Gun Thread: 1st October Sunday Edition!Howdy, Y'all! Welcome to the wondrously fabulous Gun Thread! As always, I want to thank all of our regulars for being here week in and week out, and also offer a bigly Gun Thread welcome to any newcomers who may be joining us tonight. Howdy and thank you for stopping by! I hope you find our wacky conversation on the subject of guns 'n shooting both enjoyable and informative. You are always welcome to lurk in the shadows of shame, but I'd like to invite you to jump into the conversation, say howdy, and tell us what kind of shooting you like to do! How the hell did it get to be October? I mean, it seems like just a couple of weeks ago it was June! I've heard time passes more quickly as you get older, but that certainly cannot be the case with me. I popped down to the farm this week to check on the trees, change the oil in some stuff, and generally relax for a couple of days. I also put up some shelving in the barn (please don't call it a shed) in an attempt at organization which has been on my to-do list for about three years. Out of all the projects, installing the shelves went the smoothest. Go figure! With that, let's get to the gun stuff below, shall we? What else happens in October besides shelving projects, you ask? Why, the Texas MoMe happens in October! I'm reposting this from a few weeks ago in case you missed it. It is like a big family reunion, except everybody there likes each other and has a good time. I swear to John Moses Browning that my face hurts after it's over from smiling and laughing so much. There truly is something for everyone, as long as you like fun, friends, epic people watching, laughing, food, drink, music, dancing, shooting, lying, cussing... it really has everything! And the greatest part is that everyone fits in. Even the quietest most introverted people come and have a good time. You can do as much as you like or as little as you like. Some people take advantage of the shooting opportunities, and others hang out and simply peek in from the sidelines enjoying the ample food and drink, which is just fine. Every year after it's over and participants are discussing it in the comments, we have people lamenting the fact they did not attend and have fun with the rest of us. You think the comment section here is fun? A MoMe - any MoMe - is about 10 times better. Why in the ever-loving hell do you think I spend so much time encouraging people to attend? Again, it is fun, and it is happening soon. Corsicana, Texas on October 22nd and 23rd. Contact Ben Had for details and mention Weasel sent you. First up we have a great report on a recent acquisition by a lurker. Mr/Ms Lurker certainly has good taste in firearms! A couple years back, whilst sippin' and BS'n with my neighbor on his porch, he deigned to show me a gun he'd inherited from his dad. He knew nothing about the gun, it's make, model, caliber or history. Just that it was in his Dad's "things" that he got. What a beauty! A really fine example, congratulations Lurker, if that is your real name! Next up our pal Draki shares a photo of a beloved M4. I love the M4. It's been such a good carbine. It's easy to handle, modify for your body and taste, and the recoil isn't distracting. Though I'm playing favorites with it because it's my war gun, I'm just addicted to the way it feels and shoots. Very nice, Draki! Thanks for your service! Next up our pal Phat shares his home setup. I haven't been shooting as much as I should lately. No excuse, just haven’t made time to go out to the gun club. I usually shoot trap, but have been trying to also hit the rifle/pistol range whenever I go. Whoa Phat! That is very nice, and I am sooo jealous! Thanks for sharing. Next up, our ever alert pal CBD sends a great video link. I watched this and wondered about how many other simple safety tips the Horde could think of. Great find, CBD! What do you all think? Any other tips to share? Anyone heard of this guy? He's fast! Gun Basics 101 It seems like a simple matter, but this is something to pay attention to when you go into a gun shop for any number of reasons; buying, selling, repairs or just a day at the range. Does anyone have anything else to add? Cigar of the Day Tonight's cigar is a Romeo y Julieta Reserve Maduro. I like strong cigars and at 6x52 there is a lot of this one to enjoy! I can honestly say there isn't anything about this well made cigar I do not like. At around $10 each, I don't smoke them daily but rather save them for a special occasion like the Gun Thread! Link-O-Rama I'm really very seriously not kidding around anymore. Buy Ammo This week's gun funny came some one of you, but I cannot remember who! Sorry! Please note the new and improved protonmail account gunthread at protonmail dot com. An informal Gun Thread archive can be found HERE. Future expansion plans are in the works for the site Weasel Gun Thread. If you have a question you would like to ask Gun Thread Staff offline, just send us a note and we'll do our best to answer. If you care to share the story of your favorite firearm, send a picture with your nic and tell us what you sadly lost in the tragic canoe accident. If you would like to remain completely anonymous, just say so. Lurkers are always welcome! That's it for this week - have you been to the range? | Recent Comments
