A great place to jack a car

Those self-serve car washes are great places for jacking cars.
Especially when people are vacuuming their cars, looking down
at the floor mats, completely unaware of their surroundings,
and with the noise of the vaccum making it impossible to hear
anything. I’ve seen women in nice SUVs at such car washes in bad
areas of Indy, only their ass sticking out the door as they were
vacuuming their mats. They probably think that during the day
they’re safe. It’s so stupid to tempt fate like that.

    And all this time I thought a good place to jack a car was the frame. Go
    figure.

    In Indy, the potential jacker may have to consider that the lady may have a ,40
    auto on her someplace, and that she knows how to use it and is willing to use
    it.

    Indiana is one of the sensible states that allows conceal carry. You would
    be surprised how well that deters jackers. (however given your name of
    223rem, i am sure you probably understand it very well)

    there are handguns with the .223 caliber… they are goofy looking , but
    they exist.

    A lot of light hunting bolt-action rifles shoot
    223 remington.

    You mean they shoot 223 remington ammo? That’s not possible.

    Yes, there’s the OA series made by Olympic Arms. They’re huge, like Desert
    Eagle size. See: http://www.olyarms.com/?page=m1_oa_models

    Bushmaster markets a few things like the above with the Professional
    Ordnance acquisition from a few years back. AKA the Carbon 15 pistols. But
    they are all 20" and larger. Kind of a grey area there IMHO.

    Be careful. My car has "chassis rails" that run down the length of the
    car. But most of the length of them is just flimsy metal (it’s only the
    bits forward of about the driver’s door hinge that are strong metal and
    help to support the engine and trans), I really have no idea why the
    car designer put them there. Anyway, I tried to jack my car up on
    these rails one time to change a wheel, thinking they were real
    chassis rails, and they just crumpled. I then tried using the sills,
    which also buckled. Finally I decided to put the jack under the
    suspension arm (which I still do, unless I’m planning to remove
    part of the suspension!).

    Anyhow, one time recently I went to my local inspection station
    (NZ requires six-monthly inspections), and there was a new guy
    on, and he failed it due to buckled chassis rails — a $200 job for
    a panelbeater to fix. Gah…

    Also the Carbon-15 handgun.
    Looks like an AR-15 with no buttstock,and a 9" barrel.
