How do you use your tacticals?

[ahgar]

congrats on your 889. Mine was a little stiff when I got it but after sitting in front of the tv and flicking it a little while it is now slick as a gut. You might want to wait a little before you do any file work in case you have to send it back to buck for adjustment. if it doesn't loosen up email joe houser at buck and he will hook you up. you'll like it, ahgar

As for being a stupid slob...guilty!...

Here's a BIG:thumbup: for you Trax. Don't think I could have done that as gracefully as you did. Preston

There's a $.10 deposit on that bottle here...people (and Boy Scouts, too!) walk the shoulders collecting these deposits from bottles, cans, Litre jugs...and turn them in for $$$ to feed their kids...or feed their habit...

As for being a stupid slob...guilty!...

Yeah, what Preston said.
I thought that was hurtful and un-neccessary.
Beats getting pulled over by Five-O with an empty bottle. Shouldn't have it in the rig to begin with...like I've never had a beer...those that live in glass houses shouldn't throw beer bottles.

Hey ZZJake, how many bottles to buy that 110DM?

But true... Ah, well...I wish I was young and stupid again...

Hey, Goose - Did you read the subject line of this thread carefully??? I'd have thought you'd post a comment on how you use your "tacticals"...

You just knew I had to jump in here didn't you Goose? MOST cops, if they saw an open beer bottle in your car would use common sense. (1) Is the bottle empty and warm or (2) is it half full, cold and (a) in your lap or (b) was in your lap and you tossed it in the back when I pulled up and now there's a puddle on the back floor. If the answer was (1) then they won't give you a ticket. If, on the other hand you fall into category (2) then you're a bad boy and you're going to get a ticket.

...was in your lap and you toosed in the back...

Yep...he's a sailor!!!

On a related note...a real sailor told me that peacoats were designed to hold a pint of booze and a pack of smokes...darned if he wasn't right!!!

[size=-2]I inherited my dad's peacoat; fit fine and pockets were still good![/size]

Damn Five-O Michael...
I wish you were in my town.

Hey Trax, I did post on how to use my testy tacticals...seatbelt cutters.
But I knew what you meant you filthy rocky mountain oyster barnyard critter.

I don't get the whole "tactical' gig. To me, "tactical" means "plastic" handle.
All knives are "tactical". I have two plastic, excuse me, "tactical" knives...both Cold Steel. One Voyager Tanto and the other the Vaquero Enchirito Grande. I like them both...don't have any complaints, but I think the word "tactical" is over used or I just don't get it. (go with the later)

Ol' McNugget had a farm.

And on his farm he had a goose.

With a tactical here, a tactical there.
Here a tact, there a tact...
Everywhere a tact tact.

Well, I'll give you credit for knowing where you stand in life. :thumbup:

That was a '75 Firebird, IIRC I sold it in '82 or so...hopefully I've learned something better by now...(maybe not!)...

Our Conservation Club [right across the street from me] collects roadside garbage every Sunday morning...(it's an "Adopt-A-Highway" thingy)...mostly MacDonalds bags & wrappers, road kill, and general trash...very few bottles or cans...

...because the migrant workers [transients] and local "homeless" are out scouring the shoulders for the deposit cans & bottles...so I see a lot of cans all week (mostly from kids like I was back then) driving to work, then on Sunday 'poof' they're gone!...

I certainly don't begrudge them the deposits...I donate my Pepsi cans to the local Boy Scout troop...(when I was a Scout, it was paper drives)...they also collect...

Some day, there'll be a big riot between the migrants and the Boy Scouts...

I had a 1972 Firebird and drove the daylights out of it for four years. By the time I got rid of it, the freeze plugs were going, the heater core was gone and the engine went through a quart of oil every 2000 miles.

When I was a kid, we looked for bottles too (2 cents deposit in those days) and where was the best place to look? Why, on the neighbors' back porch of course. We only got caught once!!

Ditto!

I have one of those old wasp-waisted Coke bottles [greenish] in my display case... (I collect cigarette-case lighters; the combos, mostly Ronson, but some others)...

When I was at the Spring Antiques at Carlisle a few years back, someone was selling an old pack of Camels, unopened, sealed in plastic, for $35...
