Wow, I didn't know there was any handgun round they wouldn't stop. Kevlar is tough stuff, no doubt.

No, Gene. Not going to try to outrun the long arm of the law at my age. Like we used to say when we were teenagers .............. you may outrun the law car, but you can't outrun his radio. I just enjoy the fast boat crowd. The guy who, along with his partner, imported the big boat set a world record about 11-12 years ago for a single outboard multi-seat boat. He ran 151 in a 20' STV here on the Savannah River. My son and I enjoy hanging out on the sandbars with them and stretching one out on the river every now and then.

I'd give my left cajone to get to ride in that big 34' cockpit boat, after it's got it's graphics and is rigged this year. The goal is to have it ready to run at a big boat race at Lake of the Ozarks, in August, to try and break the record.

I sent my youngest son to college in Savannah..after being assured that it was a sober city with no drinking and carousing going on and an absolutely serious focus on academics and intellectual exercises. I didn't hear anything about fast boats.

Stan,

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/CZ_52

Scroll through the 7.62X25 info, until you get to the list of body armor it defeats.

It is an angry little round, and, the most accurate handgun I own.


Best,
Ted

Read some interesting stuff there, thanks. For example, that silk is so tough.

"In 1881, Tombstone physician George E. Goodfellow noticed that a faro dealer Charlie Storms who was shot twice by Luke Short had one bullet stopped by a silk handkerchief in his breast pocket that prevented that bullet from penetrating."

They don't give the pistol's trigger pull any praise, Ted. It said most run 8-10 lbs. Yikes.

Did you work yours over?

Sometimes its just music:

HI Lonny!

Sunday, about 70 out, and there is just something about talking a slim Colombian chick onto the back of a liter sport bike to go for a ride and smell the flowers.

Best,
Ted
