You Get What You Ask For
-------------------------
A group of previous kindergartners were trying very hard to become accustomed to the first grade. The biggest hurdle they faced was that the teacher insisted on NO baby talk!
"You need to use 'Big People' words," she was always reminding them. She asked Chris what he had done over the weekend.
"I went to visit my Nana."
"No, you went to visit your GRANDMOTHER. Use 'Big People' words!" She then asked Mitchell what he had done.
"I took a ride on a choo-choo." She said "No, you took a ride on a TRAIN. You must remember to use 'Big People' words." She then asked little Alec what he had done.
"I read a book," he replied.
"That's WONDERFUL!" the teacher said. "What book did you read?"
Alec thought real hard about it, then puffed out his chest with great pride, and said, "Winnie the SH*T."

I would simply say who gives a shit whether he does or not as he chose to disappear for a year without contact. I sent PM's to several people who fell out just to say hello and check on their well being and did not get a response from any of them so I could care less about them.

Yeah, $1000 lighter, just for the treatment probably that much more to repair the damage. But on the brighter side only surface damage and no structural damage.

Next Year maybe. :(. Unfortunately had to make a last miniute cancellation last week due to home disasters and last minute Workaference travel for Wed and Thursday.
WHAT!?
-
Morning LSU. Moving a little slow this morning, got to stay home for the pest control man to come do the termite treatment.
Breaking your heart to have to stay home, of course your wallet will also be a little lighter after today.
Yeah, $1000 lighter, just for the treatment probably that much more to repair the damage. But on the brighter side only surface damage and no structural damage.
Sounds to me like it can wait until after CFest then?

Well it must be Bad News for Cfest Monday! Rain in the forecast for Friday now, 70% chance. Rain likely in the morning, chance of showers in the afternoon. Golf in jeopardy
-
So TXDave is out and cb is out. Anyone besides myself, Scott, Mark and WhoTheFuckKnowsWhereDave gonna be there?
I'm hurt.

Termite Treatment can't wait, workaference can't wait, roof can't waitt and broken tooth can't wait for a 2000 mile just for fun trip. Just hard to go off and have fun with so much crap to deal with.

Don't know, hadn't thought about it. Think Nate is still looking forward to his beauty sleep, but I'd hate to stay in the house until the event. Hamburg store does sound like an idea, never been there myself. Only 1 hr 16 minutes from the house.

So TXDave is out and cb is out. Anyone besides myself, Scott, Mark and WhoTheFuckKnowsWhereDave gonna be there?
I will be there vicariously through Travellin Dave, my ticket is on the way to him. Tony will be there, hell he is cooking at your flop house last I heard.
Yeah, that's my 6 am brain working. Of course Tony and Charlie will be there. Can't have a cookout without the main chef!
Plus, rumor has it that Barry will be there, though, he's kinda disappeared off the planet.
I got an email from Barry the other day, he will be at CFest, been busy dealing with a lot of life stuff.

Good morning Dean, Tony, Dave(s), biebs, Chip. Sorry to hear you did have to bail, TxDave. I don't have a Ted Cruz sticker but do believe I can scrounge up a "If you ain't Texan, you ain't shit" sticker for LTG's car.
Works for me, Nate's driving. Morning, Mark.
Haha, perfect
And he's not even driving his car, he's taking his mom's, since his has a fan belt issue, and he doesn't trust it on the long journey. Big surprise for momma when we get back. Lol
wouldn't it just make sense for him to fix the fan belt? Just sayin'
His roommate moved out on him a few months ago, so he's been swinging the rent by himself since then, no extra money to do it.
Hell, for all I know he HAS fixed it, just wanted to drive his mom's car because her car gets 40+ mpg, and his gets maybe 15 going downhill with a stiff breeze behind it.

Preemployment health screen...trying to find the urge to pee!
Think of baseball, or something like that. Morning, fellow commie.
Good morning sir. I think it's the urge to shit that's throwing me off 
Why not throw in a bonus stool sample?
No blood test, so that's a major win. Just urine
They usually do oral swabs for tobacco these days.

High enough quality metal roof to avoid hail damage is about double the cost of asphalt shingles and worth considering if we planned to stay here long term.

I think the issue is on his list of things that need to be done. But since he's already paid for the ticket and part of the house, little sense backing out now. Might as well enjoy the trip, and save some gas to boot. We're democrats after all, we just want to make love to Mother Earth. ;)

You guys can keep Boner if you want.
I'm trying to get a good turn-out for the CF herf/bbq so let's not tell everyone it's Democratic National Committee fundraiser just yet.
What are you bringing to the bbq besides a hearty appetite?
I have to bring some pork roll to counteract that fru-fru shit.

