If you find or know of one in NYC, please post it. I'll be there for a week in July, and I'm paranoid about running out of juice.

I think there may be something upstate, if I am not mistaking. Though, I don't know which.

After all, when seconds count, the cops are just minutes away. :)

Taurus .357 magnum, 7-shot, revolver.
Hornady 38 caliber, jacketed hollow points

Not a big fan of Hornady after some 10% gel tests I've used. They over penetrate and under expand, which is dangerous for innocent bystanders. You don't want that bullet exiting the bg!!

I carry Winchester Ranger T-Series (9mm+P+ or .45ACP +P) or Federal HST (9mm +P+ or .45ACP +P) in my mags + 1 in the chamber. Always. If I'm carrying my revolver (S&W M&P 360 Chief Special) I use Remmington Golden Sabre .357Mag. Or if I'm carrying my FN FiveSeven I use SS195 (FN's hollow point 5.7mm, which tumble and yaw in an extreme fashion when it hist flesh).

Sorry for going off topic.

@El_R....

You are now officially off the hook for causing me to not get an order into Ahlusion ( A+ ) yesterday... I got my order in this morning even when it was already after 10am ( CDT ) before I got time to place the order due to an emergency call for work ( computer related )....

I ordered up a 30ml of Sahara, 10ml of JG Blend ( JG ) and a 15ml of Blue Grass Burley ( BGB ).... for the sample I chose some Gold Rising ( GR ). Can't wait for them to get shipped and in my door so I can pre-sample them before setting them aside to steep. Speaking of steeping... The Smooth Criminal and Desperado I got on my last order is now just over 2 weeks old so it's time to check them out. I'd hoped to get to them this last weekend but with all of the weather ( tornado's and such ) we've had... I didn't get time so perhaps I can get to them this weekend after I get the chores done....


Ok... OT but important info to know for those that have computers etc... In the past week, I've had three clients call me up after they had called whom they thought were tech support for the products they were having issues with. All three had searched on the internet for the tech support numbers and were directed to pages that looked convincing. They were each told, after these so called "techs" had connected to their computers that they were either extremely infected or had a lot of errors that needed specialized work in order to correct the problems.... In each case, it was a scam... IF you need tech support for something on your computer DO NOT go to a search engine to find out what the tech support contact info for a particular company is... go directly to the companies website and find out that info from there website instead. These scammer's are pretty convincing when you are talking to them but in each case ( thankfully ) something didn't seem right to my clients so they all called me before they proceeded.


Yep, I'm pretty familiar with this scam. Haven't had it happen to me, but I've read plenty about it. I've been getting Phishing emails lately saying "your paypal payment went though" hoping to get you to click on their fake PP link in the email to snag your log in info. Sneaky f'ers.

When going to paypal, never go via link!!! Always manually type it in your URL/address bar.

Quick drip testing my Ahl order..

Sahara Blend: Know how a Camel is different than a Marlboro? This has that difference. I think Camels may also be a blend of Virginia and Turkish tobaccos? Very complex and layered, with conflicting sensations like dry and creamy. If I didn't have so many juices, I would start vaping this now.

Dulce Cubanito: Tastes like The Plume Room's Cuban Cigar. I had thought that one contained extracted tobacco but also got it's Cuban cigar flavor from a synthetic. The flavor I thought was from the synthetic is the same I'm getting from Dulce. Maybe this contains arti-bacco? Maybe TPR didn't use an arti-bacco like I thought? Maybe TPR did but the synthetic Cuban flavor is accurate to the bottom leaf extract used here? No idea. This seems like a better juice, though I hope it's time in the steep box brings change, hopefully more pure tobacco notes and less "Cuban" flavor.

Rdsok, I am so relieved you were able to get your Sahara and JGBlend order in . . . JGB is already a 60ml-per-order staple for me, and I suspect Sahara will be as well! (I ordered 60mls of it this week, and my sample is still just a light pink!)

Yeah, put DC away. Though, for some reason with those two, I can't seem to leave 'em alone. I can leave those be for a minute since I have gotten enough juices that have just come out of the steeping cabinet, e.g., 30 mL Gold Rising (profiled), steeped 3.5 months; 30 mL Caramel Pear Black Tea (profiled), steeped 6 months; and 60 ML Boba Tea Plain (unprofiled), steeped 23 hours, LOL!

