What'd you do today?

I used to love bagpipes until I started the job. Reb, I wish the best for you and your blue family.

I'm getting ready deal with this:

One of the deputies I used to work with at my old PD job was killed in an on-duty car accident a few days ago. He and I got to be friends when our shifts overlapped, he was working A lines with the Sheriff's office, and I was working Cs with the town. We killed time together when it was slow, and shagged calls together when it got busy.
He was a great dude, and I'm still processing it.

Replaced the transmission filter on my 03 suburban. Twas a pain in the butt and took up most of my weekend, but it's better than replacing a tranny.

I spent last night at the ER animal clinic. Ended up having to put my cat to sleep.

He apparently had a form of enlarged heart that causes blood clots to form without much warning. One of the clots broke loose and hit his lung and then his arm, making it hard for him to breath and paralyzing his right side.

I'm going to miss him a lot.

I went to an anti-Trump immigration protest, and started working on the paperwork to start a local DSA group.

That's how my life is going at the moment.

I photographed one of the local Women's Marches in SW Missouri a few weeks ago. A few hundred people were expected to show up. That is not what happened.

RIP T&O Forum

Took my Focus in last week to get seat heaters installed. Dropped it off early in the morning and got a call around lunch from the guys. They were concerned that my seats were "too intricate" and that the heating elements would ruin them. So I opted to go without them and got a refund from the dealership instead.

So yesterday after work I took the seat money and got something a little more useful. Everyone should have a 44mag in their life.

It was an election year and at the point in time you see the data surge there, people though Hillary was a shoe-in. Still less overall time.

I think it was 41f.

After shooting a suppressed SBR down in Texas... I want one so bad.

The whole stamp process is a PITA. It took me about 7 months after my paperwork was turned in.

Better than the year to two years it used to take. It's getting shorter and shorter every submission. Shoot, it used to be 6 months for a C&R approval, now it's under a month in most cases.

Barely related to C&R, but I know you used to love Toks. I recently got one and I love the size. I wish it was safe to carry and I got in when surplus was cheap.

I've got a Romanian TTC which has a thumb safety. Makes it okay-ish for a carry weapon in the same way that a 1911 is okay-ish for carry. It all depends on how safe you feel either carrying condition one, or carrying with the need to rack the slide before firing. My carry weapon for the states where I can carry is my Hungarian PA-63. 9x18 Makarov in a Walther PP clone with a light weight aluminum-titanium alloy frame. It's small, accurate, and with JHPs, it does the job much better than a .380 would. P-64 is another good, cheap EDC from the old ComBloc.

But yes, I LOVE my TTC. I'm more accurate with that than any of my other handguns.
