      What type of flashlight do you carry? Do you even carry one?

      I keep one of those $4 Cree AA led flashlights from Amazon in my computer bag and keep an old Surefire 6P LED on top of the safe.

      "Kill People and Break Things"

      This is where I heard it, too. Maybe even longer ago than a decade, like in the early 90's.

      What was your first rifle?

      Chinese SKS purchsed in 1992 for about $80. I wish I still had it.

      any build a fal ?

      I looked into it several years ago. I bought an old G-1 kit back when they were $100 each and bought a bunch of FAL magazines for $4-7 each. I ended up getting into AR's instead. I may still build one once my kids are out of the house. Unfortunately, the golden days of the cheap FAL are behind...

      How come no northern Indiana people here?

      I'm about five miles from the Michigan line. Can't get much more "Northern Indiana" than that.

      Just finished a 2 1/2 mile run. 19 degrees up here. No, it doesn't bother me that we're not spending Christmas in Florida this year.

      My best gun buy so far. Unbelievable!! Whats your best?

      A like-new Norinco 1911 for $200 back in 1993. I think they were going for about $300 new back then. I still have it. I paid about $200 for a pristine 1972 Marlin 336C in 30-30.
