Just got first estimate for a sprinkler system. Five zones, front
and back for $2950. That was a
surprise. I would have guessed $8-10K. That's with three year
warranty. Surprise, surprise. Will see
what the next estimate looks like.



Oh, you should definitely go for it...yeah...

You know something about sprinkler systems?

Now go to You Tube. Startling.

You call "About 861,000 results" only 'a few'. Wow.

I know someone with a custom CZ very similar to the one Harree claims
to have owned. It's very reliable and accurate.

I'm sure it is. I was simply making a point to Harree. 'Problem with
Kimber' in You Tube gets "About
8,590 results" compared to "About 861,000 results" for 'problem with CZ'

That's quite startling!


Yeah, the 8500 Kimber hits have to do with problems with Kimber
firearms. Almost all the 851,000 results you cited for CZ have nothing
to do with CZ firearms.


Hell, all guns can have a problem. My Ithaca Mdl 37 20ga jammed first time
out pheasant hunting. Had a small piece of metal from the machining stuck
in the action. Do not know where it was hiding, as I cleaned shotgun after
buying. Then the worse POS I still have is a Remington semiauto 30.06. Is
known as the jam-o-matic.




I haven't had any serious issues with any of the firearms I've owned. I
did have a short-term issue with my Mini 14 going into a sort of
autofire mode, but I fixed that with a couple of turns of a trigger
adjustment screw I had installed.

I'm not a fan of the "1911" model or the .45 ACP ammo. The typical .357
MAG round is more of a stopper when you need it, and you can fire .38
Special rounds in a .357 MAG revolver.


.45 is better in most situations. The 357 goes through the perp, couple
walls and kills or injure someone a long ways away. .45 has lots of knock
down power and will not travel a long ways. Best on a 357 for defense is
hollow base wad cutters loaded base out. Super hollow point. Friend was a
cop and shot at a robber and the shot upwards so would not hit any cars on
highway 101. About a mile later went through the sheet metal wall and hit
a women in the neck. She was injured but not killed. He has flash backs
every time he goes by the building.



I use Hornady Critical Defense ammo in my .357 MAG revolver, six in the
cylinder and six in this speed loader:

Here's a vid on the ammo:

I've shot a few of these rounds for practice, but when I shoot targets,
I use far less expensive ammo. The Hornady is about twice as much as my
ball practice ammo.
