Just test Buffalo Bore if you find some, the 9mm+p+ was some of the worst grouping ammo I have ever shot, and no it wasn't because of excessive recoil.

http://www.wrcbtv.com/story/24400315/crime-stoppers-thief It began as a normal late-November day at Southern Gold on Brainerd Road. Surveillance video shows a woman entering the store. "She's a black female," explained Chattanooga Police Sgt. Craig Joel, "5'6", 5'8", average build, maybe around 150 to 160 pounds, or so; appears to be in her mid-20's." The woman spread some jewelry out on the counter to be appraised, perhaps to sell, and that is when the extraordinary happened. "The actual employee doing the inspection realized this was her own gold," Sgt. Joel said. "Of all the pawn shops, of all the gold shops in this county, city, tri-city area, the odds are kind of astronomical that this happened." Later, police would find the door kicked open at the employee's residence and several thousand dollars worth of jewelry and electronics missing. When she recognized the pieces as her own, some of them custom-made, she tried to call to get police officers to the store. "The suspect made excuses to step outside and fled the scene," said Joel. "They weren't able to locate her." That leaves you with an opportunity to aid the investigation and earn some reward cash. Have a good look at our suspect. The surveillance video and pictures are admittedly not of the best quality, but there are other clues. "We're hoping that someone will recognize her based on her purse, her appearance, her demeanor," Sgt. Joel added. "We think that there's someone out there that will recognize her and if they do, that recognition could lead to a reward." There is a chance this freak occurrence scared this thief straight. Coming face-to-face with the victim like that may have made her swear-off a life of larceny, but we don't know that for sure. Let us not take a chance, help stop her before she strikes someone else's house. There is up to $1,000 waiting for the right bit of information. Call Crime Stoppers: 698-3333 Remember, a police officer may answer the phone or return your call, but he will never ask your identity.    

It feels just as good without the sleeve, they should have made the baseplate one solid piece including the sleeve. Similar to a Glock 30/36 baseplate but to the same Shield ergonomics.

My take on it if anyone cares: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vwXu4WAnFKw

There have been a few already hit dealers.

When George W Bush left office gas was $1.78 us/gal. Just saying! Just trying to fuel some fire. I used to see bumper stickers saying, "When Bush took office gas was 1.48 gal."

I knew a Walmart manager that was doing that a year ago at the height of the shortage, I mentioned it on here and people were bitching about it. I am sure it was a reseller anyway.

I for one hope to have one soon, being that it is lighter than a G21 it is an all around improvement and roughly the same length as a standard 1911.

While a better nightstand gun, beware of firing magnum loads inside without hearing protection. I recently met a guy who had almost complete hearing loss from firing a snub nosed 357 in his basement. It has really got me thinking about a set of electronic ear muffs to sit on the nightstand.

If it is in good shape, even with one barrel that is a deal.

Glock already announced the G41 to be a tactical practical 45. A G21 frame with a G34 width slide but for 45acp, making it lighter than a G 21.

I have one on the 7rd magazine. It's ok, it should have been made a little longer and straighter. With medium to large hands my fingers feel cramped, but not as bad as the keltec extension on a Pf-9 though.

Yes, and truthfully really didn't care since I treat all approaches with equal caution.

I can't believe people even buy the .40 with so many departments using the 40 I have thrown away more than I have reloaded. I did trade 1k 40 for 1k 9 awhile back.

I have several Glocks and have carried my Shield a lot lately, to me the M&Ps hold up a lot worse than even the newer Glocks. Those ~$325 M&Ps on the used market people aren't even buying because they look so bad.

Officially, the Tenifer process stopped in 2009. There are still publications out there with claims to a Tenifer treatment process and still sales reps and customer service reps claiming the Tenifer process. Tenifer was just a patented name, to my understanding the same company is doing the finishes now called nitrating.

It is in fact in comparison to the same calendar date the year before. Also though keep in mind that if you were involved in a serious wreck and injured someone they have one year to count their death as a fatality for the year. From today until Dec 31, 2014, I bet 2013 TN traffic fatalities increase by 5-10 more fatalities.

When I used to work patrol I could look up license plates through the TN department of safety website(accessed by LEO only). It would take me to a page that did have the drivers info to include DL and HCP. I rarely did this initially because of the time involved. If I just called a plate into dispatch I would not know by the plate if the RO had a HCP.

I know a female manager at a Walmart that I have had some interactions with tell me she didn't care if Walmart got any ammo in or not. And that it was up to her if she even wanted to place an order.

Sea_Dog, I got to Hawaii as a MP in 2003 and was working a gate with a cool, laid back Specialist. It was my 1st week and he was telling me a few tips, pointers, and stories. I told him. "I heard about that stupid private that got caught screwing the SGM's daughter in the back of the patrol car. He must be scrubbing toilets somewhere right now but truthfully should be in jail". Later that same night the specialist cute wife comes by to talk to him and bring some lunch. She hangs out for a few minutes and leaves, she comes back through the gate but she is with our SGM. SGM says hi and calls the specialist by his first name. The car leaves, I say to the specialist, "That's weird". The specialist says, "No, it took a few months but he got over what happened in the patrol car".

I can't believe I didn't share more of my stories, flash back to December of 2002 at Ft Leonard Wood. I was in basic with this loud mouth, ugly gal from Brooklyn. No one including the DS could say something without her voicing her opinion. Oh, did I mention she was ugly? Anyway, one day we all get called out to the company area for a head count. The DS count everyone about three times and they are running around like crazy, we had no clue what was going on. MPs and CID start showing up by the dozens, now they are running around back and forth between my company and the company next door. We over hear a DS talking to another DS and hear him say, "****** Drill Sergeant Palmer *** ********* ** ** what a ********* idiot". We go up to the kill zone and one of our DS tells us the DS from the company over got caught screwing private "ugly" and that they had went AWOL.

WHAT? Where are you getting that info?

Unless you think you may shoot more than 10k lead bullets through the same gun I wouldn't bother to change the barrel. The lead left behind easily comes out with a brush. I do reload 9mm but it's questionable if it's worth it. Now if you were to cast 9mm would make a lot of sense, roughly 50 9mm come out of a pound of lead.

Oh, yeah the M&P 45c does feel great. I have yet to shoot one but they feel better to me than a Glock 21/30 after handling a Glock 23 all day. My familiarity of Glocks in 9 and 40 has what has ruined me on Glocks in 21/30. After years and 10k rounds through Glocks in 9 and 40 the 30 feels odd to me but a M&P45c doesn't.

I started when I was 10 years old with my dad and his friends. Honestly, I believe for the most part everywhere has been hunted out. I haven't been in over 10 years.
