Still here. We are on borrowed time now.

Anthony and I were talking about this last weekend. Given the monthly cost you all have paid out of pocket, it has been very generous of you to have it going this long. Thank you to all who have kept CR going.
This forum has been where I have met some of my closest friends. The exchanges here have been some of the greatest head butting contests, as well as lessons learned. Where will we go to ask about heating and cooling, how to wire up a gadget, buy stock or other investments, complain and go on and on about politics, and get barracks legal advice? I will miss the raw ridicule and abundance of hurt feelings. I will miss Doc's simple wisdom and exemplary why of living expressed on these pages. CR has been a place of learning. You could always count on someone posting something you would not have come across, and learning about it. I could care less about Hummers doing wheelies, but now I know. I could not fathom butt fucking a midget stripper, while fisting her as she smokes meth and jerks off a puppy. But, Not Brian would have a story to tell about it.
As these pages fade from access, I can only hope the archives are saved for reference some time in the future. Best of luck to all of you. It's been a fun ride.

Great time to add a 500 gal propane tank, 22K generator and propane heat to this new garage.
Edit:
Only $300 more to go to a 25K
Heater:

Anthony might know a little about it. We have it for the Mustang. I swapped a touch screen radio into it and I know he had to use it for a bunch of things.
Good to know. I know he is busy and may reach out.
I have done a fair amount on my Taurus. What are you trying to do?There are so many options out there for the F150. I don't know the names of all of them. I know there is Bambi mode, screen settings within Sync and a few other things. Would like to change up and add a few settings.

Anyone here used this to change settings in their vehicle? I have the reader. There are a few settings I would like changed from factory. Anyone here worked with this before?

I'm a fan of a 410. Have any of you tried to buy ammo for one in the last year, and been successful?
I have a hard time getting on board with a judge, or revolvers in general. Any time I see newer people shooting with a trigger pull of 4+ lbs, they tend to not enjoy shooting the gun. Many ladies don't like the hard trigger pull. Revolvers are going to be in that range, with the judge being 3.5lbs in single action. It would take some repetition, training, to create the habit of cocking the hammer and engaging the target effectively. I think when we are talking a SAHM situation, the comfort level and repetition of motor skill would be hard to comfortably say is there, if shooting is not something she is going to do from time to time. And, if she was going to do it from time to time, than other platforms than a revolver would prove more ability, simply on capacity alone.

I would put that on a Concept 2 rower. Only piece I'm missing, to what I want at the house. Then it becomes the gift that keeps on giving. LOL

When picking home defense, always take into consideration your style of home. If a shot misees it's intended target, where is it going?
I haven't kept up with bullet technology the past 5 years but .223 slowed down quicker than 9mm did when going through walls. If this still holds true I'd be looking at an AR in 223/556 over a 9mm.
.22 goes through 3 layers of dry wall.
-
What is inexpensive and reliable? To me, a $600 AR chambered in 9mm with a 8" barrel seems functional.

Throw one of these one it and be done.

Rural king sells 33 round knock off Glock mags for these @ $15 each.
9mm ammo pricing sucks still, but it is out there.
She needs to be the one to go shoot several variants of firearms in a manner to simulate engaging bad guys. Then, she can say what was effective and comfortable for her. Us suggesting a gun for her is like us thinking we know what tampon will be comfortable for her.
EDIT:
Rick and Jerrodh get it.

This is likely my best deal I'm going to target for BF. I would buy $1600 in Cabelas gift cards from Kroger and get $1 per gallon for 35 gallons, and still have another .60 off per gallon for another 35 gallons. Roughly, another $50 in savings from money I know will be spent at the pump.