Good idea, we'll spring it on them after the fish course.
That reminds me, don't forget to bring the quinoa.
Packed it with the lentils and hummus.
So much for appetite.
Hummus doesn't look much different coming or going...

Hmmm, had to look that up. Sounds delicious, and 48% of daily fiber per serving. :o
And real men don't eat it. Popular with the metro males that ride their bikes to work in downtown Austin.
Your people?
More like Golf's people
Oh so there are no seats on the bikes?

Hey, Jake. You hit that weekend spotlight yet? The new Bueso's are here! The new Bueso's are here!
No, I bought a 10er from the sis 2 weeks ago when it was THEIR special. Lol
You've probably already tried it then... musta missed the review. I'm sure you liked it though. A little more oomph than the 'project'?
I have, this was the review I posted last week - Pretty good so far. Strong barnyard smell prior to light. First half inch had a strong campfire smell, which I didn't expect. Kinda like the KFC. Back to barnyard after that. Solid burn, perfect draw. Getting stronger past the halfway point. In short, me likey.

Welll as a matter of fact I do have issues with GMO's and most anything else Mon ending in Santo is associated with but no ranting. When I was working in MO i used to stay at a hotel right by the Mon Santo GMO research facility and let me tell you if the White House had that much security people would not be slipping in there.

I believe I will go my azz home and light a cigar on the freshly exterminated patio. Beautiful day here and about 80 degrees.
Damn good plan!
I love it when a plan comes together.
Just attached the necklace hooks and applied the second coat of Ebony stain(used poplar wood). Wife is boring and said she didn't want a fancy wood, her loss!
-
In my office now, quiet here! 3-5 days termites should be dead.
Little commie bastiges!
Bastiges are hell to deal with. Guy told me the poison cost $800/3 gallons.
And you believed that?
Easily. Only 1 product that reliably works and only 1 company makes it.
Does it start with 'Mon' and end with 'santo'?
Dont get all liberal Corporate conspiracy on me....next you will start ranting about GMO's, Vaccines and such and you will really get me going.
Welll as a matter of fact I do have issues with GMO's and most anything else Mon ending in Santo is associated with but no ranting. When I was working in MO i used to stay at a hotel right by the Mon Santo GMO research facility and let me tell you if the White House had that much security people would not be slipping in there.
Much more important stuff going on there than the White House.

They want nothing less than world domination. Part of that is controlling the food supply. Is that where they started from? Probably not, but somewhere along the line they decided they would set a goal and pursue it ruthlessly.

Yea, but they gotta share with Exxon, Microsoft, GE, Apple, Walmart, Comcast and all the others. They would do a better job than Washington in any case. We need them to fight off China and Russia as our government is just giving us away to them.
I see no problem with it.

Gunbuyer.com has Colt A4 Flat Dark Earth mid lenght 20" for $869 with FS, that is not bad for a little higher quality AR.
Tombstone Tactical has DPMS for $731 Free Shipping
Kentucky Gun has Bushmaster A3 superlight carbine $619 Free Shipping but those bastiges charge 3% for using a CC, otherwise they are good.
Like the Colt for a 15. Actually, started looking for a .308. If money were no consideration, AR-10 SuperSass 8)
Lots of .308 choices now in AR platforms. I actually own a new-in-the-box HK-91 I bought back in the day, 1984 to be exact.
I'd like all the banter brothers to weigh in if you care to share your knowledge and experience. If you had to choose only one of each, one handgun, one rifle and one shotgun for one's personal safety and hunting which 3 would you choose, keeping in mind value/price, reliability, ease of use, maintainence & security. Of interest also would be a decent number of rounds that it can hold without reloading and shooting long guns off of left shoulder. (right handed but opposite eye dominant), or so I've been told.

I only have shotguns, so I'll weigh in. Best and most reliable, IMO, with modification potential is a Remington 870. I have a 20 and 12 ga, both magnums, and have never had an issue - 20ga is 12years old and the 12 is 21yo). I really like my 11-87 for a Semi-Auto Remington, but unnecessary for home defense. I think they hold 7 rounds, would have to check - also get a neoprene side holder to add 4-6 extra shells close to your disposal.
I don't have a home defense weapon, just hunting shotguns with normal field specifications. :D
When I go deer hunting I use a Remington .270 pump and I love it, but I don't have enough experience to give a great review. I shot it a couple times on the range and once to kill a deer - worked at designed ;)

I can't help you with your previous question about firearms but I may have an opinion on this one. I just don't want to type so much so I'll save it for Friday.

