I got mine! One thing you should know about them is that there has been a quality control problem with some of them, resulting in light strikes with the firing pin. When I got mine, nine if the first six rounds would fire. It seemed like it was so tightly screwed down that the firing pin wasn’t...
I got to go to the AAT range in Norman twice during my fall break and again yesterday. Aside from just plinking for fun, I got a new Heritage Barkeep that I’m breaking in. It’s a lot of fun to shoot.
I taught martial arts for many years. If a perp gets with arm‘s length of you, it‘s not hard to disarm him faster than he can react. Now, a knife is a different story. Try to disarm someone with a knife and you are going to get cut.
I bought a Heritage Barkeep yesterday. Took it to the range today, but it had a bunch of FTFs. I seems to be put together so tightly that the hammer binds up and doesn‘t strike the firing pin hard enough. Very frustrating. I brought it back home and oiled it up, then cycled it a few hundred...
Yes, that’s correct. CRT is part of the Frankfurt School’s Critical Theory, It was devised by a bunch of communist Jews in Germany. I don‘t mean that to sound anti-Semitic, but it’s true. Not all Jews are communists, but there have been a bunch who were behind the Russian Revolution in 1917 and...
SpaceX is like the Wright Brothers. They are testing essentially disposable spacecraft to perfect things that have never been tried before. This is the coolest thing since the heady days of 1950s aviation when they built prototypes to see what they can do. The whole mindset is different from...
My pocket pistol is a Phoenix HP-22. It’s small and very inexpensive. I have put thousands of rounds through it with no jams, FTF, FTE, etc. A lot of people critique them for having two safeties, but it doesn’t bother me. I train with it and it’s easy to develop a technique to hit both safeties...
Just stand by. You can scoff all you want. I’m a former intel guy and I have a master’s in history. I’m not one to accept things like this without some careful study and investigation. I have seen enough, having studied all the 4000-plus messages, that it’s a legitimate operation. Most people...
Just a follow-up to this thread. When we got our first round of Covid stimulus checks, I went to Atwood’s and bought the RIA 410 to add to the collection. The specs on this one are almost identical to the 12-gauge. The lack of recoil makes this one a lot more fun to shoot. Here’s the pic from...
Shortly after the BLM riots began in Milwaukee, I was walking in Sooner Mall in Norman with my wife. As usual there were a handful of us older people doing fitness walking at that time of day. We were walking behind a smallish woman who had some kind of disability and maybe some osteoporosis, as...
i hope there might be a “legal beagle” here who could provide some knowledgeable advice. My polling place for voting is not in a school, church, or other place where it would be illegal to carry a concealed firearm. Is it legal to carry there? This is the first election since I got my CCW...
No, they got rid of it several years ago. I was sad to see it go. They used to give you a coupon for a free Coke when you paid the toll. I used to wonder how travelers felt traveling south on the Delmarva Peninsula from Jersey and N.Y. The price of the toll was $12.00 one-way.
Yep, there are actually two tunnel for ships to pass over. Nothing like driving under an aircraft carrier or a big tanker. The whole bridge is 17 miles long. This is just part of it.
