Gun Thread: First November 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 Shitballs! How in the ever-loving Hell did it get to be November? Did everyone survive Halloween? Any hauntings at the range? With that, step into the dojo and let's get to the gun stuff below, shall we? FUNdamentals So we had a fair amount of fundamentals focus going on at the TX MoMe. Lots of individualized instruction on the handgun range and some very good shooting back on the rifle range. Our pal and host extraordinaire Rancher Bob shares a look at how some of these rifle targets looked afterward. For those not attending, we had targets at 50, 100, 200, 300, 500, 750 and 1000 yards. 300 yds - lots of hits on the target 500 yards, some nice groups here 750 yards - somebody using a shotgun? 1000 yds - three grouped close to center - very nicely done! All in all, not bad shooting for a bunch of morons! Nicely done! All y'all should be proud of yourselves. Guns of the Horde Guess who bought a new AR upper! Go ahead! Guess! Why, it;s none other than our pal CBD who is out there buying uppers! Oh look! Another gun I don't need, but really, really want! But I have an excuse; Weasel made me get it. Basic Handgun Cleaning These videos should give you an introduction to the basics of handgun cleaning. Revolver Semi-AutoPistol Colt Python v. S&W Model 686 'Jer' Sez:: Don't Do This So don't do it. Zeroing Red Dots Welcome Gerdie! FSJ's new little sister has a name! Gertrude, or Gerdie for short. Here they announce the arrival of the mailman! PROTIP: Sound on LOW
Oil: Synthetic v. Regular Seems Ill-Advised It Came From Beneath The Sea! Q: Weasel, did it come from beneath the sea? Musical Interlude Here is John Lee Hooker, Eric Clapton and the Rolling Stones with "Boogie Chillen'" Cigar of the Week This week our pal Diogenes scores again with this excellent review of the H Upmann AJ Fernandez I have said it before, you cannot go wrong with H Upmann cigars. The H Upmann AJ Fernandez is no exception. The company describes it as a "historic" Cuban-legacy brand with a fresh blend drawn from an Ecuador Sumatra wrapper leaf and a hearty interior of premium Dominican and Nicaraguan long-filler tobaccos. Excellent, Diogenes! Thank you! 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 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