Well, I don't own and haven't shot a rifle in a long time, but let me vote on the other two. For Shotgun, either the Remington 870 or Mossberg 500, (I went with the Remington), for pistol I like Glock 17, Springfield XDm and FNS. My choice is the FNS

Gun question on the table, needing your 2 cents.
Well here it is, but first I must say I don't like reversible belts cause they look like chit on both sides and one gun to do all falls in that category.
But using generalities here it is.
Auto Handgun: Glock 31 or 33 (.357 Sig) Or FNX .45 ACP
Large Revolver: S &W model 627. (.357 Magnum)
Shotgun: Hunting. Benelli Super Black Eagle II
Self Defense: FN or Benelli. 870 or Mossberg 500 are a good lower cost option though.
Hunting Rifle: Remington 700 BDL in appropriate caliber for game

I'd like all the banter brothers to weigh in if you care to share your knowledge and experience. If you had to choose only one of each, one handgun, one rifle and one shotgun for one's personal safety and hunting which 3 would you choose, keeping in mind value/price, reliability, ease of use, maintainence & security. Of interest also would be a decent number of rounds that it can hold without reloading and shooting long guns off of left shoulder. (right handed but opposite eye dominant), or so I've been told.
You didn't specifically mention a SHTF type of global or national catastrophe, but given that I live in earthquake and volcano country I have to consider the possibility. So if I only get three:
Handgun: Glock 17 (9mm)
Rifle: Remington 700 in .308 NATO
Shotgun: Remington or Mossberg 12 gauge.
Simple reasoning: These are all at or near the top of the list of most popular weapons of all time, especially among law enforcement and military. So ammo, parts, and accessories would be easy to scrounge, steal, or seize. I don't include a military-style rifle (AR, AK, or the like) because:
A) They are not great hunting rifles, and the rounds for which they are most commonly chambered are not great hunting rounds
B) They are designed to be most effective in support of squad-based tactics, not individual self defense
C) They require careful maintenance to remain operable.
D) I don't believe that in a SHTF scenario the general populace will suddenly become battle-hardened and competent at squad tactics. So I can deal with the likely threat scenarios nearly as effectively with a .308 bolt-action and the shotgun as I could with a semi-auto military-style rifle, and still bring down about any size dinner-on-the-hoof.
But if you let me have four weapons instead of three, then I'd want to add an Armalite-style rifle in 5.56 NATO, just for dealing with the possibility of being surprised by a marauding group.
Of course, if Mt. Rainier goes up, it's an academic discussion for me, because I'd be vaporized in about 8 seconds.
If you believe the likeliest threat scenario is personal or property crime, then go for the Glock 22 (.40 S&W) for a handgun and make the shotgun a short-barrel.
If you believe you'll be stuck in an urban environment, make the rifle an Armalite-style rifle in 5.56 NATO.
Yes, I know you can get AR's in .308, but if it breaks and the power is out you'll have difficulty sourcing parts.
You'll notice I don't include any compact or sub-compact weapons. If I can only have one, it has to be full-sized. Compact weapons only have value in a relatively ordered society.

Yes, but forcing it to three makes for an interesting challenge. Since I can't have an appropriate gun for every purpose, how do I compromise?