RK sells an off brand of Glock mags. They have the 33 round ones with metal along the top where the follower rests, for $16, just like the $42 Glock mags. I have had zero issues with them with AR9's.
-
THIS is where I have obtained some ammo from.
Nice quality. Not the best priced, but usually available.
KillJoy
I beat them up pretty good back in the day.
1000 of 9mm shipped for $180
200 rounds of Hornady 6.5 CM for $145
1000 rounds 5.56 for $325 shipped
I’m ready to see that pricing again.
-
I’m always on the lookout for 556, nine mill, and 22. I won’t buy any less than 1000 but the pricing is still outrageous. The lowest I have seen was nine mill going for 349 for 1000 rounds. Taxing chipping still had it up to 400, so that’s not a good deal. Emma with something I just keep an ion but don’t pull the trigger until it’s worthwhile. For me, nine mill is going to have to be under 250 or I’ll start doing my own reloading.
There aren’t any particular items that I need right now, but CR has always done a great job of posting deals that may not be on my radar.
-
You guys always find some great deals. I'm looking to stimulate the economy with some no kids money. I need a two seat tree stand and would love to see a company blowout some ammo deals.
Post up those deals.

I do not need the crowd to agree with me, for I do not agree with what the crowd does.
I can appreciate all the law exposure you have had, and your acceptance to the processes within it. It's unfortunate that it seems to leave you blind or unable to relate with the common folks, or the "lays". While you are on your legal pedestal with your view of what most Americans don't see or understand, it seems to escape you that you could bridge that gap. Reread what you wrote above. You could have summarized with, research, research with research about all the research. So, research proves it be right. We have a legal system that waivers a lot. As recently as the 1970's the Supreme Court ruled the death penalty was cruel and unusual punishment. But here we are, still doing it in 36 states, even though 16 state still won't do it. We have federal laws and state laws conflicting with each other far too often. Citizens have just come to accept that there are too many laws and too frequent of change in them to stay informed of them all. Here is where you could be of help, Kerry. But, you do not. You are condescending to the "lays" for not being in agreeance and buying in to what you have. Like most Americans, you would benefit from learning more about the Constitution and reading it. You are a perfect example of why so many people dislike those within the legal system.
-
I have to ask the same question from the other side, Kerry. Can you say with certainty that is not how they intended for the meaning to be understood?
The only reason I emphasis what I have to so that we see it for what it is. I've not said I'm for, or against the requirement for CCW or the processes of buying a gun. We have to see infringements for what they are. If we are willing to over look them, at what point would we say "Hey, now that is too much"?
Now I will add my opinion.
If we are going to bend the Second Amendment in today's world, we have to be willing to violate HIPPA. Or, at least cross reference OARRS - Ohio Automated Rx Reporting System, with the process of firearms purchase and CCW process. Is that too far? Now, have your rights been violated? Where is the line? What prescriptions are ok and which ones are red flags? That is a nightmare topic with many levels to debate. The vast majority of events that stimulate people wanting more restrictions for gun owners, come from people with a history of medications for mental health issues. But we can't violate their rights, right?
Let's peal these layers back for the sake of discussion before addressing other factors.
-
Can you legally conceal carry in Ohio without completing the CCW process or being a LEO?

