, one scheduled for Friday and one Monday then she has another one on Tuesday).

One problem, the secondary can be treated with medicines, the first ONLY by surgery, a surgery we hope and pray he agrees is necessary.

The girl and boyfriend have been fighting (argument) and now she wants to go to mom and dad, who she has left. She is 19 so an adult in our state. Basically there isn't any reason for us go get involved but.. well you guys know and understand. LUCKLY a deputy after talking to her knows where she is. She has NO IDEA where she is and come to find out she is about 5 miles from where she thought she was.

The deputy is going to bring here here and I have an officer from another county going to her parents house to wake them up and to come get her.

I bought a used syderco military this week
It arrived yesterday.
I am glad I got it for $40 or I would be really hot.
The blade didn't look quite right in the pictures, when I asked the guy if the tip had been broken, he said no.
He said he sharpened the tip a lot as it was his EDC and he used it for opening boxes in a warehouse.
I think he is full of it, the blade is abut 3/8th of an inch short.

Not doing to bad Bill. WE THINK that they have finally hit on what has been causing a lot of Patty's problems. The Endocronologist is doing a few more tests but he said it looks like she will need surgery to get rid of a bad Parathyroid gland. He said she has both Primary AND secondary Parathyroid disease. One can be taken care of by taking Vitamin D (which he said in her is so low it is almost undetectable). SO we (Once again) have hope. BUT this time this doctor is not jumping the gun like the last one did and make a misdiagnosis.

I may just do the Helmet if it won't cause a bunch of buffeting.

I was worried more about the boot knife, cause I've been begging Dan for one for about two years. I was hoping to carry one home, but I'm ok with the pre-order process.

Re: Death Chat Post blade.................. - 06/14/12 12:36 PM

I'll have two Elmax blades coming, and already promised on to another dog that didn't get a proxy.

I didn't realize the boots were pre-order only. At least you knew the price. The TGLB Mini REALLY piqued my interest, but with not knowing the price I just couldn't do it.

Posted By: rth548

Re: Death Chat Post blade.................. - 06/14/12 12:38 PM

The daggers will probably be going in the store, given they were pre-order only and there was a show discount. That's a guess, but I think it's reasonable.

Re: Death Chat Post blade.................. - 06/14/12 02:04 PM

Starting a lazy morning...

Was at the range last night Randy and a guy let me try his Browning Buckmark...wow! 10 on the black...5" barrel helps! hah!

That's a nice 22. I was surprised by how much I improved with a target pistol
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Death Chat Post blade.................. - 06/14/12 02:05 PM

I've got the Buckmark with an 8 inch barrel. Patty can out shoot me!
Posted By: RN

Re: Death Chat Post blade.................. - 06/14/12 03:41 PM

My dad rode me on the sr22.."it's a 3.5" barrel, the bullet's not gonna stabilize, you need more accuracy etc etc etc.."

I felt like the ruger was better fo me to train on to prep me for a 9mm auto...plus I liked how easy it is to break down. But...if shooting is supposed to be hitting what you aim at- my dad is right! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Got me thinking after I graduate up to a 9mm, maybe I'll trade the Ruger for Browning. I joked before about starving in a forest filled with bunnies/squirrels if i had my pistol....with that browning, i would eat well!

Re: Death Chat Post blade.................. - 06/14/12 03:41 PM

I have a Buckmark and it's a tack driver. I can only imagine what an 8 inch barrel can do!
Posted By: Spider-Pig

Re: Death Chat Post blade.................. - 06/14/12 03:44 PM

Rich, imagine if you had one fitted with a supressor. You could shoot 'em without spooking the rest of 'em!
Posted By: RN

Re: Death Chat Post blade.................. - 06/14/12 03:50 PM

That is one sweet 22. I looked at the target this morning...9 in 10 pt or better and 1 in 9 pt ring...yeah, I don't shoot like that with my sr22!

This is close by the way 25 ft or so...but that's where I'm practicing to learn and not discourage myself!
Posted By: Spider-Pig

Re: Death Chat Post blade.................. - 06/14/12 03:59 PM

They're accurate better than most people can shoot. I was skeet shooting with some friends of mine and I decided to try and shoot the spent shotgun shells on the ground with my Buckmark Practical from about 30-40 yards away. I was surprised that I was able to hit most of them with just one shot! I'm blessed with good eyes.

Re: Death Chat Post blade.................. - 06/14/12 04:05 PM

I'll say you are, I couldn't even SEE the shells at that distance! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Why you aren't carrying an expendable?
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: After burning - 06/15/12 08:52 AM

Its made of Bubinga. Lighter and a littler harder than Hickory. A police Officer in Baltimore made it for me. Now I am learning to twirl it. Just because its tradition.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: After burning - 06/15/12 08:55 AM

I like the fact that the expandable is always on your belt. I hate that the energy transfer is nothing comapred to a regular straight baton. Plus you can't do control holds and the expandables are shorter and way thinner.

