yep, thats the current plan. Get the wife comfortable with the .22 and hope she sees that it’s not much more then a glorified BB gun. She came from a household that didnt have guns, hence the reactions..

Interesting and good to know.. My AR is loud as fuck, I feel bad for anyone sharing the bench with me.

Yeh, where I live, realistically my only choice is a range. You cant get out of the car at the range without wearing hearing protection. Some shlub always has a high caliber rifle they are shooting off. Someone had a M2 fitted for Semi-Automatic the last time I went.. That dam thing was loud as hell.

Yeh smart guy, what about Kitt from Knight Rider? That car was a killing machine.. Game, Set, Match..

Came here to post that.. My son (9-10) is a Nerf Gun fanatic, and I was starting to get a bit worried. I have a small collection of firearms in my house (9mm in the bedroom, and a few rifles in a safe in the basement). I took out all of the rifles and the 9mm one night, and let him touch and hold them. He was…

Yep, I get it.. I think people for the most part are short sighted though. IE, i’ve heard people say that we could conserve our way down to closing the majority of the coal plants in the country.

The market will generally move in that direction anyway, IE, if consumers are offered two equal products, and one uses less electricity, they will buy the one that uses…

This drives me nuts. The whole ‘Conserve Electricity’ thing is a waste of time. As our civilization grows, more people come out of poverty around the world, and technology increases, we will need WAY more electricity. There is no ‘Conserving’ our way out of it. Sure, you want to save some money, go ahead, turn off…

Awesome, finally a game telling the story from the right point of view. The legitimate government, and not a bunch of religious zealots.

Soldiers who allegedly hid the gold being upset? Uh, the Gulf war was in 1990-91. If they haven’t had a chance to come back for it by now, then they are probably, how should I say this diplomatically?... ‘Dead’. They probably got turned into pink mist by a A-10 25 years ago.
