    Sounds like time for a loving but FIRM de-keying intervention....

    May she recover and return home quickly.

    Time to pull her license. No other way to say that. She needs to let that go. It really is for her best interests.

    Good point. I have never fired one of the civilian variants.

    The pic rails seem to have gotten a bit outta hand, but whattafugduwino?

    It’s unbelievable. You’d think there was some sort of contest as to how many gadgets one can hang on their rifle.

    A while back I bought a Sig 556. It was the SWAT variant, with 237 linear feet of pic rails on it.

    This is the same gun after a little de-modernizing.

    We had one of those interventions for my Grandfather when he turned 95. Turns out he never did have a license to begin with. He learned to drive in 1917 and figured that that was enough.
    We got him one of those Honda quads and he rode that until he passed away. He said he liked it better than a horse...it only ate when it worked and it went where he pointed it.

    That’s curious.

    The usual stereotype of those who learned to drive in that era is they would never give up their horses.

    Mr. and Mrs. Brown had two sons. One was named Mind Your Own Business & the other was named Trouble. One day the two boys decided to play hide and seek. Trouble hid while Mind Your Own Business counted to one hundred. Mind Your Own Business began looking for his brother behind garbage cans and bushes. Then he started looking in and under cars until a police man approached him and asked, "What are you doing?" "Playing a game," the boy replied. "What is your name?" the officer questioned. "Mind Your Own Business." Furious the policeman inquired, "Are you looking for trouble?!" The boy replied, "Why, yes."

    He was full blood Native American and he liked his horses well enough. He spent most of his life on horse back and he was busted up enough to prove it. If you ride tough horses every day in rough country a little gadget like a quad or a side by side can seem like a Rolls Royce.
