Indeed. 270k or something. It was rebuilt at some point. It was the tranny that really caused the problem.

It had a talk highway gear and that average is rush hour. It got 13 when she was healthy. 13 highway or 13 in town. It just didn't matter

Even with my expedition getting 7 MPG at the end it would have taken 3 years to catch up.

Smaller? Yup Only got 3 months on these. Thank god for work I rely on suspenders.

I am on the last hole on my belt AGAIN! This is horse sht!

I was just listening to that too.Who is that?

Ps4 is the best blue ray player around. :-) I stream all my media through it too.

Sexy

I'm old and that is what excites me now.... :-D

I didn't tell you dudes.... I was at Nordstrom Rack and spies a tie.... It was Zegna. :swoon: $205 tie for $30. Then got a $150 cashmere scarf for a penny! So exciting!

My friend got me my favorite coffee and met me at the bar with it. Then an old acquaintance shared her bacon cheese fries and delivered me cider.

The Italian government sent spies to kill the artisans who were teaching the Parisians to make mirrors. They succeeded too but the Parisians already had the skills. Lulz

Aaaaah. Yeah I don't know much about those books other than like basically becomes God like at some point.

I'm reserving judgement for the new movies until after I see them.

Thank you so much. Did I tell you I lost all my pics from Paris? Only have Versailles. The hall of mirrors is something I'll never forget, as is with most of Paris.

Thanks guys. He went from happy to unable to walk, eat, drink, or be true my aware in just a day. No food for 3-4 days even when a forced feeding was tried. My roommate was closest and he was there and I was scratching his ear. Good fairwell.

I think by now everyone knows my love of the 1911. It is the flaming sword that Gabriel himself blessed upon Saint John Moses Browning and then onto us mere mortals. That said it's simply more particular than most modern pistols, and that's really true from the tighter guns. It's not abnormal to have one magazine from a great brand work and the one next to it need some tuning or it just won't feed right. Numbering your 1911 mags is a real common thing. Recoil spring and buffer can make a pistol stumble. Once it's dialed in its the greatest pistol platform you will ever shoot. Making them compact has also had issues for some. In fact many new companies are making their compact 1911 so far away from the original design you can't exchange parts. It increases the ergo or the reliability and for whatever reason making the standard pistol smaller just complicates the design and unless really touched by a person has a higher likelihood of having issue. For me the tight but compact 1911 is a bit of an odd duck. It results in a pistol that can be more prone to problems so that you can carry it, but it's accurized to a point that it's incapable of shooting. Less reliability and impossible to use accuracy don't make sense. Get a full frame and shoot it because it's the absolute greatest joy you can have in a pistol, and if you can't carry it, use a more rugged and modern design for carry. Maybe a car analogy would work. A compact accurate 1911 For carry is like a blown LS in a Ford escape with rubberband tires on 22" rims and cool overs. 800 HP in a chassis that can't use it and to front wheels that won't be able to hook up. Even if a master like you worked on that car it's still really bad as a daily driver and as a race car because the level of performance doesn't make sense with the chassis.

None of the major brands are junk IMHO. Some of them have just shipped guns with too low of a tolerance without having a human give the pistol a once over. Some of the tightest guns now machine the parts oversized and then hand fit. It's absurd level of work, but we are still at the point where a human can fit 2 parts better than a machine in this specific instance. At least in this instance. My roommate even has a "tempermental" match grade springfield. Great gun. But not visibly more accurate until farther out than I would want to use a pistol. His has had a couple feeding and extracting issues with cheep ammo. That would happen with any tight gun.

A guy I work with got one in trade a few months ago. It has a Mil spec 7 twist barrel He always comes out to my house to shoot, so I have had the opportunity to shoot it quite a bit. It's just not my thing. I have owned an AK, and that was really not my thing either. I am really more into a bolt rifle, I love long range utilitarian accuracy. For home defense I have shotguns and pistols. I really don't have a need that semi-auto/Tactical can fill.The AR looks cool, as far as tactical goes, and it really is kind of fun to shoot. It's low recoil makes shooting it for a long time easy, and it makes requisition of the target easy. It feels more like a good rifle than an AK, but the AK has a lot more ass. You know someone is going to die at the end of an AK, where the mild AR seems less deadly. Also, I don't find the AR to be really accurate. That kills the gun for me. I like to shoot sub-moa, and I know the AR isn't built for that, but I am too competitive for that. As an auto gun becomes more accurate you will usually have a fall in acuracy.Even the shorter m4 style rifles are great to 400 yards. The AK would be hard pressed to do that without some work. If an AR is really tuned it can be so close to bolt accuracy of doesn't matter. The only problem with any autoloader is the bolt cycle and return pulse. It's human problems not mechanial problems. Until you get past the AR10 sized platform the AR is easily robust enough to match most bolt rifles. Back to the Kimber thing, it's about the tolerances. The original 1911 was made to have sloppy tolerance. Accurizing Definately reduces ruggedness. Of wasn't just keyboard warriors with issues. It was a problem of them changing ownership and management. They made overly accurate guns that didn't get hand finished the way a specialized pistol needs to be. They massed produced low tolerance parts. The pistols for government contract were either low tolerance or not but they all got looked over by a Smith. The pistols for the market didn't. Kimber just had more business than they could handle and had a shake up in the office. It wasn't for a huge timeframe but it was a real issue.

Glad Sean is out of Paris.

I had to put him down. So he did.

Cat is gone.

Cat is sick.
