Alabama thread!

Somebody's got something for sale that I want, and they live in Warner Robins.

 

I had one of those Makarovs at one time. It was very inexpensive when I bought it too, I think under a hundred bucks. Those will do the job for sure.

 

but seriously, after having probably ten different handguns- I agree with going with what feels best in your hands. That ended up being a Kahr for me. Traded a friend for it, figured I’d sell it, but it just felt so right...

Edit: I traded a friend something (an object) for it. I didn’t trade the friend for it. Semantics.

 

I’ve debated that haha

 

I’m going to get an energy sword

 

I'm a Glock fan boy Let me know if you run across any Aero M4E1 lowers. That's all I will use from here on out......just a personal choice.

 

make sure it’s the one from Super Fiesta that makes you run fast as shit though.

 

Judge .410

Alternate 410 and 45 long colt for double the fun

 

I got my dad one of those. I need to find me one

 

It was, I have been trying to get him more interested in nature. I spent the entire day showing him the different colored leaves and about lunch he was pointing out things to me. He said he enjoyed the day and wants to do it again.

 

I have one and love it.

 

If I’m going to have a “truck gun,” I’m going to bring it in the house with me so a thief doesn’t end up with a pistol.

It needs to be cheap enough to you not miss it if you have to use it and it ends up in police evidence, but it also needs to be able to feed the hollow points reliably.

Any gun I carry will have several hundred rounds of fmj shot through it and at least 100 hollow points shot through it reliably before I carry.

Same for any AR which I may or may not have along for the ride.

 

Pew pew!

 

Kids gravitate to the outdoors if you expose them to it. I grew up catching snakes, turtles, crawdads, etc in the creek by my house.

 

Like the avatar change.

 

Bet they are grinding them out right now. Figure overtime production is in high gear. Something wicked this way comes.

 

Yes it is, wolves in sheep's clothing.

 

I dunno

Firearms and ammo always sell well during

Elections
Unusual events (terrorist attacks, public events, civil unrest) just look at the numbers. People all over are first time firearms buyers. About half of American households own a firearm. My sister and her husband just purchased a firearm for the first time this past weekend.

 

Me too, that is why I want him to start seeing everything around him

 

From AlabamaWX

FRONT APPROACHING: We will bring in a chance of showers for Alabama later today and tonight, ahead of a surface front approaching from the northwest. Nothing too heavy or widespread; otherwise the day will be mostly cloudy with a high in the 75-79 degree range. Showers will be more numerous tomorrow, and there could be a rumble of thunder in spots… highs hold in the mid to upper 70s. Rain amounts between now and tomorrow night will be around 1/2 inch for most of the state.

Then, drier air returns late tomorrow night, and on Thursday the sky becomes partly sunny and humidity values will be lower. Friday promises to be a nice fall day; we begin in the 48-52 degree range, followed by a high in the low to mid 70s. The humidity will remain low Friday.

THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: Great uncertainty remains in the forecast due to the tropical system in the Gulf. For now, we will mention a chance of showers both Saturday and Sunday, but at the moment we are not expecting a “wash out” kind of situation. If you have something planned outdoors, just be aware that a shower could pass by from time to time. Otherwise, the weekend will be mostly cloudy with highs in the 70s.

NEXT WEEK: Global models are advertising a nice surge of cooler, drier air for much of the week. No rain, highs mostly in the 60s and lows in the 40s. See the Weather Xtreme video for maps, graphics, and more details.



ETA: Tropical Storm Eta, with 50 mph winds, remains in the far southern Gulf of Mexico this morning. The latest NHC forecast track moves the system slowly northward in the Gulf of Mexico, weakening to a tropical depression just south of Pensacola this weekend.



NHC forecaster Eric Blake writes in the morning discussion… “I have little confidence in the long-range track forecast due to its seeming dependence on the intensity, and the wide spread in the guidance.” Model spread remains wide, and know the forecast could change as the weekend gets closer. But, confidence is fairly high that the system will weaken late this week as it ingests dry air, and moves over cooler water in the northern Gulf. The main impact will be rain, but it remains to be seen where the axis of heavier rain will be on the Gulf Coast. Hopefully we can present a forecast with much better clarity tomorrow.

THETA: Subtropical Storm Theta formed yesterday in the middle of the Atlantic; it moving eastward, away from the U.S.



Theta is the 29th named storm of the season, a record for the Atlantic basin. However, 2005 still holds record for Atlantic hurricanes in a year with 15. 2020 currently in second place along with 2010 and 1969, at 12. A number of tropical storms this year were weak and short lived.

ELSEWHERE: A tropical wave located over the eastern Caribbean Sea is producing disorganized showers and thunderstorms. This wave is expected to move westward into more conducive environmental conditions, and a tropical depression could form late this week or this weekend when the wave reaches the central or western Caribbean Sea. If it becomes a tropical storm, the name will be “Iota”. It seems to be headed for Central America.

ON THIS DATE IN 2002: The “Veterans Day” tornado outbreak. A total of 88 tornadoes hit 17 states, including 12 tornadoes that killed 36 people in five states. This ranks as the third largest outbreak ever recorded in November. In Alabama, eleven tornadoes touched down, killing 12 people. Carbon Hill, in Walker County, was especially hard hit by an EF-3.
