No, but I'm just proving a point. You can't walk down the sidewalk in rags and call men in business suits bums. Just doesn't work like that.

Hey Mr. Grammer Expert do you see the section in bold above? That is not two sentences. The latter is a fragment. Just thought I should point that out.

Remington 870 in a few weeks. I had my local shop order a Benelli Supernova Tactical and it was supposed to show up in a week, and I couldn't find any 2 3/4" low recoil loads of 00 buck or Truball slugs in town, so I ordered them as well. Then I got a call a few days later informing me that the Supernova tacticals are backordered over 90 days, due to popularity. So I went back to the store, held a bunch of 18-20" barreled pumps, and decided I'd get the 870 express with ghost ring sights. They had a Benelli Nova tactical there, but I don't like not being able to adjust drop and comb. I'm sure none of these pansy city boys have a clue what that means.

No it's not...again, the majority of the Volvospeed crowd can't tell the difference between paramilitary camo and woodland/turkey camo. I guess since they make all the rules, every person in the military that wears camo is a redneck, or anyone who owns a shotgun is a redneck.

Whoever called a 9mm pansy is an idiot. Take 10+1 124gr +P Gold Dots in the chest and see if you're not crying for mommy. If you can't take someone down with a 9mm, you can't take them down with a .45ACP either. Shot placement is more important than any ballistics in SD shooting, and a 9mm recoils way less.

And whoever said something about gun control and crime and general population, go clean out your vag and vote for Hillary Clinton. Gun control is nothing but a proven failure of crime prevention. Criminals don't obey laws, that's why they're criminals. Gun control only takes 2nd amendment rights away from the law-abiding citizens to defend themselves if necessary.

I shot my XD for the first time today! The only complaint I have is I need the Pearce finger extention. I seriously doubt I'll carry the 16-round mag around as it's huge, but the 10-round mag is a bit short for my pinky to sit comfortably at the bottom. The trigger pull is amazing, short and smooth. The sights were dead on at 7 yards. I was very pleased with it.

So you go from a benelli supernova to a Remington 870 express? :huh: They don't even compare. I have an 870 express, it's a nice gun, but it's not nearly as nice as the supernova. The recoil and the pump actuation is on a entirely different level. Oh, and buy a real knife.

The last sentence was indeed a fragment, since it lacked a subject. "It just doesn't work like that" would be a grammatically correct sentence, although in any kind of business/professional writing, "It simply does not work like that" would be the best as contractions should not be used, and "just" isn't that high up on the vocabulary wordbank.

I think I should explain for me what constitutes a redneck. Some people take pride in it, while others, like myself, do not. Being a redneck is not being country. Anwers.com defines redneck as:

Science Dictionary: redneck

A slang term, usually for a rural white southerner who is politically conservative, racist, and a religious fundamentalist (see fundamentalism). This term is generally considered offensive. It originated in reference to agricultural workers, alluding to how the back of a person's neck will be burned by the sun if he works long hours in the fields.

There are plenty of personal definitions of rednecks, but who I consider a redneck is someone who is unintelligent, racist, lacks knowledge of any socially acceptable mores, has no ambition to do anything with his/her life, has no manners and displays high levels of disrespect to anyone and everyone, and throws their old wads of dip in the water fountains. So calling me a redneck is an insult, based on my own personal image of a redneck.

The throwing stars aren't a deterrent...they're just something to have. But I guarantee any of you would flinch if someone 15 feet away wound up to fling on at you. They can hurt.

Darkside...$550 for the XD and $425 for the P22. It came with the 5" barrel and compensator, weaver rail, and red dot scope, which is what made it so expensive. Typically you can pick them up for under $300 brand new. And they're worth every penny.

Gregg...well, I had a Supernova tactical on gunbroker, but I got outbid at the last minute. While it's a great shotgun, I don't feel like waiting 3-4 months to get one. I don't plan on using a shotgun for anything other than home defense, protection while camping, and rabbit hunting, so an 870 would serve me just fine. I'm sure I could hook up a rifled slug barrel for deer, but that's trying to turn a shotgun into a rifle. Rifled slugs is as far as I'll go with the shotgun, and if I decide to get serious into deer hunting, a .30-06 is in line. I DID consider a Benelli M3 convertible, but I couldn't justify paying $1400+, even if I had the money to spend. I am, of course, going to be mounting a side saddle on the receiver, mag extension if it doesn't come with one already on it, carry strap, and I'll probably need to adjust the drop on it. Standard drop feels awkward to me. Doing that stuff to the Supernova is difficult and expensive as it's a new model and there's not much out for it. Don't get me wrong, if I could get the Supernova with 18" barrel, ghost ring sights, and comfortech stock, I would. The issue is availability, amount of aftermarket and stock parts, and many years of reliability (thanks to its history). I held a Mossberg 590 and it just felt too long and cumbersome. The Benelli Nova didn't feel very good either. I did like the way the 870 felt...plus, I don't need a 3 1/2" chamber. I'm not into hunting turkey.

OK then. Just because it's something you don't know anything about doesn't make it dumb.

A lot of guys will go out on a day off, take a limit, and then throw it in the slow cooker before work the next day. It's not something I do personally but I'm at least not so ignorant that I'd say anyone doing things differently than myself is stupid.

i think you are mistaking what i am saying. if you are killing something for food/clothing or other needs i have no problem with it. if people are just shooting animals for fun, yeah i will call that stupid, sorry.

If you're gonna call others stupid and dumb, at least use proper grammar. All you little internet b*tches make redneck comments to me all the time, but at least I have the class to use proper sentence structure and decent grammar when I post. "your not eating it" should be "you're not eating it." I might be a smartass, but that's way better than being a dumbass.

sorry i am not checking my grammer and spelling before posting VS members ;)

I am not calling you redneck, i have friends that do this. i just have an issue killing something and not using it. IM sorry that i am not as "Classy" as you are

9mm is child's play, its for women and gangsta rappers...real men play with 10mm and up :ph34r::lol: j/k

+1

No it was pretty much the squirrel hunting that gave away your crimson nap.
