A Cajun-Asian View

I now shot around 2200 rounds through the Beretta 92FS, and it has rarely missed a beat1. That and I found a great little gun store in town with some very knowledgeable and friendly staff. The downside is that they're only open 9 AM to 6 PM Monday to Friday, which means I'll either have to go during lunch or immediately after work to catch them when they're open.

1. 1. The only failure to feed happened when I attempted to load a magazine a friend had loaded; she somehow got 16 rounds into the 15-round magazine. Popping out the extra round fixed that issue, and I haven't had any other problems. Then again, I'm cleaning the gun after every time I go out to the range with it.

No equipment failure, luckily, but I did notice that the skate holder on the left boot of my Bauer Supreme 5000 ice skates were cracked when I inspected them before I was going to the ice rink with my girlfriend last weekend.

So, what am I going to do? Replace the skates? Heck no! The now discontinued Bauer Supreme 5000 ice skates has a well-earned reputation for taking a while to break in, and I remember those days. But these are my first ice hockey skates. I've ice skated recreationally in them, refereed ice hockey games in them, and punished them playing ice hockey in them for the past 10 years. And after that rocky break in time, these skates are incredibly comfortable for me. And after 10 years, that hasn't changed one bit!
