Just go with a 1/2 drive ratchet and breaker bar. Use an adapter for sockets with a 3/8 or 1/4 drive, adapters weigh less than ratchets. Flippy head Gear-Wrenches are awesome, use those instead of regular open-ends. Take a couple baggies for small screws and fiddly bits. Or all the loose change you can gather...I may not have found the part I was after every time I've gone to the PnP, but I've always covered the admission charge!

I saw something similar happen with a M4 once...it fired out-of-battery, and the remaining three rounds in the magazine either chain-fired or broke open and burned. The gas vented out the bottom of the magazine with enough force that pieces of the spring were driven so far into the top of the wooden shooting bench that you could run your hand over it without catching on them. Lots of little pieces of brass all over the place too.

Did you notice how fast the valvesprings were spinning?

The weapon you use to defend yourself is the weapon that you HAVE...be it handgun, shotgun, rifle, or harsh language and fists.

Yeah, sounds like he'd rather enjoy it by DRIVING it, instead of letting it sit under a dust cover in a garage. That IS just silly....

If you hit the sole and only winning number for that $360 million cash option...what is the FIRST and SECOND thing you would purchase with that money? (I'm assuming the first and second thing you'd buy BEFORE you got the money would be a trust lawyer to set up the claim, and a new cell number to avoid getting new relatives!) First: My own private island, preferably in the Mediterranean. Second: Aventador...

I don't get it...okay, if you want a slim .45, go 1911. You're giving up 2 rounds here that you don't NEED to give up.

Overzealous is exactly the word. Clean it when you get home. Heck, even a couple days later will be okay, as long as it isn't stored somewhere humid.

"Space," it says, "is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mindbogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space, listen..." ---The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy I have my towel.

The way I see it, you can sit inside and watch other peoples lives, or go outside and live yours. The only sports I get into are racing (anything from NASCAR to WRC to America's Cup to soapbox derby!) and Calvinball.

There isn't any way to spin that. Zimmerman will be indicted by the grand jury, likely for Murder in the 2nd degree. He'll wind up with about 15 years in jail. As to why the police department didn't arrest him at the time...simple incompetence. Ever met a cop who actually KNEW the law, not just copied down a code reference onto the citation?

You also don't do it THAT close to the ground, let alone that close to the ground up in the thin air. He ignored flight minimums and safe practices to show off...and bit off his own ass.

Well, the B-2 crash was a result of a mechanical malfunction...various sensors induced an uncommanded nose-up that couldn't be over-ridden by the pilot. The Apache crash was a result of simple stupidity.

Remember "Space Jam"? The website for the movie is still up, and hasn't been updated since 1996. I can remember going to the Quantum Link bulletin board on the Commodore.

Columbus fixes potholes? When did this start happening?

I disposed of my old Dell with a 16oz can of corn. Said can was traveling at about 500ish MPH though. Potato cannons are FUN.

Anyone know of a supplier for brass and copper?

Those m39 are a GREAT rifle. Wonderful triggers and as accurate as a rimmed case can be. Plus they have those beautiful Arctic Birch stocks.

I've got a friend who built himself a pretty nice little 20's Ford from scratch for under $3,000. Took him about 3 years to assemble all the pieces and another 9 months to actually build it...but he has a metal '27 coupe body on Deuce rails with a 2.3 Ford turbo/T-5 feeding a fab'd 9" for that. To be honest, if you counted up all the tickets from car show swap meets that he haunted searching for old parts, it'd be more like $5,000 though!

Glad somebody else likes Mille Bornes...that was a favorite of mine. Try playing "Cut-Throat Uno"...take four basic decks and throw away the number cards from one of them, leaving just the special cards for that deck. When you get a Draw card played on you, you can play your own and pass it along to the next person...who can do the same to the next, until somebody can't pass it along. If you get a bunch of people playing, it's likely some poor sucker is gonna get stuck with drawing 20+ cards! Skips can be played to pass the count along, but they don't increase the count beyond what you'd have had to draw...but they also work like normal, hitting the person beyond your neighbor.

Meh...a copy isn't the real thing.

Sooner or later, Fred and Margerie Phelps will die. On the day before their funeral, I will be eating asparagus, drinking water, and chuckling in anticipation.

Oopsy.

The word is that those Garands are ROUGH. Do not expect anything better than what the CMP would call "rack" grade, and you'd be lucky to get that. I found some stuff...picked up some PPU 8mm Lebel for cheap, found a guy who repairs old Crosman BB guns, and grabbed a bunch of cheapy targets. Plus beef jerky!

I had somebody try to pull the gas scam on me last summer, he wasn't even honest enough to shut the car off and get out.... I told him I didn't have any cash, but he was welcome to my change. I had to pull my shirt aside to get to my pocket, and I "inadvertently" showed off my .45...turns out his car had enough gas to peel the hell out of the station.