I took mine out to take a guy down that was coming after me and it was not as affective as I would have liked it to be.

Back to a straight baton and I went with a custom because I like tradition and its just plain cool.

We have always had to option to carry a straight baton. I switched over to an ASP 15-17 years ago and really don't care for them.

It will take me a while to remember to grab this one everytime I get out pof the vehicle but it will be worth it the next time I need it.

She had the last one (for now) but won't know the results until she goes back to the Endocrinologist July 10th. He all but said it was nothing more than a formality and that he was already 99 percent sure she DOES have the parathyroid problem but that he didn't want to jump the gun like the last guy did and be wrong. AND he said If things work out like he expects them to (and they are so far) that he thinks surgery would be the only way to go. He said it could be controlled (but not cured) with drugs but he would recommend the surgery, which is what we want as well.

We were at a summer cottage this week. Just arrived home. I got to test my hammock by sleeping one night in it. The lowest temp was 10C and I noticed that a hammock is colder than a tent.

If you use an isulated pad they are just fine. Otherwise there is nothing to keep you warm. You are over air.

I'm sold on hammock camping too. It's a new thing to me and I was sharing my observations. I did have a trap over my hammock but the wind blew straight in from my feet end. So positioning was bad for staying warm but I did have a perfect view! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> I also used very thin sleeping bag with very light clothing.

I just thought about it. A few years ago Patty and I went on a tour of it with a group from another church. We found it breathtaking. We are not Catholic but ANYONE that likes artwork could not like this place. If I remember correctly, it has the largest collection of mosaic tile artwork (walls ceiling and parts of the floor)in the world. Go to the link below for a virtual tour.

But it gives a beautiful overlook of the city. If you ever go to St. Louis Missouri you MUST go to that church and the Arch also. (You might want to visit "The Hill" as well.

I'm stoked, just got off the treadmill and I am feeling pretty good. Did 1.3 miles at a 6 degree incline at 2.5 mph. May not sound like much, and in actuality it may not be much, but it gave me a pretty good workout. I can tell it is doing me some good, cause I am not as tired and I am recovering a lot faster.

I'm impressed and excited to use it- it's crazy sharp! Gonna work on a big pork shoulder on Friday and can't wait to check it out. It's a little thicker than I thought...just a bit thinner than my full sized Ritter Grip, so I figure it's plenty tough for me...feels perfect with the handle too...and fits my War Dog kydex sheath!

I'm curious to see how elmax sharpens whn the time comes.

I agree with Rich, it's plenty thick for me NOT to be afraid to USE it. I don't get the feel that it's flimsy, or weak, or needs to be babied in any sense.

IF you're talking about Hinderer the knife maker, and if he is selling only to LE types, I doubt I could as I am not a certified Police (working as) officer any more.
Posted By: Flux

Re: Newest Death Chat - 06/20/12 04:28 PM

Ok. Gotcha. Yeah, Hinderer, the knife maker. He is or was a firefighter and his policy is that he only sells his knives to wholesale dealers, And any first responders: EMTs; Firefighters; Police.

I was just curious. I am trained as a FR, but not licensed either. I was curious as to what their exact policy was. I can't seem to find anything about it.

Morning Skunk.

Timo I bought 2. The one for the laptop is just Western digital Scorpio 320GB and it is a bit faster and better cache than what was in the laptop. I was running out of memory in a bad way.

For the desk top I got a Seagate 2 TB drive which is running 6gbs and 64MB cache which is pretty good. I upgraded the regular memory as well since I cracked open the case.

I didn't have any problem cloning the HD on the laptop but the Desktop is being a pain.

I will find out eventually if the boot sectors ever finish writing. Then I can put everything back together and see if it works.

With the wireless remote it cost about $2500. I would continue saying "huh?" if that had to come out of my pocket. There are cheaper ones, but my hearing loss in that ear is too severe for those. Plus, I NEED bluetooth technology in my ear. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Re: Newest Death Chat - 06/22/12 05:34 AM

I think I could go a cheaper route since I don't need bluetooth. My problem is I really don't want to lose a hearing aid that runs $1500 to $2500 fighting some mope to get them in custody.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 06/22/12 05:48 AM

The same company that made mine sells a cheaper, but nearly identical at Costco. It is called the Future. ReSound is the company that makes them. The one I have has won tons of awards, and the Future has most of the same tech inside.


I haven't heard this clearly since I was hit by a truck nearly two decades ago. The impact from the windsheild hitting my head caused the hearing loss. This is my third hearing aid, and the only one I like wearing. The others I have had just made things louder and didn't seem to make them clearer.

Most of my hearing loss is in the high freq. range. This one makes my right ear, the bad one, hear better/clearer than my left, which has minor hearing loss.
Posted By: Anonymous

Re: Newest Death Chat - 06/22/12 05:52 AM

You are not going to get a decent hearing device for less than $1000 unless your hearing loss is minor. Then, you can probably just deal with it anyway.
Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Newest Death Chat - 06/22/12 05:54 AM

My hearing loss is mainly from a few too many flashbangs and gun fire with little or no hearing protection.

