Does this mean I have to change to this one (note Modified Weaver grip - I'm a marksman, not a cop)?
Also considered a joke pic someone snapped of me playing Oobe-la-dee on a student accordian... took me about 15 mins to plunk it out... far too long for my friends' ears.

I think you should reserve that one for situational use -- although it would be a pain to have to change just to post a reply every so often.
Very startling.

bren, looks like the size of your avatar is just fine..
BTW, what kind of handgun is that. i got a ruger P94DC, .45 calibur, and a smith&wesson air-weight snub .38. my wife and i are both qualified and registered hand gun carriers, and members of the NRA.

Actually, BigJohn... since I'm a Canadian and live in the city, I don't own a gun.
That's a replica .38 "digitally" bored out to look like a .50 cal AE (ie: Photoshopped), though I have fired a 22 long rifle, a 308 and a 12ga. at the farm with surprising accuracy (though my body - at 6' 3", 155lbs is not built to take repeated recoil from Imperial Magnum IV 12ga. shells). The farm is out sidvicious' way, actually, I should meet him for coffee sometime.
For the most part, it's airguns and paintball markers for me (I was a licensed airsmith working at a paintball field for a while in the early 90s)

but Bren, how will you ever defend yourself from all the evil robbers/murderers in the world if you don't own a gun?
True, there are very few people in Manitoba that own guns for a purpose other than hunting. Most farms own an old .22 for shooting nuisance birds and that's about it. That's why I found parts of Bowling for Columbine so funny. When they were in Canada (even though it was said to be set up) meeting people who don't lock their doors and having a hard time finding anyone who owns a firearm is so accurate.
Oh and Bren, you're welcome anytime! The coffee is always on @ work (visiting is pretty much my whole job).

I have printed 20 pictures of Curtis's port avatar and hung them around the perimeter of the property. Thus far, no break-ins, vampires or locusts. I may be on to something.

i thought bowling for columbine was a fantastic movie/documentary.. the NRA hates michael moore with a passion..
my main reason for being a member of the NRA, is simply to aid in the protection of the 2nd amendment. i dont believe everything the NRA believes.. and i dont support everything the NRA does. but i DO feel, that as an american, i should have the right to bear arms.. i should have the ability to protect my family and property. i wish that our society was not in the state it is in, and i wish that this didnt have to be an issue.. but the honest truth is, that it is an issue, and i would be doing myself an injustice by puting my head in a hole in the ground and ignoring it.
and, in case no one knows, we have some of the best hunting here in west texas. i am going spring turkey hunting this weekend. whitetail, turkey, dove, quail, delicious
