Awesome pic from the range

Must have shot 100 rounds out of that thing, but for some reason the camera caught this one!

I am framing that along with a sign that reads "Welcome to my home, the lock on the door was for your protection, not mine."

And hanging it outside

I have worn that coat for ten years now.

It is great when I go trick or treating with the kids, and people go "look its that guy from the matrix..."

Or when mall security follows me around

nice coat you got there, not a fan of pistol grip shotguns though, I would take a stock any day over that.

Luckily for you this isn't a fashion forum.


Cool blast pic, you are definitely the one.

I hope the smiley at the end of the above statement is a sure sign you're just kidding about doing that.

To do so, just may not be in your favor legally if (God forbid) something bad was to go down at your house.

The 'Matrix' coat...

One of my favorite scenes from the first Matrix film was near the end when they go to the government building to break out their leader who was captured. Neo goes through the metal detector at the guard station. The metal detector goes off and the guard asks Neo to open his coat...it's amazing that the metal detector didn't have a catastrophic, overload melt down.

There were similar coats in 'Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man' used with good effect by the bad guys.

Man, that looks like you are going for low center. That would hurt.

I have a kicklite 6 position should be here today, I do not like the grip either, but got an awesome deal on it, brand new mossberg 500 persuader with the teeth on the end... Will post a pic once it is on.

But let me tell you, the movies where the guy shoots the pistol grip one hand, yeah, I call BS on that one with anything over blanks and even then maybe...

With 3" mag 00, it is a wrist breaker.

And yeah shortwave, the sign would be a hanging from a jury this day in time I agree. Also an indication of what was inside to steal if they watched me leave

Beverly Hills Cop II, Judge Reinhold.....

The pic is neat. The guy looks a lot like Judge Reinhold's Billy character in the shoot-out climax of Beverly Hills Cop II(1987).
www.imfdb.org

Long coats & trench coats were popular with men in the mid 1980s. I think it was Georgio Armani's wardrobe influence from the hit cop drama; The Untouchables. EVERY cool guy wore a long coat. I had one too. It was my late unkle's. I didn't carry a Serbu Shorty or Micro-Uzi with it. Lol.

I have worn one since then at least...


It is actually cool, I get asked all the time where I got it.
Sometimes what I have under it...

It was a cold drizzly day, perfect for such attire!

(And I had a warm gun to keep me from freezing)

...the duster.

It's like a jacket. Only longer, thicker, and far more badass.