DC and Sahara will soon come in their own 60 mL bottles to hibernate in.

JG Blend (dark roast): I could vape this bottle up fresh. I won't, but I could. This is the coffee-bacco that Sunday Morning and Serendipity only hinted at for me. Absolutely delicious, after it's steeped about a month it'll get vaped up quick.

Yeah, that juice completely surprised me. Y'all need to stop tempting me since I am on a big(ger) bottle buying frenzy.

MM is also Mad Murdock, though rarely discussed in this thread. So two MMs, one I have a deep respect for, the other adds food coloring to otherwise fine juices :p

True, but like you said, MM in context here is obviously Mann. In this thread, I use MM for mah boi! Outside of this thread, MM is Mad Murdock. Luckily, it seems everyone in this thread is capable of clear communication and know how to take words/abbreviations in context and figure it out easily.

I<3 this group! Everyone seems intelligent and aren't afraid to speak up if more detail is needed. :)

Can you tell I've had a few pints of cider? Did all that make sense?

So many juices to try and so many juices I love and want a big bottle of! Hard to juggle, but it's a problem I'm glad to have! Could be the opposite.

Today I'm thinking next order will have to be big bottles of Patriot and Vita Bella, and I also what to try a couple of Nick's lab-baccos and a couple lab-baccos from the eVo line he's carrying.

But I also still need to try epipemods, MountainOakVapors arti-baccos, several NETs from HHV and random juices from W2V. Also want to try NETs and desserts from VelvetVloud, non-contest NETs from QuickNic, NETs from Mom&Pop, MVJs newer bacco lines, and a whole oceanful of vapes from Ahlusion. I also need a big bottle of Smooth Criminal, SGP, Vurley, and now probably JG Blend and Sahara. Big bottle of Smooth & Mild from TPR. NLV; BWB; Fuzion; Vapetrik; Indigo...BOOOOOOOOM

Damn, just popped a fuse.

Beeliquid does in fact have a B&M in Taos, NM (Mat just messaged me).

Nice! I've been meaning to go visit an old friend that now lives in AZ. I wonder if Taos is near I-10. If so when I co I'll stop, for sure.

I'm going to pick up a Browning Hi-Power 9mm tomorrow in Dallas. I plan on stoping by Wild Valley E-Cigs in Ft. Worth, near Dallas afterwards. I need to call and see if they'll be open when I plan on being there. If hey aren't I'll do it another day.

They have a nice lounge and vape bar set up for tasting. The atmosphere is sweet! Here's their FB page: https://www.facebook.com/wildvalleyecigco?ref=ts&fref=ts

I wish someone in Houston would do this. It's a great city for it.

I'm so glad you're digging SB! It's one hell of a good liquid. Wlad is a freaking mad scientist! It's an incredible vape. You described the conflicting sensations perfectly! It gets more complex and more mouth feel as it ages.

Don't wait four weeks, it only really needs two for the coffee to fully bloom . . .

I also have one of these: An FN PS-90 and a tax stamp for the short barrel (legal with no tax stamp is 16", mine is 8). This isn't mine as I prefer not to post my NFA items online. But mine looks exactly like this but mine's OD Green with a red dot site.

FNP90_zps8efe512e.jpg


If I'm wearing a suit jacket I can sling it under my arm and no-one would be the wiser. 50 round magazine. I have 4. And the pistol to go with the sub gun: FiveSeveN. The P-90 is what the SS use. They each have one under their jacket during presidential public appearance type things.

Sorry for the OT.

I just went ahead and got 2 60ml SB and a 1 30ml DC. If I don't like the DC I may PIF it. I know I'll have no problem vaping up 120ml of SB. :laugh: It's shaping up to be my all time favorite.

I believed ya too! Still surpassed my expectaions.

I would have no problem starting it now, but I have about 40 in my current "vaping now" rotation which I'd like to put a dent in first. Most of them are also really good too.

The B&M vaping landscape here is about as desolate as Fargo. Also have the same dumba$$ smoking ban within 20 feet of any public building (including bars). The guys that are looking to set up a B&M here were looking in an old strip mall that I have done some remodeling on. Decided on another location across the street from a high school! I'm losing hope in their business acumen but truly hope they put together a decent shop. Closest shop now is almost two hours.

Oooh, PIF DC to me if you don't like it, please. LOL. Even still, it'll take time to really be able to tell.
