Using the term "goober" in a demeaning way is harmful to all of us goobers - the real ones, mind you - who mean no harm and would never think of trying to go one on one with you on gun stuff. <br /><br />YOu really should be careful about the words you use and how you use them.

Sadly, an all metal gun with that sort of machining and fitting requirements would probably mean a price tag of $1600. While I'd get one, I don't think they'd sell enough to justify the run.New Jovian Thunderbolthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09452246769246304612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-86815624638355097222012-02-06T07:21:36.306-05:002012-02-06T07:21:36.306-05:00I agree w/ Tam.

All the design needs is a bit more prominent set of sights. I really like shooting my 1908, it outshoots any pocket .380 or pocket nine anyone has brought out with me.Cincinnatushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10424218376882403880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-2571294350566868882012-02-05T23:12:03.525-05:002012-02-05T23:12:03.525-05:00In my locker I have an remington XP-100 in 7mm ben...In my locker I have an remington XP-100 in 7mm bench rest.<br /><br />Remington pistols...

When you are at an advanced stage of knowledge it's easy to forget what it's like to think you know everything without really realizing the limitations of your knowledge.<br /><br />I know there's plenty of old stuff of mine out there that I'd cringe at if it were dug up now because, honestly, there were plenty of times I didn't know what I was talking about and also didn't know enough to realize it. <br /><br />If there's anything worse than being wrong, it's being wrong while firmly, passionately, convinced you are right.<br /><br />RobRob Reedhttp://www.examiner.com/firearms-in-detroit/rob-reednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-1588878289738419142012-02-05T20:53:49.220-05:002012-02-05T20:53:49.220-05:00I respect the opinions of people who are experts i...I respect the opinions of people who are experts in their field.
