One of my Texas buddies...
....in fact, my only Texas buddy (we were buddies in NE Florida, and we
both moved), says to me, "So, why are you messing around with AR rifles? Are you expecting Ebola-contaminated Muslims to cross into Maryland from Mexico?" That's apparently the latest conspiracy the righties in Texas are spreading, according to my buddy...disease-carrying Muslims are walking into Texas from Mexico, dropping copies of the koran as they go. I hadn't thought of that. Ebola-contaminated Muslims, crossing from Mexico into Maryland. Actually, I'm "messing around" with AR rifles because, unlike most other firearms, they're relatively easy to customize and "improve." Just about any part can be swapped out for a part you like better, either for functional or cosmetic purposes. The only "machine work" (and I use that term loosely) I've had to do was shave down the front sight/gas block. -- “My heart goes out to the people of Ebola.” Sarah Palin |

Picking them up and putting them in the trash Certainly, after they are dead. We don't litter. One of my buddies shoots empty 12 ounce beer and soda cans that he fills with red-colored water. Hitting one of those from 25 yards with a pistol fired freehand ain't easy. 75 feet? It is if you have the right weapon and some skill. |

We gather up all the "dead" soda bottles and cans, put them in separate bags, and toss them in the appropriate recycle bins at the county "trash out," which is about five miles away and on the way home. -- “My heart goes out to the people of Ebola.” Sarah Palin |

Picking them up and putting them in the trash Picking up and putting in the recycling? If you live more than about 500 miles from the place where they actually recycle the plastic, it is a wash environmentally. Most of the plastic is burned in the waste to energy incinerator here, whether it came from the trash stream or the recycle stream. The only recycling that actually makes economic sense this far from the recycler is metal. Recyclers don't really want "dirty" bottles anyway like the ones I find floating in the water. I do wonder how Harry is picking up all the bits of plastic from the bottles he explodes. I can see him getting the big pieces but it is the little ones that are a danger to wildlife. Our range does not allow exploding targets. Bottles count? |
