See, still don't get it. I'm not arguing law. I'm arguing morality. And morally, whether it is legal or not, has no bearing.

So still not getting it. It's a shame that you, and others like you, will just blindly give your right to life away like that.

Just from pictures, I'd guess that this will suffer from the same thumb complaints that the full size did. I am very curious if the trigger is any better.

You still aren't understanding the argument. The point is, why are we as a society, giving anyone the right to enforce laws by force up to and including the taking of life, where there is no victim other than the state. The state CANNOT be a victim. And if there is no victim, there is no crime. Forget the weed. Make it a seatbelt violation or going two miles an hour over the speed limit. It doesn't matter what the "crime" was, because our argument is that there wasn't an actual crime to begin with.

I'll eat my words. But then also, the next two weeks terrify me.

So when they make guns illegal, you're just going to turn them all in right? And the cops aren't bad guys, they're just doing their job.

And that in and of itself is a problem. I'd rather a guy be smoking weed and have a gun than any number of prescription drugs and have a gun. But that aint illegal. And I'm not going to just take a cop's word for it. Probable cause is a joke and they have probable cause for EVERYTHING. Literally saying I smelled weed gives them a pass to do ANYTHING. I've been pulled over for matching a description so many times. They are just looking for a reason to hurt someone, physically or otherwise. I've also been pulled over for being fat. I'm not quite where ChuckTShoes is at on cops, but every story that comes out makes me angrier and angrier.

Thats understandable. I don't like to think of myself as a hoarder. My goal is to one day have about 10,000 rounds of any caliber ready to go. I have about 7k of various 22. 3k of 9mm and a lot less in my rifle calibers. I just buy what I can when I can knowing one day it won't be available and I'll still be able to take my usual range trips.

So this part is basically a documentary?

I've thought about it. But I'm not a great shooter and adding speed doesn't help. I shoot to relax and putting a timer on it would kill that. I raced a lot and almost made myself hate driving. I get too wrapped up in how much I suck.

I still haven't forgiven Rick for some stuff that happened a while back. But I'm getting there. I do miss my XM18 and have been thinking about another. Not ready yet but someone is going to get a good knife!

I wouldn't pay any attention to MAC's test on the M&P. Its a joke. He says right up front that it has aftermarket parts in it and then at the end says they definitely didn't cause the malfunctions because they don't change the mechanism. Put the stock parts back in or grab a new one out of the case and test it. He can't say he can't afford it because he's made enough money off the channel to buy a shop and an 8k dollar 249. He can afford to lose 100 bucks on a M&P. The glock also failed the water test I think, Can't remember for sure but I don't think it went fully into battery with just water. Doesn't matter, these reviews have really been the last straw for me. I was already frustrated that he only played with expensive toys that I can't afford and talked about them like everyone could. These tests just kinda sealed it for me, I unsubscribed. I miss the old days when he just showed off old mil weapons.

This isn't really surprising. They used to allow recreational vehicles on a lot of their land and they have been slowly barring that as well.

They beat Florida, finally. Unfortunately, with the way they play and the fact they try to give me a heart attack every Saturday, I fully expect them to fall to UGA this weekend.

You will spend more than its worth to have someone solder in upgrades. Sell it and upgrade to a better unit. And if the new one is soldered together, then max it out at purchase. You'll pay a fortune, but it run better for a lot longer.

I'll go ahead and add it to this. His history should not have anything to do with this. If he is too much of a terrible person to be a part of society, he should still be in jail. If he has served his time for whatever crime he committed, he should have all his rights restored. If the person can't be trusted with those rights, he can't be trusted to be a part of society and should be incarcerated. People sure get their panties in a wad about what exactly the second amendment is for every time a politician tries to limit it but those same people are okay with former criminals having their rights stripped. The second amendment doesn't say except felons, they bad!!!!!!

There was supposed to be more to that but I was sitting in my car waiting on someone to open the building so I could work. Internet cut out and while trying to switch from wifi to cell data, I think I hit send. I just had a spinning disc on my screen and I couldn't type anymore but I didn't see where the post was made. It was meant as a lighthearted joke and If I had been able to continue typing, that would likely have been conveyed. You would be correct. I've never shot anything competitively. Not really my bag. But my mark series do get taken down. I've upgraded a few with VQ parts. I can appreciate that. I was just talking about for cleaning though since thats usually when people complain. They can't put it back together and 9 times out of 10 its because they don't pay attention to the hammer strut when putting the mainspring back in. Other than that, its as simple as any other gun that I've ever dealt with. For the record, I do take mine down to clean. I was just trying to be sarcastically silly when I made that post that wasn't complete when it sent.

The people that complain about the older mark series pistols are merely incompetent to work on guns. Besides, it doesn't even need to be taken apart. Ever.

I've personally never really had a problem with disassembly or assembly. But I still want one.

So last week Ruger sent an email saying that they have a new firearm coming out. I'm putting this in Handguns but I don't know if its going to be a handgun or not. I'm just guessing it is. We should know tomorrow what it is actually is. If you do know, don't tell but let's hear some guesses ahead of the official announcement tomorrow. What do you hope it is?

You got me there. But I was referring to recent history. As in OK City or the Unibomber or Waco.

The US Military should have never been involved. I don't recall the military being used after any other terrorist's attack on us.

you are one of those that will sacrifice Liberty for safety. Sorry, but you're wrong. We aren't better off. I remember those dates as well. And no reason to bring Kap into this. We've discussed his decision at length and I think you'll find the same people that support Kap are against you in this thread as well.

I'll never forget that the events of that day were used by our politicians to justify stripping us of freedoms and the indiscriminate murder of millions of middle easterners and servicemen and women from countless nation's armies.

I got my license and quickly realized that the only thing to do in town is to hit the big repeater at night and say hello. Other than that, there isn't hardly any traffic and its not even worth doing. And if the SHTF for real, who gives a crap about a license. Emergency throws licensing out the window.
