I saw this on Garand Thumb, and thought it was something out of Blade Runner. Its not much more than compensator using the existing hardware for the rear sight on a Colt Python with some custom work to the action. It looks pretty awesome for the sake of people that want to pretend they live in the future. We are living in the future right?
Unfortunately, this looks like a Colt only sort of deal. Because it appears to use the ribbing over the top of the barrel for added strength, no such device is currently available for S&W. It looks like Empire has a top rail but I’m fine with my 686 for now.

6.2 Earthquake literally leaves Mexico shaking — oh wait, no casualties. It looks like they’re doing better than California, so much so they sent Bomberos to help. Please note, the video is clearly not from SoCal.

I’m pretty sure colloquial names of bodies of water can be called whatever the fuck we want (i.e. Persian Gulf vs. Arabian Gulf). Texans have only called their state the Republic of Texas for well over a century.

They’re still taking Trump literally.
Here’s a tune. I need to run reports now. Have a great Tuesday!

Sweet baby Jesus! Why?!?!?
To sell, of course.
Yeah, the point of a 3” revolver is its size. So larding it up with a light, compensator, optic is just dumb.
They make one that fits a 6” barrel
I will sacrifice size for capacity!
“They’re still taking Trump literally.”
That kind of tactic only works if dipshits like this guy believe him.
Also, I’m eagerly awaiting the first hoax of the new admin. Will it be crazier than Trump telling people to drink bleach? We’ll see.
As someone who as two Colts, DA’s with the same internals as a Python, I tentatively approve. Not big on lasers on handguns, but big on Colt. I also have two Smiths, and lets just say that there is a difference. A big one.
I think that’s a light. Although, some lights do have built in lasers.
Eh, whatever the optics are.
I mean, the mount is clever and looks well-engineered, and it’s not even unattractive. But man, super impractical for anything except for some fringe hunting and wilderness defense cases.
So maybe the dude’s a fringe hunter or something…

Spring season opens in March. I recommend a conversion van in the Jo-Anns parking lot as a blind.

Truly nuts,
The friction tape on the grip makes for a nice personalization. Kind of ties the gun together.
If you flip it over you can see the chewing gum that holds on the laser.
Just needs some baling wire to complete the look.

I have to admit, in my limited revolver experience smooth wood grips are a stupid idea.
ESPECIALLY out of a 3″ 629.
I bought a 686 Talo. It came with gorgeous wood grips that I replaced with Hogue after the first range session.
I have a Taurus 66 with the Hogues. Can’t imagine wood grips on that, especially with a heavy load.
My experience with colt double action revolvers means I spend my money on Smith and Wesson or Ruger.

“When the US president-elect threatens Greenland, Panama and my country, Canada, I don’t think he’s joking.”
What’s he worried aboot, Canada’s just a more polite version of the US with worse weather and cheaper but shittier healthcare anyway. Things would barely change. Also, he’s trolling.
Sam Elliott voiceover:
It’s not cheaper
@jarflax, thank you. We’re on the partition. I may email you later.
No thanks needed, it just happens to be an issue I have seen before and know a little about.
What an interesting pistol. Is it for zambies, or did John Constantine use it to deport Demons?
Does Gene Simmons use it to fire bullets around corners?
No, but I can’t speak for Richard Simmons
Richard Simmons is more likely to shoot through glory holes.

added strengthher pleasure?Trump may desire to change the name due to his antagonistic approach to diplomacy with Mexico. He’s criticized the country several times in the past. He believes it’s not pulling its weight when it comes to border security, immigration, and international drug trade.
If by “pulling its weight” you mean “facilitating the passage of third world peasants and profitable deadly narcotic to their northern neighbors,” then Mexico is indeed getting the job done.
You know how much narcotics would flow from Mexico into the U.S. if we had zero demand? You can’t keep shit out of prisons, so there is no way you are keeping it out of the country. As far as the migrants – what did Mexico do last time Trump was in the White House? Oh, that’s right they shut their southern border tighter than a bulls ass.
Do bulls, in fact, have tight asses?
I have no knowledge about the tightness of a bull’s ass, but I would very much enjoy watching the results of someone trying to find out.
A guy I shot with back in college, his family had a cattle farm. He took a certain pleasure in describing to the rest of the team, the various livestock that he’d fisted and the relative dimensions of each orfice. As a side note, we always had the best damn burgers for post-shooting trip cookouts…
Just borrowing one of my barn-owner’s favorite phrases.