My friend bought the same one you have and he like sit a lot. I have great hearing on one side and the other misses a lot of the normal frequeny but still picks up some stuff that I'm not supposed to be able to hear.

The medical unit on Hill Air Force base tried to order the flesh colored one, but I told them I will not wear something that looks like a tumor behind my ear. That comment convinced them to order black.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 06/22/12 05:59 AM

I am sure explosives have played some part in the left ear's minor loss, but I have been pretty protective of my ears since I initially lost hearing. I wish I would have been warned more, or headed the warnings more.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 06/22/12 11:21 AM

Maple nuts made me nuts but I haven't tried those black walnuts yet.

...I don't have them maple nuts anymore... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Re: Newest Death Chat - 06/22/12 11:34 AM

Yeah the Maple nut goodies are one of our favorites. I have been eating them all my life and the still are one of my favorite candies.

You need to try the Black walnuts in ice cream or some kind of dish not just by themselves. You might try Vanilla Ice cream with the walnuts. Probably my favorite ice cream is Black walnut flavor which is basically vanilla ice cream with black walnut flavor and the actual nuts in it.

It is nice to get your self fixed by technology.
I just had laser corrective surgery done on my eyes, so no glasses for me.
Highly recommended! Except for experiencing the most extreme pain I have EVER felt afterwards. This due to some unintentional scratches on my cornea.

I am saving with mine. Today was the first time in two weeks that my truck has been out of the drive. I usually go through about $80 or so in gas every two weeks, and now I'm down to less than $30 every two weeks. And that's with a lot of recreational riding too.

The MC ride is the fastest and easiest way and requires no planning and the trip does the trick. Anything else is a bonus.

Re: Newest Death Chat - 06/23/12 12:18 PM

Sometimes the addition of alcohol will not make the ache go away, only make it more bearable.

I went through a similar situation when a schoolmate of mine was killed on the way home by a drunk driver. His wife, who had their 3 month old child with her came here looking to see if there had been any accidents. The Highway Patrol asked me to tell her. Hardest thing I have ever done in my life. I explained to her that he and I were classmates and I think that simple fact somehow or other made it easier to handle for her, that the news wasn't being delivered by a total stranger (to him) but by someone he knew.

I can completely understand her feelings in this. But at least as one expires one can be allowed to continue, and THAT means something.

We will NEVER know the reason for this, but out of tragedy, some good will come. Knowing that though will not ease the loss, perhaps make it bearable, for all of you.

On a happier note, I just did a search and the highest gas prices (within a 40 mile radius) that I could find was $3.11. Most every place was $2.99 to $3.01.

Posted By: MonkeyBomb

Re: Here comes the Sun! - 06/27/12 11:33 AM

Badly. It jumped all the fire lines and raced across the mountain at 65 mph burning everything in its path. Lost a bunch of houses, We evac'ed around 32,000 more people and My family is staying at my place. I'm hoping their home is still standing by morning. Its a toss up if it will be there or not.

Other than that it MIGHT be a good day.

Well today is Nuke her till she Glows day. They are going to inject Patty with a radioactive dye to try and get the tumors to show up. She gets injected, we have to wait 3-4 hours and then go back for the up to one hour scan.

Wish us luck that the blankety blank things show up like they are supposed to, but don't always do.

And with that, I bid you all a good Day. Peace and rest to all of you and yours. May the Western fires die and the Florida flood recede.

Re: Here comes the Sun! - 06/29/12 09:54 AM

Well we got our 103 high temperature and Yes, that IS Africa hot!

While Patty was in the hospital this weekend (congestive Heart Failure again), we got a call from her Gyn doctor. Her bone density test has gotten a LOT worse. They now have her on 1500mg calcium and 1000mg Vitamin D twice a day. Her Endocrinologist isn't happy about it but he said that yes it does need to be treated.

The Nuclear scan went well the lady said, and we should know the results MAYBE next Thursday or Friday. As goofy as it sounds we ARE hoping that the tumors show up like a million watt spotlight on a moonless night. Something's gotta give.

And thank you to EVERYONE that has sent prayers well wishes and good vibes our way. It means a lot to us.

The Appointment went fine. Now we just have to wait until next Thursday or Friday to find out. Her Endo doctor said IF the tumors don't show up that she will need to go in for exploratory surgery and actually lay eyes on them to see which one or ones are messing up.

Speaking about medical miracles, I heard something this morning about a coming Injection that you can be given and you won't have to breath for 30 minutes and will still survive. Now THIS could prove to be very beneficial and open up a lot of options for people. Will they legalize it so you could go diving without a scuba tank? Could you carry an "Emergency Syringe" while on the water in case your boat turns over?

One of our Gun Dogs, get it gun dogs, as in hunting as.... Oh never mind. Anyway thought some of you newer dogs might like to see this and the older Dogs might like a refresher. So here it is (fresh from the Keeper email portion of my email account.

