  1. or the OK sign in Asia!
  2. Hey, TN-popo. I'm not sure i understand how those BUIS work. Why not move the AP up a bit and lower 1/3 co-witness?
  3. Yeah, but anywhere I go in Europe I'm called a "Yank" especially in England. BTW - the "British accent" term is a throwback to the British Empire. AS if you didn't know. On the other hand if you Brits would just learn to speak normal English we wouldn't have a problem!
  4. Mostly agree except for the fact Islam has not changed it's MO since it's inception. I don't see it happening anytime soon either. Also the Catholic church WAS the main persecutor of the Christians that would later be defined under the broad and often misapplied label of the protestant movement.
  5. Rewriting history are we? Just because people have perverted some truths doesn't mean you throw the baby out with the bath water. As to your duality issue, its like saying what i do as an individual has no impact on my marriage. I can guarantee you it does. I find it interesting you are more concerned with criticizing christian short comings than the muslims who are actively attacking the world with terrorism.
  6. If it had been a Glock it would have torn through his leg. The superior design of the M&P mitigates user error.
  7. Get a Lage upper. Things are sweet! Magicarpetrides has one. Might want to check with him about what he thinks. MAX-11 Lage Mfg
  8. Usually keep the Gerber Covert FAST in the pocket and the CS Recon 1 in the truck.
  9. This whole thing is really annoying. If congress thinks it's in their best intrest to make a big dramtic criminal specticles out of "lying" over something that is inconsequential, they are bigger fools than i could have imagined .... And i have a big imagination. talk about the pot calling the kettle black!

    Is it just me?

    Now, why did you have to bring my mom into the discussion?
  11. This. Sounds like the gas port is set wrong. Have you tried adjusting it?
  12. 4140 is not SS. It is regular steel and is not rust resistant uncovered (finish). Looks like you got a good one going there.
  13. That would make sense, however I know my college was it's own "city" with it's own zip code and the roads that ran through them were considered school property. I'm thinking you would have to get clarification from UTPD to be sure.
  14. Viking Tactics have a good inexpensive light mount. Viking Tactics, Inc. or if you want really inexpensive - DealExtreme: $6.77 T2008 Aluminum Alloy Gun Barrel Laser/Flashlight Mount with Hex Wrench. I've got one of the DX and it serves it's purpose well.
  15. Just weighed my POF with scope and loaded PMag = 9.4 lbs. Not too bad in my opinion considering it has full free float quad rails. That would be 8.2 lbs empty.
  16. It's pretty expensive for what it is. I would probably go with a PWS for that price. However, I do like the compactness of the BC.

    Is 9mm just to small?

    I know this is kinda of a joke thread, but I like this info:
  18. What are you talking about? Black blends disappears in the shadows just like my Ninja suit! Nice look. Seems like everyone si getting creative with their camo these days. I'm diggin it!
  19. Yeah, I 'm glad you got rid of that Tungsten guy. He was always causing trouble. You're a much better administrator!
  20. JayC, you win arguments based on truth and logic, not semantics. However semantics keeps them swirling in the toilet bowl far too long. But since you have trouble with context and smilies, my comment you referenced was a tongue in cheek jab at HvyMtl.
  21. Yeah, I know you like to play devils advocate. BTW - I don't hate Muslims. I do a lot of work with them, but I do hate Islam. Not because I don't understand it, but quite the opposite. I hate it for the same reasons I hate socialism, communism, racism, Nazism, and bullys to name a few. It is a fool who continues to give acceptance and openness to the things that would destroy what is right and decent. I have the same tolerance for those who would enslave me as i do for the rapist who breaks into my daughters room. Tolerance is the tool of fools and slaves. I have studied and read their information and talked with countless Muslims from and in different parts of the world. From Africa, America, England, UAE, and even Brazil for example BTW- I have the same intolernace as a Pastor for those who would misuse and abuse the scritpures in the same way. I see no difference in application, only relevance and scope. Again this is not a freedom of religion issue. Anyone who thinks it is will be sorely mistaken. Islam has done a great job of putting on the sheep cloth to get the wolves in the pen.
  22. You seem to enjoy finding some crackpot that supports the majority and claiming that makes it all conspiracy and irrelevant irrational fear of something different. As far as some of the rest of you guys, I'm starting to think Kwik has been able to infiltrate the board with other user names. These slippery slope and letter of the law arguments only hold water in the same liberal activist courts you so correctly malign. INTENT of the law is more important than the letter of the law. Intent is what translates over time and makes laws applicable and relevant to today. If you guys applied you're same letter of the law arguements to 2A, you would be siding with all the liberal socialist who think only "militia members" can have weapons for national defense. Do you not see the inconsistency?
  23. Did you clean it really good? I ask because sometimes the packing grease that is used will have a rust color to it when it mixes with some cleaners. It may be where a little of that has collected there.

    These things are relative and subjective to the gun, the shooter, the grip, the ammo etc. When people say it is snappy it is in relation to the .45's described "push" and the 9mm's lighter recoil. In general most people find the .40 to have a snappier feel. It's the nature of the cartridge itself.
  25. Close to a stroke, but in high school me and my brother had a lawn buisness and we had a case of "severe heat exhaustion" one day. It was 110 deg in the shade one afternoon in Memphis ('94). Towards the end of the day I stopped sweating and was getting very chilled. Started shaking due to being cold. We had hosed ourselves down every chance we could get and drank Gatorade and water till we couldn't drink anymore. When we finally made it home late that afternoon we both slept for 42+hours straight. My mom said several nurses and doctors from our church had come by and said we were lucky we didn't have strokes or worse. Said our core temperatures were dangerously high and should be at the hospital but that it was probably safer if we stayed sleeping unless we had other stroke type symptoms. To this day my body temperature is abnormally low and I get hot and sweat if the temp gets above 70 deg. Doctors said it probably permanently damaged my inner thermometer. We do come by it honestly though. My dad had to take potassium pills anytime he worked outside and had to be careful to watch his temperature.
