Truk, that was a very commen sense post you made. A lot of far left and right wingers here and that's kind of scary. It's the quiet man you should be careful of and don't think he is helpless. It's like the guy who brags on how much money he has, really doesn't have squat.
Lew,
Common Sense is not so common anymore these days ! maybe that's a huge part of the problem, I forget this point a lot anymore and assume most folks are still with a bit of it , but it seems Old Mr. Common died a long time ago !
The Key words ( Situation & Judgment ) keep those in your Brain Bag and with an ounce of common sense you will go far and live to further enjoy life.
like you say talks cheap and the quiet man is the one you need to look out for.
Your Right, in these days and times of the 21st century we are faced with a lot of uncertain situations, Scary if you will, but I am not living my life in fear and will continue exercising my freedom daily if it means I must remain armed most of the time to do so.;)
Sorry for the delinquent response, Fly-N-Low. I have not had time to surf the web lately - too busy trying to stay busy at work. Where are you all in NE Alabama? I actually grew up a few miles north of Sherwood, AL acrosss the TN border. Keep packin heat.
Hi Towson,
No worries on the reply...
Yeah I know how the work thing goes and staying busy I have been doing the same myself lately and in my spare time catching up on the all the task around here on the property now that the rain has subsided for awhile.
We are located south of Fort Payne, AL about 20 miles off Highway 35 and about 20 miles to the West, Northwest of Rome, Ga.
As far as the heat is concerned I carry it with me just about every where I go just like the American Express... Better to have it and not need it as to need it and not have it ! you just never know anymore in these times...
I like to pack the Old 1911 Colt, lots of Punch and a Heck of a piece of Lead Ball ....
Actually I got the P.M. maintenance done on the Bus today and was able to wash her and clean her up nicely, pulled all my batteries out, serviced them and cleaned the entire area, its amazing how well that "FAST ORANGE" can dissolve Grease, and once I had the 4 main batteries and Battery Tray out I cleaned the entire area and used the Low Pressure, Pressure washer to wash all of the Grease and Grime away... the Engine Compartment is now really clean again and was able to correct some minor issues in the area... just a really nice Spring Day here today ... Actually it was Awesome and I hope for a few more like it.
Take care and if you need to turn the wheels and wet the seals ride over and come see us sometimes.
Take Care...
Tommy ;)
Our first coach was a 1994 Liberty. Hopefully you are taking about the chassis batteries. Our house batteries were in the center of the coach and accessible only from the center of the front pass-thru bay. If not, you are ambitious for tackling that job.
My wife and I come up to Barnesley Gardens and Chattanooga on occasion. We might have to head towards Fort Payne.
S&W 3915 is our trustworthy travel companion.
Hi,
Yes that is correct I pulled the 4 each main chassis Batteries and the Tray they sit on and cleaned the area and all the Interconnecting Cables along with other Engine Compartment areas and looked over of all lines and connections as well as the wiring, belts, hoses ect.
I just recently replaced the Generator Battery and that is in good shape now and my next bout will be the inspection of the house batteries and cables for condition and security... like to keep all of them clean and apply a little Grease on them to help prevent the build up on them.
If you make over towards Fort Payne let me know when you plan on heading up this way and we can maybe get together ...
Take care.
Tommy
As a follow up to an earlier post of mine in this thread, I did complete the 2-day Defensive handgun course at Front Sight in Pahrump, Nevada.
This is truly world class firearms training. The instructors were incredible. They personally took each individuals gun and fired it themselves into the center of the target to demonstrate that the sights on the firearm were in correct alignment and to prove to the student what was possible with the very same gun they carried.
We also fired from a position of a loaded gun drawn from the holster. Not many ranges are confident enough in their training to allow that!
I encourage everyone interested in firearms training, from hand guns to select-fire M-16 to full auto Uzi, to consider Front Sight. You will not be disappointed!
Bravo Paul, firearms training is so important, even for experienced folks. I have an upcoming class at Glock in November and looking forward to it.
Careful on the quick draw, foot shots are very painful!:D
Tom,
I'll be happy to share a couple of quick tips that I learned.... they will work wonders on the Glock.
They were EXTREMELY diligent about range and personal safety while training to shoot from the holster.
One exercise which I thought was very cool was when the instructor had me place the gun on target.... while he pressed the trigger.
Shot was dead on....:)
Here is a good link to Front Sight....
