Pearce Grip PG-FML PGFML - For GLOCK Compact & Full Size Grip Enhancer - NEW
11 Sep, 2017
Just the thing for an older Glock
I have a 2nd Generation Glock 23 (.40 S&W). This was before the finger grooves and there is a half cicle radius in the front of the grip. That was left over from the original military Glocks which did not include 'drop free' magazines. The relief radius was there to allow for a better grip on the magazine to pull it free. Well, that relief is quite annoying especially on the shorter grips of the compact Glocks which include the G23. The same goes for the 9mm G19. This plug pretty well fills the gap. Furthermore, it, being plastic, can be ground down to suit an individual's feel. I find my pinky finger comes to rest right on the plug. I used a drum sander to put a bit of radius around the plug and took it down to where my finger pressure on it brings the pistol into line of sight without conscious effort. One thing to whatch out for. It seems there are two different types of this item. This one, "FML" is what you want. In my foto bellow showing the 2 mags, the larger, on the left in both views, is what you want. The smaller one I picked up by accident. It is "Nfml." I don't know what it goes to exactly but, it didn't work for this and that's for sure! If you cling to an older Glock like I do, this is just the thing to make it more comfortable and come to point more readily.

Theory of Spencerian Penmanship Spencerian Penmanship Booklet: P. R. Spencer...
11 Sep, 2017
Just the thing!
If you enjoy handwriting and want to jazz yours up, or maybe are a renactor of the Civil War era and want some written articles for your personal impression, this is just what you need. Most of the similar fonts available on the computer are not exactly correct. THIS is how they were taught to write back in those days and this carried over somewhat even into the twentieth century. I know that because I remember an uncle of mine who was educated in the 1920s wrote with a truncated form of writing strongly resembling Spencerian. Anyway, if you want to learn it, this is the book for it.

Destination Moon different from average run of 50s sci-
Destination Moon is not your average, cheesy, 50s sci-fi. This film is different, a cut above the norm and was so intended from its very beginning. Created and written by the justly famous Robert Heinlein, he had a definate vision in mind with this film. Unfortunately, he knew nothing about film making or film makers. In his "Grumbles from the Grave," he recalls his efforts in this with disgust and was entirely frustrated with the whole thing long before it was finished. But he didn't understand the limitations or reality of the film making industry. Happily, with that knowledge in hindsight the film turned out far better than he knew. What he had in mind from the beginning was more akin to a documentary. No screaming women or drooling rubber suited monsters. Just hard science as far as it was known or could be reasonably projected within the foreseeable future. His vision, like other notable scientists and authors of the day was that with WWII past and scientific breakthroughs happening almost daily it seemed, Man(the species) would soon, indeed must, reach out of Earth's atmosphere to explore the far reaches of our solar system. With a vision of the power of the atom turned for constructive purpose rather than destructive, It was believed that that would happen within their generation. Maybe that's why, in the film, he took space exploration out of the hands of government and put it into those of business. In today's economic environment, many would question the wisdom of putting anything into the hands of industrialists. But the industrialists of that generation were cut from different cloth. Oh yes there was greed aplenty and desire for profit, how else to pay for R&D? But that generation also took the Wright Bro.s flimsy machine and within 50 years spanned oceans with ever bigger, faster and more powerful aircraft. Sound provided a difficult barrier, but it was crossed, granted at hest of the government now taking a firm hand in this exploration because there was a new, powerful enemy. This enemy isn't named in the film but openly referred to in the opening sequence with a case of apparent sabotage. Here too is the "Red Menace." The film moves from there through a means whereby the ship for the moon, a plainly obvious first step into space, could be developed, problems of R&D and financing to be overcome. Then politics, as another problem, a drag upon progress and another reference to the un-named enemy who would impede our progress. The film carries us through the launch, the great G-forces that would be encountered. It also takes us from the popular sled launching system to a direct rocketing up through the atmosphere followed by adjustment to weightlessness. It also inflicts upon us a change in characters in the form of a griping, reluctant, classical New York character familiar to most watchers from the many WWII films then being produced. Curiously, the moon landing was obscured and hinged on luck and pilot skill just as was Apollo 11's actual landing. There are scientific details aplenty and a carefully portrayed moonscape as accurate as could be imagined based on earth telescope observation. One admitted error was that of the moons surface depiction as being like cracked dry mud rather than it's actual dusty, rock strewn appearance. To close, there is drama of a fuel shortage and weight excess to be overcome, perhaps by leaving one man behind. It was such dramatizing that Heinlein wanted none of.
