  1. would ceramic bearing have any affect on a spinning reel?
  2. i like the Ruger P series a lot. the gun is bulkier and has more weight but the flip side is its very user friendly when it comes to breaking the gun down for service. as far as 1911's theres no major brand id not suggest. you could buy a Charles Daly and have a gun smith tune the piece and have a cheap master blaster. as said before the Springfield XD is a fun gun. i have the .40 and im currently shooting the gun and not cleaning it, keeping track of rounds through the gun to see how many rounds the gun will eat before it starts jamming. i have 2 coffee cans full of emptys and the gun still eats ammo without fail. i have 2 Sig P226's and 1 P239. all 3 also love to eat ammo. heres a nice vid on these guns.
  3. it depends on how the mask is set on the ip ban.
  4. the whole thing reminded me of the movie 12 Monkeys and the little boy down the well.
  5. from what i seen it for a good reason. odd, he always seemed passive.
  6. im to the point Internet opinions are just that. ask about the quality of Quantum reels........ ill never imply that Kimber firearms are flawless but i post on 2 forums dedicated to just the 1911 and the general opinion is Kimber makes a great pistol. stasher is a perfect example, he said he had problems with one and not the other. that happens. at one time i shot 500 rounds of .45 a week. if i said i didnt have problems that would be a lie but once again any short action that has to absorb all that energy will have a problem. lastly, go rent a lot of different handguns. you should be able to make up your own mind. most places have a good selection for rent. good luck, let us know what you ended up with.
  7. i assume the OP has gotten a rod already and has used it quite a bit.
  8. is that truck for sale?
  9. two posts?...............lmao theres a lot of stuff youll never own then.
  10. theres not 1 1911 on the market that wont need a barrel bushing and a spring after 2000 rounds. its the facts of life when shooting a big round. most other .45 models are the same, theres just too much recoil in the short action.
  11. ive got the Pro Carry II. its a dream to shoot. i love every part of it. i also have a Para Ordnance LTC. its also a dream. i bought my son a a Springfield GI .45 as a gift before he went to Afghanistan. we only shot a box of ammo through it but i really liked the gun as well. for the most part, i think any brand name 1911 will serve you well. they are a blast to shoot.
  12. its wednesday, at least a half hour.
  13. Nothing under a 1/2 oz, why? well, i dont catch fish with them. maybe its me but i think the heavier baits have more action.
  14. nice!!!!!!!!!
  15. if youre asking if theres any lipless baits that work at low speeds my opinion is the opposite of stringjam. i have an excalibur that the nose is destroyed on because i bounce it at slow speeds off rocks all day. but then again to each their own.
  16. but, its easy to make them almost suspend. i like using them both ways.
  17. http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1255176675/10#10 http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1255133698/1#1 http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1254927044/2#2 http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1253412722/6#6 http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1249482933/5#5 I only searched back 3 months, I'm sure there must be more. http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?action=search2 that was my search. hope i didnt put you out too much doing your search.
  18. any feed back on these?
  19. im to the point where i wont use anything under 1/2 oz. like RW said, theres no right or wrong brand. i like the red eye shad and xcalibur.
  20. some of us old farts used things called tape measures and still do every day.
  21. id also add u-joints and drive shafts to the list of parts that will fail. changing the geometry will add wear to the truck X's 1000 and when youre done with the truck it will be because the truck its self is done. with that said, id buy you a daily driver and go for it. if youre working on the truck just to get from here to there the "fun" of the truck will be gone quick. JMO
  22. my father and my son killing me in the back of the boat. the old man snapping his rod with the kung fu ninja hook-set. my father back in the boat, the day after breaking his hand, in the boat.
  23. what are you doing with the rod? id like a spinning rod that handles 3/8 oz jigs but im on the fence here with this rod.
  24. i played with the rod in the store for a while. it is less tip heavy than the Mojo, there was one model that had to have 12 or 13 guides....lol. i didnt see anything i didnt like, in the store. time will tell.
