I'll gladly take getting older to the alternative any day. I think maybe this weekend I will make time to go out and punch some holes in paper. Haven't done that in... months.

It's always good to know who your friends are.

But seriously... work has been kicking my ass the past few weeks. Getting to travel every so often is fun at first, but it starts to wear you down after a while. Anyway, just saying Hi.

I have several handguns in .40SW and find none of them to be snappy at all. As was pointed out by JeffSig, I think many of the posts you see about it are copy-cat posts.

Can I become a benefactor without using PayPal?

No, if the automated PayPal system is used it applies that credit to the TGO account of whomever used it. -
I get so damned tired of the "slippery slope" argument. Political correctness is a web of bull**** that just slows people down from doing what is right. Does anyone even care what is RIGHT or WRONG anymore, or are we so progressive now that we're forbidden from seeing black and white and forced to spend eternity debating shades of gray?

Having owned the Droid, played with the Droid X and studied the Droid 2.0 ... I'd still go for the Droid X. Especially since he's used to and likes the features of the iPhone. The Droid 2.0 is more or less Motorola's admission that they dicked up the original Droid; plus the software keyboard is infinitely better than the physical keyboard.

The Droid-X is probably the best Android OS based phone yet. Willis's comment about the Blackberry makes sense in context with the technical infrastructure at his company, but you don't have those concerns so there's really no reason to remain tethered to the Blackberry. Blackberry devices shine brightest when they are connected to a Blackberry Enterprise Server (BES) at corporate HQ. Unless you guys have a serious enterprise-scale network at Hero Gear now, which would be complete overkill, you don't have this concern. I'd go for the Droid.

And in their eyes validates the argument that he has violent tendencies. Little kids throw things in anger, and usually get punished as a result. I'd try to modify my behavior at work so that I didn't throw things anymore ... if I wanted to keep my job or future jobs.

Aren't you using the video clip icon as shown above?

Works here?

Just copy the URL of the Youtube video from your web browser's address bar and paste it into the post here. Nothing else is required.

Sorry, but have either Southern or Westboro Baptists flown passenger jets full of terrified innocent people into buildings full of terrified innocent people?

And for the record, while JayC is hell bent on beating the Constitutional "dead horse" of religious freedoms into the ground, allow me to don my cape and play the role of Captain Obvious for the moment. Our Constitution guarantees each of us the freedom of whatever religious beliefs we find appealing to us. It does NOT, however, guarantee us the opportunity to build a church, mosque, temple or prayer shanty wherever we damn well please. That's up to local municipalities, and if the no-bulls**t attitude of the few New Yorkers I know is any indication of the general species, I doubt this plan is going to get any traction except for among the ideologues and liberal loons. The common working stiff? He's the guy who is still mad as hell about the whole 9/11 thing and not about to forget what they did to us.

I don't think it is a useless caliber in the least. I have several handguns chambered in .40SW just as I have several in 9mm, several in .45ACP and so forth. While I carry my 9mm more often than not, consider these points about the .40SW 1. It is a very common police cartridge therefore you will have no problems finding good defensive ammunition for it, over the counter. 2. Most handguns chambered in .40SW give up only two or three rounds per magazine as compared to the 9mm variant of the same handgun. IF there is a tangible performance improvement in the .40SW over the 9mm, I would say that carrying two or three more 9mm is of negligible significance even to those who value capacity over caliber. In other words, would you feel better carrying 13 rds of a more potent cartridge or 15 rds of a less potent cartridge. I'm sure this point will ignite a caliber war, but whatever... it's good brain food.

Thanks for the support! -
I wouldn't worry about using an "A" name for the sake of being first in the phone book. First of all, it's cheesy. Second of all, what's a phone book? Do people still use those?

I've carried every time I've gone. If it's posted now, I'll start buying someone else's whiskey.

I feel like some real clarification ought to be done in this thread, so here's the back-story: The OP recently approached me about becoming a Vendor and also about posting a thread regarding job opportunities. I asked that he not come out and say, "Hey I am opening a new gun shop at 1234 Main Street and I'd like to hire you" because that would likely be perceived as covert advertising without being a Vendor. He understood, agreed and apparently posted what I suggested he post. In the meantime he's also been working with me behind the scenes to establish himself as a Vendor to make things proper. TGO does not offer anyone the corner on the market as being THE gun shop in their respective areas. I believe in free enterprise and believe that when gun stores compete for your business, they are not only helping themselves stay sharp but they are fostering an environment in which the customer is treated as the most important part of their business. Besides, it's the American dream to go into business for yourself and I say more power to anyone who tries it and even more power to those who succeed. I would HOPE that business competitors would conduct themselves as gentlemen and earn business by treating their customers with respect. I'm really sorry to see that this thread turned out like it did. I've been traveling for business the past week and have had almost zero internet-time as a result. I feel that I owe the OP an apology for not being present to take up for him since so many claims were lodged against him for using "covert" tactics to advertise after he did exactly what I asked him to do to avoid that sort of thing. No good deed goes unpunished.

So you have to wait several months to obtain aspirin when you have a headache because the government subsidized medicine cabinet is woefully backlogged?

Unfortunately, based on the numerous reports that I have read to date, I cannot share your optimism for it running 100% out of the box. I'd definitely run a few hundred rounds through it before carrying. Too many reports of them suffering FTF and FTE for some reason.

Best phraseology... EVER.