Looks like the folks in Hungary have come up with a shoulder fired, long recoil operated .50 caliber semi-auto rifle, which is called the Gephard Lynx.
It is available in .50 Browning Machine Gun caliber or the old Soviet 12.7 millimeter heavy machine gun round (which was sometimes callled ".51 caliber Russian").
The gun weighs about 25 pounds and recoil doesn't seem to be all that bad.
Be sure to scroll down and watch the video:

Howdy Dogs, not Gun, knife or outdoors related but we got good news today.

They found the bad parathyroid gland! Woo HOO!!! I know it sounds strange to be happy over finding something wrong, but finding this (and getting it removed, there are 4 of them by the way) will take care of SO many of the problems Patty has been having (or it's supposed to). We go to St. Louis in 3 weeks to consult with the Surgeon and from there on with the throat cutting!

So, how are the Dogs this evening/morning?

I know this is nothing for you, but for a fat, old out of shape chairman, I feel pretty good about it.

I'm up to a mile and a half at 2.5-3mph with a 5-6 degree incline on the treadmill. I walk for 30 minutes and I can tell that I am improving, I'm not as whupped afterward as I was just a week ago. I am afraid to run on it, even though they say it SHOULD hold up. Just something about having a 6ft 272 pound old guy running on it bothers me. Now when I get down to 270..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Re: Welcome to the USSA! - 06/30/12 11:56 AM

Awesome! Don't worry about running. Walking burns about the same amount of calories as running per mile. Running just does it faster. If you are worried about hurting joints, walk fast on an steep incline like you are doing.

Keep it up old mam!

I figured that would be the case, just makes sense.

According to the machine, I'll burn about 260-288 during the 30 minutes. I am POSITIVE it isn't accurate, just an estimate but at least it gives me a reference. And Thanks JJ.

And actually my hip (the right one gives me fits sometimes) hasn't been hurting near as much as it did just a month ago.

I TRY and hit it every day but don't make it. BUT I am on it at least 3 days a week, ok, sometimes only 2. But I get on it as much as I can make it. Doc says he is going to double my BP medicine if I don't get my blood pressure below 130. I DO NOT want to double up on that. So exercise, and the food I eat combined with the weight loss will all help.

Randy, I'm a little younger than you but I've been taking 5-6 meds a week and I realized I had to make a change. While I'm doing something much more drastic. I'm juicing only raw fruits and veggies for the next 30 days. I got inspired to do it after watching the movie "Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead". I eat very unhealthy as a rule I've always been a meat and meat kind of guys. I'm closing out my first week now of juice only. The week before that I only ate only raw veggies and fruits and three weeks ago I stopped all caffiene and sodas. It has been tough as heck and at the end of the thirty days I'm going to eat a lot better.

Meaning when I'm done I plan on only having one bad meal a week (instead of two hamburgers a day).

Anyways if you have netflix online the movie is on there and if you don't you can watch it for free at http://www.jointhereboot.com/ . Its a good watch if your bored at work one night. Good luck brother!

Containment is better and its not growing much right now. 347 houses burnt to the ground and 2 dead.

The weather has been cooperating so they have been able to play a little catchup. Rain would really help.

Still waiting to get back to Dads place just to grab some stuff but they have still got the mandatory evac in place and brought in the national guard to seal the area. We are getting ready to leave for our trip and were hoping to pick up gear he needs so we can bail.

We go to St. Louis on the 23rd for a consult. Still have to see the Endocrinologist on the 10th to work on the SECONDARY PTD, which is caused by a lack of vitamin D. So her doctor was right, she had primary and secondary ptd.

Actually we are glad they found it. NOW it can be taken care of and according to everything we have read, and what her doctor says should take care of many of the symptoms she has.

Funny as it may sound.
I am glad that they found it.
Both because this is treatable and so that Patty knows that there is a physical reason for the way she has been feeling
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Death Chat Lives! - 07/01/12 10:22 AM

We feel the same exact way Bill. Patty lets what people say bother her to much. Folks are going to talk, because they are not going through it.

Re: Death Chat Lives! - 07/01/12 10:26 AM

Pauline is the same way
I always tell her the only opinions she should care about are from those she respects and cares about
I usually respond with a simple reply and not always polite

How have you been feeling
I know you have been trying to walk more
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Death Chat Lives! - 07/01/12 10:55 AM

Not doing to bad, but this heat is a killer!

I haven't been able to walk on our treadmill as much as I wanted, but today, well Saturday, I did a mile and a half at about a 2.7 MPH average with a 5 degree incline. May not be to taxing but it sure wears me out for a few minutes. Taking me 35 minutes.

Re: Death Chat Lives! - 07/01/12 10:57 AM

I really need to lose weight
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: Death Chat Lives! - 07/01/12 10:58 AM

For the Month of June, I averaged walking 3 times a week. They say that's all you need to do, but I want to do it more often. I need to get my weight down and my Blood Pressure needs to be below 130 as the top number or my doctor is going to make me double up on my blood pressure medicine. SO far I have gotten it down to 128-129 for the past week and a half.

