Yeah, you did. I wouldn't "carry" a semi without a real safety, either, though I do like shooting a Glock at the range. Is that a single or double action .357? Your response: "single action hammerless. Wouldn't want it to get caught on the shirt. :)" Um... Whatever. |

You are forgiven, but your comment was the reason why I asked how one cocked a hammerless SA pistol. |

I have said for years that the reason is due to 13 round semi-auto hand guns. With a revolver, you only have six - makes you concentrate. One of my favorite gun technique books suggests taking only 6 rounds to the range, no matter what kind of handgun you're shooting. Good idea. All my kids were trained that way. In fact, when my youngest went to the Academy in SC, he noticed that the more bullets they were issues, the more the used them. He took his time, minimum shots and did well. It's the revolver training. I have a 9mm Glock, but I never carry it unless I'm in the woods. For just carrying purposes, it's a .357 mag on a .38 frame. Don't you mean that the other way around? My Highway Patrolman shoots .38's but is a .357 magnum frame (and shoots them!). |

Smithers III wrote: There are many public and private lakes (including those run by the C of E's ) that are now allowing or hiring hunters to kill the Canadian Geese that are no longer migrating due to people feeding them. These geese have taken over coves and lakes that would have been a brief stopover on their migratory path, until people thought it would be cute or helpful to feed them. I don't think that's an accurate assessment. Migratory and non-migratory Canada geese are different subspecies. Branta canadensis maxima being the larger non-migratory goose. http://www.esatoday.com/arresident.html Goose dogs are the only way to go. Why I don't like 'em: "An average 10 pound adult goose will generate its own body weight in excrement each month ! Excrement entering ponds via storm runoff can cause warm weather algae blooms. These blooms are unsightly and often treated with algaecides. As the algae quickly dies, dissolved oxygen may be greatly reduced, stressing or killing pond fish. " Dogs don't work. My brother had dogs on the golf course he managed. The geese would just fly into the water when the dog came. The dog couldn't swim fast enough to scare the geese. Then my bro' got a radio controlled boat. They had a blast with that, chasing the geese all around the water. But, eventually they hit a goose. Goodbye boat. |
