Ordered my son a Walther P22 from Cabelas... For 0$..... Ok, not quite true... Points accumulated over a years worth of purchases paid for the gun. Still have a bit left over to buy mags with.

Got my wife's new air rifle sighted in. Last night she shot a rat in the face, offhand, at 20 yards. He won't try that shit again.

Replaced the ACS-L stock on my AR-10 with a PRS Gen3. The adjustable comb and LOP is awesome - I can't wait to mount the scope and get this thing dialed in! Now, to find a good bipod that won't break the bank.

Today I bought my first gun that has TWO manual safeties. They need to both be on "fire" or the gun won't work. It's an IAC Model 99 1887 Coach Gun, made in China. Check this out: There's a cross-bolt safety just forward of the hammers, and this disables the firing pins. Then there's a more typical safety on the right of the photo, on top of the stock, that disables the triggers. A little overboard, if you ask me. At least they are full-manual operation, and neither of them automatically engage like some shotgun safeties do.

A little overboard, if you ask me. At least they are full-manual operation, and neither of them automatically engage like some shotgun safeties do. I puzzled about this after reading your post... Is it possible that the model was designed using two existing models, and they simply used up thousands of spare units in inventory? I've never seen this either. Honestly, I kind of like it. Looks to be almost nuclear grade.