She has walked on it some, but for the last couple weeks she has just felt so bad and sick she hasn't been able to and she has tried a couple times. She's looking forward to it as well.

Re: Death Chat Lives! - 07/01/12 12:54 PM

OK, some folks I know have actually had a pipe put into the spring or if it is a large enough and accessible place put in a submersible pump and gets their water supply directly from the source. One family has an artisan spring that they have tapped into and they have it running into an inclosed "Tank" with a pump for extra pressure.

At work we always end up with at least a little diesel fuel, crude oil, sulphur, D40 (lighter fluid), and a few other lube oils and chemicals on our coveralls. All those combined with the typical summer time man funk will force you to make sure you have a few extra sets of coveralls. We got rained on too.

Tubing would be nice but I can do without the Sunburn. Water intensifies a sunburn, making it come on much quicker. And you CAN get a sunburn under the water. When we would go scuba diving in Hawaii, I'd come back burned and most of the time was under the water!

I get irritated when people come down on our police officers, saying that they don't care about or respect others. Well, here is a story that clearly shows not all cops are in that category.

This story involves the police department in the small hill country town of Fredericksburg, TX who reported finding a man's body last Saturday in the early evening in the Pedernales River near the state Highway-87 bridge. The dead man's name would not be released until his family had been notified.

The victim apparently drowned due to excessive beer consumption while visiting "someone" in Kerrville.

He was wearing black fishnet stockings, 4 inch spiked heels, a red garter belt, a pink G-string, purple lipstick, dazzle dust on his eyelids, 1/2 inch false eyelashes and an Obama T-shirt.

The police removed the Obama T-shirt to spare his family any unnecessary embarrassment.

See there, Texas police do care.

Re: THEY FOUND IT! - 07/04/12 09:29 AM

I've probably already said, but I am old and forgetful so please cut me some slack.

I took the night off cause the puppy is sick and it is really stressing Patty out.

ANYWAY, the found the (a)tumor on her parathyroid gland (at least on one, maybe more when the do the surgery). This is the root cause of a lot of her problems, you would not dream what this grain of rice size gland (there are 4) can cause. IF you are curious and to see the bad things look up "Hyper Parathyroid Disease"

It can cause nerve problems, bad temper, nausea, lack of interest in anything and a host of other problems. BUT we go to St. Louis to consult with the physician on the 23rd prior to the surgery. No one around here is qualified to perform that kind of surgery and all the docs recommend we go to Barnes Jewish Hospital in St. Louis, and we are.

So hopefully by the end of August at the latest she will be all patched up and we will just have to wait for the remaining glands to get her stabilized which they are telling us can take from 1-3 maybe 4 months to finally get back to normal. That plus her vitamin D level being almost non measurable has let to a lot of problems the will take care of the majority of her problems. Then they can start working on her Kidneys and other areas.

And with this lengthy post I am gonna hit the sack.

Peace and rest to you and all those you know love and care for. Watch your backs and watch out for those who DON'T watch out for you.

Coolest I've rode in since I got this one was 46 degrees. That was a bit chilly. It's usually in the 60's here in the mornings when I get off work. Light jacket and gloves, but nothing special other than that.

I wear a half helmet, and I've gotten popped by a few bugs. My windshield deflects most of them.

A few years ago, a buddy of mine rode through a honeybee swarm. That didn't turn out so good, but he kept it upright til he got stopped. Didn't bother with a kickstand though, just dropped it and ran.

Bugs in the teeth and all! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Btw...Got hit with a big bug the other day while my face mask was up. That hurt! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

I wear a half helmet, and I've gotten popped by a few bugs. My windshield deflects most of them.

A few years ago, a buddy of mine rode through a honeybee swarm. That didn't turn out so good, but he kept it upright til he got stopped. Didn't bother with a kickstand though, just dropped it and ran.
Man that is my nightmare!

Worst I ever got hit was by a Junebug. Thing felt like I got shot. But at least it didn't sting!

I've got some pretty good cold weather gear, but I need some good gloves and maybe some insulated jeans for riding in the winter.
I bought a work Bib from Wally world for 50 bucks or so. They are meant for cold weather construction stuff I think. They are perfect for riding. They zip up both legs so you don't have to take off the boots first. They are really thick also. The ones made for motorcycles are like 300 bucks...No thanks!!!

There is a leather shop here at the local flea market, they sell gloves pretty cheap. I'm talking half-finger leather gloves with padded palms for $4 cheap. I'm gonna see if they can order me some winter gloves.

At that price you can buy 5 pairs and who cares how long they last! I found some military surplus leather gloves online for 4 bucks a pair and they are far better than what you would get at the local stores for 20 bucks.

Yeah in "Tourist traps" it's hard to find anything worth having a lot of times, unless you want to spend more than it's worth. Same no matter where you go in the world. Most folks just want a little something as a memento of the trip and good quality is secondary, unfortunately.

