This is so very true.

Ruger Day

 

All Ruger, all .22LR brace on 10/22!

Mañana

Don't forget to have a rum and Coke tomorrow in honor of Dead Che Day!

 

Arrr?

 ወዳጆች፣ በእርግጥም ዛሬ "እንደ ባህር ላይ ዘራፊ (ፓይሬት) የመናገር ቀን" ነው!

ነገር ግን፣ እውነተኛዎቹ የባህር ላይ ዘራፊዎች "እንደ ባህር ላይ ዘራፊ የመናገር ቀን" በሚያዘው መልኩ አይናገሩም ነበር።

ያ አነጋገር፣ ለዲዝኒው "Treasure Island" (የሀብት ደሴት) ፊልም ባደረገው ትወና ላይ ልዩ ድምቀት ለመፍጠር የወሰነው ተዋናይ ሮበርት ኒውተን የፈጠረው ነበር።

ይሁን እንጂ፣ የኢትዮጵያ ባህር ላይ ዘራፊዎች የሚናገሩት በዚህ መልኩ ነው!

Since today is 6/8 here's a GURPS: Gun Stats comparison for some .277 cartridges!

National Ammo Day

November 19th is national ammo day, where we gun owners are supposed to go out and show how much economic clout we have by buying 100 rounds of centerfire ammo.

Thanks to the fine folks at Widner's, my tally is 40 rounds of .30-06 M2 ball and 60 rounds of 5.56x45mm M193. 

Depends On The Album

I've seen a meme that says that if you air-drum to a Def Leppard song with both arms you're an asshole.

I would say that any song that predates the Hysteria album is OK to use both arms, but from Hysteria on you have to limit yourself to one arm.

Fifth Of May

It's tradition.

 

Obligatory

Today is 10-22, so we post the obligatory 10-22.

Annual ATF

 

Ruger Day

Today is 10/22 with an extra 22 on the end.

So I am reusing an old picture of Harvey's 10/22 with an extra 22!

You DO have a Ruger .22 of some sort, don't you?

I think it's mandatory.

That Time Of Year Again

 

10/22 Day

Here's a pic of my 10/22!

I don't actually own an example of the most ubiquitous .22 LR ever made.

The Lovely Harvey has one, but the idea is to post a pic of your own, so...
