Well, the S&W 500 looks more like a 45-70 opened up to .500, to me. That gun weighs 72 oz, or three pounds more then most handguns. I think that may just be too big for a handgun. 40 oz is a very heavy big gun to carry around. I'm not sure the extra 30 oz, and size, is worth the benefits of...

http://www.gunblast.com/Paco.htm Just started playing with the above. See how it works. I have a .224 barreled Colt Trooper, that is currently being gripped, and reworked by a master smith. This tool makes sure the bullets fit. The pistol shot thumbnail at 10 yards with high vel ammo...

http://www.marvelprecision.com/beauty.htm While I haven't used one, the Kimber 22lr conversion is supposed to be accurate, as well. S

Good article. Rifling parameters have always been rather clear as far as twist for caliber, and bullet length. Only our government had problems with that, and they wanted a bullet to be unstable, so on entry, it would tumble, causing more damage then a regular non-expanding bullet. I like...

It's weird, Clocker, that it's so hard to find a really accurate 9mm. The major problem is usually trigger pull. Brownings are famous for being difficult to get a target trigger. Don't know about CZ's, but what I like about 1911's is so many parts are made for them, that if you need...

I got to the point that I had spent 3 grand, or, actually, 5500 bucks on their machines, and the POS had crippled PCI bus, and, crippled ide channels, to the tune of half the industry standard, paying nearly twice as much. The dell I bought at the same time, with a 440 BX mobo, is still and 400...

Clocker: I reloaded, in the 80's, for a number of VERY good shooters. One had a brand new sig 9mm. I remember loading the 115 hps at well over max book specs, trying to give the guy a real handful. Turns out, the rounds didn't even CYCLE his gun. I had to eat the entire batch, replace the...

Clocker: The truth is, as cheap as 9mm is, it isn't worth reloading, and, when reloading, the damn bullets are too small for my big, fat fingers to easily seat. I might buy a Sig, or CZ 9mm, but just don't see a reason. I like big bullets, and 45 Super is my minimum caliber, other then 22lr...

Yes: No scsi, worse audio, I'm waiting to see what the real limits are on this machine, when the real mac speed guys get a hold of it. Wouldn't be shocked if they pulled a G3, cheap chip trick again... gs

Clocker: Hate to say this, but I hate 9mm because I could never find one that shot as well as a Sig Sauer, BDA 45, or, a Detonics, or any, really good, 1911. Roomer has it that Sig 210's used to shoot, and the CZ 75 is supposed to be a great value, and accurate. I'd rather save for a...

"glocks=tactical tupperware" :mrgrn: gs

Most orangs are well endowed. They have the right idea... :wink:

NO! The answer is aids. We have too many people, and need more animals. Kill humans, and let animals live. s

Looks like a CZ 9mm to me. Any specs on that gun? I've just converted all my 45's to 45 Super, thanks to a great pistol smith. OH, I mean, I'm loving life. gs

Do any of these warranty changes affect scsi drives? Seagate Cheetahs in particular? gs

The English Computer paper that I can't spell, has pointed out the problem with the G5's is the os is 32 bit, running on a 64 bit processor. An emmulated OS? In other words, true to form, Apple released the computers without an OS that takes full advantage of the processor design. :roll...

Imagine I'm in Japan? Hello!!! I married Ho Hae Kang, a Korean girl living in Osaka. I've been to Osaka 3 times? Yes, and, I have survival Japanese, sort of. I remember walking places Gaijins never go, looking at advanced electronics, 10 years ahead of the stuff shipped to the US. In...

Tea: Try the fermented bananas. Makes understanding MSFT much easier, or, at least, less painful... gs :mrgrn: :wink: :evil:

Mer< I don't care where you live, I'm only following the strippers :mrgrn: I have one from Hawaii I should post pics of, and, one day, walking through a place to get to work, I saw a girl that made all the ones you posted look like a boy. OMFG she was :excl: :excl: :excl: I had a tennis...

gs Buck: So anytime we want to post strippers in Missouri, we can? :wink: :mrgrn:

Tannin: You may have a point. Other then baoging down when doing Photoshop, and posting pics to the net, this machine is just about all I need. It's still WAY faster then most, thanks to the scsi X 15 raid 0, and, I have to make sure I can transfer that to a new machine. gs

Splash: Help!!!

