  1. A friend of mine is planning on shooting one at some point in the near future. I bet he would be willing to break you a chunk off.
  2. Krisanne is in there too, for a canopy advertisement. Way to go! Lots of beer being owed.
  3. Hahaha. that asshole with the noodle was beatin' down on ya'll. Horny gorillas are great fun. It is a good way to start a sitfly jump, it keeps you close when you start.
  4. 1 word, actually, 2. Gold Digger!
  5. Here is a vid of the location http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0y9sATT9j-U
  6. It is an ocean/cliff soaring location just south of san francisco, called fort funston. The main launch is all hang gliders, but further down you can launch paragliders. Soaring dudes are nuts, they pack their reserves themselves... and get this.... HAND deploy!!!
  7. They certainly have their uses! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adBm7U9-8OM Although can be a handful sometimes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbVucGxZT0s&feature=related
  8. I would think that a keg and bottles have about the same shelf life, what, 6+ months? That is less than 1 beer per day. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_JVFar-pLxxQ/R4WGPiqy2-I/AAAAAAAAADY/lZZOGL1wYaA/s400/Lovely-Day-for-a-Guinness-Posters.jpg
  9. I recently did a tandem hang glide, it was very fun, and sort of calming. My experience with canopies has made me want to go with a rigid, rather than ram air wing for soaring. You are crazy!
  10. Yeah but we are talking a KEG here. DRAFT beer. In your HOME!!!!! It is almost always a few bucks cheaper to buy bottles, but man is it nice to bust out the pint glasses or 40oz mugs or Das Booooooooooooooot!!! (over 100oz)
  11. What sort of boats are you sailing? It seems that I am drawn to anything involving wind: motorcycles, jumping, sailing, etc. I was a part owner on a hobie 16, and a long while ago my dad owned a tornado with all the race fittings, cats are a blast!
  12. Nice work! Graduating AFF was an experience I will never forget, that is for sure. Those solos sure feel uneventful, don't they?
  13. Wow lots of info! Ok, so you guys know what I am working with, this is the gun I bought: http://www.remington.com/products/firearms/shotguns/model_870/model_870_express.asp I want to buy parts that I can easily remove for when I go hunting, but put back on when it is back at the house. This will likely be: Short barrel Pistol grip stock (maybe?) Side saddle looks sweet A flashlight bracket, I have a light that will work perfectly, it has a push button switch on the rear. Mag extension (possibly) I will check out the oversized safety, and I can simply leave it on while hunting as well which is nice. The express version I bought, is the cheapest one they make, and I found that the police models have some nice features that increase reliability, such as a machined rather than cast extractor. The brownelles website has a few extractors, but they don't specify which is which, and that is annoying! Those pictures contain some sweet looking shotguns! Thanks for the advice.
  14. Don't worry, I am keeping the 28" for field days. Although an 18" with no choke has got to have a wide spread.
  15. Yes currently it has a 28 inch barrel and 4+1 magazine. I want to get an additional barrel and stock, and maybe a mag extension, and use it as my primary home defense weapon. It will primarily be used as a bird gun, however.
  16. Ok, so I was thinking of getting a short barrel and some sort of pistol grip stock for the 870 that will soon be in my possession. What are you guys sporting? Judging by how many recommended the 870 to me in my bird hunting thread, there has gotta be some sweet pump guns sitting in DZ.com safes.
  17. I would love to have a benelli super black eagle or the winchester (not sure what type) semi that I got a chance to hold at the gun shop, the action is SO SWEET! I am very much looking forward to the 870 that is sitting lonely on a shelf at big 5. It is telling me through esp that it needs to be shot. Lots of times. Oh, and it wants to lay waste to some pheasants, which it would like to have put in my stomach whilst getting a nice cleaning.
  18. That sounds interesting. Can you illustrate it? Here is what I did, except that station "8" is also station 9, and when you shoot from that position, you face towards the house that the clay is coming from, so you only have a split second to shoot it, and basically have to aim somewhere along the flight path beforehand, because you don't have time to aim. http://www.waterperryshooting.co.uk/images/graphics/skeet.jpg
  19. Ah, good info. I didn't know they push with the mix. Well, everything I said should still apply, paint ball bottles all the way!
