Learned'd VIII: Less Bewbs, Same Nonsense

[AppleBonker]

I'm about to go make a screwdriver

I'd be ok with a screwdriver right now.

[cellardoorv]

The xd sc 9 is pretty nice. Michele used to fire that.

Truf. It's a cute little gun, but REALLY tiny. My hand BARELY fit around it without the extended clip. I enjoyed Ryan's .40 moreso.

New Learned'd! Howdy! Just got in from a run with the pup. Well... more of a trot, his itty bitty legs. He's 10 weeks already and nearly doubled his weight from 8 weeks



Off to work, enjoy the day fellas.

[RobPaulson]

9mm is gay

i agree, after a ton of research i think i'm going to start the search for a smith wessen M&P shield 40. Single stack, well made, havent heard a single bad thing about it.

Now I just have to FIND one . . .FML.


As for toys. . . SW1911DK FTMFW.



Oh ya, and good morning errbudy =)

[King Ranzo]

HERRO PREASE.

[Hijacker]

Afternoon learned'd peeps!

[snwbrdr435]

Skip the .40 and get a .45

.22/9mm/.45 for handguns or 10mm

.38/.357/.44/.460 or.500 for revolvers

[RobPaulson]

Skip the .40 and get a .45

aware of any .45s that have same dimensions as a M&P Shield let me know, I havent been able to find a 45 that I wanted to carry, all way too big. I don't live in texas ROFL

[snwbrdr435]

I live in ma and carry a .45...

[RobPaulson]

damn kids and their snowboarding pants . . .

[alms24sebring]

I still cant find a real Super Soaker

2nd degree sunburn on my left foot from a day at the beach. I slathered FPS 50 on it! I went in the ocean but not just my left foot!

[snwbrdr435]

Chris, I'd figure you would go to the beach at night.

[MinisterofDOOM]

Was with other people, and we only had one vehicle, so I had to go when they went.

.22/9mm/.45 for handguns or 10mm

.38/.357/.44/.460 or.500 for revolvers

.45 is easier to shoot, oddly enough. I forgot which .45 I shot, Ryan would probably remember better than I.

[snwbrdr435]

There is a reason that most used guns in stores are .40...

I myself have never had a problem with it, I shoot one of my friends glock 23's better then he does. It just makes sense for me reloading wise/ammo wise to just have 9mm and .45 no need for another caliber in between. That and with my .45 ccw I can put the whole mag on a 8in paper plate at 75 yards

[TurboSauce]

I find it funny how some people believe that companies like Acura, Lexus, and Infiniti are 100% american companies with 100% different designs, and are american muscle and not 'Japanese sh*t"
No, I kid you not, there are people out there with that mentality.
I challenge them to find a vehicle from those manufacturers that doesn't have a Japanese counterpart.

Not sure what you have access to on vacation, but here is the best cure for sunburn.
You need:
- soft, thick paper towels
- white vinegar
- aloe

Soak a couple of paper towels in white vinegar (yes, it has to be white) and place them on your foot. As they dry, they will pull the heat out of your skin. Keep doing this until your skin cools off. Depending on the burn, this can take 10 minutes or two hours. The vinegar stinks so I would do this outdoors if at all possible. It is totally nworth it though, works great. If you don't have access to vinegar, you can summerge your foot in a pan of cool (NOT COLD) water and leave it there as long as possible. This method works great for other types of burns, don't see why it wouldn't work on a sunburn.

Good luck to you. You have my sympathies. Having Irish heritage, I can relate.

[93coupe]

Michele, you liked the 4" xd45 best. Same for me.

[cellardoorv]

Michele, you liked the 4" xd45 best. Same for me.

I can't remember who's I shot, or did we just rent from the range?

[RobPaulson]

yeah the XD's are nice weapons. I might have it confused with another I looked at, but arent their sub compacts double action? double action = dealbreaker for me. I'm a sonofabish when it comes to trigger preference. If my gun is out, I'm shooting someone. I don't need a 3 inch trigger pull wasting my time and throwing my shot off.

that is sound logic sir, i think you just convinced me to go 9 for my ccw.

What 45 do u carry dude?

[snwbrdr435]

The one I carry the most is oddly enough a PARA LDA CCW (anyone who has been around gun wise will find this funny) I've had multiple bad experiences with PARA's and so have many of my friends. This particular gun use to belong to a friend of mine. He had it, never could shoot it without getting slide bite and spent ALOT trying to get it to "work right". I never had an issue with it "working right" when I would use it at the range with him. Well as things go he wanted a gun I had and I never used, so we traded. It is essentially a match gun. I have never had ANY problems with it at all. It has been 100% reliable through thousands of rounds. It has the light dual action which most people throw under the bus without even trying. It just works for me for some reason and I can hit everything with it. It has been more reliable then most of the 1911's own.

Awesome. The day the sunburn happened I picked up some Aloe rub stuff that had some other things in it and applied it regularly. It helped A LOT. Once things started getting messy though (I will spare you the details and leave you with the fact that I am missing pieces of flesh) I started applying an antibiotic cream with anaesthetic in it. So far I'm doing okay. I walked around Disneyland and Universal Studios with my feet like that for a week, so the painful part is out of the way. Since I'm a massochist and can't resist a hot-tub, I even got in the hot tub with them like that (before the messiness began). It hurt like SH@T at first, but then actually felt nice once I acclimatized.

[numbnuts240]

i successfully imagined a vortigaunt chilling in a hot tub and got a good chuckle out of it.

[IBCoupe]

bishez always be imagining a vortigaunt chilling in a hot tub.

[numbnuts240]

it's my favorite gefilte fish. shalom.

[IBCoupe]

I had a fajita burrito today at work, and I thought of you.

It, too, was poorly contained by its outer wrapping, and exploded when poked.

[AppleBonker]

I missed my little Shebrew buddy.
