Just jumping in here to say that I do think the current background checks are a joke when it comes to stopping people that aren't felons but have mental health problems from acquiring guns...it basically asks YES or NO if you have ever had mental health issues or been diagnosed...wow that's a hard one to bypass..checking NO lol. However the way privacy laws currently are...way over the top when it comes to mental health hospitalizations I don't see how they can fix it without changing those first. It needs to be fixed...most of these mass shooters have issues...the one in Dayton had a kill and rape list in highschool! Honestly as much as it pains a wheeler dealer like me I do think the private person sales should be amended such as you have to have some kind of card or check or a valid carry permit to legally buy or sell from another person....any ol felon can just buy from someone on here or meet online and lie to the seller or buyer...way too easy to work around. Do I think anything will actually get done barring something insane like that recent BS bumpstock ban...no I don't....we will all argue back and forth and 20 more mass shooting from now...we will still be arguing.

I meant that I hate them because when a company goes out of business its hard to get mags...not that the proprietary mags put them out of business.

appears these went the way of the dodo bird...another reason I hate proprietary mags

Russia's new Designated Marksman Rifle (DMR)
Magiccarpetrides replied to TGO David's topic in Long Guns
I dig it...definitely ripped off some American designs but almost everyone these days does...hard to reinvent the wheel after all. -
That .375 is a man's gun for sure! Glad you fired it...even if it was just to put it back in the safe lol.

I had a Bond Arms Derringer....shot good, like Rob Said....410 pdx loads felt like catching a punch...I didn't find the trigger all that bad. Well built and beautiful gun but more of a novelty than anything else. Heavier than most any compact firearms and your only getting 2 shots...doesn't really make sense for anything but fun range toy or night stand gun and even then do you really only want 2 shots? I think these were more popular before Taurus came out with their judge line and 410 revolvers weren't so common.

if ya wanna keep it cheap get the UTG riser on amazon for approx. $8...works perfect....TRS25 is my go to budget optic...truth be known im sure it would be fine for home intruder work too.
-
I know a lot of the early ones had issues...would definitely contact SIG...I love mine but that's what I would do if it started having any kind of FTF.....mine was a December gun so its supposedly GTG.

when was yours manufactured

I think the problem is how he baited his followers into harassing these people...plus he slandered them by calling them liars publicly...I did the same to an Ebay seller from Texas some 12 years ago when he stole my deposit and lied about the condition of a car...guess who lost in court (this guy).

I feel so awful for all the families of the Newtown massacre having to not only grieve their children but be bullied by idiots like Alex Jones and those soft minded enough to believe him and those other conspiracy nuts. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/newtown-parents-score-a-win-in-growing-fight-against-hoaxers/ar-AAD2VKF?ocid=spartanntp I'm glad he's finally having to pay for the damage and suffering he has caused.

USC (United Sporting Companies) goes belly up.
Magiccarpetrides replied to xtriggerman's topic in General Chat
Prices are about to drop further I would assume...I feel bad for dealers already loaded up on inventory...."happy days are here again for the bargain hunters" but please...buy now or at least don't gripe the next time (likely years from now) prices shoot through the roof. You wanna load up these are the times to do it. -
Haha I still have my 10" AOW I got from Hero Gear back in the day that ETS (anyone remember that crook) built.

When I was at Maryville High School our SRO was a bada$$ ...he not only busted our Principal and Office Manager for embezzling funds he also went on to become an Air Marshall. I hope Scot Petersons guilt and shame causes him to eat a bullet...that's what that coward deserves.

Anything Dan Wesson is awesome...best 1911 guns for the money imho
-
While I would never go to the extremes this guy did...the fact he only flattened the buildings and didn't kill or injure the people responsible for his plight makes him a folk hero...albeit a crazy one...in my mind. You really can never know what someone will do when you push them to their limit...best not too.

Sig ups the ammo count on P365 again....15rds
Magiccarpetrides replied to Magiccarpetrides's topic in Handguns
I don't really understand the point of the XL....I mean the only reason I bought the P365 is the combination of capacity and miniscule size...the XL to me is just any other gun. -

Magiccarpetrides replied to Magiccarpetrides's topic in Handguns
These mags just came out so I don't think we will see them below $49 until later. -
Only an 1" difference and now 15rds of 9mm....the P365 is gonna be hard to topple. https://www.sigsauer.com/store/p365-micro-compact-15rd-9mm-magazine.html?utm_source=Sig+Emails&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=P365+15+Rd+Mag&utm_content=P365+15+Rd+Mag

Holy moses...that's one heavy cannon! Needs a bipod!

OK...who left their gun in the car in Millington?
Magiccarpetrides replied to monkeylizard's topic in General Chat
Leaving a firearm unsecured in a vehicle is just stupid regardless...I have a friend of mine that has had 3 guns stolen out of his truck because he is too lazy to remove them or lock it up...he got one back 2 years later but the other 2 were stolen before he even got to shoot them....luckily for him he makes plenty of money but that doesn't excuse his stupidity or lack of learning. -
