Stacking swivel, FQ The forward sling swivel on the M-1 Garand had an opening that allowed 3 rifles to be locked together to create the tripod base of a :"Stand of arms"
Note, to grab some one by the stacking swivel is to grab them by the throat.
I know. I had an active duty Marine seargent major (who was going to UT part time for his BS) threaten to do that to one my TAs who not only did a piss poor job of grading his paper, but was disrespectful in his comments. Given that I couldn't stand the little non-English speaking turd myself, I merely informed him that if he killed my TA he would be grading blue books until I got a replacement. ;)

Always wondered about that phrase,....

Next week, we'll cover Boxing The Compass, Cannon Cocker, and Drawing a Dead Horse.... ::)

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

Hell, even a squid knows that one.  We had to carry that thing in boot, every day and never got to shoot one!  It goes back a bit farther than the Garand though....probably 1870's...

From FQ you want accuracy?

Path
The Quote, and I remember it well as you would if you were trapped in a 10'x12' room with a highly (and justfiably, pissed Marine seargent major, think R. lee Ermy light) was " I will grab him by the stack and swivel".  My interpretation was one hand on the throat (stack) and a sharp twist to the right, followed by an unpleasent cracking sound and one less English challenged Korean TA in the world {HooAhh}). Perhaps it was "grab him by the stacking swivel", but the point was the same and accurately reported.
FQ13 who has resolved to take fewer cheap shots this year, can you hear me Path?

 ???   The nice thing about concealed carry is that it is concealed
I used to be open minded but my brain kept falling out.

 Boxing the compass is making 4 90 degree turns on equal length legs to see if you wind up where you started, if you don't you have problems.
Cannon cocker or gun bunny is an artilleryman  ;D  A Bat 3/197 FA NHARNG  ;D
Got me on drawing a dead horse.

Actually the NICEST thing about concealed carry is that it puts the gun in places where it does not interfere with daily activities or get banged up , for example high on your belt or in your arm pit, tight to the body as opposed to lower down on the hip.

Drawing a Dead Horse
From Terms Customs and Tradtions of the Naval Service:

Drawing a Dead Horse.  A "dead horse" is advance payment of wages.  In the British Merchant Service, approximately a months pay was advanced when a sailor shipped.  A ceremony was held when the crew "stopped working for nothing," usually after about five weeks at sea.  The men made a horse out of canvas stuffed with waste material or out of a cask.  Permission was requested to light it and hoist it out to the end of a boom or yard.  Cheers went up as it marked the time the crew started to accumulate wages "on the books."

I just don't like people I don't know, knowing that I'm armed! If I know you and trust you, I'm okay with that but the joe blow public I'm not.

I agree. If I had the option of open carry, I would still choose concealed carry. I believe it does give an advantage.

 To contradict my earlier post, access is easier with open carry, FQ, should be proud of me, because I don't give a crap if others know I'm armed I can argue this one either way.
