Alabama's Industrial Development Folks Have Been Doing An Excellent Job Lately
Alabama Governor Kay Ivey announced Tuesday that Kimber Mfg. Co. will be investing 38 million dollars into the local economy of Troy, Alabama and which will eventually create 366 jobs. Click HERE for the entire story.
This announcement came on the heels of even bigger news the same day when Toyota/Mazda announced they will build a 1.6 billion dollar facility in Huntsville, Alabama which will eventually employ up to 4,000 workers and produce over 300,000 automobiles per year.

Oprah Winfrey: A Masculine Version Of Barrack Hussein Obama
Obamprah says a certain amount of white people will have to die. Can anyone imagine the media circus that would ensue if someone on the right who was remotely linked to "running for president" had made such a statement? Is it a coincidence that Oprah's statement is practically identical to Obama's friend Billy Ayers (60's Weather Underground activist linked to at least two bombings) who said at least 25 million white people would have to die before their "revoloution" was complete? I think not.

To Moon Or Not To Moon? That Is The Question.
I recently came across this Colt M1917 revolver .45 DA (dual action). According to the serial number, it was manufactured in 1920. I had a couple of friends who advised me that buying "moon clips" for shooting the pistol was the route to go. So, I ordered some steel ''full moon clips" from a seller on Ebay. I loaded one and handily dropped six rounds at once into the cylinder and thought this is going to be dandy. Instead, I found the cylinder "binding" up somewhat and had to help it along to rotate into battery. After shooting, I found the empty cartridges were a bugger to remove from the moon clips. A little more reading convinced me that later models had been headspaced to allow firing of the .45 acp without the clips. I tried it and it worked. Since the cartridge is rimless, I had to pull each spent casing with my fingernail and that was not too bad. Some fellow wrote on a forum I vistied that he had rather load his gun with individual cartridges and poke the empties out with a wooden dowel rather that "rassle" bullets into and out of the "moons" after firing. I am beginning to think that man is correct. At this point I have not tried any of the "half-moon" three shot clips. It is a good shooting gun to be nigh on one hundred years old. If anyone has any experience, antidotes, insight, etc. regarding these heavy but well built firearms, I'd be glad to hear it.
