  1. If recoil is a primary concern, has she looked at the Walther PK380? Its known for soft recoil. It about the same size as the 709 Slim, but the PK380's recoil is just a bit heavier than a .22, and way less than any of the .380 pocket guns. http://www.handgunsmag.com/featured_handguns/HG_bravenewwalther_200909/index.html
  2. I haven't fired either of those. But, I'd imagine it kicks a little more than the M&P9c, due to the lower weight. It's kicks a little more than a P3AT or LCP.
  3. The 709 is solid. I've only put 200 rnds through mine. It hasn't had a failure of any kind. It's suprisingly accurate for such a small 9mm.
  4. Did you enter into any written contract or agreement? Are you named in the LLC?
  5. I think that's from Reno 911. Check out this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3o71KV80jh8
  6. Anyone? Make an offer before I take it all to the range.
  7. Don't forget the Red Menace! That's just what they want you to do
  8. In manufacturing, unions have far outlived their usefulness. We now live in a global economy. The jobs that manufacturing unions once protected, they now chase outside US borders. The UAW is by far the worst, but examples can be found everywhere in manufacturing. I have less of an issue with trade unions...plumbers, electricians, etc. The still have a place, but I personally don't use union labor when it comes to my house or my business. Isn't a union just an outgrowth of Communism anyway? Redistribution of wealth...everyone gets the same wage...reduced competition among workers...all that stuff?
  9. The EBR ECM is a really good deal. Tuning for optimum combustion is not the same as tuning to meet EPA regs. How often do you get a chance to get a optimum tune from the guy who designed the engine? Plus if you decide to change exhaust later, EBR will reflash the ECM for a different exhaust for $25.
  10. If you call EBR they'll map a Race ECM for the stock exhaust. That's what I have. It runs smoother, stronger, cooler & get better mpg. It's runs fantastic! If you're set on an after market exhaust, I would take a look at the Barker. Best bang for the buck, and there are 2 or 3 sizes of db killers. If you haven't already seen this, it's worth reading. All the 1125 exhaust are compared and dynoed: http://www.americansportbike.com/1125_Exhaust_Test_Text.ZIP
  11. I just got a bunch of .380 rounds. More than I need. All are boxes of 50. Not hollow points. 1 box - Blazer Brass (5202) $20 at Vances 1 box - CCI Blazer (3505) $19 at Vances 1 box - PMC Bronze (380A) $22 at Vances 3 boxes - Remington UMC (L380ACP) $20 at FF & F I'll sell for $2 less than the Vance of FF & F price. Pickup only.
  12. In a box somehwere, I have the Windows 95 installation on 20 or so floppy disks.
  13. It's like a softball arms race. Teams with better bats 'usually' have better hitting. It sucks that bats cost that much, but leagues are using balls with soft cores, you need hot bats to launch them. I have a Miken Freak + that's illegal in some leagues.

  16. Ever stunted? Tipped over? Wrecked?
  17. Here's another http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/V8-bike-blower-Harley-hemi-hot-rod-drag-race-street-pro-/190483092733?pt=US_motorcycles&hash=item2c59ad54fd#ht_500wt_1182 Although, I doubt this could actually be ridden.
  18. I've played for about 10 years. I have my regular league, but I'd play in another if it's not too far away. West or South of Cleveland would be my preference.
  19. There some sweet deals on used bikes now. Get one. The money you save on insurance will prolly pay for the the used bike.
  20. I killed 6 Xmas Ales on Tuesday. Add them to the map.
  21. What a shame. It's not like they were stopping her from making sammiches http://www.comedycentral.com/videos/index.jhtml?videoId=210278&title=its-a-wonderful-chest

    Investing...

    It all depends on your tolerance for risk. Now is not a great time for investors. Real Estate is flat. 'Safe' investments (Savings, CDs, Gov't Bonds) have very low returns right now. Stocks & funds have more upside and also more risk. The 2020, 2030, 2040, etc retirement funds have gotten popular. Maxing your 401k is a good move. I believe $16,500 is the max for 2011.
