Teacupping...

Had a non-shooter ask me why I hated "24" so much, and I pointed out that he always "teacups" his gun, which drives me insane. Had to explain what that meant to him.
Tonight, I got in a rather whimsical mood with my new SIG 320 (yes, it's awesome, thank you for asking

) and made my best "Jack Bauer" face

I hate to break it to you but, that's a coffee mug.
You can caption that photo "Mugging".
+10 internets for the great "mug" you're making.
Excellent Jack Bauer.
Tea cup.

I had a teacup, the SIG grip wouldn't fit into it, so I had to improvise

I tried to watch the first season of 24 but after the daughter got kidnapped for the third time in a 24 hour period I gave up. I guess I was laughing so hard at the story line I must have missed the teacupping.

I'll be darned. I didn't know they made tactical cups for picatinny rails. Can you get one with a laser/flashlight combo or a doughnut holder?

I think it only comes in a donut holder variation.

You will know if it's a fine tea cup if it does not break under heavy recoil.

I haven't seen any of "24," but unfortunately my wife decided that we had to start watching "The Following." We missed the fist season, but she got a good deal on a Blu-ray. Wow! Who ever writes this has probably never been in a school yard fight. The stupid tactical decisions are distracting enough that I eventually stopped flinching at the trigger discipline and barrel sweeps.

You need to watch a couple of episodes of Sons Of Guns!
You'l be flinching again in no time!

I can't believe that for $189 the carry handle isn't included.

I barely got past the first ridiculous episode. Tried a couple more to give it a chance, but geez, it just required too much suspension of disbelief.

I enjoyed the first season but watched it with the same attitude as I watched The A Team as a kid.
