    Maggie’s Why wait til bedtime?

    This will be funny at some point in the future. Actually, I'm kinda finding it funny right now. Once had my son at a playground, he was about 4 or 5 at the time. He climbed the ladder for the slide, stopped at the top and had this weird look on his face, then he puked all down the slide. Next...

    Anyone want to educate themselves?

    Lots of studies use 21 as the age line, and I have seen some use 25 (might be what you also referred to). If you use either 21 or 25, then how many people in our military would then be considered part of their defined group of "children"???

    Post your funniest range story...

    A very long time ago, maybe very early 1970s, when I was about 12 years old, my dad granted me the use of his Red Ryder. He got it when he was around 10 from his aunt, and I still have it today. We lived in a suburban North NJ town that had a very large cemetery right up the block from me, and...

    Movie Theater Frontier on Netflix

    Yes.....this! I have been very well dressed for some hunting trips and after a few hours I get so cold that my fingers don't work well anymore. Usually evident by my not being able to zip my zipper on my pants back up, so I just leave it. And that is after a few hours in temps that are still...

    Maggie’s amusing pic

    I bought a S&W Sigma in .40 when they first came out for that exact reason. That is the one that Smith lost the lawsuit for, and yes, most parts are interchangeable. Honestly don't shoot it much though, but that may be changing in the near future.

    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 Sgt. Reckless

    That was a good little clip, thanks for posting.

    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...
