Merry Christmas
 

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Nate,

And to all, a good night.

Tony

Merry Christmas & God bless you all (even you atheist!)

My daughter woke up right after I brought the bicycle & archery target in from the garage. I thought I'd have all kinds of time, she's NEVER woken up at 6 am in her life.

Merry Christmas, everyone! (...and happy belated Chanukah!)

Consider yourself fortunate, my friend. If only my kids would consistently sleep past 6am!

Merry Christmas to all

And may 2011 be a better year for all of us.

Bicycle archery... sounds like an interesting sport!

I'm an atheist, my brother's a Jew, my sister is an agnostic, my mother a lapsed Catholic...so Christmas is more a personal type holiday for me. My stepmonster actually gave me a check for $100 -- stunned the hell out of me!

She's not quite that good yet. Starting her off with roller skates & archery.

Ah Texas- there is a reason why I miss living there. :)


The way the phrase "shall issue" is in both the concealed and machine gun licensing process is but one.

Merry Christmas guys!

Happy Christmas folks!

roller skates and archery....bicycles and archery....by the time she hits High School she will be wanting a M-240!!!

Merry Christmas one and all!!!!!

I hope everyone had a merry christmas...

I hope Santa was good to everyone.

Merry Christmas to all:)

i know where you can get a good deal on that if your wondering.

You can always celebrate Festivus!! :D

Mike

Hmmm.... Me thinks I will AVOID this house.... :p

Mike

Make sure you tell all your friends too!:D

She's the most dangerous 9 year old I've met.

I started her on hand to hand soon as she could walk
She's never fired an actual firearm, but she can put some rounds downrange with an airsoft M4 & M1911.
Me nor her uncle can get past her defense with foam swords.

I've got her a Walther P22 pistol but I can't find a local pistol range that will let a 9 year old in. Her uncle has a cabin on the Brazos River I'm going to finagle an invite to as soon as it warms up some & we have time.

And she loves riding with me on my motorcycle.

A 9-year-old has her own P22 and Texas won't let me own a firearm? That's not fair!

Only if you count a 175 grand a good deal. :). According to the BATFE there is only one transferable (as in you and I can get if we pay the 200 buck tax,live in the right area, and can pass a bg check) 240 out there. A buddy was bidding on it years ago and was disgusted when the price hit a hundred.

Hrm... I sense a filk in the air... "On the first day of christmas my true love gave to me.. A M2HB..."

odd my convenience store cops keep saying all i need is a registered right side plate and a parts kit. (and considering how many MAG58 RSP's were made prior to the ban that ain't hard to come by)

Side plates hrm? Have to look into that, sounds kinda like the ones for the 1917 mg's, still think they are thinking of non-transferables though.

-edit-

Huh, made a call and what do you know, there are a handfull of plates in the US, all pre-86 dealer samples, 75-100k each, but you can get them if you are a dealer. Coolness. :)

or ya can spend 25 and get a semi auto from FN but whats the fun in that (aside from being able to afford the ammo)

I was thinking just the same thing. Beeing a guy who stay away from basically any kinds of sports...I'd find bicycle archery indoors in a living room would prove great fun to watch ..from a safe distance.

Other interesting sports:

(finland) wife carrying...(first prize is your wife's weight in beer)

There is a gentleman I know through the local reenactor group who has a rather intresting work project going on...

He's restoring a one-inch caliber Gatling Gun...its not due to be completed for another two years, but he's already loading the ammo for it...and the amount of paperwork he has to file for the feds/state/county has to be seen to be believed!!!!

Among the restrictions is that he can only fire it the local police range, with an officer present (state law), but there is already a waiting list of cops!

Now that's just insane. She's not allowed to shoot her bow inside.

Isn't a one-inch caliber Gatling Gun technically an autocannon?

Lee,

How about this project, a 1/5 scale M4 Sherman tank:

It's wood with articulated tracks powered by a battery, radio controlled with a working TV camera for a buttoned-up driver, and a working pneumatic cannon.

Tony

That what I thought when I first heard about it...but its a historical, black-powder weapon...but it also explains the mountain of paperwork and the restrictions on where it can be fired and the police presence.
