I've only seen them online.

Out of curiosity, what do your parents have against shopping online? It's statistically more likely that the kid at the mall will steal your credit card number than some hacker will get it online.

I've probably made a good 500+ financial transactions online (most of those were work-related purchases) and never had a problem. The only time I've experienced credit card fraud was when the kid at Sears wrote down my CC number and bought himself a set of tires.

Actually, you're right, the only time my parents have ever gotten their credit card stolen is when my dad payed for parking at the airport. Some guy bought 5,000 dollars of furniture in Maryland with our money. I don't know what it is, but they think the internet is the devil. I'll keep on trying to convince them.

Lil' pig fucker. If I ever see him I'll club him in teh gonads for yah. What a dickhead. I'm sorry, but that's pretty stupid and arrogant of someone to do that.

The problem I have with shopping online is shipping. I've had a lot of things get fucked up with that. Unfortunately, I told my parents that shipping (when something is purchased online) has problems, they didn't really understand what I meant. They interpreted it as "Online shopping IS BAD". Now they freak out about.. just what you said. It's.. really.. weird..

I can't believe the range this thing gets. What's the accuracy like? I might need to buy one of these. God knows I've got a soft spot for excessively large and powerful sidearms.

Between this and the Lanard line, it seems like we're in the middle of a spring/elastic mini-rennaisance. I never thought I'd see it happen.

Yeah, all it means is that there's three places along the plunger tube that the catch piece can lock into. Basically, you can cock it half-way. Or 3/4 of the way. Or all the way.

[the guy who unleashed hell]

does that mean that it goes farther when pulled all the way back then half way

[serpent sniper]

No, it shoots 10^99 times farther when cocked half way.....
