  1. as someone who just went through the process, prepare for a long and thorough process. you will need to document EVERYTHING for the last seven years. apply as soon as possible and make all the appoinments. be honest. i broke my ankle in a motorycle wreck a week before i was to start, june 2 and now have to start over. you will apply, then you will recieve a date for the civil service exam and obstacle course. if you pass you will get a conditional offer. you will then interview with background officers, then take 3 different phyc test a physical and a voice stress analysis test. all of this spread out over 4-7 months. if you get through all these you will be reviwed by a hiring panel then they will call you with a formal offer or send you letter thanking you for applying, but no dice. be patient an wait.
  2. I partially agree with Mars. It was modified and he knew about it. At best he was careless at worst he was what was charged. Is it worth the sentence? Maybe maybe not, but he created the debacle and now will pay for the mess.

    Saiga 12!!!!

    Yeah, i think that is one that you will regret!
  4. It's just plain weird. Kinda like there is something there that nobody wants to say. No conspiracies, just something off. Then again with the logic this agency uses maybe that is the genius of crazy.
  5. Why would you revive this? Did you read the whole argument?
  6. i'm still waiting for the RFB!
  7. Welcome and anyone with any sense doesn't actually live in Memphis! Know the area well, went to SBEC and lived off of State Line Rd. there in Olive Branch.
  8. None. a one time test doesn't mean anything anyway and if that is the case then it will be short order for mandatory continuing education for permit holders. I don't think it should be any different than for a drivers license, since some view it as a privilege. No matter how much "training" is involved you can't teach character or responsibility and mandating training wouldn't do anything in those regards anyway.
  9. Yeah, whats a few extra $20,000 or so....! They sure are nice.
  10. According to this, you are anticipating recoil. http://www.reloadbench.com/pdf/files/TargetRightHanded.pdf
  11. Just wanted to give a big thumbs up for Guns & Leather and their new gunsmith shop. Went to get my new TFO's installed on the XD and got immediate service, while I waited and good conversation to boot. Great addition to an already great store!

    AR lower

    Rabbi has a few. I had gotten an Essential Arms lower that was a great value lower from him for my first build. Guns and Leather has several manufactures lowers available. I got one of the Sabre Defense lowers from them and it is very nice! Sorry, here are the links to their sites: http://eastsidegunshop.com/ http://www.gunsandleather.com/

    I didn't mention it, but I'm glad you got the Tromix trigger. I had to file done mine in order to get it to work. Not hard just frustrating. Also with the DIY trigger guard, you will have to make a channel on the bottom of the buttstock receiver block to allow it go over the back screw head. I learned that the hard way. Have fun!

    Definitely check out Tromix DIY trigger guard kit. $45, but very easy and you don't have to worry about cutting the grip nut hole and it has the safety stop built in. It also looks very good! You can get it from http://www.mississippiautoarms.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=25_37&products_id=233
  15. The definition of a dysfunctional relationship.They ammo and platform don't complement each other and in fact will magnify their deficiencies. The x39 ammo that is available is mostly dirty stuff that will bring out the worst in the AR platform and you won't gain much accuracy benefit, if any. Get a good AK instead if you want to shoot on a budget.
  16. With feral hogs it wouldn't be wasting meat anymore than prairie dogs. Course with hogs there is actually good meat.

    That is definitely top notch, I just don't have the dime to drop on all that goodness. The Halo rails look awesome. How are the sights on it? What brake is that?
  18. The problem with a x39 AR is the gas system. Most of the ammo you are going to find is going to be dirtier than the commercial .223, unless you got lots of cash! That is one of the major drawbacks to the AR platform. I would stick with the AK. The "loss" in accuracy of the x39 has more to do with the ammo than anything else. There is very little x39 ammo designed for match type use, unlike the .223. +1 molonlabetn.
  19. I think that is a great idea. Besides it would be great to be able to link to it when all the wannabe AGs start giving their interpretations of the law.
  20. while I agree, in the historical context (which they are using) militia's didn't have artillery, grenadiers, calvary, etc. So I doubt that would survive a ruling.
  21. Except when Reno was keeping the records. When ashcroft tookk over he found out and destroyed the stored records. so yes and no. Legal? I don't think she really cared about that. http://www.nrawinningteam.com/nrasuit.html http://www.iowasportsmen.com/News%20items/ashcroft_blocks_fbi_access_to_gu.htm
  22. It didn't cycle the slide. The casing wasn't bulged or deformed either. It had a lot of black residue on the case however.
  23. Last I looked there were only 95 votes, but it was overwhelming. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2008/06/26/national/w071830D39.DTL
