Not such a big deal with .45 because it is a low pressure round even in +p. However fully suported chambers become very important in .40, .357, and 9mm +p+. 40 S&W particularly. Those seem to be the ones with kabooms when they happen.

Wife of Oil Company Executive Injured by Bomb Delivered by Mail
Smith replied to a topic in General Chat
I think he was being sarcastic due to the fact that the Obama admin keeps telling us that conservative TP are the real threat. -
Wife of Oil Company Executive Injured by Bomb Delivered by Mail

Just surprised this is the first one I've heard of. The way they are villianized I won't be surprised to hear of more. Now where are those who defended the home protest not so long ago? -
Either the SR9 or XD, but not the P250. The P250 is rather bulky and the trigger, while smooth, is very long. I like the compactness, egos, and capacity of the SR9. It will also be much more enjoyable to shoot at the range, which means more practice time. It is very thin for carry and the triggers are much improved over the first release. The XDsc is a proven gun with a lot of aftermarket support (triggers, sights, holsters, etc) and is rock solid. It would be my first choice of the 3 a strictly EDC, although if you plan to shoot it a lot I prefer the benefits of a full-size like the SR9.

Kinda like the whole Polar bear issue. Never mind there are more now than ever before, we're just going to leave them on the endangered species list. Canada's growing polar bear population 'becoming a problem,' locals say

Factually wrong, but it is the propaganda put out by the Sea Shepard organization. . Correct. It is not illegal. Of all people 2a and hunters should understand quota hunts, preservation and the misleading propaganda of leftist environmental wackos.

They're eco-terrorist, liars, and pirates. The same bunch that spike trees in the northwest, beat park rangers, and bomb logging roads. Funny how some of you guys who are always whining about how you don't want others beliefs forced on anyone else are all the sudden fine with it as long as it's the Japanese. Those guys are idiots and I have no pity for whatever befalls them. I'm just surprised the Japanese have been so restrained.

KCI 100 Rnd Drums vs Beta C 100 rnd drums
Smith replied to ~48_South~'s topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
Don't know about their 100 rnd drum but their Glock and AR mags I've tried have been awesome. Keep in mind KCI is a government producer so their stuff is made for their military and their military is in an active war zone . Good stuff. -
I really lkke those. After being spoiled with me STG556 I want me an RFB. All other long guns just feel awkwardly balanced now. The few folks around here really complaiined about the trigger but everywhere else I've read about them people really compliment it. Go figure.

I'm rather surprised at the sentences. Seems rather lenient to me. As to the tattoo's I'm pretty sure he'll get all kinds of alteration in prison.

Used to love sports and even more so college sports, but the circus has fully turned into the freak show. Stuff like this and the Lebron thing is just beyond the pail. They couldn't hold down a real job if their lives depended on it and that's a proven fact. Yes the whole system is corrupt from top to bottom and the fans, boosters, schools, players - all of them are to blame. Lebron talking about sacrifice of only taking 85 million. CJ whining about only 2 million after one sophomore year. UT players committing assault, armed robberies, ect. talking about how hard life is for them... I had to work two jobs, support a wife and keep my grades up (without an athletic "tutor" BTW) to make it through college. These guys make me sic! Rant off.

Philip said in another thread he has a G19 for $400 OTD! Heck of a deal.

You'd actually have 3 guns in one - 9mm, .357 SIG, and .40

Could this be true the NRA plans to endorse Reid In Nevada
Smith replied to JG55's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
just realized last months American Rifleman had a big article about the Nevada range. Looks like they were getting out ahead of the story. -
It is Federal law that background checks/records ect have to be destroyed within 72 hours (since 1998). It was a big deal when Ashcroft discovered that Janet Reno had been keeping records for months and even years citing LE issues in violation of federal law. Even the NRA filed suites against Reno in 2000 over the issue. NRA v. Reno, 99-5270, Second Amendment, Gun Control and Dave Kopel & Glenn Reynolds on guns & terrorism on National Review Online So question one is - yes question two is - ? i guess they are using the honor system.

It's just a matter of technique. As you know the AK rocks into place and it should only take a little bump on the bottom of the mag to get it to fall. It is definitely different than an AR mag change in nearly every aspect. I actually like the AK method a little better for a variety of reasons. One if an AR mag doesn't drop free due to dirt or some other factor it is more work than an AK to get back into action. Second, the AK method is fool proof and works every time. Third, AR mags are "fragile". Dumping them on the ground is liable to break something important. With the AK mag you just pick it up and go, It'll work. The only real drawback, in ideal settings, is a little more gun movement with the AK than AR. In combat I'd say the advantage goes to the AK. For range or light shooting the AR is easier. Bottom line is it is just a different technique. If you were an AR trained guy, it'll take a little more to get used to. BTW - I think the AK mag release gizmos slow down proper mag change procedure. Hit the lever, bump, rock, and shoot.

G19's are perhaps the most sought after of the Glock line. Not many shops need to try very hard to sell them if they can get them. That being said I would give Guns and Leather a try if you need it right now. I bet they will give you a fair price. Other than that you can usually find one, if you are patient, in the WTS adds on the various forums from $425-$500.

Guns in Employer Parking Lots Bill HB 3141
Smith replied to waynesan's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Yeah, but there have been numerous rulings and AG opinions that ones vehicle is the owners personal property and thus can not be infringed upon simply due to location. For instance just because a vehicle is on a public road does not mean that it can be entered and searched by the police without relatively the same guidelines as your home. -
Kinda like this topic, it's been a long slow spiral. I remember when Memphis had potential. Taking it back will be hard.

Well, the AR platform is perfectly suited for little girls! (says the AK guy!)

Nah, it's just unsafe to leave the house!

So you don't know anything except everyone is wrong unless someone is right, but that is unknowable so it is logically wrong thus you are right. Interesting. Seriously though I enjoy these threads with a smile on my face. I don't get these viewpoints in church very often. I can't argue someone to truth only lay it out for you to play it out. Ya'll enjoy! Jaime, as much as you don't like preaching you must really hate yourself! bwahahahahahahahaha!

Islam is exactly assimilating into anyone's culture. Trying to compare apples and oranges saying, "Well they both are round" is naive at best. Again history and current events substantiate my stance. Haha, coming from the guys who boohoo other religions for lack of fact and reality (in their opinion). BTW - Jaime I agree with your observation that a lot of people need others validation to feel better about what they believe. It shouldn't work that way. Reason is many don't really know what they believe or why they believe it. My experience is the more they get to base belief the simpler it gets and the culture, traditionalism, and craziness wears off. Kind like Fox Hole conversions. Too many people have complicated something very simple and made it something that it was never intended to be, just like your government analogy BTW. That is the very issue that Jesus had with the religious leaders of his day. I think once you get past your personal issues with who or whatever did you so wrong with religion, you'll see things differently. Then again maybe not.
