I'm sure it could be used as a heavy wire gauge ferrule crimper in a pinch. Not MIL Spec of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimjimbo Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Nope, I just don't have that particular tool in my tool box. Ya never know when you might need a specialty tool like that.If you live in Florida, you could claim it's a Stand Your Ground weapon, and maybe elsewhere too! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaddeus Smith Posted April 7, 2017 Author Share Posted April 7, 2017 when my girls get to dating age I'll just have it laying on the table when suitors come around. Less aggressive, but far more intimidating than a shotgun.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less aggressive, but far more intimidating than a shotgun.. I came back from the range a few weeks ago and as I typically do I carried as much at one time as I could back into the house to save trips. My 12 Y.O. had a neighborhood 'suitor' over visiting when I walked in with several firearms (MP-4, AR-15, shot gun, handguns) strapped on and a couple of ammo boxes in hand. That poor kid quickly excused himself, departed and last weekend when he saw me at my daughter's track meet made haste to find another place to be. Out of the blue at dinner tonight she mentioned how scared he was of me. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are many more to name but was afraid to leave someone out who deserves it. You should go, we have a shortage of smart@sses, OK no shortage but one more wouldn't hurt.

I’d have friends over and he’d come home with his jacket slung over his shoulder and a pistol in a shoulder holster. Made my friends nervous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't mean it quite like that Well I don't want to lie to you, I would hate to build it up to something it's not, you somewhat know all the people going so who would I be kidding. It would be nice to see you, you could tell me I'm a jackass in person, I'v heard it all before, my wife would agree with you i'm sure. I will be the tall guy with a nice perfectly shaved head mixing martinis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
