A wonderful PR move.

Due to a silly OCD thing, I've always tried ridiculously hard to keep my carry guns looking brand new. I really went to extreme measures, with the exception of my LCP. While I couldn't bring myself to treat it like a red-headed stepchild (nothing against all you Gingers), I was able to bring myself to treat it like a blonde-haired, blue-eyed stepchild. Pampered, but not overly. Anyway, someone recently created a thread (maybe just mentioned in a thread), talking about how a carry weapon was a tool, not a safe queen. I attempted to subdue my OCD long enough to give this some thought. While it hasn't been easy, I have made some progress. With some trepidation, I recently began carrying my Smith & Wesson M&P 40 Pro Series on a regular basis. I was determined to treat it like a tool, attempting to be a little less cautious about bumping it into something, or otherwise marring the finish. Today, I was successful!!! It is officially scratched. I'll admit, I have since attempted to see if I could rub it out (come on...baby steps), but it is there to stay.

Obviously you've been watching too much news, too.

If I fail a drug test, I am fired immediately. There is no option for rehab.

Legalizing marijuana has nothing to do with drug testing. If your employer requires you to be drug tested, legalized marijuana is not an end-around this requirement. 

Yes, they have a great selection of beers. I also prefer spices and seasonings over most other retailers.

I didn't realize the OP resides in Indiana. I assumed he was inquiring about the laws in Tennessee. I am not familiar enough with the laws in Indiana, so I am not sure if that is a requirement or not. 

Not true.

I do feel better knowing the problem is just a figment of my imagination. I will definitely stop watching the news. 

It amazes me that any gun store, especially one with that type of inventory, would have such lousy security. 

Yes. Very.

I love stories like this. You're a good man (albeit a rather hairy man), so I'm sure you'll find a way to put it to good use.

If you'll need 5.56 ammo for your build, here is a decent deal. 35 cents/round.   http://buygunsandammo.com/product/5-56-62gr-fmj-ss109-penetrator-sealed-brass-case/?added-to-cart=18

Oops!

 

The brightness on mine changes with single clicks. I've never tried holding down the button, but I suspect that will also work.

With the ever-expanding and restrictive gun control measures happening all over the country, when is enough going to be enough? Will it ever?   As I read the seemingly endless stories about magazine restrictions, specific firearm bans, mandatory firearm registration, I can't help but wonder how and why The People are allowing this to happen. Is everyone else sitting here, thinking something like this cannot and will not happen to them? Thinking the restrictions won't become any more severe?   The top 10 most restrictive states have a combined population of roughly 112,000,000 (one-hundred-twelve-million). Many of these states also have the most money and voting power. With such a large percentage of the population living in some of the most restrictive states like New York, New Jersey, Illinois, California and the like, how do the rest expect to have a chance at stopping any further restrictions, much less rolling back any of the already implemented restrictions?    It seems the sharks are circling the boat, picking us off, one by one. One state here, one state there. The submission and complacency is a bit mind-boggling to me. Maybe it's just me.

As far as I know, there isn't a date on the PMAGs. They do periodically change the design/generation, so that would give at least some indication as to when they were made. 

OH MAN! He will continue to be in our thoughts.

They don't get much better than ol' Gordon. 

No sweat. It's all good.  :cheers: 

Again, you're assuming every situation is going to allow for a proper full grip on the weapon. If it means life or death, I don't care if the only part of my body touching the gun is my trigger finger, I'm pulling the trigger.
