  1. why do you care? oh and I Forgot to do it the second time. Oh and since you were saying my post favored Islam, that was the intention. I go for the true nature of anything not the bastardized version. be it the teachings of Moses, Jesus, or Mohammad. (that is why i support The Constitution in its true form no the bastardized version the left is preaching) And I am disappointed by so many narrow minded views i see out here, make me question my move to Tn.
  2. In a way it is true, dumb**** criminals go to prison, meet up with other criminals from Nation of Islam ( not an actual Muslim group ) convert into Wahabism ( again not an actual muslim group- Wahabism was a product of of the British to weaken Islam and the Ottoman Empire, also Wahabism is the doctorine Bin Laden and other terrorists follow- they are not following ture muslims and are not counted as such ) since they converts to whabism, which has a false and super wrong extereme view about Islam they end up taking part in terrorist act, such as blowing themselves up(unforgivable sin in Islam) killing innocent non-combatants(against the Prophet's teachings) and thinking they are getting 72 virgins (not mentioned anywhere in Quran or by the prophet) all that portreyed by media as acts by muslims gives muslims a bad image as was originally wished by the establishment of Wahabism.
  3. Well i am glad i have a couple of the originalish P99's. don't like the new look.
  4. that is some ****ing bull****, the guy should be laughed at if it was during saddam times him and his whole family would be killed.
  5. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. mmmmmmmmmm stuffing i shall have you tonight
  6. For a change i am happy with $35, i feel it is reasonable. if you want high charges i suggest try FFL's in Ca. for person to person (both present) it is $35 maximum set by the state, i believe it is no charge here since you don't need to go to a FFL to sell your rifle to your brother. transfers from other FFL's is much much higher.
  7. I wouldn't trust any kind of ammo coming out of Pakistan. Their ammo is known to be crappy, out of spec you just name it.
  8. from a supported position yeah, but off hand is totally different, I don't think i can do that with any rifle and I always qualified expert. In a combat situation the more holes you make the better.

    Remington 1911

    when i saw the post I thought someone sourced one of the WWII Rem1911's. but now not so excited
  10. Thanks folks, closer to Una Antioch for now, I've been hearing that on TGO that it is not such a great area(Antioch). Well at least i have not settled in all the way yet, just staying at the in-laws till we find a place of our own. I actually find it pretty peacefull and quite. why did not move to Tn? besides the obvious, is since the wife could not adjust to Ca, or find a job, and me wanting to go to school full time it would be hard to live in Ca. PLus I had to use a tool to remove my 10 round mags out of my evil black rifles. Some pointers on what area to live would be appreciated.
  11. oh yeah patron state of shooting stuff I moved from SF Bay Area into your neck of the world, Antioch. Hi-cap mags, not yet, but i had quite a few even in Ca. but I'll buy me some more well i first came to Tn (Knoxville) in 97 with a couple of other Marines after we finished school in NC, and i really liked the place. so i guess almost 13 years
  12. Well guys finally moved to Nashville, got here last night. The wife picked me up form the airport she is super happy, now gotta go to DMV or whatever it is called to get me a TN DL, try to find a job, buy a house, rent an apartment or what not. wish me luck and any advice would be appreciated. Oh the lady next to me in the airplane was annoying. AJ
  13. BS, one can see from the first sentence that the article is a an ill-informed boogy-woogie scare peice.
  14. I wonder if the swamps were still contaminated in the mid 90's.
  15. Those are good prices. on other note sleep on the floor sucks, specially after tempupedic beds. Maybe can persuade the wife to get one, once i get to nashville later on this week.
  16. drop ot decock it either way, it just releases the tention on the spring, puts it at its natural position. And if a gun is that finiky that it is going to get damaged when you dry fire it, you don't need to own that POS.
  17. That was a fun read, and yes HK does hate you for reading that and laughing at times.
  18. Thank you kind sir, caliber is one of the hottly contested topics that mostly comes to misunderstandings.
  19. Only one shotgun is no fun, but if you insist. You can't go wrong with the 870. one thing to remember, Reminton only offers the combo with the 20in rifled bbl which is great for shooting sabot shots or non-rifled slugs out of, but not shooting shot out of. As i do not have any use for a rifled barrel, i bought a used 870 and then bought a 20in smooth barrel for shooting shot or rifled slugs. just something to think about. also you can buy a 3rd barrel if you do go the way of a 870 combo.
  20. [quote name= btw, 7.62x51mm is 7.62NATO not 7.62x39mm[/quote] Really? I guess i just crawled out from under a rock. now that is just insulting, to even mention that statement.
  21. 7.62x39 is as oxymoron as 6.8, their performance is about that same. Note the highlight. where do you get your info? chart with long barrel 6.5 Grendel vs 6.8 SPC, 7.62 NATO & 5.56 NATO - Shooters Forum check the attachment in the first post. Airborne Combat Engineer: 6.5 Grendel vs. 6.8 SPC, revisited Logic would seem to dictate a round with better terminal velocity and energy at longer ranges would also be better at shorter ranges, and a table [based on factory data for 20-inch barrels, not independent tests] in the aforementioned article supports this. The 6.8 SPC 115gr leaves the muzzle at 2700 fps, and drops to 2417 at 100 meters and 1903 at 300 meters. Energy is 1861 at the barrel, 1492 at 100 meters, and 925 at 300 meters. The 6.5 Grendel 123 leaves the muzzle at 2600 fps and drops to 2426 at 100 and 2098 at 300. Energy starts at 1846 and drops to 1607 at 100 and 1202 at 300. At longer ranges, it's still all Grendel, as expected. At 500 meters, the Grendel retains 1797fps and 882 ft-lbs energy, compared to 1470 and 552 for the 6.8 SPC. The difference becomes more pronounced out to 1000 yards 6.5 Grendel Fan Site :: For the 6.5 Grendel Aficionado As might be expected, bigger MatchKings produce greater fragmentation and correspondingly larger wound cavities. In May 2006 ballistic gelatin tests were conducted for 6.5 Grendel ammunition loaded with 123-grain MatchKings, which penetrated 2.0-2.5 inches before yawing and fragmenting. The gelatin blocks were shot from a distance of 50 yards, using an Alexander Arms Tactical 14.5 carbine. With an impact velocity of 2385 feet per second, maximum penetration was a shade over 16 inches, and maximum permanent cavity diameter was more than 6 inches. The bullet broke apart into multiple small fragments with jacket pieces visible at 11 inches and 13 inches. oh almost forgot, 7.62x39's inaccuracy is not only because of the round but because of the rifle (AK47 type) you put an ok round in a very good platform and you get good performance.
  22. yeah but ocatogon control is not the only thing that is being judged. number of strikes and damage is also being counted. Randy was not trying to finish the fight.
  23. The reason i think 6.5 is going to take over 6.8 is basic human common sense. people would go for the better performing round. the only reason anyone would use 6.8 is because they don't know about 6.5. I believe 6.8 is a fad that is going to pass and be forgotten. it is like this would you buy a car that can only do 4 second 0-60, can't go past let's say 88 MPH,and handles like a shopping cart? Or would you buy a BMW M3 that does 3.9 sec 0-6, has a top speed of 160 mph and handles like a race car? and it costs you less to use it. If anyone wants 300 or under yard performance in an AR they should get a 7.62x39 upper, at least ammo is available and cheap.
  24. My next AR is going to be 6.5, i think it is going to catch on better than 6.8. It has same or better ballistics under 300 and over 300 it leaves 6.8 in the dust. With Wolf producing really reasonable priced, decently accurate ammo it is something to look at.
