FBI uses remington golden saber JHP, at least the few FBI guys I know say thats what they are issued.

only reason I can figure.

both are sold companies with solid followings . I use dobyns and see no reason to switch to anything else. (never used a powell though)

LMAO I want to see the list of LEOs carrying FMJ. that will be a new one on me.

snook........ yeah we still the best gig going..... but that is also like saying you are the best ballerina in all of montana. We aint what we used to be, right, wrong or indifferent. but for the most part I agree with the words of your post, just not the angle from which it comes. I have read enough of your post to know, nobody expects you to understand any point of view other than your own. So without shattering forum rules I will stop there.

Glock 19 on the hip, and a browning 9mm in the console of truck. there are many reasons to carry. 1. the world is crazy and getting crazier 2. it is the one right that can save your or others life 3. I like the 19 because of size, capacity, and ease to find mags, ammo, ect. 4. I have had employees with guns pulled on them, breakins, ect ect. the G19 is the most popular carry firearm for a reason and I have not been able to dispute that since I have owned one.

yeah 5 could be young, but it could be the right age too. when our grandparents were 5 they were feild dressing deer...... just because the so called elites of society has changed doent mean society as a whole has changed. and for the most part if you werent born and raised down south then you probably just dont understand. That doesnt make us stupid, uneducated, or backwards, it just means we leave the world's BS where it belongs.

total gimmick to me. it will be hard pressed to ever surpass, IMO, the hollow point. hollow points are the safest(for the innocent bystander), most effective round out there.... especially seeing the heavy for caliber rounds made by underwood and others.

I guess I am a "closet gun nut" I enjoy shooting, the extra training, shopping for ammo,watching balistic videos, ect ect . I always wanted my ccw and finially took the class last year. I didnt want to carry with just the CCW class behind me.... I took extra classes, and still want to take more (never can be good enough). really look forward to a force on force class, hope to take it late this year. My new years resolution this year is to carry everytime I leave the house. Guns in my mind are the "coolest"/most important thing you will ever own that hopefully nobody ever sees.

Raider I always enjoy your take on things!!!!

I think when mike sprays what little color is added he just hangs them up by a coat hanger.

acceptance is the first step...... I am too, but still in trying to be in denial for the most part Colion Noir's "wish a motherF@#$%R would" video sums up the folks I am talking about, which I doubt you are apart of THAT group.

while you are mostly right...... I have to say, come to memphis and say its NOT ran by idiots, I dare you, lmao. Memphis is probably top 5 in worst ran cities in 'Merica.

but where is that? I don't think I can drive there, even from Arkansas.

lol, couldn't you just say, "yes they are wet"?

the problem with the anti- gunners is the same issue with the pro-gunners.......... there are so many crazies on both sides that is makes the normal/sensible people look bad. I know ccw holders that I am scared they are allowed to carry.... not because they are badasses, its because they are idiots who have watched a few john wayne movies I am progun btw.

so the "covered slips" are on dry ground, correct? the explanation on the front page just says boat slips which means wet to me.

also since many first timers ask and I didnt have exact numbers april 27-may 3, 7 nights = $1053.37 april 30- may 4, 5 nights (actaul planned dates) = $865.98 includes tax and cleaning you can whack those up anyway you want with your roomates (hopefully everyone can divide by 4)

does anyone know the exact nature of the electric hook ups? I see in the 1st post about the docks and such. I would prefer not to leave my boat in the water all week. can you pull up to cabin and run an extension cord out the window? does the parking lot have hooks ups?

not sure I even own a rod shorter than 7'3

Gotcha and understood. past the hair on the tail and line tie, you MIGHT mask off the "joint rods" just to make sure paint doesnt cause them to "stick" if I remember right, there is not much color between the joints other than the raw epoxy. so IMO getting 360 degree paint coverage inside the joint is a non factor for me but I also understand your wanting it too.

and PS to the above barely understandable "mispelt rambles" dont for get to buy an Alabama fishing license. google it and you can print it right there before you even leave the house.

so if you cant tell by the above ramble....... Yes, I will be eastbound and down, 8 wheels rollin!

here goes what I do, your mileage may vary..... I am a boat so I will spare you that end of it. 1. whatever it cost you to get there, gas for your car, extra for flats/emergency. Being you are in WV I say $400 but I dont know what you drive. 2. your cut of the room ... plan on around your end being $300 if you stay all dates and split 4 ways. I say this just in case we dont resever enough to get full discount, plus a little padding never hurts. 3. $100 or so for food for the week, I eat GOOOD on the water. go to walmart and bring your own bread and meat, ritz crackers,peanut butter, goldfish, beef jerky, nutter butters, rice crispy treats, assorted nuts, slim jims, and assorted cheeses and sausages. at least 2 but probably 3 or 4, 24packs of diet coke, 1 case of bottled water...many people last year ate breakfast at a local dive, if you do you will have to account for that, I ate breakfast on the water while runnning the trolling motor... BRING YOUR OWN TP, hotel/resort TP is rough after the first 2 days..... you maybe able to do it cheaper, but nothing is worse than being hungry while trying to have fun, and will surprise yourself how much you actually snack if you dont plan on it. maybe bring $40 extra to buy/trade baits,jigs, assorted tackle that you may run out of. 4.not really a need for boater gas... I had folks offer last year but refused to take any. I am there to explore and fish, not charge folks gas.... and if we trailer down to Pickwick we gonna make some long runs, its just part of the game. 5. whatever it cost to get you back home, I incuded this in the first gas number in #1. some may see or do things different, but I like to plan and be prepared... my biggest expense is what I buy in preparation which I didnt talk about. I buy extra line, jigs,plastics, hooks, ect ect before the trip so I have everything for a week, I pack EVERYTHING in my truck and floating barge I call a boat. I could probably survive a month on what I bring, but I never WISH I would have packed something I left either. you are away from home for a week, there is no running back to your "tackle room/closet" until you get back home. Thats how I veiw it....... plus as a boater I can store more so if a hot plastic is catching them I will have extra to share......, until I get low then your on your own, LMAO. so for just travel(depending on MPG), lodging, food for the week and casual perdiem. I say I would have $1000 in my pocket when I left the driveway as a non boater but that is ME and I do things different and dont want to have to worry, blown out tire, ect. maybe other non boaters will chime in and let you know thier experience as well. I know jon (bassisaddicting) last year brought his own groceries and tackle room with him too! always better safe than sorry, and have everything covered, both in tackle and extra "oh sh#t" money if you ask me. and dont forget its a week long fishing trip, TREAT YOURSELF! but as for a boater I do: $400 travel gas $100-$150 groceries I eat good on the water! $400 lodging (I am going early) $500 boat gas/oil (I only burned $100-$150 all week last year, but I like to be prepared plus I see longer runs this year for whatever reason and I have a bigger boat this year) couple hundo oh crap fund....... raffle money..... tackle the storm donation money so the bottomline is use this outline and plan for YOU. how much gas will you burn to get there? add a tank to that just in case..... How much can you eat while fishing for 8,10,12 hours? add a few more snacks to that...... add in your cut of the room...... gas to get back home(you have the extra gas money in case you misfigured) I didnt include "entertainment" simply because after all day fishing, eating with the crew and chatting for 15 minutes, then making the tackle/food prep for the next day, all you want to do is SLEEP trust me!
