But "you" don't have to raise your hand

1. You already determined the machine was a death trap and a dangerous piece of junk. Are you now re-evaluating your previous appraisal of the machine?

2. If it works does the price go up?

3. Do you even understand the basic issue here, or are you just jerking us around?

Snowedman,
You are a lame excuse for a person. You post lies and unknowledgeable opinions on every subject, fail to honor your word and threaten legal action when called on it. What a piece of work!
Read through this thread, you have posters from every political and social perspective saying the same thing and agreeing that you are doing the wrong thing. How many other threads can boast such a singular viewpoint?

Don't be a girly-man! Do it! Do it now! (spoken with an Arnold accent)

To whit: RPKESQ and I actually agree on something.

Yep...




You have to admit sonwman has brought about one of the rare threads where almost all poster are in agreement.

I was avoiding this thread because I thought what could be more boring than a discourse on loading ammo... boy was I wrong, what a hoot!

Scott,

Loading ammo can be fun but you do not want it to be exciting. I was trying to end the exciting part of Snow's life but guess he likes to live on the edge, among other things.

Got another PM from him yesterday saying that he will sell the press to me when he is finished. Just wish I knew when "finished" was going to be! I thought it was 6 weeks but then I have been wrong before!

Gawd, have I learned this the hard way. You don't want to be drinking too much Maker's Mark when messing with custom loads for which you can find no powder measure info in the books, then mislabel it and get surprised at the range. Ask me how I know.

[vash]

this is a favorite thread of mine. love it. it has it all! guns, grit, attititude..great stuff.

i once forgot powder in a round. the primer pushed the bullet into the barrel. it was a close call.

Cliff, now it has everything!

I think that, when this press is finally liberated from its dungeon, it should be bronzed or get a commemorative plaque or something.

Just curious, does Joeaksa work for Dillon? THey hail from the same location.

Joe A would love to work for Dillon. No, he is self employed at the moment.

Mike Dillon owns airplanes, helos and loads of machine guns. What more could any red blooded American guy want?

I live in Phoenix and Dillon is based in Scottsdale, 15 miles East of where I live.

Joe

PS I would not go digging too much futher in this direction. The masses are already perturbed and trying to associate me with Dillion is not a very good move. Just about everyone on the forum knows I am a pilot and fly for the most part overseas. Dillon has NO overseas operations. Next try?

[snowman]

So do fly airplanes?

PS I don't give a sht about the masses, thats what the tactical shotguns with buck shot are for.

Another winner! Now Jack is obliquely threatening to shoot people.

Only for the last 37 years. Someday I may grow up and get a real job.

I could tell by your posts. One of my good friends is named Bass. Air Cal, American, chief pilot in LA, OC retired.

WTF are you doing with reloading machines?

[jeffgrant]

WTF are you doing with the crack pipe?

Also, I wonder what the legal department of Dillon would think of your little public outbursts and "experiments".

But I'm sure your team of crack lawyers has already ensured you're well protected from all that...

[Joeaksa]

Reloading shells. Do not like to keep switching things back and forth between rifle and pistol and will keep one for each.

[stomachmonkey]

Could all of this be some weird Psych experiment?

Would explain a lot.
