      Crooks are like sharks, ultimately they're looking to exert as little energy and take as little risk as possible. That's why I think racking is a good deterrent. They'll almost always opt for the easier meat.

      Think it, be it.

        I'm more concerned about the nutcases that blitz attack. Its becoming endemic in the DC metro area

        The jackasses that broke into my house earlier this year were not at all concerned that I was home. They already commited to a house that wasn't an "easy kill". And we were obviously home, my car was in the driveway

        "Almost always" isn't good enough for me

        I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

          Wellllll, if it don't, there's a shell chambered 😉

          You have a rottie too, that should deter at least some criminals

                The sad thing is that the rottie was originally picked up as a deterrent…but he's become so important to us...he's going to be behind all of us! He's NEVER going to get hurt, or put in danger

                That being said, I don't think any of us can stop him. His protection instinct is really strong and he's incredibly strong for a dog that's less than 9 months old

                      Speaking of, I'm down about 6 pounds since I got serious about the diet.  Doing nothing differently except resisting the urge for cheat meals and no beer ever.

                        Great job Mcclain. Shit, I feel like the "subway guy" for the forum. Just threw up in my mouth. So disgusted.

                                        hello my Iron Heart brethren. Me and some buddies have been making leather goods for a few years now and just got together to start a little something up.  Im not trying to get sales, im genuinely interested in the opinions of the forum members here, so I would love to hear some feedback on what could improve, what sucks, what you like, etc thru PM. Ive been part of this forum for a long time now and have grown to genuinely appreciate and value the opinions of those who post on here. Dont worry about hurting my feelings be honest!  Thanks so much guys. (sorry for cross posting if you read this twice)

                                          hello,

                                          I intend to order a IH in the evening, I already have two beatle buster
                                          IHXB01XOD in a size 31 length 31.5
                                          and IHXB01 length in size 31 31.5
                                          though they be relaxed to the size it fits me
                                          otherwise I also wears a size 31 in S710 SAMURAI (slightly tighter at the size 2 BB)
                                          ps: I am 76 cm waist

                                          I hesitate between four models
                                          Here they are:
                                          -IHxB01sbgII in size 30 (76.2 cm) length 31
                                          -IHxB01xRAW in size 30 (77.5 cm) length 32
                                          IH-666SB in size 29 (76.2) 31 length
                                          IH-666S in size 29 (78.7) 32 length

                                          for information I just sell a IH-555-02 size 29 (78.7 cm) length 31

                                          Unfortunately it was impossible for me to get into it, too tight on the thighs and knees (I should order the size 30)

                                          which do you recommend?

                                            If you want a slimmer version than the Busters you have, try the 666Sin size 30. But if your inseam is 31.5", I'd have them hemmed to 33" pre-soak… You can always have it hemmed again after some wear and washed.
