Went to the hospital this morning and got all the hardware removed, and got to keep it. Three weeks ahead of schedule. I need some ideas of things to do with the screws and plate. I'll post pics of the stuff later. Thanks for the support from everybody. Patrick

My son limped his ass out into the woods with me for the opening day of youth season and dropped his first deer. Proud as shit of him after all he's been trough this year. Patrick

Went to the bone doc today and were told to get rid of the brace and start walking. No walker, no chair, get your ass up and go. That's pretty much all the prompting he needed. Surgery to remove plate and screws is scheduled for Dec 21 and will be out patient. Thanks for all the prayers guys...

Just picked up my new hunting rig today. Got the Savage light weight in a 7-08. Loaded some 120 Barnes and going to see how it shoots in the morning. Initial impressions are very good. Smooth bolt and nicer wood than I thought it would have. Still think a nice Kevlar would have been better...

After two weeks of therapy he has reached his flex goal of 90 degree bend and is walking using a walker for balance assistance. He has drive I can only wish for. He wants out of the wheel chair more than anything in the world. I've said it before but he is a tough kid and I'm proud to be his...

Took my boy for his two week checkup after surgery this morning. Doctor said that his bone is mending ahead of schedule. He also said that he could start putting weight back on it and start walking a little bit with a brace on. The brace is just for support because of the loss of muscle mass...

Took the doctor about 5 hours to get everything squared away, but he was able to put my kids leg back together with out any external equipment! One plate down the outside of the femur with eight screws holding everything together. He will be able to start putting weight on it on Sun. with the...

My six year old son was injured in a crash on Sunday. We are in Batson Childrens Hospital in Jackson. Which is an awesome place to be if you need it. His right femur was broken, the doctors have used the word "powder" a couple of times, which I could have done without. Anywho any kind of good...

Got a CZ550 in 308 to try my hand at the state police sniper comp next spring. Have to use factory ammo so my 260 is not an option. The rifle is shooting better than I hoped. It's staying around 3/4 MOA with less than 200 rds down range so far. Cold bore is about 1/2 inch out and consistant...

My son and his first victim. I got him the Savage 22 for his 6th birthday and he's been practicing dry firing in preperation for the weekend at Papaw's. I could even hear him whispering "front sight, squeeze". I think he's gonna be a good student.[/img]

This thing was able to put a razor edge on everything from my Benchmade pocket knife to a 11" carving knife. It's the coolest thing I have ever used. I have never been able to hold a bevel using a stone and this thing leaves a better than factory edge. You guys should try it. Patrick...

Don't really have time today to do this but I know some of you guys do. I would like to start a thread dedicated to finding stories about cops that did something good. There seems to be a "let's slam cops" thing going on around here lately. It wasn't like this when I first joined and it's...

http://www.wapt.com/news/27292003/detail.html Worked with Mr. Jimmy for 11 years. Came to my department after retiring as Chief of Police in Vicksburg Ms. Couldn't get him to take a Sgts. test for all the money in the world. He said he'd "been there done that" all he wanted was his motor and...

Just thought I'd post a picture of my newest plane, a Parkzone P-47 that I'm repainting. This stuff is like crack, and the best part is I can fly in my back yard, the neigbors frown on shooting in the backyard. Patrick [/img]

Fellow officer on my shift spotted the turd who has been trolling for kids in town. Observed him in three different subdivisions in an hour. Made stop. Got video and stills of the guy to take to the girls that he had attempted to get in his car and got positive ID from all. Locked up on...

Just got this yesterday and had a chance to shoot this morning. No FTF except for 2 related to bad mag. Great pistol can't wait for the Mil-Tac grips I ordered to get here. Had to swap out grips from my Colt, didn't really like the factory grips. Now to decide what color(s) for Wally to...

Bought a Ruger 556 from a guy who is a regular at the Mickey D's where is get my morning coffe when I go on duty. He bought it 3 months ago and put a RRA match trigger in it. The guy is a nice guy but he has more money than sense. He struck up a conversation with me because he remembered that...

Work at a local gun shop as a side job to suppert my gun habit. We have a regular customer is a vintage gun nut like me. A couple of months ago we were talking about rifles we would like to have but don't, his list was much shorter than mine. I mentioned how much I liked Savage 99's and would...

Working up a load using new bullet and new powder at the same time can suck at times. Other time you get lucky. Trying out a new bullet, Hornady 123gr and new powder, R17, in my Savage 260. Working up in .5gr steps it started at around .75in and got down to .296 at 43gr. Opened back up over...