You didn't specifically mention a SHTF type of global or national catastrophe, but given that I live in earthquake and volcano country I have to consider the possibility. So if I only get three:
Handgun: Glock 17 (9mm)
Rifle: Remington 700 in .308 NATO
Shotgun: Remington or Mossberg 12 gauge.
Simple reasoning: These are all at or near the top of the list of most popular weapons of all time, especially among law enforcement and military. So ammo, parts, and accessories would be easy to scrounge, steal, or seize. I don't include a military-style rifle (AR, AK, or the like) because:
A) They are not great hunting rifles, and the rounds for which they are most commonly chambered are not great hunting rounds
B) They are designed to be most effective in support of squad-based tactics, not individual self defense
C) They require careful maintenance to remain operable.
D) I don't believe that in a SHTF scenario the general populace will suddenly become battle-hardened and competent at squad tactics. So I can deal with the likely threat scenarios nearly as effectively with a .308 bolt-action and the shotgun as I could with a semi-auto military-style rifle, and still bring down about any size dinner-on-the-hoof.
But if you let me have four weapons instead of three, then I'd want to add an Armalite-style rifle in 5.56 NATO, just for dealing with the possibility of being surprised by a marauding group.
Of course, if Mt. Rainier goes up, it's an academic discussion for me, because I'd be vaporized in about 8 seconds.
If you believe the likeliest threat scenario is personal or property crime, then go for the Glock 22 (.40 S&W) for a handgun and make the shotgun a short-barrel.
If you believe you'll be stuck in an urban environment, make the rifle an Armalite-style rifle in 5.56 NATO.
Yes, I know you can get AR's in .308, but if it breaks and the power is out you'll have difficulty sourcing parts.
You'll notice I don't include any compact or sub-compact weapons. If I can only have one, it has to be full-sized. Compact weapons only have value in a relatively ordered society.
Thanks, Raz, for your input, especially for including your reasoning ... because that helps ...
very interesting that you said, " But if you let me have four weapons instead of three, then I'd want to add an Armalite-style rifle in 5.56 NATO, just for dealing with the possibility of being surprised by a marauding group." because that's exactly what's going on only 40 miles to the north of us, and has non-stop local news coverage going on ... they aren't even stopping for commercial breaks ... no other coverage, just this with news copter footage. Before I was aware of what was going on, I spoke with my North Baltimore, CiL, about our CFest plans, smokes we've had over the weekend (FWIW, he liked the Nica Libre 25th Anniversary torpedo that I sent him), and an upcoming cigar dinner. This stuff hadn't really broken out yet at that time.

Sheesh, just the words Mon and Santo killed the damn banter.
LOL!
Gunbuyer.com has Colt A4 Flat Dark Earth mid lenght 20" for $869 with FS, that is not bad for a little higher quality AR.
Tombstone Tactical has DPMS for $731 Free Shipping
Kentucky Gun has Bushmaster A3 superlight carbine $619 Free Shipping but those bastiges charge 3% for using a CC, otherwise they are good.
Like the Colt for a 15. Actually, started looking for a .308. If money were no consideration, AR-10 SuperSass 8)
Lots of .308 choices now in AR platforms. I actually own a new-in-the-box HK-91 I bought back in the day, 1984 to be exact.
I'd like all the banter brothers to weigh in if you care to share your knowledge and experience. If you had to choose only one of each, one handgun, one rifle and one shotgun for one's personal safety and hunting which 3 would you choose, keeping in mind value/price, reliability, ease of use, maintainence & security. Of interest also would be a decent number of rounds that it can hold without reloading and shooting long guns off of left shoulder. (right handed but opposite eye dominant), or so I've been told.
Well, I don't own and haven't shot a rifle in a long time, but let me vote on the other two. For Shotgun, either the Remington 870 or Mossberg 500, (I went with the Remington), for pistol I like Glock 17, Springfield XDm and FNS. My choice is the FNS
Thanks, TDave! Good info. These suggestions are reminding me of pieces that have been mentioned in the past.
Funny just got an email special on FNS pistols from Palmetto State Armory.

Shit I did not know we had to have a reason. Glock 31 because it carries a devastating punch without brutal recoil and holds 15 rounds.

I believe I will go my azz home and light a cigar on the freshly exterminated patio. Beautiful day here and about 80 degrees.
Damn good plan!
I love it when a plan comes together.

And here I am plan fully implemented with CyB lit
Gun question on the table, needing your 2 cents.
Well here it is, but first I must say I don't like reversible belts cause they look like chit on both sides and one gun to do all falls in that category.
Yes, but forcing it to three makes for an interesting challenge. Since I can't have an appropriate gun for every purpose, how do I compromise?
But using generalities here it is.
Auto Handgun: Glock 31 or 33 (.357 Sig) Or FNX .45 ACP
Large Revolver: S &W model 627. (.357 Magnum)
Shotgun: Hunting. Benelli Super Black Eagle II
Self Defense: FN or Benelli. 870 or Mossberg 500 are a good lower cost option though.
Hunting Rifle: Remington 700 BDL in appropriate caliber for game
But you bent the rules of the game. Only one handgun allowed. Is it a revolver, or a semi-auto?
Semi Auto without a doubt

