  1. I think the moral of this story is if you want to do business with a co-worker, do it off site.   Sorry you had to lose your job over it.

  3. I've apparently been stuck under a rock and just saw this thread. Still room?? If so, I'd be in for one, preferably #23. I don't think I saw that number claimed yet. Never had a Protech before, but I heard a lot of good things.

  5. Even if things were to go south here in the way that y'all think it will, I couldn't be bothered to leave because I don't think I would notice any functional difference. Most of what people talk about the way the country "used to be "is really nothing more than a rose colored glasses of myth and memory. Things didn't used to be any freer during the lifetime of any of y'all living, you just believed the lie more back then.

  6. I lower the seat when I'm done...one less argument to have with the misses...but after 20 years of complaining, she still won't put the fresh roll back on the holder instead of balancing it on the empty one...life's not fair, LOL.     BTW...my best bathroom prank ever was unrolling a few feet of paper and drawing a spider on a sheet and rolling it back up. She's deathly afraid of spiders and I never heard the end of that one.

  8. Some of us try. The laws are still there, but we are pretty well left alone. We raise our own food, build our own homes, farm our own land, make our own tools etc. Legally we aren't anymore free than any of the other subjects, but it sure helps to be able to say we could live without the goverment or any outside help. Which brings up another point. I, and I'm sure others here, have family roots running into this land more than a century old. My family first built on the land we own in the early 1860's. My entire family has been born and raised there and most have died there. I'd rather die and be buried in the hills where I was raised than be the first generation of my family to turn tail and run.

  10. Seriously, Phil Valentine has the right idea on the illegal immigration issue in my opinion. You don't deport anyone. You simply "demagnetize" the United States. This means you make penalties so tough for doing business with illegals that no one will hire them or trade with them, and they'll deport themselves.

  11. The problem with regular glasses and most sunglasses is that there is no protection from the side.  Wrap-arounds are best and some sunglasses do this very well with good quality lens.  For the best protection, don't compromise.

  12. https://www.trijicon.com/na_en/products/product1.php?id=MRO   Street price is going to be around 5 bills with mount...   5-year battery life at medium setting, NV compatible, fully waterproof, 2 MOA dot, made in the USA.   If this has typical Trijicon quality, the T1 and pricey new T2 Micro is in serious trouble.

  16. No one at work knows how serious I am on guns, they may suspect, they have not proof, but I have never acquired a gun on company property.  Now I do answer some gun questions from time to time, so that is the only hint anyone may know.  I will say Thank you Tennessee for the parking lot bill though!

  17. The question I would have is whether management knew of any of the other sales as a part of their investigation where the person was not fired today as a result. Consistency matters in Human Resources - especially when it comes to terminations. If it turns out they were selective, I might be inclined to discuss it with counsel.

  22. My department tested the 320 several months ago during new duty weapon testing. Through normal range shooting we caused some type of failure leading to the 320 being dropped from testing and being sent back to SIG. YMMV. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  23. Willis, I second FTE's setup. We have almost identical carries with Taran +2 and +1 grips and Trijicon HDs. I'm 6'1 with decent sized hands and I carry the +2 in the gun and it fits my hand perfectly. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

  24. Welcome to TGO. I recently realized that permit had expired, and I was unintentionally illegally carrying. Either way, went to the DMV the next morning, which was July 28. I had my replacement in the mail by August 7. I was impressed.

  32.     I finally made it over to Prone Shooter. Very nice folks as Major mentioned. :up:   I picked up 5 pounds of powder, 3 different types, that I had been looking for...for some time now actually. Very good prices. They have a decent selection of powders, good selection of primers, and a decent selection of ammo.   I even got to handle a Glock 43. I still haven't fired one yet...but all in time.   I think it's great having good folks like this running such a nice place so close at hand....but you gotta do some recon to find them the first time LOL.

  35. I found some numbers.   In 2014 there were 623 people killed at the hands of approximately 900,000 police officers in the US. It does not say whether these shoots were good or bad. That works out to .00069 deaths per officer.   There is an estimated 11.1 million people who carry a firearm for self defense in the US. That is ~11,100,000. And those 11.1 million people killed, on average, 76 people a year. That works out to .00000685 deaths per person carrying a firearm for self defense.    You are 100x more likely to be killed by a LE officer than by someone who carries a firearm for self defense. Even if these number are off by 50% you are more likely to be wrongfully killed by a LE officer than a person carrying a gun for self defense. So those "experts" are full of it.   But if you don't compare the numbers to each other and actually look at the percentages you realize that the actual chance of being killed by a person carrying a gun for self defense is nearly a statistical improbability. You are probably more likely to be killed by fireworks, drowning, car accident, stroke or heart disease than by LE or a person carrying a gun for self defense.   references: http://crimepreventionresearchcenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/Concealed-Carry-Permit-Holders-Across-the-United-States.pdf http://www.nleomf.org/facts/enforcement/ http://www.gunfacts.info/gun-control-myths/concealed-carry/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_killings_by_law_enforcement_officers_in_the_United_States,_2014   But even if my numbers are off by 50% your are still more likely to die at the hands of LE than at the hand of a person who carries a firearm for self defense.
