Celebrating Mikhail's birthday? He turned 92 yesterday. Cheers, comrade! I'm picking up a Polish AKMS underfolder tomorrow to celebrate! Also picked this up last night for a meager $150... A CZ vz. 70 in .32 ACP, basically a communist Walther PP/PPK. It has a fixed barrel and can be shot in single or double action. Essentially it is a CZ vz. 50 with some minor cosmetic changes and internal improvements... Cheers! M2

Brick I agree, that's a work of art. Do you mind sharing what you had to go through to find one, and how much it cost? Cheers! M2

Yes, but the government only pays to your home of record. Anything beyond that, even overseas, is on your dime. https://www.military.com/money/content/pcs-dity-move/types-of-moves.html

Holy shit, Simoncelli was a well-liked and rising star in the MotoGP world! At 24, his was a life cut short. What a sad loss for his family and the Gresini-Honda team! RIP, #58!

I Hate Reflective Belts
- Gun Talk
Skip the .22, while I know that round can be as lethal as any other projectile; I am still a firm believer that there are better options out there. Forget the revolvers aren't great concealed carry weapons especially for women. I know they are simpler and easier to resolve a misfire, but I think a woman who carries should carry a semi-auto and know the correct procedure to clear it if required. It's not that tough to rack a slide, I wouldn't make that an issue. Instead, check out either a decent .380 (Ruger LCP or Taurus TCP, I prefer the latter) or a small-framed 9mm like the Taurus PT709 Slim. Or, if she's willing to try it, have her shoot a full-sized 9mm or even a .45 ACP. My wife recently shot a bunch of my pistols and ended up liking the XD-45 the best (well, after the TEC-9, which is a blast to shoot but makes for a horrible carry weapon!). By the way, I agree with you on purse-carry; I don't like the idea but the wife is equally against carrying a pistol on her person. It's been an on-going debate between us and I have yet to convince her I am right (as usual). Anyhow, best to try and get her to shoot several pistols and see what she prefers. Many ranges will rent them, or find some buds and see if they're willing to make a day of it at the range if you buy ammo and lunch! Cheers! M2- Last Beer You Drank and Rate It
Had a couple of Bare Ass Blondes at DuClaw Brewing Company this evening, not bad at all. I would've had a Serum XX IPA, but I gotta fly out tomorrow... Cheers! M2- Cleared HOT - Mil Helo Mag - Complimentary Subscriptions for Rotorheads
Rick I think you meant to direct your comments to ClearedHot, not to be confused with the name of your digital magazine; "Gray Beard" is just a forum status for someone who has been on here for a while. Otherwise, let's not repeat the mistakes of the past. While we appreciate your offer of complimentary subscriptions to your new digital rotorhead publication, if things go sour once again I will not hesitate to pull the plug on this entire effort and your account. Not trying to scare you or anything, but we've been down this road before and I will not allow the same crap to happen twice. I'm sure you understand. Cheers! M2- WTF? (**NSFW**)
