They look really good, I want to get some used carts now
. By any chance do either of you maxus77 or lord Geordie shoot at Steve smith shooting ground and would give me a few spent carts? Just I don't have a shot gun (yet) but I will be going up with my air rifle. -
Alienware is the puppies nuts of gaming pcs. It's all about how they are put together and the parts used. Certain components work better with others. I had the pleasure a while back now lending a mates Alienware laptop, it wasn't as high spec as my viao but the benchmarkes where much better. You could get a PC with the same numbers for less(same amount of SDRAM same hard drive size so on) But it won't have the same quality parts inside. If I remember rightly (please correct if I am wrong)A cheap graphics card uses the same chipset as a expensive one its about the architecture/design of the circuit board that makes them stand out. That's what you pay for in Alienware

I have three mates (ones and welder, NDT and painter) who are dopes on ropes and my climbing buddy is trying to get into it. With out a trade there isn't much out there Welder,NDT, blaster, sparky so on. Climbing buddies brother does it he did a course called OPITO Application of Non Metallic Insulation Course with his rope course and offshore tickets at a local training centre http://www.aidirect.co.uk/training-courses/opito-insulation-courses I had go at climbing the ropes in the park near mine using the Ascender and shunt gear, dam near killed me not a fit as I thought lol
Edit
All three lads I had mentioned all work off shore or abroad. Not sure if there is much in the uk my climbing buddy (jugz) that's why he's finding it hard for a start as most of it is working away and he has a dog and no one to look after her

This is the type of film I'm looking for, but would like to know if anyone else has fitted this before, and how much did it reduce the amount of light coming into the room?
Sorry had forgot to type a response as well. There is a few reviews off people who used it on there, my mam and dad have some fitted on caravan Door windows. It's ok at certain viewing angles in makes no difference as such, but at others you can't see in.

That's savage, the damage you could do with 32 shot shells is crazy could you imagine 32 slugs? Scary stuff
Wonder how many Americans get one for turkey hunting lol

+ for the hammer option or a target to shoot at. Things can be recovered off a formatted drive. Just take the hard drive out and break it.

I'll bet they're all on red alert now, Panic buying tins of baked beans, strutting around dressed head to toe in camou, practising tactical hand signals and mock military style manoeuvres and getteing ready to hunker down in the hills because Kin jong diddly doo dah has his finger on the button.
" c'mon jim-bob I want that M16 stripped and cleaned in two minutes....we still got A hundred chilli dogs to pack and mama is point...."

Pitbull pressure bite was 235 lbs
German Shepherd bite was 238 lbs
Bulldog bite was 305 lbs
Wild Dogs bite force was 317 lbs
Rottweiler bite force was 328 lbs
Wolf bite force was 406
Mastiff (test dog was a Dogue de Bordeaux) was 556 lbs
Turkish Kangal was 714 lbs
Contrary to popular culture, the dog's jaw has a lot to tell about its bite force. The wider the jaw, the stronger the bite. Consequently, the Bulldog (305 lb) has a stronger bite than the German Shepherd (238 lb).
As we enter into the larger breeds with shorter snouts (called brachycephalic molossoid types), we find the strongest among the canine breeds. Simply put, the jaws are wider and stronger in dogs with broad heads.
Think that's the national geo studies. I had read someone had wrote a labs bite force was over 600 (658) and close to a lions bite force of 700 but a mastif is said to be the most powerful bite force of domestic dogs. The above is a cut and paste I don't bite forces off the top of my head I just I would read up

Just reading back over the thread I find suprising the references to being a grass or traffic wardens, jobs worthy and the like. I mean if OP had turned up to buy a shotgun but got there and it was a illegal sawn off or the person held no SGC. Would you just expect nothing to be said and not report to a FAO. Or a car that was a ringer not to be reported. Yes it's dog but its a banned breed and the woman knew this.
-
Yes but modern Pitts are still bred for fighting so still go though the breeding program. Aggressive dogs bred with aggressive bitches to get leaner meaner fighting machines. The fact you rescued a fighting pitt and trusted it with kids to me is crazy. Staffs and other fighting dog breeds don't go though the same breeding now and the fight over the years have been bred out.And so are pits.
satffs were bred for fighting too but are great with kids unless owned by an idiot and trained to be nasty to people too.
Pitbulls are largely thought to be bred from staffs with a lot of people saying they originated as staff x coonhound.
I rescued a Pit once that was fought a lot, she was great with people and especially kids.
Most terriers are exceptioanlly agressive if you are a rat but soft as hell with kids.
Lets face it just about anyone can own a shotgun, should we ban all cos of what could happen?
Also the shotgun thing is a bit daft really, not anyone can own one.

