  1. Analyze all you want and it still comes down to a lot of AD's with Glocks and not so with XD's.
  2. I have a 7.62x39 and 12g Saiga converted out. Really easy to do and excellent gun all round. Get one ......or many. You can get them in 5.56, 7.62, 7.62x39, .410, 20g, and 12g.
  3. I had a FEG Hi-Power clone done in Gun-Kote and it was really nice. It is teflon impregnated which self lubricates. Doesn't mean you don't have to lube it, just don't have to use as much or worry about it as much. Personally, if I were to do it again I would have it Melonited. It just wasn't available then. You could also go with something like Black-T, but you'll have to wait and spend.
  4. I think they call it a Gun Show and we have them all the time!
  5. Here ya go! A FN Hi-Power in .40 S&W. What happened to your 1911 when it grew up.

    Rifle for protection

    That's because they work and are cost effective when hiding in a jungle or cave.

    Traitor!

    It seemed to work all right for Rambo! Anyone know where I can get some explosive tipped arrows?
  8. As I've been going through the hiring process (BTW I start in June!) several have told me that that is exactly what is happening. It's not "racial" profiling, but profiling none the less. I understand the reasoning and can't argue that it can be affective, but it can also have a negative affect on public relations, IMO. If you are driving a nice vehicle in East Nashville, for example, you probably will be stopped. Be kind to the officers, they are more than likely just doing as directed.

    If the moron remembers, there was a time without any handguns or guns at all. It was called the early Dark Ages. Now correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't it one of the bloodiest times in history? Not to mention all the killing that went on since the beginning of time before that. I kinda liked Braveheart. Maybe we should remove all guns so i could carry a huge broadsword on my back or maybe a battle axe! Oh, yeah!
  10. Just a FYI, our current Chief of Police thinks the best way to stop crime is by statistics. In other words the more routine stops you make the more legitimate criminals you will accidentally find due to warrants, car searches, ect. Not a bash and please don't go that direction, just to let you know why a Camero gets pulled over at night, ect.
  11. It has the same safety as a revolver. Neither has gone off on their own without a deliberate trigger pull, that I am aware of.
  12. Yes, but in the catalog from XS, they are listed and if you call you can get the Big Dots for the same price.
  13. I'd rather get them from XS, than buy anything from Yeager. http://www.xssights.com/store/specialty.html

    Absolutely great. However, and I hope to be proven wrong, but i doubt it will ever make a recruiting film.......it's too truthful and direct.
  15. You know, the sad thing is that it is a whole lot better than it has been in a loooooong time. When we moved there 24 yrs ago, it was awful - especially downtown. Now it is at least tolerable and there is no longer a guarantee you car will get vandalized while you're on Beale St. Of course they are raping and pillaging the suburbs to finance it......
  16. I understand the sarcasm, but Rabbi is right. The right exist without necessity. Even if there were zero crime, there is no argument against 2A. To even allow the premise of a right validated only in need is errant to say the least. One way to win debates with anti's is to not let them dictate the premise.
  17. Seems like all you're categories, it is mainly the Elite winning. I say stay with that one. Plus, while the Elite may bring more money, the CW is in a better market price wise. It will be easier to sell. Not sure if that matters, though.
  18. Same bullet but different brass. 6.8 was designed for the AR platform. And no they can't be fired from the same gun. Currently, outside of AR makers, Ruger makes a 6.8 Ranch Rifle and you can get barrels chambered in 6.8 but will cost you.
  19. You can get a Savage for about half that.

    Polymer STI?

    Here is some info from what I can find. Any first hand experience? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandpower_K100 http://www.ipsc.org.au/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=3704&sid=2292781f17df791f6ef640c80c9f640a http://michaelbane.blogspot.com/2008/01/service-pistol-sweepstakes-gets.html

    Polymer STI?

    Just curious if anyone has seen or handled one of the STI GP6. Price is decent if it is as good as STI's 1911's. What do you guys think? Here is the link to info on them: http://www.stiguns.com/guns/GP6/GP6.html and here's a pic:
  22. Don't know about ET, but my brother hunts them that way in Northern MS. They use dogs and a 3 or 4 man team.
  23. Of you're choices - XD by far. If you want another option, try a FN Hi-Power .40 S&W. Accuracy, price, what a 1911 wants to be! CDNN has them pretty cheap. I've got one and it is an unbelievably good shooting gun. Here's a picture of mine.
  24. In bolt action, Savage .270. You get an excellent out of the box trigger, superb accuracy (OTB by the way), you can get them with a scope, and they don't cost much at all. In semi, any AR chambering, but I'd go with 5.56 or if you want something more - 6.8 SPC or 6.5 Grendel.
