I value wisdom far above intelligence. Think of a jigsaw puzzle. Just because you have all the pieces doesn't mean you can put it together. They dismiss the picture on the box because that is too easy and the "old" way. They want to show how smart they are and how wrong everyone else is by showing you the picture isn't really the picture. You just have to trust that their brilliance is superior to what you can see and know. Liberalism has proven this over and over and over again. They value scholastic intelligence, yet have "learned" nothing of wisdom.

Well, those are nice concealed carry bags .... I guess. If you like that kinda thing. Who's the little boy? -
No greater affront to the 2nd Amendment has ever been attempted

I guess. Canada, bear PAWS (not arms), US Constitution, and 2A. Rather roundabout, involved joke. -

I guess I don't get it ???? -
No. The 9x21 IMI was designed by the Israelis as a get around of stupid European gun laws. The Largo is a 9x23 rounds. Just in case folks didn't know the last number is the case length. So the largo case is 23mm long and the NATO is 19mm long.

Tennessee Woman Told to Remove American Flag
Smith replied to Garufa's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
I don't see the issue. The association doesn't allow any flags or signs and they fly two on the business park entrance. It has nothing to do with the American flag on private property, as many of the other stories we hear about. -
I've ordered stuff from them several times and it usually takes no more than 2 weeks, but I have heard of others taking longer. Their stuff ships straight from the factories and sometimes can take awhile.

Noi offense taken as the statement is cowardly of us. Isolationism is is self serving in one hand and destructive on the other. Ignoring the rest of the world is what allowed Hitler to rebuild Germany for WWII. Ignoring what was going on in that region prior to WWI is what led to that disaster. Just saying that taking our hands off will benefit us in the short term and yet we will inevitably be drawn into a much larger more destructive problem later on. Also, for us to keep to ourselves assumes that everyone else will too. This led to the rise of Communist Russia and China. Global politics are not as simply as some want to make it. I don't like that we are everywhere and there needs to be a balance.

Because we are the ones they will be used against. Not to mention our only ally in the Middle East, Israel. We live in a different time than every before. As the world shrinks, we can't hide on the other side of the world and ignore everyone else. Our economies, security, ...... are all linked too closely.

I didn't mean to knock the bike. I was just saying it is kinda like upgrading and servicing a 15 year old Sigma. It probably wouldn't be cost effective or gain you much. Oh, it definitely was back in the heyday of John Tomac!
-
Even though the .357 sig is based on the .40 case, the .357 sig case is slightly longer. If you re-size a .40 case it will be too short to be safe in the .357 Sig
-
Keep in mind for reloading that you can not use standard 9mm bullets in the .357 sig as the diameter is different enough to cause problems and you can not use a .40 case, even though it is the parent case.
-
We all start somewhere. Thing I have learned is that the more I learn the more I realize I don't know. People who think they have it all figured out stopped learning pretty early in the curve. BTW - reason I listed all the 9mm variants is that in the store we have had more than a few people try to buy 9mm Mak for a .380, .380 for a 9mm, 9mm for a .380, or even 9mm for a Glock .40 9! Think on that for a minute!
-
There aren't that many different rounds just a lot of names for the same rounds. What we typically call 380 ACP/Auto = 9mm short, 9mm kurz, 9x17, 9mm browning, 9mm browning short, ..... What we typically call 9mm usually refers to = 9x19, 9mm parabellum, 9mm NATO, ....... All the others just share the commonality of relative bullet diameter mainly being 9mm caliber. We haven't even gotten to the rifle variants! Here is a good read on the 9mm caliber 9 mm caliber - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
-
well, get ready for this .... .357 sig, 357 magnum, and 38's are also 9mm ..... but not 9x19 . BTW - 9mm short, 9mm browning, 9mm kurz, 9mm mak, 9x21, 9x18, and 9x17 are NOT the same as 9mm Luger, 9mm Parabellum, 9mm Nato, 9x19, ect.

Your 15 year old bike is more than out of date. Even getting it tuned up is not worth the time or money. Cables will need to be replaced. I can guarantee you the dampers in the fork are gone and the oil is worthless. The components on your bike are not even up-gradable at this point as too much has changed during the years. Giant is the way to go for the money. They make nearly everyone else OEM frames. Jamis is another very good bargain bike. Make sure your rear dropout is able to take aftermarket gear changers as well as the bottom bracket and headsets.

Good to see you again Urse! I got the TWS Gen II rail and it is worth every cent and probably a few more. Makes the one drawback I had with the AK obsolete (cheek weld). Doing the full conversion completely changes the balance of the gun for the better. A trigger guard, grip, and buttstock and you're on your way.
-
So where is this money? It doesn't exist. Mainly because the Feds have been borrowing from it and are now borrowing from future expected income. IF they had never touched it like they said they would it MIGHT still be serviceable, but that point of no return past long ago. They are stealing from the Ponzi scheme. Madoff's got nothing on these guys.

Have you turned it back on? I'm still not getting e-mails.

There is no ambiguity on which weapons are classified as which. The ATF will tell you very succinctly. Any weapon sold on the legal market has a definitive classification. That being said there are a multitude of guns, some of which are very similar yet classified very differently. AK's being one of them. You can have AK pistols, SBR's, full-auto, rifle, etc. Some of the differences are readily noticeable, some are not. It is unreasonable to expect officers to know every weapon and it's classification by looks alone. The officer detained Leonard long enough to get a definitive answer to the weapon in question then let him go once it was determined. I would expect no less from our officers. The fact it took several hours is irrelevant.
-
This has been hashed beyond reason on this forum, but I would hope Rangers would at least detain a person carrying what appears to be an SBR'ed AK47 in a local uppity park. He held him long enough to find out what the legal response should be and then let him go. IIRC the original story the gun was not confiscated.

Evidently 50 Cent and some former Florida ATF agent

Well, he is the "Dark Knight". J/K. I can't wait. These movies have all been really good.
