Interesting room set-up you got going on there, the whale art really goes well with the guns!!! :rollin:

 

on a side note, those with the center console, I find if you take the owners manual, it is a really nice place to put your firearm when you can't carry it.

Why was the pistol in your lap, loaded or unloaded?

 

Hope all you keep on in the chamber or keep the mag locked and loaded guys are getting plenty of range time...far too many idiots out there making the rest of us look bad already :banghead:

 

Also - I don't care what anyone tells you ANY gun can be dropped and discharged. It's a simple as a gun without a safety catching a twig the wrong way when it lands.

 

If you think they can't, I hope you don't get shot in the leg.

 

FYI - Springfield 1911 with 13 round clip for the win.

 

In other news - sorry about your dent...

my m1 garand has 8 round clip and all my 223 is loaded on 10 round stripper clips....

Yeah guys who think a weapon can't discharge when it's dropped are like the guys who know it's not loaded when it "accidentally" fires. Reminds me of two of my friends who invited me to go shooting with them shortly after I returned home from the Army years ago. I declined, they were nice guys but stupid around firearms. One layed a .30-06 with a scope across the hood of his GTO and fired. Since the barrel is a bit lower than the scope he blew a nice chunk out his front fender. The other held his .44 magnum Ruger loosely in one hand and the hammer took a chunk out of his nose. Of course they both know more about firearms than I do. I was just a Sergeant E-5 with an Infantry M.O.S. back in '68-69.

Haha yea I hear ya. Some people with pistols specifically blow my mind away because even thought the certificate required is a joke of a class - these are all the simplest of safety rules they drill into your head. I can't even go to public ranges anymore because of how much cease firing goes on when I go with my friends.

I noticed a slight door dent just above the driver side rear fender.

 

BTW, I carry a 1911 as well - Kimber Ultra CDP. Love that pistol!

Got my first dent the 2nd day. Road garbage, put a 2 inch crease drivers door in front of the handle. Called a PDR guy...came to my house, took about an hour...completely gone...absolutely no sign of any damage...worth every bit of $100

Just found a dent on my right rear quarter panel...looks like someone was careless with opening their door. Im going to call my local PDR person.

Nice to know they can deal with crease type dents. I have one in my tailgate... looks like someone was an idiot loading lumber or something at Lowes... can't figure out how else they would have hit it that high (two dents and a scratch between them).

I just got a new Harley, so space is tight in our garage. Truck, wife's car and the bike. I opened the door into the wife's car side mirror. Tiny-tiny dent in the door. Can't even see it unless the light is right. Still bugs me though.
