That is the best representation of the 42's diminutive size. Up until now, I thought my S&W Bodyguard was safe. .. The laser on the BG is a tiny bit of a novelty. I'd much prefer a set of Trijicons, it especially makes sense on a Glock. Though I'm assuming the 42 will take a different sight than standard. ..? What was the price at your LGS on the 42? I've got a buddy who has one and apparently the trigger pull is different, IIRC it's stiffer. Dig your RTF 17. I have that in a G22.

Never was one for the cool crowd MissB.  Been working 55 hours a week and gettin up at 5 in the AM. Kind of puts the ki-bosh on some of the extra curriculars. 
15 hours a week of over time ain't nuthin to sneeze at tho.
Finally off temp status and just in time for production season. They are so far behind on orders, it's OT for the forsee-able. I will have next Saturday off though, daughters bowling team made it to division. She was sixth out of 63 . . . and that on a bad day! Then if they do well there, then the week after is state. Ah well, back to catching up the other 7 pages.

Off work today. Resting.
I've had a couple of Mini-14s and liked them, only got rid of my last one because it was one of the first run models, made in the '70s, and parts became virtually nonexistent for it. When it broke the extractor it was going to be a $100+ custom made part (that might or might not work). Sold it to a guy who had a couple of parts guns and he fixed it. That was about 10 years ago and AFAIK it's still running today. Feeling better, MissB. You're too good to me.

I have one. It came with an 18½" Cyl barrel, a stock and a pistol grip. I found a used 28" modified 500 Mossberg barrel, and covered it with camo-tape to hunt with. |

Yeah, it's actually my wife's. She bought it with birthday money a few years ago because she wanted a HD shotgun. She knows how to use it in case of serious need, but doesn't like shooting it recreationally. My buddy just got one himself, and tacticooled it up, and as a lark we went skeet shooting and found out its the most fun you can have with your pants on. I'm thinking of selling a few mosins (I have 5, only two are must keep) IOT get one of the Mossberg 500s that walmart sells with wood furniture as a fun gun and maybe keep an 18.5 inch barrel on it for a secondary HD gun. Somehow, I think if I had to used my vz58 in a HD scenario here in SWMO, I'd lose that rifle for an indefinite period of time. |

I like all guns much as I like all of my family. Just cause I like It, doesn't mean it's not a POS. It falls into the same category to me as its namesake and their granddaddy, interesting and sometimes useful but; not the answer IMO. My advice is for us to keep our feelings on the subject out of the public domain.
I'm a Mossberg fan myself. That alone will keep me in this thread! |

Sorry guys, all MissB has for beer @ home is Budweiser; keep a case or so around in my SHTF supplies. Never know when some poor fellow might wander by & fancy a cold beverage.

Good evening Sa/oU what's shaking around here. Did I hear Mini 14, That might move us from unpopular to outcast.
I might know a friend who might have one he swears by and not at. He feels just fine with the brick heavy steel Ruger mags. he hits what he is shooting at, eventually. Hey MissB big hug here.

Good morning Sa/oU friends & acquaintances!
Terry, extremely relieved your kicking this cold/flu. JC, hope you find a good home for Gretchen soon. Squeeze cunning little Everett for MissB. Dpmmn, you must be exhausted already, 3:30 a.m. wake up call gotta be brutal. Hope you get caught up on rest soon.  Nothing exciting here, usual day in the grind. May get stuck grabbing a friend's delinquent 20 yr old daughter later today & giving her a ride. She goes to court this afternoon, will see if they release her from jail. The kid is a total waste of oxygen, completely useless, FSA the whole 9 yards. It saves my gf from driving all the way into town with a 2 yr old, find parking, dragging the baby around in this cold weather, etc. She was all stressed out over it so I offered if the kid will stick around until I get out of work will drop her off. They only live up the street from me & gf's husband is a life long friend. I'm tooooo nice of a person sometimes, we shall see how all that works out. Off to tackle end of the month report, blow out some files & have a overall productive day. BIG hugs from here!  |

I got this one two weekends ago. When a wife or one of the kids get sick they come here. It's the climate I guess.
Usually rent the whole floor they are staying on. Sucks to be rich huh. Pretty sure they are not eating the cafeteria food.
Some actually own homes here. It's fairly common to see this plane here. 
Good job on the mercy mission bailing the neighbors spawn out of the hole MissB. To all of you out there in Sa/oU land. Stressing living and getting along. I wish you all a great nights rest.

For some odd reason, my phone wouldn't post here since the night before last. I'd write up a post and hit submit. It would refresh the page, but wouldn't upload my text. Out of desperation I used the surefire IT cure. "Unplug it, plug it back in". After I reinstalled my battery, opening Arfcom revealed I wasn't logged in. . . Though I hadn't logged out and had access to my subscriptions and IMs.
