Gun Thread: Content Lite 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! Holy Jumping Atomic Shitballs! Are all y'all ever getting screwed content-wise tonight! Q: Weasel, is that really a question? I have been wrestling with a big project at work since about June and it wraps up this coming week. After that, my schedule should hopefully return to something approaching normal, and I will be able to spend more time on the Gun Thread and maybe even see if I remember where WeaselAcres is located to do some shooting. I promise I will go through the neglected email inbox and get caught up soon. As always, thanks for your patience! With that, step into the dojo and let's get to the gun stuff below, shall we? Range Time! Who has been to the range? Why, our pal Blake has not only been to the range, but he was shooting in a match too! After a 2 month layoff from shooting (I hate it when real life gets in the way of what's important: shooting) I managed make my second 1,000 match. Congratulations, Blake! I am sure by now you have decided that competition will quickly make you a more better shooter! A couple of thoughts ; recording atmospheric conditions in the form of density altitude each time you shoot can help you develop solid range data for a particular rifle/ammo combination, and wind reading is an art and converting what you read to a firing solution is a science. When everything goes to shit, stop shooting and go back to the fundamentals.! Nice job! Descent Into Madness Our pal RI Red needs help! Sunday AM following a rainy Saturday outing. Dialing in various ammo brands at distance. Yes, I am a geek. On The Range Optics on Handguns? Hell, you don't even need sights! Revolver Inspection Can't Resist Monkeying Around? Match tuning a 1911 trigger. Thank A Tree Farmer Monster From Green Hell! Musical Interlude Here is the story of the Muscle Shoals Sound. This is a really good story! Gun Basics 101 New video from the She Equips Herself gal! This week's video is on answering embarrassing questions!. I started to make a joke about stupid questions, but I happen to agree one million percent and never ever want anyone here to think their questions aren't worth asking. If you still feel this way on the Gun Thread just send me an email which I will hopefully answer in less than 12 months. Cigar of the Week Returns next Sunday. Here are some different online cigar vendors. You will find they not only carry different brands and different lines from those brands, but also varying selections of vitolas (sizes/shapes) of given lines. It's good to have options, especially if you're looking for a specific cigar. Cigarsinternational.com A note about sources. The brick & mortar/online divide exists with cigars, as with guns, and most consumer products, with respect to price. As with guns - since both are "persecuted industries", basically - I make a conscious effort to source at least some of my cigars from my local store(s). It's a small thing, but the brick & mortar segment for both guns and tobacco are precious, and worth supporting where you can. And if you're lucky enough to have a good cigar store/lounge available, they're often a good social event with many dangerous people of the sort who own scary gunz, or read smart military blogs like this one. -rhomboid Anyone have others to include? Perhaps a small local roller who makes a cigar you like? Send me your recommendation and a link to the site! Ammo Link-O-Rama This week's mailbag entry is from our pal That SOB Van Owen. Great one! 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
