    Movie Theater DANCING WITH THE STARS (XVIII) - my guilty pleasure

    I worked with Cork Ballas who is Mark Ballas father back in 1984. He would practice six to eight hours a day, six days a week. Ball room dancing is a sport and the dancers are in top shape. I believe Corky was Latin Category World Champ with his wife six or eight times.

    Reaction to a firefight

    Reading this I remember some and not all. I remember freezing the first time and my squad leader shouting shoot and move, I remember being calm and excited afterwards. Sees like the adrenaline kicked in afterwards. I remember cursing and cursing as if there was no other way to express what had...

    "The paleo diet"/ "organic foods"/"metabolic damage"

    I have been involved with nutrition and health care for the past 28 years. Diet fads have been around for ages from the Duke of Salisbury who claimed the only diet for man was ground beef and you should eat at least a pound and a half a day to Dr. Kellogg who claimed humans should only eat...

    "Poser" or "Real Deal" Help me to understand

    I was unaware the gag order was for 75 years. I remember signing something but I thought it was for 20 years. I also agreed not to travel in any communist country for 20 years. As far as the DD214 goes it shows I mustered out of a unit I never served in located in a different country and it has...

    Can anyone ever touch your gun?

    A lot of guys know I shoot and ask to go the range with me. I embrace those opportunities to show the novices correct gun safety. I have an AR15 and a nine millimeter that I have specifically for that purpose. I don't like to watch folks bang a four thousand dollar rifle around but the can drop...

    The 6.8 is still impressing me.

    I was posting from memory and not my notes. The 2450 FPS was out of my 10.5" barrel with a 115gr Nosler CC. Sorry to start up some confusion. At my age no one need rely on their memory. Here is a link to a post on the 6.8 SPC and a 12.5" barrel by Dr. Chris at Wild River Ranch. He has...

    The 6.8 is still impressing me.

    I am running a 12.5 Wilson Arms barrel upper with a Wilson trim hand guard and a Wilson adjustable gas block on my LWRC SBR registered lower. Works like a charm on hogs using my hand loads of 95 Grain TTSX on top of 29.5 grains of RL10 with CCI 450 mag primers. Very accurate at .75 MOA and...

    Stocking a new Gunshop with AR10 and AR15 accessories

    I think it would be a good idea to stock small parts as well. If I need a crush washer I don't want to order it on line and I head out to the store 25 minutes away that stocks small parts. Along the way I pass up three other gun shops that u know don't stock small parts. One of them claims to be...

    I really screwed up

    We fired thousands of rounds in the Army during 67-68 with out any hearing protection as we didn't know anything about hearing protection back then. I do have that ringing in the ears and my hearing is OK but when I shoot now I have to use both ear plugs and and muffs or I do get that ringing...

    Hunting & Fishing Best pig gun?

    Texas pretty much overrun with hogs and the 6.8 SPC is very popular here. Make sure its a SpecII chamber. The 6.8 SPC had many teething problems and the round originally thought of as an alternative for the military to the 556 has become a popular hunting round. My favorites are my M1a Squad...

    Fluted bolt and barrel??

    Fluting a barrel will not do anything for you except making the barrel lighter which could be accomplished by just purchasing a lighter barrel. The old myths that a fluted barrel is more accurate or cools off faster have been debunked by scientific study. A reason that companies like Accuracy...
