Title: Happy Thanksgiving!
Post by: The_Shadow on November 27 2013 09:56:58 AM MST
Just wanted to extend my wishes for everyone to have a Happy Thanksgiving!  ;D
Please remember those who serve...Military, Law Enforcement, Fire/EMS, even medical services.  Many are scheduled to work and are not able to partake in the giving of thanks with their families!
May the good lord keep each of you safe!

May you all be safe.
May you all have a blessed Holiday no matter what your beliefs (or lack there of still may it be blessed).
May you all be at peace with you families.

To my nephew who is fighting in Afghanistan. Keep your weapon zeroed and your powder dry. Airborne, All the Way!

Special Thanks to GrimReaper for this great forum where we all can get together and hang out...Communicate sharing ideas, knowledge, stories, pictures, products, ammo and handloading info.  This site has grown to a healthy membership across the country and beyond.

Special Thanks to Intercooler and Raggedman for their generous contributions to share the real world info/videos as tested.  Those looking for data to help with ammo decisions will find their work interesting and useful as far as performance is concerned.  Intercooler, Rome and others also shared ammo and items to gather data as test in the ammo "Pull-Down" sections , this has yielded a wealth of knowledge and some mystery, as to how the ammo is being made to attain its performance levels we see.  All of this adds up to answer some questions and in some cases, raise even more questions people inquire about.

In closing, I am proud to be a part of the 10mmFirearms Community here.  To those who thought 10mm was dead, you all need to re-evaluate that thought process.  The 10mm cartridge is very much "Alive" and still proving to many, why it is a great semi-auto performance cartridge..... 8)   Some companies still embrace this platform and we are grateful.  Now if only we can convince other gun makers to provide products chambered for our favorite cartridge......... ::)

Enjoy yourselfs this Thanksgiving day!  AMEN! ;D

It was a good day for us.  Finally back in our house, though there is still much to do.  We lack still a kitchen sink (waiting on hardware), so we had to make do with water from the bathroom sinks.

But, the turkey came out great, we stuffed our faces.  My oldest started refinishing a drafting machine top for her room, and I worked on closet built-ins late in the day.

Internet gets installed on Tuesday, and the garage door later next week.  At that point it will really start to feel like home.
