@ Carl:
A lot of years I used .45 ACP STI for IPSC and Combat-shooting competitions. Another weapon I favorize is the Glock 19.
And I love my Benelli Super 90 M1 and M3

In regard to handguns I've only ever used a Browning 9mm. My all time favourite weapon is an AK47, or maybe an SLR, though an M60 is of course very beautiful. Then again, an 84mm Carl Gustaf makes one feel one is alive, as does an RBS70 Surface to Air Missile. I'm a little more reserved these days and hope to buy a long bow shortly. I want to buy three big round hay bales, put them at the end of the back yard and hang a target in front. Though I guess NONE of what I mentioned would be of any help in the 'hood....

AK47 is a very good weapon, I own a modified one.
In my first life I liked to use a 100mm tank-gun (T55) and the 12,7mm machine-gun

Thanks for your words. You are correct in that I am very proud of her. She was not an easy one as a freshman and sophmore in high school. After those two years she has done really well. Originally Posted by TonyN

(How you have to feel right now) It makes you really proud that you've succeded in sending her down the right path and that her determination and hard work paid off. 
Nice to see you here. Glad the shave went well. Originally Posted by mjsorkin

It's been a while since I've had a shave, so this one was most welcome. I think this edge could use a bit more work, but it got me through without any irritation, though there was a bit of tugging. Back to the stones for this one! I am quite happy with how this razor turned out and, if today's shave is any indication, it will be a big part of my rotation for many years. I now have a double update to make in the Noob Chronicle. Happy Friday, SOTD Brothers!
