Fizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.....

So I ordered some OC to spray the pooches. I'm willing to go OC in the left hand, gat in the right. I'm also thinking of getting Alf an Ithaca Auto & Burglar with stocks cut to fit her little paws. Or maybe one of those little Danish grenades that only have a 3-foot kill radius. She could hook her little claw into the pin, then bombs away! The world's first Assault Beagle! Except Alf doesn't like loud noises, so there you are. Maybe she can handle little nunchucks.

I was in Denver today at the Dish Network call center signing autographs and generally schmoozing. It was big fun. I've got to get to the range tomorrow, so I can maybe go to the Appleseed shoot with a rifle vaguely sighted in. Although it wouldn't be the first time I Kentucky windaged a whole event. Maybe it'll be warm...

My Sweetie and I are gong to take a 3-Gun class after Thanksgiving with my old friend Mark Passamaneck. Mark and I shot a lot of IDPA back in the day, and I'm looking forward to doing some 3-Gun matches when/if spring comes, which I have on authority will happen after winter.

BTW, got Glock 19 #2 back from Mark at L&M...this one has a Leupold DeltaPoint mounted ahead of the rear BUIS. This will make an interesting segment of SG. Interesting that S&W became the first company to offer "optic ready" semiautos. I suspect they won't be the last. [ADDENDUM...yes, I did forget the FNX .45...sorry]

I'm going to finish watching the Bogart version of THE BIG SLEEP, then call it a night. If I could write one book as good as Raymond Chandler's worst book, I'd be content to cut off my fingers...

FN beat S&W to the punch with the FNX-45 Tactical: http://www.fnhusa.com/l/products/commercial/handguns/fnx-series/fnx-45-tactical/

"Except Alf doesn't like loud noises, so there you are."

Sounds like he needs a suppressed SBR AR-15 (and one for you, too, of course!)

The Big Sleep is one of my favorites - I always wanted to put one of those flip out panels under the dash of my car like Marlowe's holding a couple of Colts.

if not exubankevin's suggestion, then perhaps one of those suppressed 22's your putting together. tail activated trigger system, green laser maybe one of those goofy pistol bayonets.
no, that's unfeasible.
dog's are color blind.
scratch the laser. ;)

would love to see photo's of these glock 19's you had modified.