Kerry, you have now given a baseline allowing people to share in your perspective. If you have talked about any of this before, I have not read it. It would seem your view point is being aware of operating within what the laws say and advising of that. Where as, many who frequently handle fire arms, employing these tools in a wide verity of ways, run into more and more restriction in use because of the problems cause by so many others. While most gun owners surely know the do's and don't of what they can do with a firearm, the ongoing additions and debates stack up frustrations for people that are likely not the problem. See below for a comparison example.
You chose to remove firearms from your home when your child was born. That's your choice and works for your life style. I chose to sell the motorcycle I had for years because it wasn't a means of transportation or fun I had once wanted. I can relate to the frustrations of those who ride, and many are their own problem to their community. I can see similarities with those in the firearm community. The poor decisions of a few impact many.
Please understand that your perspective does not make what someone else says "misinformation", simply because you feel you interpret it differently. There is not enough detail in the Second Amendment, because of it's limited verbiage, to split hairs. It is point blank. Every process of buying a gun from a retailer violate this Amendment unless it is simply cash and carry. Trade or exchange for value would align with no infringement. Background checks and required training are all infringements. I'm not getting into "should those things happen"? Perhaps you have a different definition or understanding of how they are using the word infringement?
-
Geeto, instead of responding to everyone else's comments and breaking them down to add your perspective, post your experience with firearms. Post your frequency of training. Share what you have found works for you for equipment, caliber or mind set to ensuring your safety and the safety of those around you. Your constant reply without expressing any background or personnel experience, simply comes off as someone with no kids telling parents how to raise their kids. Help us out.
-
To me, a regular old person, infringed means restricted in any way.
Maybe they should have been more careful with their words, or maybe they were.
Maybe if it's so unanimously agreed upon, they could repeal it like they did with prohibition or whatever that was.
Easy!
No argument there. I simply make the point that a CCW requirement is an infringement. People don't have to a free or like it. It just is what we have today.
-
I'm not sure what you're trying to say, but it sounds like we agree in part on some things. There are people out there that did not grow up around guns and have no idea how to be a responsible gun owner. The 12 hour class isn't much, but it's something. Something is better than nothing. I don't know how comfortable I am with literally anyone being allowed to carry with nothing behind it.
It may sound odd me being a teacher and all, but the guy who could barely read still passed the test. It's not a reading test, it's a firearms safety test. If the dude knows the correct answers, then he knows the correct answers.
What might sound odd is I'm not worried about the criminals. We all know they have guns, and will continue to have guns regardless of any laws enacted. Me worrying about them is a waste of time. Lets teach people how to properly handle a firearm and how to use them safely. We don't let people drive without training, carrying without proof of basic knowledge falls into the same category for me.
Also, any particular reason we're discussing this in the boat crew part of the site?
Moved this to the Gun Crew. I'm sure it was just a mistake in picking from the drop down where to post it.
It is a 8 hour course now. I still teach a 12 hour and I would teach a 16 hour, but no one is going to take a class that long.
The requirement of taking a CCW class is a direct violation of the second amendment. It infringes the right to carry a handgun without taking that class , passing, and doing all the paperwork.
We are not a society that has the upbringing of handling firearms that we once were. Our individual level of responsibility and attention to detail is really low when it comes to motor skill events. I say this from training new soldier for more than twenty years, not just teaching this class. This is a direct reflection of our lack of being physically active, poor health and not taking care of ourselves as we continue to find an easier way to do everything or have it done for us.
Many people I have trained do not get their CCW. They complete the class and realize they just wanted to have a foundation of knowledge with a firearm with home defense in mind. They simply want to feel comfortable and have a structured introduction or refresher on what to do with a firearm. They want to be talked through having the mindset of what to do in an act of violence. I have taught more personnel training classes in 3 hour blocks over the last 5 years than CCW classes. I understand that is just me and not all who provide weapons training. But I feel this gives me a good perspective to voice how people are with CCW and firearms. I told a young lady in my last class that I would not charge her for her my training, if she promised to spend the money on a jiu jitsu classes for a month. She declined and paid me. I do not see people willing to do more than the bare minimum.
Every one can carry without training. There are concerns to this. Guns are going to be left in the restroom, changing room and many other places, more so than they already are. That would not be fixed by taking a CCW class, it's just how people are. But it will make the news and they will make it what they want for ratings and to stir people up. There will be accidental discharges and injuries, these will make the news to and they will spin it. Anti gun folks will push their agenda and we will be fighting for gun rights just as hard, if not harder the whole time. No changing that. This topic is forever. There are many other ongoing factors and fights to be had with this.
In the end; the more populated an area is, the more problems we will see with people and guns. Familiarization should be done early on in life for good habits to be established. this needs to be followed with ongoing experience with firearms. This falls on the parents. More and more parents themselves are not and do not want to have anything to do with guns. Even those who once were around guns make mistakes. I have seem a former military person load rounds backwards in a magazine. They had spent a lot of time in their younger days around guns and training. Handling weapons is a perishable skill.

Nothing wrong with a free Moss 500. Mine fired every time.
Why I got rid of the one I had:
- Preference of safety location on Remington's.
- Everything felt like it was assembled loose and it made my OCD act up.
- Every option of the Remington platforms for shotguns worked better for me and how I use a shotgun.
-
Good Luck, Carl. I enjoyed mine, but there are so many other things I enjoy more, now.
