The "Whatever" Thread

Hmm, new guns.I've bought a few lately thanks to a signing bonus we received for ratifying a new contract at work.

I now have a Kimber Stainless II Target in 10mm (used), A S&W M&P 9 (new), (yes Andy, I bought a S&W!:eek:) and just for fun a Bersa Thunder 22 (used).

I'll get pics when I feel better.

I've been suffering from numb hands, feet and mouth the past week and just went to the doc yesterday and am waiting for test results to hopefully tell what is wrong and how to fix it.
I did find out I have a bundle branch blockage in my heart and premature heart beats.(gotta see a cardiologist about it)
Thanks to the numb feet I can't walk normally because my feet feel like they are asleep.
Imagine how it feels when one foot goes to sleep and you walk on it and divide by two.
Very unstable to say the least.(I can still walk though, just slowly.:rolleyes:)
Very frustrating too!

I hope to get an "assault" rifle next, but can't decide on an AK or AR platform.(Get it before Hillary gets in office.:barf:)
Collective thoughts on opinions/experiences would be appreciated.

I used an M16 in the Marines and grew to hate it (not due to performance, just a mental thing) and would like a bigger caliber hence thinking about an AK variant.
I've got a bit of prejudice towards the AK being a former GI, but they say they are the ultimate in reliability and they do chamber the 7.62 thirty cal.
Again, opinions/tips/experiences would be appreciated on the two.:)

poor circulation from the BBB may be causing your numbness.

I totally understand your prejudice against the "M is for Matel" platform, but they come in a multitude of calibers now -- 6.5, .300 AAC Blackout, etc... in the AR-15 size, and .308 (plus other hunting calibers) in the AR-10 size.

I forgot to mention the M13 and Woodcraft I received from John last week.
The M13 with gorgeous Ironwood will be going up for auction and the Woodcraft with Walnut is just a great knife and a good mate for my Texan 336.

I'll get pics up when I can.

Thanks again to all that voted for the M13 and thanks to John for two great knives.

I was driving around today between the doc and pharmacy and stopped at the McDonalds drive through for a coke and the folks in front of me payed for my order.
Pretty cool.
I ended up next to them at the light after pulling out into the street and they said it had happened to them so they were paying it forward.
Made my day to say the least.
 
Cool, Mykel!

They did what they intended, they made someone else feel good like they had!

Pretty cool, there are still a few good people out there. I did that years ago. I was at the airport in China and paid for a small group of American soldiers who were in line with me.
 
Thats cool, myke, good tto see people doing stuff like that, lot of good folks out there ;)

Good to see hanna having fun, :thumbup:,
 
Heat treating today, then I'm done working until Monday. We are picking up Hayley and Hanna tonight, then doing something with them tomorrow. Saturday we pick up Emily to spend the day with her, then will take her home Sunday. I'll get back to work on Monday.
 
I volunteered for an extra shift last night because of not only the overtime pay but because I would get off 2 hours early today with no chance of having to work over. We hoped to get away and camp at one of our favorite spots for a couple of nights. It's been storming since 3:00 this morning with flash flood and severe thunderstorm warnings in affect until midnight. Guess it will be a good evening to try the bottle of single barrel my son got me for Father's Day. Maybe we'll get to go tomorrow but I'm sure the wife will be totally against camping in the mud:eek:
 
I really love some of the emails I get! Got this one this morning.