But you have to consider that against my squad-tactics statement. Just because there's a group of people rioting or marauding doesn't make them a militia-type threat. Start shooting and there is a good chance that they'll break ranks and run for cover, unless they've been trained otherwise.
There is no way to make one handgun, one rifle, and one shotgun an all-scenario perfect solution. You have to compromise and you have to consider the likely threat scenario, your own abilities, and your personal tactics and strategy. A military-style rifle is designed for use by trained groups to respond against trained groups. But if the likelihood of going up against some sort of paramilitary gang is less than the likelihood of dealing with a couple of bad guys or a starving small mob, then a bolt-action rifle and my own training and practice will likely get me through and still allow me to hunt up plenty of meat.
But if I was stuck in an urban environment, where the likeliest scenario is getting ambushed by an unruly mob, and the only game around is stray pets and coyotes, then I want a smaller-caliber weapon that can hold lots of cartridges. That's when a military-style rifle becomes a better choice than a hunting-rifle.
In my opinion, of course.

Problem is the police are so afraid of doing anything. If they were to just take down 3-4 of the arrogant ringleaders, preferably wearing colors, the mass nonsense would stop. As it is the real problem element knows they can destroy cars, shops and no one will do anything.

And here I am plan fully implemented with CyB lit
Gun question on the table, needing your 2 cents.
Well here it is, but first I must say I don't like reversible belts cause they look like chit on both sides and one gun to do all falls in that category.
But using generalities here it is.
Auto Handgun: Glock 31 or 33 (.357 Sig) Or FNX .45 ACP
Large Revolver: S &W model 627. (.357 Magnum)
Shotgun: Hunting. Benelli Super Black Eagle II
Self Defense: FN or Benelli. 870 or Mossberg 500 are a good lower cost option though.
Hunting Rifle: Remington 700 BDL in appropriate caliber for game
Thanks, TR!!!
If going to Baltimore tonight better have one of each with you and lots of ammo they are tearing the place up. 7 cops sent to the hospital already
Well, as my daughter lives in B'more...
Good time for her to come visit Pops. Hope she is far away from the area of town where this is going on. Watching it on tv and cops are literally doing nothing but watching

Me, give me something belt fed. Just choot 'em!
Really tough to hunt game with. Afternoon, Mikey.
Does ruin a bit of meat. Afternoon Raz.

I'd like all the banter brothers to weigh in if you care to share your knowledge and experience. If you had to choose only one of each, one handgun, one rifle and one shotgun for one's personal safety and hunting which 3 would you choose, keeping in mind value/price, reliability, ease of use, maintainence & security. Of interest also would be a decent number of rounds that it can hold without reloading and shooting long guns off of left shoulder. (right handed but opposite eye dominant), or so I've been told.
You didn't specifically mention a SHTF type of global or national catastrophe, but given that I live in earthquake and volcano country I have to consider the possibility. So if I only get three:
Handgun: Glock 17 (9mm)
Rifle: Remington 700 in .308 NATO
Shotgun: Remington or Mossberg 12 gauge.
Simple reasoning: These are all at or near the top of the list of most popular weapons of all time, especially among law enforcement and military. So ammo, parts, and accessories would be easy to scrounge, steal, or seize. I don't include a military-style rifle (AR, AK, or the like) because:
A) They are not great hunting rifles, and the rounds for which they are most commonly chambered are not great hunting rounds
B) They are designed to be most effective in support of squad-based tactics, not individual self defense
C) They require careful maintenance to remain operable.
D) I don't believe that in a SHTF scenario the general populace will suddenly become battle-hardened and competent at squad tactics. So I can deal with the likely threat scenarios nearly as effectively with a .308 bolt-action and the shotgun as I could with a semi-auto military-style rifle, and still bring down about any size dinner-on-the-hoof.
But if you let me have four weapons instead of three, then I'd want to add an Armalite-style rifle in 5.56 NATO, just for dealing with the possibility of being surprised by a marauding group.
Of course, if Mt. Rainier goes up, it's an academic discussion for me, because I'd be vaporized in about 8 seconds.
If you believe the likeliest threat scenario is personal or property crime, then go for the Glock 22 (.40 S&W) for a handgun and make the shotgun a short-barrel.
If you believe you'll be stuck in an urban environment, make the rifle an Armalite-style rifle in 5.56 NATO.
Yes, I know you can get AR's in .308, but if it breaks and the power is out you'll have difficulty sourcing parts.
You'll notice I don't include any compact or sub-compact weapons. If I can only have one, it has to be full-sized. Compact weapons only have value in a relatively ordered society.
Thanks, Raz, for your input, especially for including your reasoning ... because that helps ...
very interesting that you said, " But if you let me have four weapons instead of three, then I'd want to add an Armalite-style rifle in 5.56 NATO, just for dealing with the possibility of being surprised by a marauding group." because that's exactly what's going on only 40 miles to the north of us, and has non-stop local news coverage going on ... they aren't even stopping for commercial breaks ... no other coverage, just this with news copter footage. Before I was aware of what was going on, I spoke with my North Baltimore, CiL, about our CFest plans, smokes we've had over the weekend (FWIW, he liked the Nica Libre 25th Anniversary torpedo that I sent him), and an upcoming cigar dinner. This stuff hadn't really broken out yet at that time.
Shit I did not know we had to have a reason. Glock 31 because it carries a devastating punch without brutal recoil and holds 15 rounds.
Fired a Desert Eagle for the first time two weeks ago. I was amazed at the lack of recoil.
What Caliber, I shot a .44 one and not bad but would like to try a .50AE for the hell of it.

