Just thought I'd let folks know that I'll be @ Bowers Tactical today around 3pm.

If you're free & in the area, come on by so we can meet.

I'll be picking up a couple of their extractor spring upgrades (thanks to Bert for helping me troubleshoot the problem my SP1 is having).

I was there earlier, but plan on staying in the basement where it's cool the rest of the day.

Thinking about it Thomas, it might not be a bad idea to have the Flaming Butterfly (noted above) to replace the ejector springs as well. It should kick that brass out with a bit more authority.

Wish I wasn't working... Always fun to go into Bowers and drool on myself looking at their inventory. [Beer]

While true, not nearly as badly as when I'm in places synonymous with "Champions of 2A!" [Coffee]

I need to swing down there and check it out one of these days. Just a little far from my neck of the woods to impromptu meet up. Bowers cuts and threads barrels correct? I have an idea for a project that I might run by you.

Actually, a little farther north up to BP tactical for that. No room for a lathe here.

I was there yesterday and the day before...probably would have stopped by today except for the Bike to Work thing. Dang that shop is addictive.

Every time I do, I get the feeling that you are trying to give me the "Bum's Rush" out the door..........[Dunno][Dunno]
Is it my deodorant ? Mouthwash ? Or both ?

You are really going to have to explain that to me man. People hang out here for HOURS. Even people I am openly verbally abusive to (don't worry, its actually WHY they come here) don't feel compelled to leave.

Maybe its a bad feng shui thing. Now that i think of it, there isn't any black furniture in the main room. hmmm.

Seriously, no one is pushing you out the door. If you are legitimately feeling that way, i would like to know why.

I love Bowers other than everytime I stop by I end up spending too much money. The other day I went in for a couple ammo cans then ended up with a new grip, sling, mounts:)

I can attest to being one of "those guys".

I'm the annoying kid who uses the shop tools and circles the shop about 800 times before he leaves....

I get out of there pretty cheap (only $35 today, until I remembered something else for another $15) - otherwise my wife would kill me.

Naw. That thread was a jab at this thread. It's okay, I've got guys going over to break a knee cap for that infraction now.

I had to leave the Springs, uh, for work....oh, and that little misunderstanding about some woman's marital status. How was I supposed to know? She wasn't wearing a ring.

I miss the days when I cut one of your paychecks, at least then the verbal abuse was a two way street, now Its a one way range.

Please follow protocol and do so in a clockwise circle. Otherwise we get jammed up at the gloves [ROFL1]

I love how the last "a" of GNAA stands for "of America" but their website ends with ".eu"
