Here's a fun book for those who like Legos and Guns. The designs are decent for a couple of real shooting guns.
Ted, Mindstorms are quite a bit of fun, just make sure you get NQC (Not Quite C) for development instead of the designed-for-8-year-olds programming software that they give you.
Well, the latest edition of Lego Magazine arrived at my house yesterday, which to my son is akin to Naven Johnson's name being found in the telephone book (all you youngsters will just have to look that one up). The next two weeks are going to be interesting in Casa de la West.....
Dad, gun nut, motorhead, shaved-head biker with a foul mouth and a bad attitude. Living the dream in Free America after escaping the Volksrepublik of Massachusetts...
A. Somewhere between having too many to fit in one safe and Jay G. (smijer & buck)"the Virtuoso of Vitriol" (AD)"If ever there was a zombie apocalypse, I’d want Jay watching my back." (Liberty)"...totally unhinged (but in a fun way)." (Marko)"...an insane yet friendly hybrid of Dr. Evil and John Malkovich..." (Lissa)"You, my friend, have a twisted mind!" (Old NFO)"Jay is a man I trust to watch my back, but I won't trust with my daughter." (Sigboy)"...the kind of guy my mother warned me about." (Brigid)"...bouncing off the walls sounding like Gonzo on crystal meth." (MedicMatthew)"Yeah, if we ever meet, I'd like you to not be mad." (Salamander)"Jay is an absolutely wonderfully crazy gun nut. " (Top of the Chain)"Enough snide remarks to power a space shuttle" (Snarky)"American Rage Boy" (Kevin Baker)"the Northeast Gunblogger's Social Secretary" (Borepatch)"the Godfather of the Northeast Gun Blogs" (Weer'd beard)"I though you'd be angrier." (Randy)"Gun pimp" (Robb Allen)"Well, Jay's not like that; turns out he's just like he is on the internet, only more so. And life-size. And in 3D" (Tam)

Open Invitation for New Shooters
Just want to extend an open invitation to all potential new shooters in the Northern Virginia area. If you have never shot a firearm, or would like to get back into the shooting sports, or are an accomplished shooter who'd like to try something in my arsenal, give me a shout.
New shooters get range time, targets, gun use and ammo on me. I've even got extra eye and ear protection - all you have to do is show up.

Hey, at least it's going for something cool! Prepare to spend a good weekend building it!
$400????
Exsqueeze me!!!!
OF course, he'll want the $500 Millennium Falcon set next.
He can want all he wants... The only way I'd drop 500 beans on the Millenium Falcon would be if he could ride it to school...
If my son sees this, I'm f#$%ed. You've never heard "daddy, can I have...?" until you hear a verbal autistic kid start in.
Remember Rainman going off on the "gotta watch Wapner" riff? True. Over and over and over and over.....andwhatareyougonnado, get mad?
Oh, hell........if there is such a thing as luck, he'll never hear that this thing exists.
Yeah, my kid wants that too. I called his attention to the two most important numbers: the number of parts and the number of dollars.
I'm thinking about spring for Mindstorms. It's $400, too, but it's programmable Lego robots, which seems a pretty dang cool.

Holy crap that thing is awesome. And even has turbolaser turrets - that kind of counts as "gun fund"-worthy...
