Get the SBEII and a Savage 110 bolt action rifle. You can buy that rifle, the most accurate out of the box production rifle made, for the same or less than you can get a Benelli slug barrel. Yes, the 3.5" pays dividends with big tough birds like geese, swans, cranes, turkeys.

Not at all. I need to change clothes and put on my boots. Then I'll be ready.

It is the tears of Italian angels. Well, no. It's actually CLP.

They are plugs made of plastic. They push out from the inside of the receiver. Disassemble the gun into the major components. Upper receiver, lower receiver, barrel group, and forearm. Remove the bolt handle and slide the bolt out of the upper receiver. Push the plugs out from the inside using a small pin punch or screwdriver.

The worst part is finding the right tool to press down the spring and still leave room for the pin to go through. A decent pin punch set is invaluable.

Here you go. Tap out 012A. Watch 007J fly across room. Find 007J. Remove 008A. Reverse 013C. Reinstall detent and spring.

Stock one. It's a fairly easy thing to do. I've got a picture somewhere.

Interesting. I thought they were symmetrical but I've never laid hands on one. Call CS and ask them about swapping it.

To each his own. I'm going to get mine dipped to cut down on maintenance. The Benelli factory matte black finish needs a good bit of TLC or it will rust.

Glad to hear that they're still making the town smell like waking up. I used to work for Russell Stovers. 1991 - 1999

KC! I like that town. I used to go there about every other year for a week at a time. Nice, friendly people. I remember the smell of coffee as we came into downtown from the airport. I used to stay at the Radisson and Doubletree downtown. Went to Lawrence and saw a concert at the Granada one night. Semisonic and Remy Zero. It's been a while.

I use bibs or pants with cargo pockets. No vest. No backpack. Travel light.

Matt, They're in MO, correct? $190? I'm looking at getting mine done soon.

Nice blind! Quit smoking. Eat more oranges.

The Benelli trigger group is a very simple design. If you have any mechanical ability, you should be able to tear it down and pinpoint the problem. If you cannot, you need to take it to a competent gunsmith or friend.

What he said. #018A in the drawing.

I'm just doing it to fill time. Now I'm done for the day. I'm going to pop open an Arrogant B@st@rd, turn on the TV, prop up my damaged leg and watch qualifying.

Rest in Peace

That was because the current opposition at that time was made up of three year-olds. It has been refreshing to have an adult in the room, and I have responded in kind. You still cast dispersions, but you certainly have a more subtle and eloquent approach than your predecessors exhibited. I do have a hunch that skeeter is brighter than he'd have many of us believe. It's just easier to get away with being a child when you act like one. You still stereotype me and try to fit me into an existing box, presumably so that you can better understand what you're dealing with. I suppose I could return the favor and auto-associate you with the worst of the right. Say perhaps Larry Craig? Do you play coded gay pickup footsie in men's room stalls too? I doubt that you do, but I have a need to associate you with a known negative representation of your political views, so I guess I'll go with that one for now. So there you have it. A political debate between Larry Craig and Michael Moore, the worst of both sides, right here on a gun forum. Whodathunkit? Who said anything about Conservatism? I was talking about modern Republicans.

One more thing about all of the fear-mongering over "Socialized Medicine". Have you ever compared Insurance to Socialism? As far as I can tell, the only difference is that Insurance is Socialism, but with a profit for those who run it. Otherwise, they're basically the same model. The many contribute small amounts each so that that the few who need use the services can have access to them. The premise is that more money comes in than is paid out. After overhead, etc., what's left over becomes profit. The simple reason that we need insurance in the first place is that we may need to spend more to save a life than that life is worth. That's the practical side of it. The moral side says we can't simply let people die, just because they can't afford to pay the costs to save them. On the surface, insurance sounds like a good solution to the problem. We all pay in and hope we don't get sick. Some do get sick, but they have access to the resources that the rest of us didn't need to use. However, since the system is profit-based, the people who run it are under constant pressure to reduce the amount paid out and increase the amount paid in. Simple math. When they start thinking of ways to accomplish these goals, they begin to lose track of what the system is supposed to be doing in the first place. They start looking for ways to get the people who are needing the services out of the system. They are leeches. Ideally, insurance companies want a bunch of healthy people paying in, and very few sick people taking money out. Another problem with the system is that people like me, who otherwise could not afford to have a litany of diagnostic tests and procedures done, can afford to do so with insurance. At face value, this sounds like a good thing. But is it? How many tests and procedures are done unnecessarily in this country each year. Collectively, American spend more and get less from our healthcare system than any other industrialized nation. We get a sniffle and run to the doctor, because insurance pays for it, not us. Insurance skews the very basis of supply and demand by overstating the buying power of the individual to levels well beyond their actual capacity. This leads to a false sense of what we, as a collective group, can afford. That inflated perception drives providers to charge more than their services are worth, because they know that while the individual may not be able to afford it, the group certainly can. Toss in cheating, corruption, fraud, increased operational costs, processing costs, litigation costs, etc., and you have our wonderful health insurance model. Socialized medicine for a Capitalist society. Freedom! Doesn't it feel great?!

Reagan ridding the world of Communism is going to come as quite a shock to China. You remember China? They are the people the Republicans borrowed all of that money from to fund their "booming economies." But your beloved Reagan was a master at foreign policy. No one's arguing that. He just sucked at domestic policy. Don't get me wrong. If you were rich, Reagan was your best friend. He cut the top tax bracket from 70% to 28%, but he didn't raise minimum wage once. I'm simply not rich enough to be a Republican. I like guns too much to be a liberal. It's a tough spot to be in. But it is the category that probably most Americans fall into comfortably. Extremists views and policies are not what we need right now. There is a a lot of middle ground between these two parties, but no one seems to want to step into it. The Democrats thought they would steamroll with the so-called super-majority, but all they did was drive a wedge in between two halves of Congress, forcing everyone to choose a side. Some even changed sides as the wedge was being driven deeper. The Republicans got their feelings hurt and decided to say no to everything, regardless of what their constituency might have felt about it. They wanted a seat at the table. Now they've been offered a conciliatory seat, but they're afraid to take it, because this new guy has made them look like fools once already, with his atypical knowledge of the issues. Government is gridlocked. While other countries move forward by implementing policies and programs, we tread water in a rip current. Spending v appropriation. Presidents can spend. They just can't raise revenues without Congress. See Bush & General Motors for more on that. Although Congress had specifically declined to give money to GM, Bush pulled money from the bank bailout appropriations and gave it to them. I wonder what he's driving these days?
