[quote=Allan from Fallbrook]SDR: You haven’t lived till you’ve fired old “Ma Deuce”, the Browning M2 .50cal. Second most fun thing you can do without taking your clothes off (first most fun thing is jumping out of an airplane, another activity I highly recommend).

Allan I can’t believe you said that. You have no idea how many times I’ve said those (almost) exact words. My only difference was I said it was the MOST fun I’ve had with my clothes on (I’ve not jumped out of a perfectly good airplane yet). I’m also a big fan of the SAW, although I shoot left handed and the cloud of spent cartridges and belt clips being ejected into my field of vision can be a bit of a distraction.

I’m surprised your S&W gave up the ghost after only 25,000 rounds. I’ve seen some the pros use with more than 100,000 rounds through them and they’re still going strong. You sure what went wrong with it wasn’t fixable? Almost everything on those guns is repairable/replaceable, even the frame (new serial # of course).

As for the OP, totally agree with you SDR, and when I move to Maryland this summer I’m planning to teach my wife to shoot as well. She’s terrified of my gun collection right now, but I have a feeling once she’s more comfortable with them she’ll feel a little differently.

As for home defense I kinda like the scary dog option. Nothing like a snarling animal that moves a lot faster than you do to instill fear. The burglar doesn’t need to know that the dog just wants to lick them to death.

Wow. I’ve been reading and actively participating in discussions on this site for almost 2 years now, and I think this is the first insult I’ve seen hurled at TG. Imagine, one of our most salient and amusing authors described as a moron! And by someone who has only been posting for 1 day! Burns, you clearly havn’t been lurking long enough on this site, because TG’s post was clearly in character, where he always injects a little humor, often off-color.

I love San Diego for the people too, and while there aren’t many museums here, if they called me tonight and told me they were changing my orders from Bethesda to San Diego I think we’d throw a party. I’ve been living in LA for almost three years now and I have no love at all for this city. I wonder how LA would score on your criteria. People love places for different reasons, and if you don’t care for San Diego you can have my spot at Bethesda. How are your obstetric skills?

NAVADMIN 281/08 – FUNDED MOVE FOR RENTERS DISPLACED BY LANDLORD FORECLOSURE

My JAG attorney showed me this as well. If I was going to be here for another year I would certainly exercise this option, but since I PCS in July anyway I would be moving twice in 5 months, one of them a cross country deal. I think we’ll be fine.

Nice spam hari. How could anyone even remotely familiar with this website and the people who post here think linking something like this is a good idea?

Got another NOD on Feb 10th. We paid the rent, likely just going to ride this out until April, make that our last rent and negotiate the security deposit for the last 2 months. I think we have much more time than that before a trustee sale. Looks like the landlord’s going to be a prick and just pocket my rent money. It’s the price I pay for the moral high ground, and I can live with myself. Not my problem if the landlord can’t.