Yup Firefighters, OF ALL KINDS many times don't get the recognition they truly deserve. In our county there is not a single city (our largest is just shy of 9,000) has anything but a volunteer Fire Department. The response times are unbelievably fast. Many times from first page out to at least someone being en route to the station or direct to the fire is only 3 minutes!

Re: It's alive! - 07/06/12 12:29 PM

I've only mowed our grass twice in going on 2 months. The deep sandy soil just sucks the water down before it can get taken in by the grass. We've had one pretty good rain and a couple other LITTLE ones, but not enough to get it growing hardly at all. We've had the lawn grow more in a week than it has lately.

Re: It's alive! - 07/06/12 12:32 PM

Not to bad. I don't like the heat, but I can put up with it. I got a nice RealTree cowboy style hat where the hat part (not the crown or the brim) is mesh and boy does that make a lot of difference. If there is any breeze it goes through the mesh and allows good cooling.

We were out "In the heat" today for about 15 minutes and it had already started affecting Patty. As I have said before, PATTY DOES NOT SWEAT! She will overheat in a heartbeat and I watch her really close when she's outside in anything over about 85 degrees or so.

Just looking at some maps of the Blue Ridge Parkway. I'm gonna make it my mission to ride it all this summer, from one end to the other. Not all at once, I'm fine with breaking it up into sections, but there's a lot that I've never been on and I want to see it all.

Re: It's alive! - 07/07/12 02:29 PM

Ok, here's a first, I think, for Missouri Deer hunters.

I didn't post the entire article, just what I thought were the interesting (changed) parts.

New deer regs benefit hunters
Friday, July 6, 2012
By PAUL&#8200;DAVIS, SEMO&#8200;News Service

Deer hunters in Southeast Missouri will see a few minor regulations changes when the hunting seasons kick in this fall, with most designed to offer more hunting opportunity.

The most notable change will occur during what was known as the December muzzleloader season.

Previously, hunters could only use a muzzleloading firearm during the late season. This year's season, running Dec. 15-25, has been renamed the alternative methods season, with more weapon options available for deer hunters.

Beginning with this year's statewide alternative methods season, hunters will be able to use centerfire pistols, large-caliber airguns, atlatls, bows and crossbows, in addition to muzzleloading firearms, to pursue deer.

Airgunners, an extremely small minority of deer hunters, must use a firearm of .40-caliber or larger, Sumners said. An additional requirement is the airgun must be charged from an external, high compression power source.

"This certainly isn't your Daisy Red Rider type of rifle," Sumners said, noting airguns usually are a hunting tool used in suburban areas.

Atlatls previously were legal only during the archery season.

Finally, for those interested in the managed muzzleloader deer hunt at Mingo National Wildlife Refuge, this year offers a bonus: a second hunt is being offered.

"The primary reason for the second hunt," said Mingo Refuge Manager Ben Mense, "is we have a certain number of deer we have to shoot to maintain our population, and to provide hunters additional opportunity."

The new hunt will allow hunters to take two antlerless deer, Mense said, and will have a quota of 70 hunters.

The first managed hunt, which runs Dec. 1-2, allows drawn hunters to take two deer, but one may be antlered. That hunt has a quota of 150 hunters.

Not really, just have to keep trying til the channel allows us to talk to each other. We're trying to work with an old VHF system and a new 800 mhz system that weren't meant to be used together.

The new 4K cameras are actually beating film now. Film has been surpassed many times over. But, film is still awesome.

HOLY COW! Just got done reading the new thread, when I went to bed at 1600 it was on page 7 and when I got to work it was on page 32! AND the DC was on page 670 this morning, and now its page 684!

Y'all must be using STP to keep your fingers from friction burn!

I use KY Yelly.

I figured, but didn't want to be the one that asked so you wouldn't have to tell. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

It sure beats 10w40! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Like you said, at least someone can get some use out of it, better than just wasting it.

Man I am stoked for the new blade Dan talked about. Hit em upside the head with the blade flat and leave your JYD number on their knoggin. Sounds like a big blade to me!

Re: It's alive! - 07/08/12 10:45 AM

I haven't shot film in probably 7-8 years. I still have a couple film cameras, and I've thought about getting stuff to develop B&W film and a changing bag where I can develop it in my kitchen sink.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: It's alive! - 07/08/12 10:47 AM

It seems like it's harder to find film all the time. Used to Wally World had racks and racks of film, now they're down to just a few rows of hanging displays.
Posted By: rth548

Re: It's alive! - 07/08/12 10:49 AM

I'd special order 100 ft rolls of B&W film if I were to go that route, just load my own film cartridges.

We were out at Mingo the other day and FINALLY saw a Doe and her Fawn. Stayed there for about 10 minutes and I bet Patty snapped 200 pictures. Sure couldn't have done that with a film camera. She probably deleted 95 percent of them.

