Old guy just stopped by and asked if he could get a piece or two of flint from my flint deposit behind the back field to use in his flintlock rifles. Didn't know I had a flint deposit. Told him to go ahead and bring me a couple too.

    There are so many ways to ruin a Glock?

    Stippling:
    A process of melting 1000s of tiny holes in the frame in the name of comfort, only to put the gun up for sale after shooting 1 box of shells because it's not comfortable or cool.

    Under Cutting:
    The process of cutting out a v just below where the trigger guard comes into the grip. I have no clue what this proves.

    Chopping:
    The process of chopping a grip down to fit smaller mags. For example, a 17 would be chopped to accept G19 mags. Or a Glock 19 would be chopped to use G26 mags. WHY?!

    Cerakoting:
    The process of applying a coating to a gun to change the color of the gun. This can be done to any gun, but in my opinion, it makes a Glock look like crap. Not so bad on AR's

    I saw a promo for The Time Machine on a movie channel and got to thinking about actor Rod Taylor (best known for this film and The Birds). Looked him up and I was a little surprised to see that he is 84 and still living. Thought he must have passed since I hadn't heard of him for so long. Nope, just retired.

    Also didn't know he was a Aussie.

    Good for him. Hope he's enjoying his retirement.

    Thanks for the entertainment.

    it's not stippling. It's ruining.
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain
