Just curious how much was the Garrison going for?

At that store it was 899.00 which is close to MSRP, they are out there in the 700's.

If he wants it before 30 days +shipping time they aren't the one. If he can wait then they will deliver.

They literally mean this.
Need it soon? We’re not your Huckleberry. Our shipments can take up to 30 days.

Ahhh ... I see the glass breaker now.

I watched a pickup roll into a lake off a boat ramp once, when we fished it out the doors were all locked which scared me a little thinking that's what modern cars do when they go in the water. I can see why people carry glass breakers.

Yep.

I thought the Leek with a reverse tanto blade was kinda a cool take on the Leek. Guess it actually is called a Random Leek which, as an aging male, I found kinda funny.

My fear is reality based also.

I must have been about four years old and was rolling down the road with Dad in his Eldorado. He was a fire captain at the time.

We came upon a fully engulfed car on the side of the road. Wind was blowing back in our direction.

Dad pulls in behind the car at a distance, jumps out and dons his fire gear stored in the trunk and disappears into the smoke. Next time I see him, he is pulling a guy towards us from the smoke.

Something like that imprints deeply on a young mind!

I really don't have a "fear" of entrapment but lets just say I am aware. Having a son as a career firefighter probably serves to remind.

I read an article today about people getting stuck in their new electric Fiskars because the key fob went wacky.

Four….

Done in the garage for the day. Tomorrow I'll be doing optic cuts for a Leupold Deltapoint Pro on both 2011 guns.

I asked a friend who has a modern car repair shop about the doors locking once and he said nobody really knows what modern car electronics will do in untested conditions. I know cars going into the water is a rare thing but I've seen it more than once. I pulled the pickup in the earlier post out with a log chain.

The gardener made this to send to some friends with a Chevy truck. The cab was completely flooded, it looked like an aquarium as I pulled it out.
