  1. Not at all. Its an excellent movie
  2. Very doubtful that they will move away from the NATO standard on anything.
  3. Off the top of my head some of the top ones are Shooter, Act of Valor, Lone Survivor, and Lord of War.
  4. The Sigs are available with a DAK trigger and the HKs are available with a LEM trigger, if you must have a DAO trigger.
  5. Springfield xdm 45 Sig P220 or P227 Hk45 Hk usp All of those are viable choices and most are available in fullsized and compact versions
  6. The AP rounds that the military would have access to that we do not,they most certainly would penetrate armor, they were designed for it. The FN fiveseven had 100% one shot stops when hit either center mass or headshot from the Ft. Hood shooter. The limb shots had severe tissue damage. I believe if the army wants to think about the future of warfare, adopt the 5.7 or at least somebody do some extensive field testing. Otherwise, the army cant have everything they want. They want a deadlier caliber, retain high capacity, and have it fit everyone's hands from Tinkerbell to Sasquatch. You cant have it all. Assuming that we dont violate the no JHP rule, most logical option I see is the FNX-45, it wont fit the smaller hands, but neither will any double stack 45. It holds 15+1 of .45 is an accurate DA/SA pistol with a rail, currently available threaded barrel and the slide is milled for a red dot. .357sig isnt more powerful enough to warrant an entire platform change. Army is too pussy to adopt 10mm. .40SW would be ok but you would have a 9mm sized gun with reduced capacity to hold the 40 and possibly have longterm reliability issues. What else is there caliber wise? I dont think they are gonna go back to revolvers.
  7. NATO-spec 9mm ammo is hotter than anything commercially available already. I do agree we should be using JHP ammo, war should be efficient not humane. IEDs arent humane in the least. Alot of the enemy is wearing body armor now. They need to retrain to aim for the head or issue ammo that will pierce the armor commonly encountered. If 9mm wont do it, switch to something that will. I vote for 5.7, its a smaller version of the 5.56 they are using, so it makes sense.
  8. Or just go 5.7x28mmFNH
  9. .300blk is gonna be close to .30/30Win. Certainly less powerful than .308win
  10. As said before, markers dont work on the old bills, they look weird after looking at the new bills all the tune but they are still good.
  11. Why is the bullet for a .38 special a .357 diameter? Or a .44mag bullet .429diameter? The world may never know. But yes a .223rem takes a .224 diameter bullet
  12. Highly doubtful, IMO No orange tip
  13. No its on a smart tv. Or you could get a box to hook up to any tv.
  14. I stream Netflix and you need a hi speed internet connection. Mine is either 8 or 9 bucks amonth for streaming only service
  15. While i do agree, the appropriate punishment, IMHO, would be to scar their face in a similar matter and in a way it could not be fixed, so that they understand the true pain associated with an injury like that.
  16. I agree too. I am only 26 so vulgarity and sexuality based comedy is mostly all my generation sees. Still though, I enjoy watching some old Red Skelton, Andy Griffith, 3 Stooges, etc. Most new movies put out now are not funny at all IMO. It seems they are so stupid its funny and I cant stand that type of comedy.
  17. If you are local to Chattanooga area, Anthony's Armory in Red Bank usually has some.
  18. Was there a prequel thread to this to explain somethings?
  19. S&W and Sig dont count as true 1911s as they have external extractors
  20. Dan wesson Then Springfield
  21. Yeah but half the people that buy those rifles dont know how to shoot worth a dang without a scope.
  22. nightrunner

    .22 1911

    Look at the Rock Island its all steel, where most are alloy or aluminum frame.
  23. Im not completely convinced someone pro-gun would do something this stupid. Between this and leaving a real gun in the toy section at target, wild things happening in the gun world right now
  24. Purely for fun? Pistol caliber carbine in whatever caliber and magazine setup you have guns in.
