Re: West Houston hosting a 4th of July Blowout event

I had a blast out there. A lot of hard work went into setting it up and running it. There were some awesome stages out there.

I can't see where you got the idea that he thought it was.

This IS a smoking deal. Want to take a road trip down to Houston?

Consider it gone, just waiting for the guy to come pick it up

Crossbreed holster for J-frame

The title says it all. I don't have enough posts on here to sell anything...so it's free! I don't like it, so I never use it! If anyone in the Houston area promises to use it, they can have it. You have to meet me in the Tomball area though. I'm not spending $15 on gas to give away a holster.

Re: 243 vs. 270 vs. 30.06

.243 is a great deer rifle. If I had to go heavier, I'd pick up a .308. Heavier still and I'd grab a .300 win mag. The ballistics of a .30-06 aren't enough of an improvement over a .308 to warrant the long case and extra recoil, IMO. That being said, I've used a .30-06 for hunting for years and hav...

Re: Anybody shoot "Thunder Tactical Shooters" IDPA in Conroe?

Alright well I plan on going out there with my father for the first time this coming Wednesday. It's listed on the schedule as a "Carry Gun Fun “BUG” Match" but I don't have the necessary equipment to shoot my carry gun (S&W 642) at this match. Do you think they'd have a problem with m...

Re: WTS WASR-10 (AK) Houston

Any interest in a trade or partial trade for a Bushnell Elite 4200, Swarovski 6x36, or custom Mauser in .308?

Re: Pictures of your "Black Guns"

Thank you. It's a CZ 750. I just picked it up the other day and haven't had a chance to shoot it yet. I might have to look into one myself - I can't justify the expense of an Accuracy International, but this might be just the ticket. Keep us posted on how she shoots. Friday was about the 4th or 5th...

Re: Here we go again......

Awesome pictures and write up! Why can't you take a shotgun out to that tree stand and just blast the boar with a slug or buckshot? :headscratch

Also, you can save money and/or create a unique configuration by assembling parts from various sources.
Is that true? I haven't heard that before.

Re: Wrong sign @ Wing Stop

Thanks for the info guys. I was mainly wondering about a pool hall I visit pseudo-frequently. I'll know what to look for next time I go.

Re: Wrong sign @ Wing Stop

I apologize if this has been answered before, but how do you check somebody's TABC permit (over/under 50%)? It would be useful to know whether or not I can carry BEFORE I leave the house.

Re: AR15 lowers

All the forged receivers I've handled or own seem pretty alike to me. Either I'm looking at the wrong thing or the quality is pretty even for all the major manufacturers.
