Although knives are brutally effective weapons at close range a gun can still be utilized at danger close distances. It is not useless in a knife fight. Also, if you are not trained in how to use a knife, you will probably not do well in knife fight against a trained opponent. I would hesitate to say that at arms reach distances (danger close) the man with the knife wins 100% of the time or even 50% of the time. There are too many other factors.

.380 vs .38+p........... ? which is more lethal ?
Will Carry replied to SonnyCrockett's topic in Handguns
I would say which ever one you can deploy the fastest with the best accuracy. For me that would be my model 36 38 special. I do not shoot +Ps in it. The standard pressure ammo is good enough. The great thing about the 380 is the pocket pistols that shoot it are so small they can go with you anywhere. I carry a DB380 as a back up. According to this chart below there isn't much difference between the two. Handgun Cartridge Power Chart - Condensed Version The .357 Magnum is still the King. -
I just watched this old black and white Japanese movie made in 1954. It was in Japanese, subtitled in English. I didn't know what to expect but it blew me away. Hollywood copied it when they made The Magnificant Seven, but I think the original was better. I laughed my butt off. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnRUHtSgJ9o

I believed in Santa with all my heart. I believed he flew in a sleigh pulled by flying reindeer. I believed he gave presents to every child in the world in one night. I believed it because my mother, father, grandparents and Television and department stores said so. THEN I FOUND OUT THEY WERE ALL LYING! These same people who lied to me about Santa then told me about a man who was born of a virgin, walked on water, healed the sick, was crucified then rose from the dead and he ascended into heaven. So here I am, a six year old kid thinking, "You fooled me once, you won't fool me again!" So I say, BAN SANTA and tell your children the truth.

Opinion: What is the best John Wayne movie of all time?
Will Carry replied to gunrunner32's topic in General Chat
"What do you want me to do? Draw you a picture? Spell it out? Don't ever ask me! Long as you live, don't ever ask me more!!". Ethan Edwards. The Searchers. True Grit: Ned Pepper: What's your intention? Do you think one on four is a dogfall? Rooster Cogburn: I mean to kill you in one minute, Ned. Or see you hanged in Fort Smith at Judge Parker's convenience. Which'll it be? Ned Pepper: I call that bold talk for a one-eyed fat man. Rooster Cogburn: Fill your hands, you son of a bitch! -
I don't know how it is on the west side of the Appalachians but over here, on the east side, the media seems to be on an anti-gun blitz. Every day they are reporting every time a gun crime takes place or a negligent incident happens. I get suspicious when I start seeing that. I just wonder what the anti-2nd people are up to, they have not given up on banning firearms. Be safe out there. Don't give'm any fuel to burn. I wish I could tell those crazy people that "if your going to commit a murder/suicide, do the suicide first!"

3 Squirrels in my attic! I need some advice.

OK, You guys have convinced me. Trap it is. I'm hard headed but not stupid. -
How do you carry your j-frame?
Will Carry replied to Parrothead's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
The big advantage of a J frame revolver is the speed at which it can be grabbed and deployed. For that reason I carry my model 36 IWB on my strong side. It is that fastest pistol I own to grab and fire three rounds and get good hits. If you don't believe me (I own over two dozen handguns and I have had a contest to see which was faster. The little wheel gun won) try it yourself. -
3 Squirrels in my attic! I need some advice.
Will Carry replied to Will Carry's topic in General Chat
Thanks for the feedback and keep it coming. Right now I'm thinking a box of 22 shorts and some rat poison. That darn Crossman Pumpmaster 760 is a POS. It has a telescopic sight but it won't hit the same hole twice. I missed two good shots, now they are getting gun savy. Money is really tight right now, I've been working overtime lately just to pay the bills. I ain't letting no furry tailed tree rat ruin my Christmas but I have to be safe and smarter than the Squirrel. -
I have found the nest and where they are getting in at. It's a mother and two younguns. I have called professional Critter Gitters and they want $400-$500 to get the three Squirrels out of my attic. THAT AIN'T HAPPENING! I live in the suburban jungle called Research Triangle Park. I am not suppose to shoot firearms in my neighborhood. My Crossman Pump has missed twice today, I think the barrel is bent. I need a Squirrel Killing BB gun or a way to shoot my 22 quietly. I have been looking at some Benjamin air rifle that delivers at 1500 fps and 24 ft/lbs of energy. What about a 22 short in my rifle with some way of silencing the report? I am not shooting in my attic, I'm shooting in my back yard.

Has anyone seen the 2009 movie "Vengeance" ?
Will Carry replied to Will Carry's topic in General Chat
This old french dude's son in law, daughter and grandchildren get murdered by these hitmen and he promises vengeance. It has a Tarantino feel to it but doesn't suck like some of his movies. I don't want to give too much away but there are some ineresting twists like....they have a contest to see who can reassemble a 1911 the fastest. -
My wife and I got it on Netflix last night and as soon as I saw it was in French with English subtitles I almost turned ot off. I am glad I didn't. The subtitles don't last as it transistions into english but it was an excellent flick. It reminded me of a good western with a Hong Kong attitude. Highly recommended......

Numbers crunching on some real training.
Will Carry replied to Will Carry's topic in Training Discussions
The class is less expensive than I had originally expected. These guys are way out in the sticks (Mayberry) and charge less than the Raleigh (big city) area boys. I also will not have to take a vacation day. $175 for the class. $150 in ammo (no reloads) and a few gallons of gas. They highly recommend knee pads and elbow pads so maybe I will buy some... It looks like this class will cost less the $400. -

Will Carry replied to Will Carry's topic in Training Discussions
I did it! Signed up for Defensive Handgun Training from these guys Defensive Concepts North Carolina - Firearm training and the defensive use of the handgun, rifle and shotgun. . I may not have signed up if not for you guys, thanks. Now I have to pick a handgun to carry. Revolvers are out but my choices are: Glock 19 CZ-75 SP-01 XDm-40 4.5" Colt 1911 XD-45 I am leaning toward the Glock 19 but all of these pistols shoot great. -
I am a big fan of the XD series from Springfield, but I must admit that my Gen 4 Glock 19 is an awesome pistol. It is my EDC weapon. I have a Crimson Trace laser guard on it. This pistol will be a classic.
-
EDC is always loaded as are my HD guns. All others are unloaded.
-
Welcome to the club! I have a Mark II and a Mark III Hunter. These pistols are a much fun as a 1911 and as accurate a pistol as I have ever shoot.

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/11/26/nyregion/blind-new-jersey-man-challenged-again-on-guns.html I saw this on Faux News this morning. They are trying to say he's an alcoholic so they can deny him the right to own guns. It seems that all they have to do to prove you are an alcoholic is to show that you drink. 1)He did get kicked out of a bar in 2003 for being too drunk. They threw him out into the "public". 2)He did shot himself in the leg with a .357 magnum. Faux News had this really annoying New Jersey defense attorney on who made a complete fool out of herself. It was almost like Faux News was anti-gun.