Spash: HELP!!! gs

Where is Splash when I really need him? :cry: I need help on this question... gs

OK: Well thanks. For us guys not in the computer bizz, this is great news, or news to read, or.etc. I just remember P3 300's being 1200 dollars, and thank God for AMD. gs Monopolies SUCK

OK: Here's part of the video theory. Quartz Extreme is supposed to be a 3D os. Isn't it possible that the lack of video ram really cripples the OS impressions, and games on the mac? Native for those giant LCD's is 1900X or something like that. I was going to try lower resolutions, since in...

Thanks Buck. I've gone through my services and turned off all the stuff I don't use. With my mobo only having two slots, 512 is pretty much what I'm stuck with, unless I want to replace both. Greg

Kind of wondering if 2000 gets much faster if it goes from 512 mb to 1 gig, 2 gig, 4 gig? What's the best bang for the buck level? GS

A real Apple deal. Take a really fast gpu, and cripple it by using 64 mb of slow ram :roll: Oh well, that's life, and Apple. gs

Loading Safari, and other programs took a long time. They had a really slow internet connection as well. I watched some movie trailers, and the included speaker is terrible, video quality very good, at certain resolutions. I noticed at 1024X the picture was poor, lettering fuzzy. It likes...

It's kind of funny. They seem to work ok. Still, no blinding OS speed, it just doesn't feel like that much of a jump in speed. I wonder if the OS uses VM too much, slowing it down. I also wonder if with 8 gig of RAM the machine would be really fast. It could also be GPU limited, since both...

Clausthiser is my favorite non A beer. Virgin Planters Punch is also quite tasty. s

Congrats :excl:

Yep. Got that from the poll. Gs

Should we vote for ourselves? s

Well, I bought a switch that allows me to use the same keyboard and monitor for both computers, at a double tap of one key. I've connected the raid box to it, and back up files to that box, through intranet. gs

Thank you for the nomination. I accept. gs

Good doesn't do them justice. They are incredible. Courses they play are narrow, long, and really hard, as a general rule. You would need a commando team to get most players out of the ruff on some of the courses they play. The shortest hitter on the tour is long by regular standards, since...

A good attorney can win this one. The USGA, like the NCAA, have their collective heads so far up they can't see light. Guys make millions for their schools, and the athletes have to beg to eat a proper diet. I have no problem with a Mike Jordan being paid what he's worth in college, while...

THAT WAS REALLY COOL :excl: THANKS GS

Couple quick notes. Entrapment is what police do to criminals. It's when they give someone a chance to do a crime they are inclined to do anyway. Giving a non-drug user, or dealer, a chance to make 100 million dollars on a cocaine deal, when he was never previously involved is pretty much...

Yes, we have had a couple stereo "deinstallers" nailed doing the same thing in this area. gs

Just look at my icon for my view of how such things should be handled... :evil:

CAN WE SPELL: "ALARM" :?: Hello :excl: I've found that my alarm has deterred 100% of attacks on my car. In Hawaii, I'd always have to leave the car, with either surfboard inside, or at the break. The local scum would always be trying to screw with your car, just to screw with you, and or...

E_dawg: That turn the other bun stuff is mis-represented, and mis-quoted. It's very easy to do that kind of stuff when you are the son of God. However, he wasn't very tolerant of Pharisees invading His temples. If you look at Christ's actions on earth, they are a bunch of "do as I say, not as...

Clocker: Why are you selling it/ gs

e dawg: That's normal :lol: As for the story: :jumpin: :council: :rofl:

This guy is VERY lucky Lowell is such a nice Orangutan. A 300 pound Tea, is quite capable of ripping your arms off, and twisting you into unGodly shapes. Sounds like he just wanted out to play a little. :eekers: gs

Between the increase in resolution, and the new ability to play DVD's while working, I've been thinking about another monitor. I have an SBS box that I used with my mac, sitting in storage. Anyone have a decent PCI video card, for DVD stuff, quality only, they would recommend? Don't want to...
