Come on up TT, plenty of crazy **** going on here!!

Now I'm not in good enough shape to do too much crazy. I still wanna go skydive this summer though. I truly miss jumping out of aircraft

 

[churchmouse]

I have rode the mechanical scaffolds on the buildings around here to get to pieces of equipment. My brother was a window washer for a while until the scaffold failed and he had to be rescued by the fire dept.
Those guys do not make much at least around here.

I asked the CZ rep about the differences between the 06, 07 & 09. He said the 06 had the old style trigger and the 07 & 09 had the Omega trigger and the he preferred the Omega. Agree??

When I was a kid we used to have to go up and paint the masts about once a year. It used to be a blast but now it doesn't seem like it would be fun at all.

Isn't that what we have stairs for? I could have done that 30 years ago, but I'm just too broken now. From doing hard things.

Mmmm, maybe. The Omega trigger is probably a little better out of the box. Has less creep and is smoother. I like the standard triggers after they have been worked. The Omega doesn't seem to improve quite as much.

I was also surprised by the new Taurus Curve, that thing felt surprising well in my hand, but was so light that thing has to be snappy. But it would be cool as a in your pocket back up gun.

Have fun, Snap.

The Omega trigger was very smooth, but the "break" wasn't sharp. A little mushy.

Hey crbn!

i guess I'm the crazy one of the bunch because I always enjoyed doing the crazy ****

Howdy TT. I've always been fine walking into a storm, heights have always been my weakness.

Before he worked at Inland Steel my dad was an Iron Worker. He worked on the Bridges in Chicago. He still loves going up high. Over 80 years old and I can't keep him off the roof!!

I worked for a crew painting water tower tanks. It was an "On the road" job. I was 21 and fearless. Plus I needed the money. I was on my epic tour of the USA on my Pan head Harley. Job paid crazy money for the times. After a week up on the tank I found out why it paid so much.
Ever wonder how they paint from the middle down and under those huge oval tanks........Holy bat batman. Never been so tense at work.

Yes, they feel kinda funny to me. I have had a couple but never hung on to one. The 75B that is in the classifieds has an Omega trigger. Not sure whether the owner of it knows that or not.

 

[SEIndSAM]

The big surprise for me was the Walther CCP, their new compact pistol. The trigger on that was TERRIBLE!!!! I really liked it other than that, it felt really good in the hand.

You can read that on INGO any day of the week. "I love my pocket gun, it's so light and easily concealed. The trigger really sucks though"

What's a good price for that gun? I've been wanting one

 

[Mr Evilwrench]

Never did the heights thing much, but I did fall off my roof once. Hit every branch on the ugly tree on the way down and landed halfway on the lawn roller. Bruised all to hell. I just dragged my carcass out and laid there to catch my breath for a few minutes, then when I could get up I came in and got profoundly intoxicated because I didn't have any morphine.

It surprised me because I have fired a few Walther plastic pistols, used to own a PK380 and a friend has several Walthers. Those triggers are okay. This one is bad...and I'm not a trigger snob, you would hate it...