Yeah, if you’d use the new cover sheets, that would be, great.
“bodies of water can be called whatever the fuck we want”
Indeed, and not just the colloquial names, but the official names on US-govt produced maps.
The Sea of Galilee has several other local names. And I expect that some people on its banks refer to Lake Victoria by other names.
““bodies of water can be called whatever the fuck we want””
Except in Minnesoda where such words as Squaw or Papoose will be renamed into something that real people won’t be afraid to use, like Lake Indigenous Woman or Lake Child of Indigenous Persons.
I was just at Squaw Lake a couple of weekends ago.

Oh, and have they renamed Coon Rapids yet?
We locals renamed it long ago. I’m certain you can guess.
Nobody better try to rename any of Virginia’s ‘.*ass.*’ locations (Assawoman, Bumpass, Manassas, …).
Local radio show in the Twin Cities once had a retired black guy who used to teach in Coon Rapids call in.
The black guy was laughing about how he won the Teacher of the Month award a few times, but it was called Coon of the Month. He wasn’t offended at all, but said he could not convince him mom who lived in Mississippi that it was a good thing.
I was expecting this as the featured song: https://youtu.be/F6z0Cv4PYvs?si=qAYUrbcohqSNr1PG
Trump is clowning almost all Canadian politicians, of all stripes right now.
The sad thing is, there are 4 years of his first term, plus 14 fucking seasons of The Apprentice they could watch to understand how he works.
He wants Canada to secure its borders, control the flow of fentanyl, and increase defence spending, all things the majority of Canadians want.
But, no, they’re all behaving like he literally wants to make Canada the 51st state and they’re running against him.
Literal retards.
You are expecting the cat to figure out that the bright red spot is not a real thing. Ain’t gonna happen.
Twelve days into 2025 and I have already broken what amounted to my one and only New Year’s resolution.
I made a vow not to succumb to the easy temptation to write about the madness every time Donald Trump pens an insult-laced tweet or bombastic statement – without, of course, using spell check.
I tapped out.
“Get back on our head, loser!”
You read farther into Mexican’s post than the rest of us did.
I dont know about other states but in Louisiana we have a special provision that specifically prohibits controlling your estate from beyond the grave.
Biden can order whatever he likes, it will make no difference. This executive order business was a bad idea in the first place. Pen and phone my ass. The president signs bills into law. Bills that pass congress. Little by little we have strayed from our original principles into older, more primitive ideas to our detriment.
This is FDR’s fault, as usual.
Yeah, consider how much Congress debated tariffs in the early days of the republic and all they really needed to do was pass a law about national security and ba-da-boom – the president now gets to decide.
The executive order should only apply to the executive branch. IE a boss needs to order his employees, a general his troops.
And that is it. None of this BS.
I think most of them fit that format. It’s just that the executive is so vast and has had so many powers “delegated” to it by Congress that it effectively becomes a kind of legislative fiat.
I think that was the idea in the first place. Slippery slopes are slippery. Plus, what RC says.
Walk faster.
I couldn’t make it past the inevitable sob story to find a point in that article.
Did we cover Biden’s removal of Cuba from the terrorstate list? Another going away gift.
What a petulant bitch that guy is.

