    Originally Posted by old1 I have been changing oil on my own and customers cars for 60 years now, and have yet to use a torque wrench on a drain plug. Or a lug nut for that matter.

    9 mm or .22? I'm torn.

    9 mm or .22? I'm torn.

    Originally Posted by Eosyn Hi guys, I can only afford 1 right now, Check out the Glock 42 if this will be the only gun in the house. Female family members will not like the recoil of a 9mm and thus will not be able to shoot as accurately The 42 is an easy shooting pistol and the .380...
