    Do not buy or trust a lifeproof case!!!!!!

    Wow. When your case leaks and ruins your phone, I hope you remember those words and eat 'em with a big helping of crow. If it's sold as waterproof, it should BE waterproof. Fucking people who live anywhere else. 1911fan

    Do not buy or trust a lifeproof case!!!!!!

    No rice handy at the beach, though I took the phone out of the case and laid it in the sun for a while. It sat in rice overnight, but this morning it's still gakked. Takes multiple tries to unlock the screen and then it starts randomly dialing people and deleting stuff, so it's off for good...

    Do not buy or trust a lifeproof case!!!!!!

    Yeah, phones were getting a lot smaller until we discovered we could watch porn on them. I'll probably stay with the Apple platform, got about 8G of music on the phone and a bunch of apps. As for waiting til fall, not gonna happen. Phone is used at work a lot, I have no landline, so it's a...

    Do not buy or trust a lifeproof case!!!!!!

    Ironic, your unwavering support of a product that has failed you. As stated above, my case looked normal in every way. Thanks for the 'common sense' crack, I'm not sure why you went on a personal offensive but it made me laugh. 1911fan

    Do not buy or trust a lifeproof case!!!!!!

    I see the attorney for LifeProof has entered the room. Yes, I did test it when I bought it. I had problems with wrinkles in the front half, which they replaced, and tested it too. Both were waterproof. Since the phone had not been out of the case since then, I see no reason for the...

    Do not buy or trust a lifeproof case!!!!!!

    I've had a LifeProof case for my Iphone 5S for about a year. It's advertised as waterproof to two meters, and today it was put to the test when we took the canoe out. I waded into the water to get to the stern of the canoe. I had the phone with me to take pictures of our outing. THE...

    Ebola virus patients are being transported from west Africa to Atlanta

    Meanwhile, another infected doctor has simply hopped a plane and flown himself home, and is just waiting to see if he gets better or dies. Great containment procedure. U.S. doctor isolates himself at home - CNN.com Video 1911fan

    Ebola virus patients are being transported from west Africa to Atlanta

    By which I meant a comfortable bed, A/C, and fluids. The first few/few dozen cases will receive such care, but by the time we're stacking bodies in the hallway like cordwood, it'll be no different than any third world pandemic, with people dying in the streets and huge numbers infected and...

    Opinions on Dillon 550 vs 650

    Agree on that, swaging manually is a PITA. I've got the 550 and the 650. The 550 has been idle a while but, if I can figure out a ball powder for .308, will be running again soon. The 650 does 45 and .223, and did 9mm for a while also. I don't like reloading all that much, so I tend to put it...

    Ebola virus patients are being transported from west Africa to Atlanta

    Potential catastrophe on so many levels. 90% mortality rate in Third World shitholes, and I doubt that if it gets going here we'll be able to stop, cure, or quarantine it. Oh sure, the first reported victims will get first-rate care, but the unreported ones? Once this disease gets a grip...

    Vortex scope

    Yeah, the Vortex thing pops up a lot, lovers and haters. I couldn't be happier with mine; I'm running a Razor on my match gun and a Diamondback on my hotrodded airgun. The airgun ate several scopes due to the different recoil before the Diamondback went on, and it's held up for three or four...

    Building custom buffalo gun

    Yes indeed, rock on! and post pics of build and bullets, this sounds cool as hell. As to why a .90, why not? It's his build, let him build it. Are you going to take a buffalo with it? Not to sidetrack the discussion.... aw hell... What is the minimum caliber for buffalo? Lots of big game...

    Petition to Remington - Produce 260 Brass

    Thanks, I'm aware of these factors. We'll still be closer than one of shooting .308 and the other a .260, though. 1911fan

    Petition to Remington - Produce 260 Brass

    Good idea. I've been looking at building two .260s, so the wife and I will have the same dope. 1911fan

    Was over 5500 acres yesterday morning. I found a website with great fire maps but didn't save it, dammit. The fire started in Mills Canyon with a structure fire and grew from 5 to 80 to 500 to over 2000 acres in a few hours. It's west to Chumstick and was across the 5200 road just north of...

    Rifle Scopes Assuming they are the same price, which scope?

    Interesting read on EU warranty, thanks. Answers what I considered to be a legitimate question. Vortex, at the ten-year mark, will still repair or replace the scope. 1911fan
