Las Fallas, Valencia - 2010

This is interesting:

demosthien posted a photo:



Cerveceria Freiduria (lit. Brewery Chip Shop)... The name says it all really!! Once I'd worked out what the name meant there was a definite %26ampquot;SCORE!!!%26ampquot; *Punch the air in excitement* moment. :-)

This set of signs broadcast the identity of a bar (which served food, like chips) located on the lovely Malvarrosa beach. It's a demomnstration of something I found amusing about the Spanish language. Almost every business that sold a service was identified by taking the word the for the product or service; in this case Cerveza meaning %26ampquot;Beer%26ampquot; and adding the suffix %26ampquot;eria%26ampquot;. So a bar is a Cerveceria.

I don't know if it is %26ampquot;official%26ampquot; proper Spanish or just a convenience by the business owners. It made for very easy identification of the businesses for non (or poor) Spanish speaking tourists, like me.Las Fallas, Valencia - 2010

Silencerco: %26ampquot;Shut That Gun Up!%26ampquot; Pt 2 by Nutnfancy

I like this one:
PART 2 WITH TECHNICAL DETAILS AND FIRING TESTS: With the introduction of their pistol suppressors, the rimfire %26ampquot;Sparrow%26ampquot; and the centerfire %26ampquot;Osprey%26ampquot; lines, Silencerco has jumped into the suppressor market like a fat lady in a swimming pool; they made a huge splash that no one can ignore. They are a new company but are growing fast. Maybe you can credit the innovative suppressor technology they use. Their Sparrow model features real user-level serviceability without the need to send it back to the factory (that may save you some coin in the long run). Also its external sleeve is the only ATF registered part, making service and parts replacement, if necessary, much easier. As shown in the vid, takedown is indeed fast and easy requiring no tools and this to me is a huge plus (note the innovative sleeve systems that prevents silencer %26ampquot;lockup%26ampquot;). It weighs a respectable 4.7 oz at just over six inches long. Its 40db suppression levels are impressive both dry and wet, and we prove in the video. It looks to be a durable all-around rimfire option for both pistol and rimfire rifle. The Osprey breaks traditional silencer format by an innovative slab sided design which creates more volume and blends into the lines of many handguns well. Some stock sight sets will be usable above the Osprey but I think you would be best served by installing a higher set (like Meprolight adjustables recommended for this). The Osprey is more caliber specific, currently made for 9mm, .40, and .45 calibers %26amplt;b%26ampgt;...%26amplt;/b%26ampgt;Silencerco: %26ampquot;Shut That Gun Up!%26ampquot; Pt 2 by Nutnfancy
