  1. I do. I carry a government sized Kimber Warrior with a Surefire X300 in a Raven Concealment Phantom LC holster. My Glock 19 is similarly outfitted.
  2. I am a light junkie. I have bought a lot of lights over the years. The Surefire X300 pretty much ended my search. I haven't bought another light since trying this one out. You can find cheaper ones, but you won't find a better one. Raven Concealment makes holsters to fit most standard weapons with most kinds of lights.
  3. I tried out a stippled grip that someone put on an M&P last week and it was amazing. It was do grippy that you could literally feel the stipple grip insert acting as the anchor point in your hand. It was like the rest of the grip was moving a fraction of an inch and that grip panel was staying put.
  4. The thought is that during a stressful situation, fine motor skills degrade proportionally as stress increases. Physically racking the slide is a gross motor movement that you're more likely to be able to perform under stress.
  5. I'm pretty sure his appointment was a strategic one to keep him from being pressured to throw his name in the hat for the republican nomination.
  6. Herbert Shughart is still a hero of mine. I hope Mr. Woods gets the opportunity to have a similar conversation.
  7. I hope Gary Gordon and Randy Shughart are waiting to welcome them at the pearly gates. Stuff like this makes my blood boil.
  8. I did some checking. Our two "election obersevers" in Nashville are from France and Armenia. That's rich!It's a sad day when we have someone "checking" our polls, and yet the elections in Venezuela are called the "freest and fairest elections in the world." Seriously. Some folks need to check the chemical content of their breakfast cereal.
  9. Voted this morning. Edmundson Pike Library. 13 minutes from the time I got out of my truck until the time I got back in, including the time spent changing my address. I did notice a gentleman standing in the corner who kind of looked out of place. Looking at the tag he had on, he was a "U.N. Election Observer". I can attest to the fact that no one was oppressed, repressed or otherwise kept from voting while I was there.
  10. We're keeping you guys in our prayers. Please keep up apprised of his status.
  11. Wall Street Journal has Hillary today being a good team player and "possibly" considering sticking around for a second term. I guess trying to fall on her sword for President Obama tarnishes her image, leaves a bad last impression, and hurts her 2016 chances. Lord help us if she ever becomes president. They'll have to pull her off the drapes to get her to leave.
  12. This thread got me to thinking about this picture that has recently been colorized. It's from the 1927 Solvay Conference, and has 29 of the brightest minds of the time Over half of them would go on to win Nobel Prizes, Marie Curie twice. This particular conference focused on the newly formulated quantum theory. Einstein made his famous quote regarding Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle that, "God does not play dice", to which Neils Bohr replied, "Einstein, stop telling God what to do!" You can look at this list and every single one made a lasting contribution to science. Heck, a lot of them had an impact on this Boeing mystery missle.
  13. Oh, I was talking about all your equipment that's going to be down. I'm waiting until the apocalypse to take up smoking anyway...too many other expensive vices...so you're probably right about the stogies.
  14. Meh...chances are it'll still be there waiting when you get there
  15. Hold on, let me check..yep calendar is free the rest of the day. Shoot...an EMP clears up my whole week.
  16. At the Trinity Atomic Test Site in 1945, the 1938 Nobel Prize winner Enrico Fermi was taking bets on whether it would destroy all life on earth... I guess he was was sitting there, so maybe he knew the odds were in his favor.
  17. I wonder what that math looks like when your target is an airshaft leading to a bunch of centrifuge cascades buried under a mountain.
  18. Maybe a scaled down version of the Phantom Ray that they test flew in 2009. http://www.darkgovernment.com/news/airborne-microwave-weapon-destroys-electronics/ - excuse the source - they had better diagrams than the Boeing Phantom Works wiki page
  19. Yeah, you know the interesting thing about anything in the microwave spectrum is that it attenuates pretty quickly. I wonder if they're kicking the speed up to "missle" speed in order to be able to get a lot closer to their intended targets. It's been a while for me on anything microwave, though it strikes me that the first real "laser" was the microwave based "maser". I wonder how close is close enough.
  20. Pretty cool whatever it is they're using. Figure one high speed pass with this thing could clear any anti-aircraft batteries out of an attack path.
  21. Hmm. Actually, destroying multiples targets before self destructing, I don't know that I'd call it a missle. More of a high speed drone with a ginormous microwave laser with a kickin' gyro system controlling targeting. I guess missile is easier to type.
  22. OpsGear has it on sale
  23. I've got an MS3 and love it. It's become my go to sling.
