Is there any kind of safety features on that little thing? Seems like if you snag the hammer putting it in your pocket it's probably going to go off.. I'm guessing you have a little holster that covers the hammer?

Beretta Nano with talon grips, laser and phosphorescent sight dots is my main "in town" carry gun. If I'm in the mountains camping or whatever it's a 9mm Beretta PX4 compact. I have hybrid holsters for each - similar to your pic, but leather instead of nylon. I don't have any good pics online.

I'm guessing you haven't seen it yet. Nobody goes to Mad Max expecting it to profoundly speak to them, or have a detailed intricate plot, or be up for an academy award. However, it does need some kind of plot, something more than essentially a 2 hour car chase. Weak excuse for the car chase...

Saw it today. Nothing but action - no story to speak of, no witty dialog and hardly any dialog at all, nothing clever, and other than much better special effects they could have taken vehicle chase scenes not used in the original movies and slapped them together for 90% of this new one...

This describes our one good renter. She was finishing her nursing degree (or something like that) and her fiance had some kind of decent job. Auto-deposited their rent in our account before the end of every month, and overall perfect renters. Unfortunately for us, when she graduated and got a...

We sold our property due to 3 of the 4 couples we rented to were bad renters and my wife didn't want to deal with yet another set of new ones. All my wife cared about was getting someone in to rent it and not let it go a month or two empty. I'll give you the same advice I tried to give my wife...

IMHO, very good. However, without looking into the prices I'm guessing they are going to be above the $6k budget for anything that's not salvage title or run into the ground.

I don't think any of them get "great" gas mileage, unless you consider low to mid 20's great. Beyond that, I think they are all fairly reliable. About the only specific I'd highly recommend is to get an extended cab version. A pick-up with essentially no usable space behind the seat can be a...

Keeping up momentum is very different from giving it more gas. I'm not a spotter, I don't think I have enough experience or know other peoples rides. I'm also the polar opposite of what you describe above. Call it paranoia of breaking things. I try to keep my momentum up (depending on the...

Getting married? Sell all and buy a Minivan + $200 trailer. :laughing: Seriously, I wouldn't want only 1 vehicle per person to use. Even new cars break down from time to time. The real question is if you only had one vehicle and it was in the shop, would you and your wife-to-be get by...

Sporty cars = manual* unless you DD it in heavy traffic. Everything else = automatic Forget all that manly man garbage, use what's best for the particular application. *I've never driven an automatic with flappy paddle manual shifting and have limited experience driving my wife's automatic...

I can't speak for everyone, but personally... No.

No side effects here or from anyone else I personally know that has had it done. No worries doing the deed, wife off birth control, great decision all in all. However, during the procedure the doc was demonstrating the procedure to an intern.. "Now we go to the other side and move this nerve...

I thought the law was 16" barrel and 26" overall?? Maybe shot guns are different than rifles for this? edit: Yep, just googled it and it is 18" and 26" overall for shotguns. Wonder why they are different from other rifles... edit2: Doh! I JUST now saw sawtooth4x4 linked the rules. Might...

Welcome! I used to wheel a Cherokee. They really do need a bit of lift and bigger tires, but on the plus side they are relatively inexpensive and you don't feel bad when you bang them up on the trails. Wouldn't be my first choice in my situation, too small for the wife, kids and dogs plus...

I have Craftsman 19.2v stuff, slowly collecting tools over the years. Having multiple tools that share the same batteries is handy. I don't know if I'd say I have too many batteries, but at 7 I'd say it's more than enough. Certain tools can really burn through batteries, I'd say 4 is probably...

Something else is going on. Tires way under inflated, something.. I haven't seen that much drop even going to larger tires. Heck, my XJ dropped less than that going from completely stock to ~5.5" lift and 32" MTs. I will say when we switch from regular all season tires to soft sticky...

Honestly, just about anything better than an Atom CPU should do. I'd recommend an i5 cpu, 4G ram, and SSD or hybrid drive. You could get away with less, but this should keep you happy for a few years.

Actually, there is wireless HDMI. Never tried it so no idea how well it works, and prices are all over the map for the hardware, but it IS possible with a regular old TV and nothing-special laptop. You will need to plug some kind of hardware in on each end though.

First question, what TV inputs do you have available? If it's a newish TV then it's almost guaranteed to have HDMI, so any laptop with HDMI out will do, or even a tablet but I wouldn't recommend a tablet for what you describe. Next question, do you plan to have it attached to your TV 100% of...