A Pittbull also known as an "American Staff"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pit_bull
Look, I'm not pro dangerous dog, really I'm not. I just feel these pups are innocent and have just as much chance of being as placid as any breed of dog given that they are half lab.
I understand what your saying and I can see your point of view. The way I look at it is, they are dangerous due to traits bred into it. The worst bit is tho they are breeding a Pitt bull, maybe these pups weren't what they where after maybe more lab than Pitt bull. Reporting may get the Pitt bull dog or bitch off the streets and the pups said to be ok.
-
Staff, Am Staff, Pitt Bull - w/e
So lets just destroy some innocent pups on the back of "oh they might be powerful, and oh they might go to the wrong people"
Yes destroy them. It's stated they are a Pitt bull cross which are dangerous dogs they are bred for fighting and aggression. I know someone (dads mate) who has bred staffs for years fully registered and are lovely dogs. But staffs aren't Pitts which some people forgot that. Real staffs are nice dogs, I don't trust them, but I don't trust any dog fully as all have a chance to bite.
-
When this pitbull cross grows up and takes an opportunity to rip your dogs throat out will that be OK?
One of the things that stops me getting another dog is the amount of morons with 'hard' dogs that you have to contend with when out for a walk.
Personally I would put every single one down.
I was just thinking along the same lines. What happens if six months down the line you hear of a dog attack on a human or other dog by a Pitt bull lab cross?
-
It's not a staff, its a Pitt bull cross. If there was nothing illegal why didn't she just advertise as a Pitt bull lab cross? Also you only have her word it was crossed with a lab and aren't Pitt bulls a cross bred in its self so adding a lab might not change much depending on what the pit bull dog or bitch was crossed with in the first placeAre you guys kidding me, if you put a pitt bull across a lab the resulting pups are no longer pitt bull, and it is not an offence to sell a mongrel.Jeeez its not a Trex crossed with Jeffery Dahmer!
The killer staff histeria on PW is a joke, ignorance personified.
-
I would report it, the dog could end up in the wrong hands and used for bad things.

I think I should have worded the riots bit better, sorry. I had meant just short term like being hauled up in the house for a few days not being able to get to shops or no shops open sort of thing rather than a wide spread social disorder. Again sorry I should have been clearer.
I like the idea of box of candles and torches. Am going to get myself a box a use that Idea. I have a couple of torches and candles dotted about but not enough for a power cut. It's a good point about the weather, my area wasn't hit at all, it was cold but nothing bad. My mam and dad have a wood burner so think a trip to there's would be in order. My house is a new build and doesn't have a fire place so its not a option, also the meters are prepayment so if the shop shut am screw for gas and electric.

seen one or two, its crazy... i think the uk is behind the usa but they do it here, there was a show on a couple of months ago about uk preppers
I am going to have a look online for it see if I can download it, would be good to watch
I must admit, i do watch them........ if i cant find anything better,
You might think they,r crazy, But like they say, when the brown stuff hits the fan, Who,s gonna be crazy then? So i think they have a point, even if some of them look like nut cases. Yeah they do have the right idea because if anything happens then they are going to be sorted and in a better position then me. I just find the lengths they go to is crazy, but I guess it's boarder line crazy and genius
When the S hits the fan society will break down so totally that having guns and a stash of food will just make you a big target. Do you imagine the starving neighbours will allow to just live in peace while they watched their kids die?.
No matter how many guns you have you can't defend your house against a hungry mob who will have guns too.
The only ones who might stand a chance are those who have dug hideaways in very remote areas but even then people will know they are there.
In Britain we stand no chance, we only have food for about two days in the shops, on day three the riots will break out all over Britain, shops will be looted first, then they will start on houses looking for food.
The lights will go off because workers won't turn up for work, so will the water, and all the mobile phone sytems will go off because that is Government policy to stop the rioters communicating. Farmers fields will be stripped of everything that be killed or carried off.
Then what?
I think the best plans are the one where they head for the hills so to speak. Your right as soon as someone sees or thinks you have food you would have different mobs attacking the house everyday.
Got it on series link for rainy days,i think if i were to be a prepper the last thing i would do is to declare it to all on a tv programme lol,think best plan would be to try to keep a low profile so like vince said above you don't become a target
Yeah nothing like painting a big target on your back by showing off your huge food,weapon and meds supply. I would keep it quite if I was hoarding that much stuff.
I must admit I have considered things that I wouldn't of thought about before. I mean I bought a springer rifle with this in mind (and for the fun), I mean what happened the other year with the riots goes to show some areas are on a knife edge. Now with benefits being cut and the likes its making for a un easy time IMHO. Now all I need is 50 acres of woodland and some shipping containers

I had spoke to my lass about this post (she's a mental health nurse). What she had said is the tablets you are on, carry a bit of a stigma around them. It's noted and well documented about the side effects of the pills mainly the suicide/dark thoughts (as she put it). She had thought due to this, maybe they are on a bar list of some kind. She had said ( like most people have on here) is to the have a word with your doctor, with what he/she said. If the tablets are on a bar list you maybe able to change medication to something else but still get the same benefits. I hope you get it sorted, you seem to have the help of basc and the determination to see it though. Fingers crossed and good luck.

Does anyone watch it? I watched all the first season and now catching up on the second. It's crazy the lengths people go to on the show. Just watched one where the couple keep a minimum 4000 bullets in most cals. It strange watching it in regards to gun as well, people on the show have hand guns in a draw or on a shelf behind a book also shotguns just dotted about the home not locked up. The money people spend as well is crazy (IMO) seen a couple who had at least 75000 dollars in food and meds. If you don't watch I would recommend watching it at least once. Was wondering if anyone preps or has thought about? It doesn't seem to be that big in the uk at the moment

That's a neat little build, I thought at first how do they get to the nuts? Doh.. Hopefully you will give a good number of greys there last meal and fatten up some reds. Good luck
acupels .177 and woodies!
in Airgunners

I find the acupels great in my pistol (cp99) but not so great in my HW97, in that I use JSB exacts. I was told its due to the skirts on the accupels.
