The Czickness XII: The Usual Suspects.

Best part of this Monday has been surviving the work day to make it home. Which is kinda typical for a Monday.

Today was filled with suckage! Everything from the commute in, the work day and then the drive home. Suckage! Lots of it too. I hate driving in a 50mph at 35mph in a long string of traffic because two people are cruising at about the same speed next to each other. In the right lane was a couple of old women and I have no problem with the elderly doing their best to get around in traffic. But, in the left lane, pacing them was an airhead texting on her cell phone. Once the old women passed them and traffic started flowing past, the idiot was still cruising at 15 under while focused on her cell phone. I imagine even the old women were shaking their wrinkly old fists at her. Oh well, just another day amongst the 'me' generation I guess.

I did get a package in the mail today that had a bunch of surplus jackets. I picked up a Swiss mountain camouflage field jacket ($12), a Swedish field jacket ($10) and a Dutch flight jacket ($30). The only downside was that the black nylon flight jacket was supposed to be small enough for my son, but they sent it in a 42R. The Swiss jacket has an interesting camo pattern and enough pocket space to fit a small car. I could carry an 5 or 6 AR mags in the chest pockets alone.

The "Me" mentality.
I hate it.

The bright point of my day was finding a package on my doorstep when I got home. Nothing fancy, just some nice splatter targets I got on sale, but hey, it's been the kind of day where that's a win.

No such thing as a bad win.

Yup. A W is a W.

I'm sure if we stretched our collective hive mind we could find a circumstance that made the W kinda bittersweet, but a win is still a win.

Don't let'em under your skin, 88.

If your skin is like mine, there just ain't room for two of us in here.

That's the only way to keep your sanity in this 'me first' world. There's no changing them. Learning to let it go is the best coping mechanism.

Until they legalize killing them, but, in the mean time, we should go with your way.

Does anyone k ow of or have used any magazine extensions on a P01? I believe Taren tactical sells a plus 2, just wasn't sure if anyone had tried it on a p01 before.

Greg Cote offers the base pads that make a 16 round mag flush fit in a compact size gun or he offers them already modified. I have several and always use them when carrying a compact size gun.

I got the Green Machine and the Ghost back from the Wizard yesterday. He installed 10x bushings in both. They have been sitting in the safe for a while waiting on this upgrade. It was nice to take them to the range last evening. Those are two of the best I have and, in my opinion, represent what it is we hope to achieve when we start upgrading. It was so much fun shooting these truly fantastic guns.

Morning all...

Yeah, I hear ya Tim. I run into examples of that "me first" attitude on a daily basis. Really burns me up that there are so few people who try to be considerate of others anymore

I just realized I'm down to nine CZs. Anyone else feel the earth wobble on its axis?

Yes, but I have two CZs. The whole world has gone crazy.