Sheesh, just the words Mon and Santo killed the damn banter.
LOL!
Gunbuyer.com has Colt A4 Flat Dark Earth mid lenght 20" for $869 with FS, that is not bad for a little higher quality AR.
Tombstone Tactical has DPMS for $731 Free Shipping
Kentucky Gun has Bushmaster A3 superlight carbine $619 Free Shipping but those bastiges charge 3% for using a CC, otherwise they are good.
Like the Colt for a 15. Actually, started looking for a .308. If money were no consideration, AR-10 SuperSass 8)
Lots of .308 choices now in AR platforms. I actually own a new-in-the-box HK-91 I bought back in the day, 1984 to be exact.

Well, I don't own and haven't shot a rifle in a long time, but let me vote on the other two. For Shotgun, either the Remington 870 or Mossberg 500, (I went with the Remington), for pistol I like Glock 17, Springfield XDm and FNS. My choice is the FNS
Thanks, TDave! Good info. These suggestions are reminding me of pieces that have been mentioned in the past.
Funny just got an email special on FNS pistols from Palmetto State Armory.
Nice ... good deal?

What Caliber, I shot a .44 one and not bad but would like to try a .50AE for the hell of it.
I've shot the .50AE and the recoil is quite significant, so either TD is more he-man than I am (quite possible, as I'm 5'8" and 150 lbs soaking wet) or it was one of the lesser calibers. But the Desert Eagle does absorb a lot of recoil. It's heavy, long barreled, and has a mechanically demanding action. It's far less punishing to shoot a .50AE Desert Eagle than, say, a Ruger Alaskan in .454. The Alaskan will about take your hand off if you aren't minding your P's and Q's when you fire it.

You said it right there - a can of roach spray and a butane lighter = instant concealable flamethrower. Wasp-killer spray works even better, as it's designed to shoot 12 feet.

Yeah that jet stream wasp spray is bad ass stuff, also jet stream brake cleaner is very similar.

Problem is the police are so afraid of doing anything. If they were to just take down 3-4 of the arrogant ringleaders, preferably wearing colors, the mass nonsense would stop. As it is the real problem element knows they can destroy cars, shops and no one will do anything.
Dave, you are so radical! Show some empathy

That's the one. $1 a shell....
A buck a shot would be a killer deal on .50 AE. Usually stays north of $1.50 per, and in your local retail store will be more like $1.75 per.
Three times in life I've come within inches of buying a .50 AE Desert Eagle, most recently about three weeks ago. They're fun and they're sexy...just not terribly practical.
Friend of mine bought a .45-70 revolver recently. I asked him if he was headed for Alaska. Nope.
Then why?
"Just because I can."
Hard to fault that logic.

very interesting that you said, " But if you let me have four weapons instead of three, then I'd want to add an Armalite-style rifle in 5.56 NATO, just for dealing with the possibility of being surprised by a marauding group." because that's exactly what's going on only 40 miles to the north of us, and has non-stop local news coverage going on ... they aren't even stopping for commercial breaks ... no other coverage, just this with news copter footage. Before I was aware of what was going on, I spoke with my North Baltimore, CiL, about our CFest plans, smokes we've had over the weekend (FWIW, he liked the Nica Libre 25th Anniversary torpedo that I sent him), and an upcoming cigar dinner. This stuff hadn't really broken out yet at that time.
Shit I did not know we had to have a reason. Glock 31 because it carries a devastating punch without brutal recoil and holds 15 rounds.
Fired a Desert Eagle for the first time two weeks ago. I was amazed at the lack of recoil.
What Caliber, I shot a .44 one and not bad but would like to try a .50AE for the hell of it.
I've shot the .50AE and the recoil is quite significant, so either TD is more he-man than I am (quite possible, as I'm 5'8" and 150 lbs soaking wet) or it was one of the lesser calibers. But the Desert Eagle does absorb a lot of recoil. It's heavy, long barreled, and has a mechanically demanding action. It's far less punishing to shoot a .50AE Desert Eagle than, say, a Ruger Alaskan in .454. The Alaskan will about take your hand off if you aren't minding your P's and Q's when you fire it.
The interesting thing is that the recoil was straight back without any push upwards. Much easier to absorb and no gun movement.

