[Wow...That Came Quickly!] | Main | Sunday Overnight Open Thread (9/3/23) Laboring To Be Kinder & Gentler Edition »
Gun Thread: Big Fat Ripoff Edition: Bro - Where's My Content?!
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!
Well this week I have Good News and Bad News. Which do you want first? The good news? OK!
Good News: I made it to the farm and have been busy vigorously organic tree farming!
Bad News: I have been organic tree farming so vigorously that I, um, well, sort of didn't have time to write the Gun Thread this week.
So apologies guys and gals, I promise to be back next Sunday with my usual B.S.!
With that, step into the dojo and let's get to the (sort of) gun stuff below, shall we?
Why carry a 1911? I don't know, because they're cool?

Texas MoMe Madness!
I'd like to remind everyone of the upcoming MoMe in Texas on October 20-21. If you're in either the northern or southern hemisphere of the planet of the earth, contact Ben Had for details. The dates and email links for MoMes are always helpfully included on the main page, left sidebar, so you really have no excuse!
There is an entire shooting program for both handguns and rifles over two days, world class food and drink, and the even world classier company of your fellow Morons! More on the Friday/Saturday schedule to come, so stay tuned.
Seriously, people. I have said this probably a hundred times now. These gatherings are a really good time, and I know of no one who regrets having attended one. No kidding. Would your ol' pal Weasel lie to you? MoMe veterans will attest to the funness. Don't be a dork, do yourself a favor and get your ass to Texas! If you're a TXMoMe veteran, please encourage the scairdy-cats to join in the fun!
