    Sidearms & Scatterguns Kimber 1911's

    I don't think a Kimber should be called a 1911, it doesn't adhere to John Brownings design. It has been modified, has an external extractor that is known to break if you have a hot load. While they are an extremely accurate and well built pistol, I never saw a 1911 with an external extractor...

    That was about $2500 built all told. The flight camera is a Sony Super HAD 2 700TVL 3.7mm The passenger camera is a GP Black 3, used for 12mpx stills or 1080p video. Much more na tural than the Hero2, which was good for eye candy but not as realistic.

    Nope, quadracopter with a camera Gimble on it... The center and most right one are mine.. This is what we were filming when that photo was shot. This is one I did after a friend passed away, I think I will always remember her by this photo now.

    That's my lil one, have had to fight tooth and nail over the years just for my visitation but finally came a point where custody had to switch so she is with me now. I love editing them, just a lot of fun, the flying is everything but making movies is JUST as fun so the two go hand in hand...

    eh retired, too expensive, like shooting - the amount of travel that was required burned me out.

    Movie Theater Sons of Guns/Quad with gun

    I'd be willing to bet they shot down from a crane and not from the aerial vehicle, it's HIGHLY illegal given all that is in the news about the FAA losing the fight against commercial drones. (Yes I'm aware they are appealing it but the genie is out of the bottle now)

    "Workout myths"

    I teach Shotokan Karate 2-4 nights a week. I work out doing this, and the more I work out the better I feel, the bigger my grocery bill goes. Your body knows what it needs. You will eat, if you eat well, what you need to provide for those workouts. Your body is your best doctor, listen to it...

    Please Heed this warning: Get Your Tetanus Shot!!

    Whacked my thumb nearly off on my radio control prop......ended up in the ER just for the tetanus shot, despite being a plastic prop I knew it was deep, into the cartlidge. They splayed me open, cleaned it, pain med, numbing meds, shot, stitches and $2200 later.......holy crap. Insurance only...

    Movie Theater Sons of Guns/Quad with gun

    Huge difference between ground mounted and airborne sysems though. John Deere and the likes are GPS operated and worst case they drive into a ditch or a house. A drone with a known defective flight controller, on 2.4ghz LOL - worst case is that it flies off 2-3 miles and randomly starts...

    Rule #2 in FPV - NEVER BUT NEVER fly THROUGH a GoPro, always have a primary CCTV cam and switch TO the GoPro to aim, GoPro is about as unreliable on Video out as the Flight Controller in question. BUT NO, they are going to fly through the GoPro. IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!

    Movie Theater Sons of Guns/Quad with gun

    As a lot of you know I'm into the FPV scene, aka "Drones"........ I'm watching the new season of Suns of Guns and they show a quadracopter and want to make an anti-IED quadracopter.. The flight controller they were using has a NASTY habit of just up and flying off on it's own, google "NAZA Fly...

    Missing 777

    I think this guy has the most plausable theory to date. Whether it was from a LiPo battery as that UPS fire was in Dubai a few years ago, or whe ther it was a tire blown on take off - this guy knows his stuff and so far, even the US Military is looking where he said...

    Missing 777

    Regardless of what happened to the aircraft it doesn't look like it made it. Reddit posted maps and it looks like they found it there, heading towards India floating just under the water Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk and Siri, just in case it doesn't make sense.

    Semi Auto Rifle Lubricants

    The bolts on my 700 would slide backwith a pinky and everybody that ever shot that rifle commented how smooth it was. Miliech is awesome on everything! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk and Siri, just in case it doesn't make sense.

    Movie Theater Dude, you're screwed

    You have to know that a lot of that is staged.......it's reality TV! IT's still good entertainment. The British SAS guy that went into the glacier south of Anchoragte earned my respect, he did it all right - been there, done that. I know how hard it is moving through that crap, especially...