Harmful chemicals in sewage sludge that is spread on pasture land as fertilizer are causing cancer, the Environmental Protection Agency said Tuesday. The risk is highest for people who regularly consume milk, beef and other products from farms where it is spread. The risk is “several orders of magnitude” above what it considers acceptable, the agency said.
When cities and towns treat sewage, they separate the liquids from the solids and treat the liquid. The solids need to be disposed of and can make a nutrient-rich sludge often spread on farm fields. The agency now says those solids often contain toxic, lasting PFAS that treatment plants cannot effectively remove.
When people eat or drink foods containing these “forever” chemicals, the compounds accumulate in the body and can cause kidney, prostate and testicular cancer. They also harm the immune system and childhood development.
Everything will kill you.
Sounds to me like one of the big ag companies came up with a new fertilizer. Yay.
I’m more worried about the fucking mRNA “vaccines” the douchebags want to inject into the food supply.
“Most at risk are people who drink one quart of milk per day from dairy cows raised on pasture with the biosolids, eat one or two servings of fish a week from a lake contaminated by runoff, or drink PFAS-laden water, the draft risk assessment said.”
Time to stop treating sewage. Just load the stuff into rockets and launch them toward the sun. Elon can make it happen.
A quart of milk a day seems like a lot to me
Here’s some irony: the facilities that process plastic for the alleged recycling are responsible for a *huge* amount of plastic in the water supply. Go green!
This has been my idea about trash for decades now. You want it gone? Incinerate it. Biggest incinerator in the galaxy.

Why is it a gulf and not a sea? Sea of Cortez is a cool fucking name.
How about Sea of DeSoto?
If you can get people accept Sea of Cortez, you’ll know that woke is officially dead. Neil Young (one of the OG wokies) has a whole song about what a horrible colonizer he was.
My public school geography education is showing.
It’s called the Sea of Cortez, by the Mexicans and the San Diegans, fuck California

CS:
Yeah, it’s time to rewatch Apocalypto. As a matter of fact, maybe I should send a copy to Neil lol.
Warren should have been the third guitarist with the Church for that song. He’s so fucking amazing and I don’t know if the rest of the DMB measured up.
As you might have already guessed I have no use for Neil Young. None at all.
Cortez was a fucking hero.
Meh, yes the ‘noble savage’ thing is grade A bullshit but mass murder is bad. Cortez may not have couched his human sacrifices in some goofy religion but human sacrifices for “the rule of law” or “the good of the people” are just as bad. An evil piece of shit can stop another evil piece of shit but it doesn’t make him a fucking hero.

https://apnews.com/article/biden-transgender-trump-athletes-military-1f4ec4975cd02edab824094218710140
***
President Joe Biden began his term in the White House with a broad promise to protect transgender Americans against Republican policies that painted them as a threat to children and sought to push them out of public life.
“Your president has your back,” Biden assured trans people in his first State of the Union address in 2021, and he repeated a version of that statement in subsequent speeches.
But with President-elect Donald Trump days away from taking office after piling on transgender people throughout his campaign, some worry Biden did not do enough to shield them from what’s likely to come.
The president-elect has declared that “it will be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders — male and female,” and pledged to sign a series of executive orders targeting trans people early in his presidency.

Hayes: The trans population is far smaller than the right would have you believe
Before the whole transing kids thing, this was my main problem with the whole thing. The population of trans people is far too small and inconsequential to spend the amount of time on their “issues” that the elites wanted us too. Up until 10 years ago they the population was like 1 in 10,000 and that’s probably very generous. Yet, digital ink was being spilled by the Exxon tanker about how we need to remake all of society to cater to the wants and needs of a tiny population of mentally ill individuals.
How about no? We have actual problems to worry about.
The revolution won’t succeed with that attitude.
^^ This right here. None of trans’ sudden popularity makes *any* sense except “They’re lying.”
They = Cultural apparatchiks, Useful Idiots & the DNC. I’m not sure why trans ‘worked’ on folk, but there ya have it. The MtF dude I worked with was very open about being fucked up, and did not pass in any way whatsoever. *bemused scratchin’ of the noggin’*
I don’t have any problems to worry about.
