It's at the Armory and I will not be going. They all suck.

Dude isn't it ugly enough the way it is. Missing my Glock 24.

Well I have a whole safe full of revolvers and of those the wifes LCR may be the most accurate, the lightest, and have the smoothest trigger. My Smith's all have nastalgia and appeal. A LCR 38 weighs 13oz and is almost half the weight as some revolvers the same size. Draw backs of the LCR is they don't recommend lead bullets, as well as holster and grip selections are few.

No Vanderbilt has it's own PD. I'm sure there are a few Metro officers that are moonlighting there as they are at most colleges.

Honestly when I was in college most as in 90% would have had too much alcohol in their system to carry a firearm.

GT's does there 19, 17, 26 and equivalent for $ 451.xx OTD for TN residents. If you are a certified officer with a letter it is $421 ish.

A Gen 4 23 will be my next purchase. I may have had too big of expectations for the compensated. http://glocktalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1343620

I prefer outer waistband and something that rides high and close to the body. Everyone is different though.

I think I could tell that the recoil was tamed with the Gen4 over the Gen3 but it was awefully close. Like I said I don't think the average shooter can tell a difference in in a Gen 3 vs Gen 4 vs Compensated. I don't have a problem with a Compensated, I just don't see an improvement. I have never heard anyone say it about Glocks but a Revolver that is Compensated or ported is normally a little less accurate around 50 feet. Just what people say. I didn't find any truth to that with a Glock though.

NO! Quit assuming the turd had brains in his head!

No matter what caliber it's where it lands that counts. Trooper Mark Hunter Coates, South Carolina Highway Patrol, South Carolina

No the 40SW was designed for those that were too sissy to handle the 10mm. I can't count the number of times I have heard someone say I got out of 40's and went to just 9mm and 45acp because I didn't like the recoil.

From the begining I thought it was a good idea. The pistol grips should only be fired from the hip in my opinion.

I think I can tell a difference between a gen3 and gen4 19, but I haven't shot a gen4 40 yet. I will say with the 23C I shot I did not see the flash so don't worry about the old wise tail. I don't recall any debris or grime coming back my direction though.

My favorite is the "Baby Glock on Board"

The average shooter will never feel the difference in shooting those three. The Compensated will blacken the front sight after just a few rounds. It's a wiast of money in my opinion.

You never know, the first homicide I ever worked was a single shot from a 22lr. I have also went to the ER to talk with a shooting victim and he was talking to me plain as day with a 44mag round in his shoulder, alcohol and guns don't mix.

Normally you don't hear of too many bad Taurus Revolvers. I'd take a used beat up Smith, Colt, or Ruger over a new Taurus any day. I also agree with you on the Sig 250's though, theres just something missing with them.

If the turn ring is the biggest flaw I think it may bring $450 then.

This is true but I find them a lot more believeable than a Sasquatch.

I never heard you say that it was a model 60? The papers help a little but the box is what makes it.

To me this is a lot like OC and just telling the turds what to expect and where its coming from.

The box and papers believe it or not means a lot. I would say 450 is about max. I bought a rough model 36 for 275 out the door at a shop and had been there priced at 350 for months. I cant think of too many S&W snubs 38spl that would be that rare of a find.

If I had a range i bet I might be able to hit 80yrds. Mine is unbelieveably accurate.

I dont want to be the first target win **** goes south. Im not fooling anyone, I look like a cop. Your right my best tactical advantage is my situational awarness, I have been in several fights were the perp has went for my gun and I dont want to be in that situation if i dont have to be and not with only a single retention holster. I was off duty and thought I was getting ready to be in a gas station holdup with only a .380 but was glad i allready had my hand on it in my coat pocket. Who knows what would have happened had 2 more people not walked in. As far as police OC it comes down to department policy. Most departments want you to act like your a armed citizen and just be a good witness if crap happens.