I've been thinking about what Dan said, I NEED a blade with some reach. My Wakizashi needs to be put back in working order I guess. Only has about a 19 maybe 20 inch blade, but hey it's better than what I got now. Guess I need to measure it and start working on it. Nothing like dispatching Zombies with a blade older than I am!

Mine is a 650. I ran about 50 miles of my ride Thursday on the interstate at 75 mph and over. Even with my big hind end on it, it ran like a champ.

I'd have one if Patty wasn't so set against them. Having an Uncle killed on one so young by someone that didn't like bikes has really tainted her on them. I guess I can't blame her, I might feel the same way if I had lost a really close family member on one.

Re: It's alive! - 07/08/12 04:04 PM

Giving a REAL answer to your question I think from the way Dan talked it is going to be a somewhat large knife, but large can mean different things. It could mean

1. Long like the scizzy
2. thick bladed like the Zilla
3. broad bladed like the Zilla
4. long and broad bladed like nothing we have seen from Dan before.

Overall though, unless he is messing with us, I think it will be a large (relatively long) broad bladed Zombie Decapitating chunk of steel!

Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: It's alive! - 07/08/12 04:07 PM

From what Dan said I don't think you are going to have any problem at all making JYD before Dan releases the knife.

IF he just doodled it up Friday night, he will first have to refine his drawing, then get figure out what to make it out of, then actually prototype it and do all the normal manufacturing processes to it, actually grinding it out, heat treating it, sharpening, handling and then testing, probably several times before he is ready to turn it loose to the Dog Destroyers.

Re: It's alive! - 07/08/12 07:25 PM

Unless Dan has hired a Cray super computer to figure out how to economically lay out a Kuk it probably won't happen. He has said several times that it wastes to much steel due to the unique shape of the blade. BUT he never said he wouldn't do a serpentine blade shape! Kind of like a long shallow recurve. Now THAT would spoil a Zombie's day.

18 inches long, 3/16 inch thick serpentine shaped blade with a fairly sharp point. Yeah Baby!

Re: It's alive! - 07/08/12 07:33 PM

I'm guessing it will be SR101, just because it's a better value for the consumer.

Re: It's alive! - 07/08/12 07:34 PM

SR77 to keep prices down. 14" maximum blade for the same reason. Bringing it in right around at $200~230. Would love SR101, but I think that would put us us more into scizzy country on the price.

Just keep the walnut bags laying around open for those folks who DO NOT know your stuff is YOUR stuff!

Especially for a married couple with smaller children, days is the best shift. Shame someone who isn't married or doesn't have kids won't switch with you. But then again I guess a lot of them want the day shift so they can party at night.

Great for your school system. ours here is lacking in a lot of areas. Even if a "foreigner" is familiar with the English language, many times certain regional "slang" words or terms are not easily understood by someone from a different region of the country, let along a completely different country.

May be old news, but did you guys see this over at BF. Could the "Fairy Dogmother" be a hint?!

My brother has lost his mind!!! . . . . . I thought he was joking. . . . I was wrong! . . . I don't know what he was drinking the other night, but I need to get some real soon!!!

He will be prototyping this week and should realize almost immediately that what he has dreamt up is not possible for the price tag he is aiming at! . . . I think he should call it the "The Fairy Dogmother" because this whole idea is a fantasy! . . .

There really is no need to register over there because there is no way he's gonna pull this project off! . . . My older bro has lost it . . . . His bourbon soaked noodle is no longer operational ! ! !

Let's drink! . . . Better yet. . . . Let's drink what Dan is drinking!

It sounds like Dan has dreamt of releasing the MOAD at an unbelievable price with a free JYD # engraved for the JYD.....

Double cut refers to how the blade is finished. It is bare metal that is sandblasted of sorts.

Figured I'd share this f#+% up here, working on my reg mod last night, should have known better than to do tricky stuff after a long work shift, belt got away from me and ate up my integral guard, had to sand it almost off, have something in mind to fix this, but it's frustrating to be close and do this, oh well, learning experience I guess

Well, we took the grandkids out on my pond fishing today; the older granddaughter caught seven bluegills and missed a nice bass. Then later on after a nice supper, we went down to my "man-cave" and played foosball; they are having a GREAT time! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Thanks! Gonna be a tricky fix, but I think I've figured it out. It was supposed to have a shaped lower guard ( that got messed up) so it looks more like an actual Bowie style. Going to try removing the material in front of the micarta spacer, make a two piece front guard and slide it into place, we'll see

Re: It's alive! - 07/13/12 03:02 PM

I think that is doable, if you've got a sander and a good sharp knife <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> for the final cleanup.

Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: It's alive! - 07/15/12 10:32 AM

Not to bad Jared. Actually Patty has been doing a bit better these last 3 or 4 days. I guess getting her PTH level down and the Vitamin D level up IS helping. But as I've said, she is still going to need the surgery.

I remember back a ways when Patty was so sick and weak she could literally only get out of bed to go to the bathroom and I had to help her then or she would fall. AND there are just the two of us and it was difficult.

