GOOD MORNING! TO YOU TOO
We had a great weekend! I got a lot accomplished. Starred in a television commercial for the Chebbie Dealership, cleaned the house, cut the grass, got the transmission out of the car, went to a fall outdoor wine tasting yesterday afternoon with the Corvette Club. Now I need some rest. Pete -- give me a shout when you want me to bring this transmission up to you... that is if you still want to do it. I understand if you got too much going on. I'm typically in the same boat. I think you still have my phone number, if not I'll email you separately. Have a great day all. |

Good Morning Gurus. Rainy and usually warm today. High near 78. Possibility of violent storms later today.
Productive weekend. Final grass cutting, outside is ready for winter, put down 9 bags of fertilizer and 8 bags of Ironite, drained the ponds and put away patio furniture. Damn I hate winter! Vettes are stored |

Those are much better than a fall indoor wine tasting. If you fall indoors your have a much better chance of hitting your head on something. |

I could use some high winds around here. Some critter killed and ate a dove. Now I have dove feathers all over my mulch. A good howling wind would blow it all away for me.

We have Harbor Country in Michigan, the soil and climate are ideal for wine making. Tabor Hill is one of the Winerys that supplies the White House and is hugh. Probably no where near Napa Valley but still impressive. Last weekend did a 40 mile tour of Michigan Winerys Free wine tasting, chesse and crackers. Great time, hope to do it again next weekend.
We need a Corvette Club! |

Ah.. Mad Dog 20/20...
Bill the guys that I know that have S&W 9mm pistols are not real happy with them. S&W makes great revolvers! Seems like they are ammo sensitive. Went out target shooting Saturday with Erin some of those guys are now using Ruger SRT-8 in 9mm and 40 cal. Nice feel. I shoot H&K and Glocks they are ugly but every time you pull the trigger they go Bang. BTW I think the new Ruger is less expensive then the S&W. Used a S&W Model 39 in the service jambed alot, not good in our line of work. We solved the problem with reworked 45's from WW2. The Marine Corp did them for us. Can't beat a 1911. Everybody and their brother makes 1911's now. |

I had to go cheapo, bought the Sigma, should have bought the SRT. But, I was out the door for $260, ya get what you pay for. The Sigma's a POS but does go bang, usually off target because of the trigger pull. At least, it's given me my first experience at gunsmithing. The trigger now pulls evenly and doesn't feel like sandpaper. I just got a new spring for the slide to further reduce the pull but haven't put it in yet (and that may requtre premimum ammo). Been lookin' at the new Glock, 40, that has the laser built into the rear sight. |

Erin wants a laser. I guess I'm really old school-point and shoot. Laser might make my think instead of react. Old habits and training are hard to break.
BTW Erin out shot 6 police officers Sat. afternoon at 21 feet. Her center mass hits didn't deviate more than 1". I think thats cool! Police guys were a little pissed. Kids. |

Sigmas have the same style action as the Glocks, matter a fact I think S&W was sued because of that action. Anyway, the sear as you probably already know is the key for a smooth trigger pull and spring. Tolerances on the Sigma are all over the place. Remove too much and it will fire all by itself or when dropped or became an automatic, not good. |

Yea, the sear had freekin' machine marks across it, unbelieveable. Luckly, 2000 grit removed them and Mother's Chrome & Mag Wheel polish does a nice job. The othet thing is that the piece holding the sear rubs on the polymer (more sandpaper feel). I'll trade the Sigma in when I gat another, live and learn, you do get what you pay for. But with 16 rounds, I can get 3 in an intruder easily, even with this POS. When I get the next one, I'll go from 9 to 40. I'm only interested in knocking someone down in the house. |

We had a home invasion 9 or 10 years ago. Time flies when your having fun! The problem I had was which weapon to choose. M-4, AK, 45 or 357 magnum. I chose the M-4. 3 of them didn't shoot any of them, I just....tortured them a little bit...Ok a lot. My peace loving wife was really upset with me. What can I say? sorry it won't happened again, and I'll clean up the blood. That was the night I had to set her down and explain exactly what I did in the Navy.
Her response was I'm glad you knew what to do! but Ron..you where enjoying it! |

Good Morning CGs!
Oh my goodness, is this what happens to chat when I'm not around? Sheesh Had a rough night...lots of crying, potty breaks, puking, and diaper changing...and that was just for the wife. Bill, I've never shot the sigma, but everything I read said it's a pos, just like you said. The new M&P is supposed to be an outstanding gun, I'm thinking of picking one up. But they aren't cheap. Haven't run in over a week, so I'm hoping to get a short one in. I wanted to go last night, but it was storming like a mofo. Hope everyone has a great day! Matthew |

I've used the M&P 40cal. Fired about 100 rounds through it. Hallow points did stove pipe. Ball ammo fired fine. Fit and finish was par with S&W.
Opps this reading like a gun blog |

Wow guys....good morning. I don't own a hand gun...but I have considered one, just to have "in case". My little brother has like 30....revolvers, semis and even one single shot (hehehe). I like his glock 9mm, fun gun to shoot.
We are in for a huge change in weather this week, yesterday mid 70's light breeze, today a cold front is moving through and the wind is supposed to start blowing. Hard freeze and more "seasonal" temps. It's going to be a busy next two weeks here at school. Start doing standardized testing to all students and then parent/teacher conferences next week. Fun time coming..... |
