    Movie Theater Frontier on Netflix

    I liked the early episodes, but like a lot of these serial type shows, they just get a bit too far out with some stuff for me. I like the historical aspect, and how throughout time there are always people finding ways to make bank on whatever situation, but adding all the personal soap-opera...

    Movie Theater After some good Vietnam audio books or ebooks recommendations

    Could not agree more with these two choices. I've mention them a few times in similar threads. As a little extra info, the author, Chief Watson, ran the UDT-SeAL Museum in Fort Pierce Florida until he passed a few years ago. I most enthusiastically recommend a visit there if you are ever in...

    Maggie’s Get Big Dick

    I played with "Monkey Division" guns and helmets and stuff. Thought it was the coolest ever. We'd make like my buddy's Bilco doors to his basement was the front of our landing craft, and throw them open and invade the back yard. Also had one of those "Agent Zero M" radio-machine guns...

    Would black colour gears like mat, bags etc a nightmare shooting during the day time not in winter

    Completely agree, and you don't have to be in Texas. While shooting the NJ Service Rifle State Match a bunch of years ago, it got up to upper 90s to low 100s that day. I have a Creedmore mat, that one that folds up in thirds. Laid that thing down and after a while in the sun, the rubberized...

    Super Fast Handgun Shooting

    Bringing back so old memories here. Another fast shooter was a guy named Joe Walsh. He was a Sargent with the local county sheriff office, and they used to use the range where I shot bullseye for their qualification and some other stuff. So one day he was there trying to re-break his own...

    Super Fast Handgun Shooting

    A few decades ago I went to a big sportsmen's show at the Javits Center in NYC. Really big show, with all the big name gun companies there and if you've never been there, that place is HUGE. I remember Colt was making a big deal about their just-released Delta Elite in 10mm, just to give a...

    Maggie’s What is your million dollar idea?....

    How about devising a way to get the tires on very large aircraft spinning at a speed matching ground speed just before they land? No more burnt rubber when they first make contact, and those tires should last much much longer if they aren't getting so ripped up with each landing. Tire...

    Maggie’s Dad Jokes!

    A good one my 14 year old nephew told at Thanksgiving a few years back: We went on a school trip last week. The trip was to a zoo, but they only had one animal, and it was a dog. It was a Shih Tzu.

    Maggie’s Truck help true mpg

    Completely agree. Almost every guy I know says they get 20+ mpg with their truck, but all rely on the computer for that number. And winter time idling to warm it up (along with the remote starter) kills mileage for me this time of year.

    Maggie’s Truck help true mpg

    I have a 2002 Silverado extra cab with the smaller 4.8 V-8, and 3.73 gearing. I'm one of those people that keeps a book on my vehicles. Bought this truck in 2002 with 10,800 miles on it, and it now has over 240,000. I make an entry with literally every time I fill the tank. Also note oil...

    Movie Theater Bird Box

    I watched it last night, and have to agree with the consensus here that the ending left a bit to be desired. Way too many loose ends for me, and while I can suspend my belief in reality for shows like James Bond, I had a harder time with this. You know the big name actors/actresses will last...

    What's the most stupid thing you've been told?

    I can remember once at our state range, on the 200 yard line, a guy with his GF is a few benches over shooting an AR. Eventually, he pulls out an 870 and starts launching slugs downrange. I can see and hear them slamming into the railroad ties on the berm in front of the pits. I asked him...

    Maggie’s And Then There Were None

    When I was in 7th grade, my Social Studies teacher was in his 70s, and in his last year of teaching as they were making him retire. Mr. Bradford was a WW1 vet, and supposedly had a steel plate in his head. We were not very respectful of him as he was old, and not as mentally sharp as the other...

    Is tumbling with stainless really what its claimed to be?

    I experimented with using all kinds of cheap/inexpensive media from various sources. Tried crushed walnut shells and different sizes of corn cob from the pet stores, and none really worked well. Larger size corn cob (trying not to have pieces stuck in flash holes) worked well for .38 and .45...

    Movie Theater Anyone Read A Good NON-Fiction Book Lately?

    I think I wrote these up in another thread here, but anyway, here's a few: Rogue Warrior, This was his first and the best of his books IMO. Point Man, story of a seal in VietNam, probably my favorite Marine Sniper, if you're here and you haven't read this, you should Feet Wet, stories from a...

    Best Way to Bore Sight Before Going to the Range?

    Not sure if I was unclear, but I meant actually firing at 50 yards being almost dead on at 200. So get yourself bore sighted, and then set up a target at 50 yards for actual live fire. A couple shots should get you within an inch or so, then you can go out to 200 yards and be almost dead on...

    Best Way to Bore Sight Before Going to the Range?

    I understand and agree with the sentiment that you don't want your neighbors to know you have firearms. I'm the same way. For me, I used to set my rifles up in the cleaning cradle (tipton), place it on my table, remove the bolt, and point it out the front window. Then pick something down the...
