Re: Corona Virus (2019-nCoV) from China: Its going to be bad.

How long has it been since the first cases in the US were diagnosed? Shouldn't they have recovered by now? Excellent question. It looks like the first case reported in the US was the Chicago case reported here, and referenced on WHO sitreps, on 24 Jan. I find no reports of "recovered" tho...

Another question..... what do you guys think of fescue as a filler for bald patches?
If the bald spots are due to shade, Mondo grass is shade tolerant. It can take forever and a day to spread but it is very low maintance once established.

Re: 30.06 Ruling Letters

OUCH!!! I am a little confused by the issue surrounding the typical "no guns" sign. The silhouette inside a red circle with a slash through the gun. Are they saying it is similar to or the same as a 30.06 and 30.07 even though it doesn't have the wording to accompany it? Yup. That is conf...

Re: Kimber customer service

$175 plus shipping is quite a chunk of change. If you have not changed the return spring lately, that is the first place I would go. Followed by extractor tuning if springs did not correct the problem. Followed by a Colt or Springfield hat.