I'd like all the banter brothers to weigh in if you care to share your knowledge and experience. If you had to choose only one of each, one handgun, one rifle and one shotgun for one's personal safety and hunting which 3 would you choose, keeping in mind value/price, reliability, ease of use, maintainence & security. Of interest also would be a decent number of rounds that it can hold without reloading and shooting long guns off of left shoulder. (right handed but opposite eye dominant), or so I've been told.
You didn't specifically mention a SHTF type of global or national catastrophe, but given that I live in earthquake and volcano country I have to consider the possibility. So if I only get three:
Handgun: Glock 17 (9mm)
Rifle: Remington 700 in .308 NATO
Shotgun: Remington or Mossberg 12 gauge.
Simple reasoning: These are all at or near the top of the list of most popular weapons of all time, especially among law enforcement and military. So ammo, parts, and accessories would be easy to scrounge, steal, or seize. I don't include a military-style rifle (AR, AK, or the like) because:
A) They are not great hunting rifles, and the rounds for which they are most commonly chambered are not great hunting rounds
B) They are designed to be most effective in support of squad-based tactics, not individual self defense
C) They require careful maintenance to remain operable.
D) I don't believe that in a SHTF scenario the general populace will suddenly become battle-hardened and competent at squad tactics. So I can deal with the likely threat scenarios nearly as effectively with a .308 bolt-action and the shotgun as I could with a semi-auto military-style rifle, and still bring down about any size dinner-on-the-hoof.
But if you let me have four weapons instead of three, then I'd want to add an Armalite-style rifle in 5.56 NATO, just for dealing with the possibility of being surprised by a marauding group.
Of course, if Mt. Rainier goes up, it's an academic discussion for me, because I'd be vaporized in about 8 seconds.
If you believe the likeliest threat scenario is personal or property crime, then go for the Glock 22 (.40 S&W) for a handgun and make the shotgun a short-barrel.
If you believe you'll be stuck in an urban environment, make the rifle an Armalite-style rifle in 5.56 NATO.
Yes, I know you can get AR's in .308, but if it breaks and the power is out you'll have difficulty sourcing parts.

Problem is the police are so afraid of doing anything. If they were to just take down 3-4 of the arrogant ringleaders, preferably wearing colors, the mass nonsense would stop. As it is the real problem element knows they can destroy cars, shops and no one will do anything.
Dave, you are so radical! Show some empathy
I am....I backed down from one or two dozen before posting.
LOL I have restrained myself several times as I watch it on TV. Lock & Load Monday on Sportsman Channel hard to decide what to watch.

I believe I will go my azz home and light a cigar on the freshly exterminated patio. Beautiful day here and about 80 degrees.
Damn good plan!
I love it when a plan comes together.

Gun question on the table, needing your 2 cents.
Well here it is, but first I must say I don't like reversible belts cause they look like chit on both sides and one gun to do all falls in that category.
But using generalities here it is.
Auto Handgun: Glock 31 or 33 (.357 Sig) Or FNX .45 ACP
Large Revolver: S &W model 627. (.357 Magnum)
Shotgun: Hunting. Benelli Super Black Eagle II
Self Defense: FN or Benelli. 870 or Mossberg 500 are a good lower cost option though.
Hunting Rifle: Remington 700 BDL in appropriate caliber for game
Thanks, TR!!!
If going to Baltimore tonight better have one of each with you and lots of ammo they are tearing the place up. 7 cops sent to the hospital already
The coverage continues with intensity ... how about a concealed carry flamethrower or roach killer?
You said it right there - a can of roach spray and a butane lighter = instant concealable flamethrower. Wasp-killer spray works even better, as it's designed to shoot 12 feet.
Wow, there you go ... I have experience with both, just not together, though when I was a kid I used to do that with a match and Right Guard deoderant, but didn't have the distance that the wasp spray would provide. Which reminds me, I need to refill my lighter which went dry yesterday. Going to do that and maybe head out to hopefully watch the Caps beat the Islanders and move past the first round for the first time in awhile!
Thanks for all of the interesting comments and discussion gents. In the back of my mind, under value/price, I was thinking of the cost and availability of

