Not too long ago I was at the line checking out at a store, and when she was making change I noticed the clerk looking intently at her video screen. When I got my stuff I took a look at the screen, which was not facing me, and saw the screen had pictures of money on it, showing her pictorially how ...

I routinely offer people exact change, in the sense of $20.63 for a $14.63 charge, only to have them refuse the coinage. The other day I was in a local gun store, and the bill was $11 and change. I handed the clerk a twenty, a single and appropriate coinage. She held up the bills and said, "Sir...

I drove commercially for 6 months, and my two trips to New Jersey were a large part of the reason I quit. My father drove for 35 years and he loved it. I did three tours in Iraq as a "Motor Transport Operator", and I would rather do ten more than to drive commercially for even a few months...

Notice that there are at least two references to "MiniTru" and one of the creators' name is Winston O'Brien.

Winston worked at MiniTru, and O'Brien was his supervisor and, eventually, his interrogator.

This has to be some sort of ironic humor, right?

It was much accurater than the Vaquero. Hey Otto....PLEASE Don't take this the wrong way as I like your way of putting things "more better" than my old favorite sayin'....mind if I use it? :wink: Stump PS - Keep shooting those 357's and the 45's...they're the last two revolver cartridges ...

The way he has been treated here has been disgraceful and disgusting. I imagine many of his victims feel the same way. I wonder if those who have baited him and picked fights with him would treat their own fathers, uncles, grand fathers, that way? I think they probably would and that makes me ill. ...

I only read a small percentage of the threads here, so it is possible I have missed it, but, for all the talk about how knowledgeable Mr. Murbach is, I have never read one of his posts in which any actual information was relayed. He is constantly expressing his annoyance with the questions of others...

if I could successfully conceal a N frame I wouldn't think twice about a .357, I'd be carrying .44 Spl. .45 Colt even better. How does a 4" N-frame compare to a 1911, for example? The only N-frame I have ever seen up close is a 29 Classic at the local gun store. I was surprised at the fact tha...

Otto

I know I said I was considering the 27 for concealed carry, but if I were more serious about that I would look at a used model 36, a new M&P 360, or a Ruger SP101. I can't see myself shooting .357's though.

Otto

I think the muzzle blast actually make the recoil feel worse than it is. Joe Not the same as the satisfying boom from the .45 :wink: . Otto what is the bbl length on your 45 Vaquero? The one I have now is 7 1/2" and it handles heavy loads very well with the longer bore. I had a Bisley with a 4...

You darn kids with your rock-and-roll, boogie-woogie devil music are going to ruin this country!

The .357 Mag has recoil when shot from a wheel gun ...... :o :shock: Yeah, exactly my thought. When I compare the momentum of the two bullets, they are roughly equivalent. If anything the .45 should have slightly more. I wish I had a chronograph. Seriously although the 357 has a sharper recoil it's...

I am pondering the purchase of a DA revolver, possibly for concealed carry. I am leaning toward a .357, such as a 4" model 27 or 28. I realize an "N" frame may be a bit on the large size. I have a 6-1/2" New Model Blackhawk I bought several years ago. I had put a handful of .38's...

Now, who said anything about a car sitting 6 months(extended period of time idle)? I didn't mean literally sitting idle, although those are the words I typed. I basically meant what you indicated with your new car: it is not driven very much. Most cars will cover 3000 miles in 2 to 4 months, so the...

With the new Nissan (Oil/filter change every 6 months even if you put on say 2000 easy miles?) Manual says (whatever comes first)3000miles OR 6 months otherwise good bye warranty!

From a Gunbroker ad: Smith & Wesson Model 28 Six-inch .357 Magnum Barrel. BULGED, about two-inches from the breach end. Other than the BULGE, this barrel is in pretty good condition. Matte blue finish with sandblasted non-glare rib. There are a couple of scars on the front sight ramp. Good barre...

I am left-handed, and it always has seemed to me that the traditional configuration works better for me than it should for a right-hander. Loading in the manner of a right-handed shooter seems very awkward to me. Obviously that is partially due to unfamiliarity, but still.

Speaking personally, I don't own any because I don't have much use for one, and because where I am the laws are skewed against handguns. If I lived in a CCW state I'd have a handgun and I'd carry it, but since I can only defend myself at home I can manage with what I have. Got a buddy that said it ...

Otto: sounds like your father applied for and/or had a service connected disability? That’s the key: service-connected disbaility opens the door and without it is very hard to get in at times. Nope, he never had had any contact with the VA, and had no service-connected disability. I think he has tw...

"I don't really see how dry firing could hurt a centerfire..." You know, I used to wonder about the same thing... I always thought that actual shooting would be much tougher on the guns than dry firing. That question was once posed to the resident gunsmith/expert on RugerForum, and he rep...

yes jeepnik...it was Douglas MacArthur...he ordered his cavalry to burn them out that was in Washington DC in 1921 as i recall my history. Major Patton was there, too.

A good friend of mine was at the house a while back. We were coon pawing all my guns before we got down to serious drinking and telling war stories. He pulled out one of my Colt's SAA and asked "what was special about these old relics". I told him if you have to ask you won't understand a...

Can't give you an accurate technical answer, but I used to dry-fire mine some (not like I do a Ruger revolver), with no ill effects. Performing a function check involves dry-firing, but that is not something one does hundreds of times. EDIT Actually, now that I have thought about it, I recall that o...

I know there are alot of veterans here: do VA benefits satisfy the requirements of the new mandatory health insurance nonsense?

Having no specific criteria, I would have to say some sort of .357, prolly in a double-action. I guess I should get one.

I was under the impression it had to do with the consumption of limes by sailors and mariners to prevent scurvy, during a period when Britain ruled the seas. Along with large portions of the land.

So was it the first bullet that was faster, or did the second one fired pass the first on the way to the victim? :lol: They did say, but I wasn't really paying attention at first. It was one of those deals where you hear something in the background, and a minute later you go "wait... what?"

I am computerologically challenged, but have wondered the same thing. I am just speculating that something tracks the date and time you view a thread, comparing that to the date/time of the most recent post.

I have noticed that some sites know what threads I have viewed, even if I don't log in.
