Gunsamerica

There may me more available?
My P30 40 LEM V2, with V1 springs, has a DOA pull of 4.4 lbs.
I'm going to do the same thing to the P2000 357 V2 LEM when she gets here.
It has a very light and long pre-travel to a distinct wall.
And then a SA like crisp, clean, break.
Very nice for a no safety carry gun IMHO.
You would like it.

[Barth]

Well done mate. Glad to see that you are enjoying your HK's. Next one should be an HK P7M8.

Cheers

Thanks,
I really need to wait a while before I buy anything else.
I really mean it this time - LOL!

Had to immediately order V1 springs, Big Dot NS, a third mag and Hogue grips for the P2000 357.
Fortunately I already have an ammo can full of 357 Sig ammo.

I bet I would! I would also like having the money to get it! It's now on my wish list. Thanks!

The new 2013 Taco's arrive mid September.
There will be thousands for sure.
But there's a single Black 4x4 with my name on it (Delivery: Friday September 14, 2012)
Woo Hoo!

Having lived much of my life in snow and mountain country where 4wd is a natural, I'm just curious why it would be useful in Florida?

Always trying to learn new things.

[QuercusMax]

A friend of mine keeps hearing about all those boating accidents that gun owners seem to have, and thinks it's really strange - why would they take all their guns out on a boat????

Then he gets the idea of taking a big magnet out in the lake.

I tried to explain, but some people don't get it.

Or maybe there really ARE a lot of guns out there on the bottom????

The economy is so bad that I got a pre-declined credit card in the mail.

It's so bad, I ordered a burger at McDonald's and the kid behind the counter asked, "Can you afford fries with that?"

The economy is so bad that CEO's are now playing miniature golf.

The economy is so bad if the bank returns your check marked "Insufficient Funds," you call them and ask if they meant you or them.

The economy is so bad Hot Wheels and Matchbox stocks are trading higher than GM.

The economy is so bad McDonald's is selling the 1/4 ouncer.

The economy is so bad parents in Beverly Hills fired their nannies and learned their children's names.

The economy is so bad a truckload of Americans was caught sneaking into Mexico .

The economy is so bad **** Cheney took his stockbroker hunting.

The economy is so bad Motel Six won't leave the light on anymore.

The economy is so bad the Mafia is laying off judges.

The economy is so bad Exxon-Mobil laid off 25 Congressmen..

Congress says they are looking into this Bernard Madoff scandal. Oh Great!! The guy who made $50 Billion disappear is being investigated by the people who made $1.5 Trillion disappear!

And, finally...
I was so depressed last night thinking about the economy, wars, jobs, my savings, Social Security, retirement funds, etc., I called the Suicide Lifeline. I got a call center in Pakistan , and when I told them I was suicidal, they got all excited, and asked if I could drive a truck.

What'd you do over the week-end?

My son had bought two discover rides in helicopters, so we rode the Harleys over to Payne field in Everett, next to Boeing, and went flying in this little yellow bird.
What a trip ! We went up separately,(since it's a two seater), and we were given the controls for a short time. I actually felt like I was in control,...for a second or two. Neither of us could hover very well. Sure looks easy from the ground, LOL.

[wyntrout]

Dang, but that's a tiny helicopter! It must have been fun. I've never gotten to ride in one that small. I see those tiny Robinsons flying by once in a while here... usually between us and the river just to the north. I think those used to be kits and you had to build at least a major part yourself.

On 4WD or AWD... I have my 4th AWD vehicle and the largest, a 2005 GMC Savana Passenger Van. I've had two Ford Aerostars with AWD 1990 since they came out until early 2005 when I sold the last after getting the GMC. I bought a US version of the Audi 4000 Quattro and brought it back with me in 1986 when I returned from Germany. It didn't have ABS or limited slip differential and you could lock up the differentials for really bad conditions, but it was a strain on the tires and transmission on dry pavement. A technician left the thing locked up like that after service and I knew right away as I backed out of the parking place.

AWD is great in rain, snow, and on the beaches here in Florida. I like having all wheels pulling and pushing me through curves in the wet or snow. I have played around whenever possible in parking lots or empty roads in snow and slippery stuff for practice AND FUN! I've played around in loose sand about 2 ft or so deep at the beach and was definitely afraid to stop... had to really plan to stay clear of people walking into my path.

I can remember the SEGrin on my face as I pulled into the passing lane on a hill to get around another Aerostar that was a slipping and a sliding going up a hill in the slush in Maine. My van was steady as it could be.

Our 5.7 Hemi, R/T 4X4...

With effort, it will do a four wheel burnout.

Really its the wife's car, I'd get in way too much trouble driving that daily.

[Bawanna]

Just looking around and I noticed that on October 8th, we have 100 members with birthdays. That was one busy day at the maternity ward I gotta tell ya.

Wowza.

Jocko, your in charge of the birthday cards this year weren't ya. Might want to get a head start for the 8th. Just wishin.

[OldLincoln]

Hey Jimbar.... is that antenna sticking up for the Helo-Fyler remote control?

[Bawanna]

Now that would be scary wouldn't it. Ok sir climb in and strap up. I'll just put fresh batteries in my controller here and you both can go up at once. Enjoy.

Dude, fire up the scooters we're cutting a trail the heck out of here.