In .50 AE?
That's the one. $1 a shell....
A buck a shot would be a killer deal on .50 AE. Usually stays north of $1.50 per, and in your local retail store will be more like $1.75 per.
Three times in life I've come within inches of buying a .50 AE Desert Eagle, most recently about three weeks ago. They're fun and they're sexy...just not terribly practical.
Friend of mine bought a .45-70 revolver recently. I asked him if he was headed for Alaska. Nope.
Then why?
"Just because I can."
Hard to fault that logic.
I'm sure they have most of the ammo repacked at the range, so that might be part of the reason. Fun place to go as they have about anything you might want to fire for rent....very reasonable, but it's the ammo that gets you.

Rifle: Remington 700 in .308 NATO
Shotgun: Remington or Mossberg 12 gauge.
Simple reasoning: These are all at or near the top of the list of most popular weapons of all time, especially among law enforcement and military. So ammo, parts, and accessories would be easy to scrounge, steal, or seize. I don't include a military-style rifle (AR, AK, or the like) because:
A) They are not great hunting rifles, and the rounds for which they are most commonly chambered are not great hunting rounds
B) They are designed to be most effective in support of squad-based tactics, not individual self defense
C) They require careful maintenance to remain operable.
D) I don't believe that in a SHTF scenario the general populace will suddenly become battle-hardened and competent at squad tactics. So I can deal with the likely threat scenarios nearly as effectively with a .308 bolt-action and the shotgun as I could with a semi-auto military-style rifle, and still bring down about any size dinner-on-the-hoof.
But if you let me have four weapons instead of three, then I'd want to add an Armalite-style rifle in 5.56 NATO, just for dealing with the possibility of being surprised by a marauding group.
Of course, if Mt. Rainier goes up, it's an academic discussion for me, because I'd be vaporized in about 8 seconds.
If you believe the likeliest threat scenario is personal or property crime, then go for the Glock 22 (.40 S&W) for a handgun and make the shotgun a short-barrel.
If you believe you'll be stuck in an urban environment, make the rifle an Armalite-style rifle in 5.56 NATO.
Yes, I know you can get AR's in .308, but if it breaks and the power is out you'll have difficulty sourcing parts.
You'll notice I don't include any compact or sub-compact weapons. If I can only have one, it has to be full-sized. Compact weapons only have value in a relatively ordered society.
Thanks, Raz, for your input, especially for including your reasoning ... because that helps ...
very interesting that you said, " But if you let me have four weapons instead of three, then I'd want to add an Armalite-style rifle in 5.56 NATO, just for dealing with the possibility of being surprised by a marauding group." because that's exactly what's going on only 40 miles to the north of us, and has non-stop local news coverage going on ... they aren't even stopping for commercial breaks ... no other coverage, just this with news copter footage. Before I was aware of what was going on, I spoke with my North Baltimore, CiL, about our CFest plans, smokes we've had over the weekend (FWIW, he liked the Nica Libre 25th Anniversary torpedo that I sent him), and an upcoming cigar dinner. This stuff hadn't really broken out yet at that time.
Shit I did not know we had to have a reason. Glock 31 because it carries a devastating punch without brutal recoil and holds 15 rounds.
Fired a Desert Eagle for the first time two weeks ago. I was amazed at the lack of recoil.
In .50 AE?
That's the one. $1 a shell....
A buck a shot would be a killer deal on .50 AE. Usually stays north of $1.50 per, and in your local retail store will be more like $1.75 per.
Three times in life I've come within inches of buying a .50 AE Desert Eagle, most recently about three weeks ago. They're fun and they're sexy...just not terribly practical.
Friend of mine bought a .45-70 revolver recently. I asked him if he was headed for Alaska. Nope.
Then why?
"Just because I can."
Hard to fault that logic.
I'm sure they have most of the ammo repacked at the range, so that might be part of the reason. Fun place to go as they have about anything you might want to fire for rent....very reasonable, but it's the ammo that gets you.
That in GA?
Yes, Athens area, so is a nice gun shop.

Yea, just got off the phone with my daughter. She's pretty well removed from the main areas but close enough to be disconcerting.

Thankfully she is at least in a safer area .
