  1.   At the point were an attempt was made to take the officer's sidearm, a deadly threat situation against the officer had taken place.   A taser is used to gain compliance - - - not to defend an officer from dealth.
  2. 21 feet and the Tueller Drill.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwHYRBNc9r8
  3. Rickey,   So MTSC in Manchester is back to being an IDPA club?    Mark
  4. Did anybody take note that this BCG is for a slick-side upper?   No cuts for a forward assist.
  5. Could it be that the monkeys at Century Arms are now making BCGs? :ugh:
  6. Here are the Blurry pictures of the BCG that were posted on AKForum.net He provides no other details! HOWEVER........ Appears from the photos that he doesn't live with his GF (note the toilet seat).
  7. Was this one of PSA's "PTAC" BCG?
  8. Just be glad that the guy was trying to me helpful with some un-wanted advice.....   ..... and not trying to sneak up and take your firearm from you! 
  9.   Well that was one of his claims....., sort of like him saying that he was such a great shooter that he didn't need a good trigger.  :ugh:
  10. Seem that as of late all he wanted to do was throw a frag grenade into whatever thread he posted to. Many of his post were beyond arrogant. Most of his post were condescending. Agree it was to time for ab28 to be told ......
  11. After much thought, deep contemplation and careful consideration ...., I have come to a distinct and pronounced decision.   I am finally going to shoot my 80s vintage Colt Custom Shop Delta Elite in an IDPA match!   :bat:   Wonder how far back into the ammo bunker I'm going to have to go to find enough 10mm?   I had also better double-up on the pain & arthritis medications starting now!    :eek: 
  12. I can attest to the effectiveness of the suppressor on 173ABN's AI.    This week at the range it sounded like he was dry-firing while shooting sub-sonic loads.  All you heard was the click of the firing pin going forward.  If it wasn't for the sound of the impact on the 300 yard steel plate, you would never know that a bullet had gone down range.   Even with standard loads, the sound was just a low "pop."   Impressive!  :cool:
  13. Its just like the Clinton purges from the mid-late 90s.    Back then it was to "right-sized" the Army for the "peace dividend" that was suppose to pay down the national debt.  We know how well that money was spent! 
  14. As much as I love the Old Muscle, you can't deny that today's performance cars are leaps and bounds ahead of that great era of the 60s and early 70s.   Example - - - The new 2015 Mustang GT's 5.0-liter (302 c.i.) engine produces 435hp and 400 lb-ft of torque while getting a combined 20+mpg.   AND you don't have to adjust any solid lifters, clean & re-gap the plugs, or set the points before every weekend! 
  15. Carry - M&P Shield   Competition - M&P 9Pro (with Apex Tactical Trigger kit and Reset Assist Mechanism).   https://apextactical.com/store/product-list.php?pg1-cid11.html
  16. The LS3 is gone. I finally grew up and now have a four-door I sold my 2002 ZO6 to finally get a ZR-1. It was the most memorable Corvette that I ever owned!
  17. I've had a few and they came with these engine codes......   L76,L79,L36,L82,L98,LT5,LT1,LS1,LS6,LS3
  18. If you have never taken any methods of instruction course, the NRA's instructor course is a very good base to start from.   I have a couple of instructor/coach certifications from the NRA.  To be honest, some of the techniques they present are a bit dated - - - but that doesn't mean that you can't learn something from their training.    Agree with chances R, its beneficial because its a proven product.  To a new shooter a NRA instructor does have the legitimacy that many look for when wishing to learn about firearms. 
  19. HOLY SH*T! When did I lose all of my HAIR!!!!!!!! We are blessed as a nation to have such men. Thanks for the invite to attend 173rdABN. Good to see so many fellow TGOers there.
  20.   :stunned:
  21. I have carried a bobbed hammer Model 37 Airweight as my BUG for longer than I can recall (Starting to get those senior moments). So I understand your "pain." A light J Frame requires that you get the web of the hand as high up on the backstrap as possible to manage the recoil. Its one of the reason I carry a Model 37 and not a 442 or 642. With the 37 my grip is so high that the web of my hand rolls over the top of the backstrap (thus the reason for the bobbed hammer). The higher backstrap of the 442 or 642 won't allow that and I have found those J Frames to be beyond snappy As the delightful Alicia Keyes is about to find out......
  22. Spiffy,   ORSA will be running a 200 yard CMP Games Match on 20 Sep.  That would be a good match to start with.
  23. The HBAR would be OK in NRA and CMP service rifle matches so long as it has the USGI profile beginning at the FSB.   Correct that CMP Games Match rules require an "as-issued" profile only - - - even under the handguards.    http://www.thecmp.org/Competitions/CMPGamesRules.pdf
  24. Yes you can have either an A1 or A2 buttstock.   You can also have either an A1 or A2 grip.   Handguards can be A1, A2...., or A4 (allowed, but I have never seen anyone using a railed handguard).   You can also use an A4 upper, but the full rear sight carry handle must be used.   Basically any configuration of the full-size service rifle.   M4 style carbines are not allowed as a service rifle, but most local club matches will allow you to shoot one in a "out-of-competition" category.  You can shoot the match, your scores just won't be recorded.
  25. Tea..., Earl Grey...., Hot. Make It SO! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2IJdfxWtPM Actually, as a Gentleman Farmer, I prefer my Earl Grey as Afternoon Tea served sitting in low chairs while relaxing in the garden. ---- Getting Back On Topic ----- As leftlyk82 noted, a basic, stock M16A2 configured AR is a good place to start in Service Rifle. You can add all of the other National Match level parts as you skills develop and you begin to outshoot your rifle. The only thing that I would do right from the beginning is a good two-stage trigger. I've watched too many folks over the years struggle with the restraints of a standard heavy, creepy USGI trigger not to recommend that as a must-do-first modification.
