      The engine overheated on takeoff and they had to slam the brakes on before we ran out of runway! Good times! lmao

      Had that happen to an ex of mine who was trying to fly out of Binghamton a couple years ago. She freaked out when they put them back on the same plane, and I had to take her to fly out of Syracuse, lol. Funny thing is, the 4 digit flight # of the plane she refused to get back on, came up in one of the lotto drawings that night! No joke.

  4. has been eyeballing pups on the local shelter's website. My girl got her way with choosing our first dog (chihuahua, which has actually grown on me quite a bit, lol).....now it's MY turn to choose!

      True! Never met a lab I didn't like.

  5. has given up on pronouncing Saiga the correct way; Sy-guh, because literally every single person I've heard say it says "Say-guh". Might as well go with the flow. But I will never, I mean NEVER, say "to-mah-to". It's "to-may-to"!!

      I hear you Shooter. I haven't even had a chance to shoot my Mosin yet. Maybe next week. Fingers crossed.

    2. 22_Shooter

      22_Shooter

      Similar situation here with my G19. Had it for about a month maybe........and still haven't got to shoot it. Ugh.

  7. hates dressing up for fancy dinners. Ah well, it's only a few times of the year I have to feel completely uncomfortable for a few hours. Off to dinner with my girl in a lil bit. Hope you guys have a good Valentines Day with your lady friends, and I hope everyone makes sweaty love tonight.

  9. Heading back to NY tomorrow with my girl to pick up her car and see my nephew for the first time. I'm dreading the drive back next week. Ugh.

    1. geepelton

      geepelton

      I'm heading to Michigan tomorrow night. 15 hours drive so I feel your pain...

    2. 22_Shooter

      22_Shooter

      15? Ouch. It took us 17 to get from NY to SC, but we had a huge moving truck and trailer (slow as hell) and hit tons of construction. We're hoping to make it back down here in 11 hours on the trip back, as we'll just have 1 car and will be able to go over 65, lol.

  10. Heading back to SC later this evening. Hopefully I'll get some trigger time on the new G19 I picked up right before I left. Got tons of 9mm Brown Bear to use up!

    1. 22_Shooter

      22_Shooter

      Home sweet home!

       

      Made it here in 12.5 hours. Not bad, but it could have been quicker.

  11. Hmmm. The 10/22 thread got deleted. Interdasting.

      Lol I requested it to be deleted, it went in the wrong direction. I started a new one, hopefully this one wont go off the deep end lol

  12. Holy shit, I just got an email from one of the dog rescue organiztions I emailed. They gave a link to the available pups.....and they put the fucking puppies in a window sil for the pics. I'm such a bitch when it comes to puppies, because the way they made them look, I want to rescue all of them, hahahahaha. Well played. They know what they're doing. http://www.petfinder.com/pet-search?&shelterid=SC293&preview=1&sort=Animal+desc

      22_Shooter

      Well I lost the battle once my girl saw the 4 month old Chihuahua they had. Hopefully she doesn't turn out to be as yip-yappy as my parents' Chihuahuas! She is cute though. Tiny as hell, but probably better for our apartment living. I'm still gonna get a medium to large dog once we get a house.

    2. Paulyski

      Paulyski

      You must socialize her from day 1.

       

      They have Napoleonic Complexes being as they're so small that must never be let to develop.

    3. 22_Shooter

      22_Shooter

      No doubt, Pauly. My parents have 2 Chihuahua's. One they raised from near birth and he's got a fine temperament. The other was taken in from a former co-worker of my mom's, at about 8 years old. She's all sorts of screwed up. I always said, if she was the size of a "normal" dog and had that same attitude, she'd be BIG trouble.

  13. How much wood could a woodchuck chuck, if a woodchuck was a potato?

    1. Fallschirmjager667

      Fallschirmjager667

      or maybe you could use that potato to create an alcoholic beverage, then allow me and ben vampatella to drink it all, then feed us wood chips and see if we can chuck them

    2. Fallschirmjager667

      Fallschirmjager667

      or maybe if there was a woodchuck that chucked potatoes, would he then be a potatochuck?

    3. gregomega

      gregomega

      If he had a brother you could call him Chip and make a cartoon about it. The adventures of Potato Chuck and Potato Chip. Wait...WTF are we talking about...

      Cobra 76 two

      Actually what I need is an upper or two. Got a couple of matching (consecutive) numbered Bushmaster lowers really wanting to grow up to be whole rifles....lol.

    2. 22_Shooter

      22_Shooter

      I ended up with way more lowers than I did uppers. Got in a phase where I bought stripped lowers just to assemble them, 'cause it was fun! lol

  14. I love going to the store, buying a bunch of groceries.....and then getting home to realize I forogt the main ingredient of what I'm gonna cook tonight. F my life. This is why my girl usually does the shopping.

    1. VaiFanatic90

      VaiFanatic90

      That's why I don't even attempt that shit anymore, I get distracted buying things I want instead of what I need at the time, haha.

    2. 22_Shooter

      22_Shooter

      Yeah, luckily my girl hates my shopping skills, so she just usually does it herself. I think she got tired of the back and forths we've had:

      Her: "Did you get <insert random grocery item>?

       

      Me: Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck!

    3. 22_Shooter

      22_Shooter

      Once things are squared away back here, and I build up my bank roll a little more, hopefully I can move back. As for the heat.....it actually does feel hotter in NY. Just because everywhere you go in SC has central air, lol.

  18. I realize everyday that there's one big reason that makes moving down here from NY suck......I became an uncle for the first time right after we moved here last July, and it sucks having to see your nephew grow up through cellphone pics and videos. :(

  21. I watched "The Dictator" and thought it was pretty funny. Worth a Redbox rental when it comes out.

    1. timy

      timy

      Probably a lot funnier than the real life wannabe that we have.

  22. I'm too cheap to pay retail gunstore prices (especially around here)....but I'll be damned if I sometimes don't get the urge. Went to Bass Pro, just so I could handle a G30 to see if I like the size, before ordering online. I was fairly close to saying "Fuck it, I'll take it!". lol

    1. paprotective

      paprotective

      FWIW, every time I sold my G30 (x3 so far).. I have later looked back and said why?? the last time got me $640 though in the Obama scare.. :) had to do it..

    2. 22_Shooter

      22_Shooter

      The price difference was significant. Bass Pro had it priced at $600 something + tax. My local FFL quoted me for $550 out the door and a dealer online sells them for $525 shipped (+ $20 for my FFL's transfer fee).

    3. paprotective

      paprotective

      $550 is right on target at the moment.. $600 is tooo steep.. IMHO.

  23. I've always loved AIMSurplus for their great prices, quick/cheap shipping and great CS. But when asked why the don't carry Draco's, "The owner hates assault pistols" was the answer that was given. Pretty disappointing.

    1. 22_Shooter

      22_Shooter

      Unfortunately, I doubt it, csspecs. Bryan also said the owner feels "it doesn't fit their image". Also, the thread discussing it in their subforum on Arfcom has magically disappeared.

    2. physicsnerd

      physicsnerd

      Which is odd since they carry AR pistol uppers, AR rifles and AK rifles. Seems odd to have all of those and to suddenly object to an AK pistol.

      Been using an e-cig for just over 1 year. Well, the past 2 weeks I've been smoking regular cigs. Personal issues, stressed, etc.
