1/2 past the Year, July Coffee is here

[Capt Quirk]

Morning all, coffee is on, and going fast. Long day yesterday, swapping the genny. Drove an hour plus to Macon, wait and wait on the "helpful" HF staff to get around to us. When they are getting to us, they drop a bombshell- There is a $120 "restocking fee". Say WHAT??? They claim that a restocking fee may apply to all returns. In the 7 years we have been doing this, there was never a restocking fee, because the item was not going to be restocked. Well, there goes the money to get a new 1 year extended warranty with it. I argue a bit, give up, and take the new genny and leave the store.

But, it ain't over yet! I call customer service, and wait... and wait... and go around the corner to Subway for lunch while I'm waiting. Just as I get my sammich, the support guy answers the phone. He says that the new manager was wrong to charge me, and will get the District Manager on it. After eating, I go back to the store, and in my booming voice, announce that I just got off the phone. I also accuse the Manager of either being an idiot, or trying to take home my $120. I got my money back, and a new warranty.

Sometimes, the little guy wins one

Major 2, did it come with 3 mags at no extra charge?

I hear there is a new western movie coming out.  The story line is some 21st Century folks are transported back through time into the old west.  They have with them Glocks, AR's and assault type shotguns.  Maybe there will be a new category coming??

The original Glock.

Kewl, but it's still a plastic gun. 

On the way home yesterday, there were some crows in the road. All but one flew away. I straddled it so I wouldn't run it over with a tire. After I drove past where it was, I couldn't see it in my mirrors. As I was walking out of verk tonight, I saw a wing hanging down from under the Beast. It was stuck in the front suspension.

It worked for me. The Portuguese government doesn't want you to buy Glock entrenching tools.

Having the Glock Shovel on your gun belt is reminance of Annie Lee and her skillet El kabong, on her gunbelt:)

I think once you run all three mags thru a couple times you will decide to keep it.  Once you disassemble and clean it a couple times you'll find it easy to maintain. Easy on the lube. Arcey showed me the trick to break down. He loved Glocks. 
I carry my G22 Gen 3 for work two extra mags and one more in door panel of  jeep.

I traded a rifle for the Glock... i tried to talk the trader out of it, he insisted it is what he wanted. I recently traded one for a AR and i read at another forum he traded it for a Lancaster patterened rifle.  I have just out right sold some for the lack of money and trying to do the adult.
thing.  Still got some to sell and get rid of before i go. Some i might trade.  Life us short, i haven't shot every gun

Morning all.

I've been on top of a mountain all week, "getting trained."  Basically, I sat on a stool and listened to the radio while watching for smoke.  Yesterday was my first solo day.  It went well enough.  There was only one smoke in my reporting zone, but my sister-tower across the valley got it called in before I did. 

Today is my day off, then I'm on a six day week starting tomorrow.  Hello overtime. 
I'm going to take my dog for a good long walk now.

You need to watch, if you have not already, "The Ranger, the Cook and a Hole in the Sky".
I know Litl Rooster has seen it.
