TomAiello 26 #5 November 30, 2002 I once picked up a hitchhiker in Bishop, then had him drop me off on the trail to El Cap and meet me on the Valley floor that night. I think it's probably a better story when he tells it ("I was hitchhiking to the Valley, and this BASE jumper picked me up...")-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #8 November 30, 2002 I pick hitchhikers up all the time. Then again I'm one big muthafucker and I'm almost always armed. Once about a year ago, I picked up a guy on I-45 on the way to Dallas, he had been in the truck for about 40 miles or so then started acting really odd, getting agitated, etc. I pulled over, told him to get out. He said no. I dropped my left hand, came up with my trusted Glock, and set it (still in my hand) on my left leg and said "I told you to get out!" He said, "Oh! I don't want no trouble man." In which I replied, "well, you're about to buy some." He got out of the truck and I merrily drove along my way. He probably had fried his head with drugs or something, just not all there. Poor guy.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #14 November 30, 2002 I'm just getting really excited because a new state-of-the-art indoor range is opening in College Station in Janurary. Finally, nice computer controlled targets, climate controlled range...no more of this pinning crappy targets up outside at a range that won't even let me practice my double tap. I spent a lot of time and money on bullets getting to the level I am with a pistol and I've been loosing my edge since the current range won't allow ANY rapid fire. I almost got kicked off the range for double tapping (never mind that all of the rounds were going in the 10ring, no, the range master can't actually say that I know what I'm doing and that I could do it, nooooo).--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

skybytch 265 #18 November 30, 2002 Quoteall you have to do is drive out into the countryside and throw things on the ground... Exactly. Just remember to pick up your brass and whatever you threw on the ground for a target and take it back home with you. Then the treehuggers can't say a word...

CWiggum 0 #24 November 30, 2002 I used to have a Desert Eagle .50, I think it's overrated, so I sold it. and, at $1.00 per shot, it kinda drained the jump funds. now I just keep my favorite handgun, H&k .40 I love H&k, they kick ass.
