That's true. In addition, many products have been made needlessly complex in nature and difficult to repair in part to prevent you and me from being able to make do or fix it ourself. :angry:
re: Lessons to remember: Dale Brown’s first 4 years
Posted by TigerOnThe Hill on 3/12/26 at 5:21 pm to Im4LSUnTN
I agree w/ everyone who's said there's no comparison between college basketball now and then, much less the personalities of the two coaches. In addition, MM's coaching record for the first 4 years is worse than was DB's, especially in league play.
Dale Brown, '72-75
Overall 48-54, 47%.

Are y'all using a pocket holster and if so what brand?
Yes, when I pocket carry, I always use a holster that covers the trigger. I don't carry anything else in the pocket either. I carry a spare mag in a mag carrier in the offside pocket. The offside pocket is also empty of anything except the magazine.
I carry the Kahr CW 380 in a Keaton Custom Leather holster w/ shark trim. It's held up really well for 7 years. He has a YouTube page. His email when I bought mine was keetoncustomleather@gmail.com. I've also been pleased w/ an R Grizzle Leather pocket holster.
I carry the CM9 in a TT Gunleather pocket holster. The TT is a quality product, but the CM9 holster frequently stays w/ the gun when the gun is drawn. It looks like he's changed his design some. In my experience, pocket holsters w/ wings on the side like the Keeton holster work better as they're more likely to stay in the pocket

re: Is Ruger going to bring back the Marlin Model 60?
Posted by TigerOnThe Hill on 2/22/26 at 8:09 pm to DownshiftAndFloorIt
Marlin recently resumed production of their bolt action 22, XT-22. I had been looking for one, but when I couldn’t find one thought it was dead since it would compete w/ Ruger’s bolt action 22. Since the XT-22’s back in production, maybe they’ll resume the Model 60 as well.

I think it’s a trend, not your bad luck. In the last 12-18 months 2 guns/hunting/shooting forums I followed regularly have shut down and I suspect one the replacement forums will also close due to little traffic. Like someone already mentioned I don’t think FB is a good format for message boards.

re: 22 pistol, what should I buy? Update in the OP
Posted by TigerOnThe Hill on 2/14/26 at 11:13 pm to GREENHEAD22
I put my money on a Ruger 22/45. The suppressor is a SilencerCo Spectre 2, but it was discontinued. Now the Ruger has a SilencerCo Sparrow on. All hi-velocity 22 LR ammo comes out of the short barrel at subsonic velocities. In my gun, subsonic ammo is a little more quiet the hi-velocity ammo. My Ruger is fed CCI Subsonic HP's. Keep us updated.

^^This. I changed from DirecTV to Youtube TV a few months ago and my wife (no pics) has basically quit watching tv unless I turn it on and put it on the channel for her. She can't get use to not have a "channel number" to turn to. Digital DirecTV might be an option as long as the format is similar to her current DirectTV.

The demise of the PAC 10 /12 is a national tragedy. Still shocking that happened. One of the great institutions in American sports with a legacy more than a century old just collapsed almost overnight.
I grew up in OR when it was the Pac 8. Later became the Pac 10 when they added the two AZ colleges. The travel was convenient when it was the Pac 8. There were 2 schools in WA (Wash State and UW), two in OR (OSU and Univ of OR), 2 in northern CA (Berkley and Stanford) and 2 in southern CA (UCLA and USC).
re: Do people honestly think McMahon will be coaching here next season?
Posted by TigerOnThe Hill on 2/11/26 at 7:57 pm to DallasTiger45
Admittedly I haven't followed LSU men's basketball very closely the past few years. When I read question in the post, I thought, "No way will MM be back for next season." Then I asked AI about his contract and buyout. I couldn't believe what AI told me about the contract: 7-year, $20.3 million contract running through the 2028-29 season with a 7.5 million buyout for the next 3 years. Admittedly, he was signed before NIL was big, but why in the world a 7 year contract? And 20.3 million?? Now, I'm not sure. I wouldn't like it, but I could see a scenario where he returns so LSU avoids such a big buyout.

How does it shoot?? Unless you're just going to look at it and not use it, you might want to see how it shoots before putting time and money into it. Through the years, there's been a lot of variability in the accuracy of Mini-14s.

Any of you baws carry with tucked in shirts?
When I first started cc, I carried IWB w/ a tucked shirt. It didn't take long before I became more comfortable w/ cc and transitioned to OWB carry. My favorite IWB holster w/ tucking capabilities is the "Tuck Clip" holster by Side Guard. Having the clip offset from the body of the gun makes the package a little thinner.

I thought about getting the wife one. They call it a wallet gun, thin and light.
There's a gun shop down the road that sells them. For the price and ease of conceal makes a great conceal and carry.
Pocket 380's are indeed very light and small (there's a reason they're called "pocket 380's"). My Kahr CW380 fits in the pocket of all my pants. OTOH, because they're so light and small, pocket 380's have very "snappy" recoil. I've known even experienced shooters who don't like to shoot a pocket 380. Because they are so snappy, they're sometimes not a good choice for an inexperienced shooter, including many women. Be sure and handle and shoot a gun before encouraging it for your wife. It frequently doesn't turn out well when a husband buys a gun for his wife. A wife who's not experienced in guns will usually want the husbands input, assuming he's experienced w/ guns. Give sage advice and input, but it usually works out best if it's still "her" purchase. :bow:

By all accounts, the Rohrbaugh was a really fine pocket 9mm. Unfortunately, finding one is like the search for the "Holy Grail." :lol: Remington made a knock off for a little while, but it never really got any traction in the market and was quickly discontinued. I think the best available pocket 9mm is the Kahr CM9. The PM 9 is good also, but a little more expensive. I really like my CM9, but don't carry it as much as I used to. For me, it'll fit ok in slacks, but not jeans. The only gun I can cc in the waist pockets of jeans is my Kahr CW380. CM9 (top) compared to Key-Tec P3AT (bottom).
ETA: Although I have a Kimber Micro 9, I don't feel comfortable using it (or similar mini 1911's) for pocket carry. It has more "things" (external hammer, beavertail grip and external safety) to potentially snag on the draw. I think 1911's should be carried cocked and locked. Unfortunately, when carried in a pocket, that exposes the internals to lint usually found in pockets.