Do you have anyone to help you?

Yes, I think the 7-7 1/2 blades are the best all around size. Large enough to do some chopping/batoning and small enough that you can use it for more delicate chores in an emergency.

It shouldnt be about talking to yourself. It should be about. BSing and getting to know our fellow dogs. Besides Skunk is the only one allowed to talk to himself. When he is, just throw a couple of fruit rollups and back away slowly without making direct eye contact.

I go without a shirt as much as I can around the house. I hate having a farmers tan. I used to get really really dark in the summertime, but now it's just so-so. I think it's because I haven't been in the water nearly as much this year as usual.

I've been viewing those tablet computers lately. Quite interesting devices.

Re: It's alive! - 07/19/12 09:46 AM

Like now I mostly use my cell phone for surfing the internet, so I'm thinking that a bigger surf board would be more convenient.

Sleep? I think that is the thing I do at interstate rest stops.

Re: It's alive! - 07/19/12 11:07 AM

I must do it somewhere, cause I sure don't do much of when I go to bed. I can be as sleepy as all get out then when I go to bed, wide awake.

iPad or something else too?

Pros - cons?

I think the Asus tf700 is interesting.

Re: It's alive! - 07/19/12 11:28 AM

iPad is the way to go if you are not tech savvy or even if you are and want everything extremely user friendly.

If you are looking for a non-IOS tablet, Nexus 7 is the only way to go. I got to review one last month and I was blown away.

The Jelly Bean Android system was smooth and as with any droid system can be modified. I prefer Android compared to Apple's IOS because I like the open platform.

Re: It's alive! - 07/19/12 11:37 AM

Asus is using Android 4.0 (ice cream sandwich) I have Android in my cell also. Haven't seen the Nexus 7 yet.

Re: It's alive! - 07/19/12 11:41 AM

Asus makes great products. They make the Nexus 7 too. And at $150 less than the iPad 16gb for the same memory, you would be mistaken to buy an Apple product. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/878214-REG/ASUS_NEXUS7_ASUS_1B16_16GB_Google_Nexus_7_.html

Nexus 7 is the newest droid tablet. I feel great about recommending it to a friend or family.

Dumb question I know, but what are the advantages/ the reason for having a Tablet? Over something like a Kindle/nook
Posted By: Anonymous

Re: It's alive! - 07/19/12 11:47 AM

It is basically a small computer that can be an ebook reader or email or game machine. Having one lets you be a geek.
Posted By: SkunkHunter

Re: It's alive! - 07/19/12 11:49 AM

Patty and I both have laptops. We also have a dedicated desktop computer. The only thing I can think I would use it for is a book reader. Based upon this it probably wouldn't be worthwhile for me to get a tablet, but a reader, maybe.

Re: It's alive! - 07/19/12 11:51 AM

If you need/want a mobile network (4G) GET THE iPad, or wait a few months for the iPad mine that may or may not be released. It will be.

If you are interested in a reader, get a Kindle Fire. It is a great little machine that is easy to look at (for reading at extended periods of time) and does many basic apps like Netflix.

Re: It's alive! - 07/19/12 11:54 AM

Patty has looked at getting me a reader but I'm still on the fence about the whole reader/tablet thing. I can use my laptop to download books. I will probably just use the laptop. For me the reader would probably be a waste of money.

The Fire I have heard of, matter of fact I was looking at the Daughter-in-laws today.

I gave my mother a Kindle a few years ago for xmas. She loves it. She is a book junky and doesn't have to drive to the book store anymore. She gets the ebook before they show up at the store for cheaper now. It took some training to get her to understand the machine, but now she will punch you if you try to take it from her.

Re: It's alive! - 07/19/12 12:03 PM

Kind of the way I thought of it as well. I would probably read more if I didn't have to pay 8-10 dollars for a paperback!

My mom likes the Kindle since she can change the font size. She is old and and it is easier to see large letters. She can read without her glasses.

Re: It's alive! - 07/19/12 12:09 PM

Glad she is reading, it will help keep her going.

Re: It's alive! - 07/19/12 12:16 PM

I am heading to bed. Here are my last thoughts on tablets.

Get the ...

Basic Kindle if you want an ebook reader - $80

Kindle Fire if you want a great reader and movies over wifi - $200

Nexus 7 if you want a decent reader with tons of apps (movies, games, data, heavy stuff) - $250

iPad if you want a decent reader with tons of apps and need cellular coverage. (4G) $400+

Have fun Timo.

Later JJ, thanks for the recommendations. I'll give it some thought. But the used books (1-3 bucks a pop) has their lure as well.

Re: It's alive! - 07/19/12 04:20 PM

So, I have started a new ZDC thread as these two are starting to get on folks nerves because of their unresponsiveness.

IF you want the JYD or BUST thread or the old DC thread opened back up again, just let one of the mods know and your wishes shall be our command.

So On to the Reanimated ZDC!

LONG LIVE THE ZOMBIE DEATH CHAT!
