Wow. :o

Cool new toys. Now about that guitar.... http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pzeoLe6nSrU

I don't know of anywhere that would teach sling use other than the military or Appleseed.

Looks good to me like it is. I'm not a big fan of gloss finishes on gun stocks.

I have a hogue slip-on grip on my P3AT and it makes a big difference.

I learned it in a CMP clinic as well, and it certainly helps. But it would seem of only modest use in modern combat. The opportunity to sit relatively still with sustained fire doesn't seem to happen much.

"Join us or die" was around long before the Koran or the Bible. I'd say it originated with the first disagreement between men. Why us and not someone else? With great power comes great responsibility. I don't much care for the idea of going back into the fire, but again, I like the idea of doing nothing even less.

Imagine getting slammed head first into a coral reef. That's why they don't rent them in the US. Those videos look to be filmed in the Caribbean.

Me too. I'm trying to keep my boys that way too, but it's really difficult these days. They already know a few words they shouldn't and we've tried to explain why its not good to use them. When watching tv, the 6 yr old will say, "dad, he used God's name! He shouldn't say that!". No he shouldn't son, no he shouldn't.

I don't disagree, but I also have issue with standing by and watching genocide. They're unable to defend themselves against the might of ISIS. It's what we do, we fight for those who can't fight for themselves. ISIS appears to use the age old method, "join us or die."

Wow.  Good news for Cookevegas. 

If you're confident you can get the 1st round on target under duress, I don't see that it's anything other than personal preference.

LCP - Make sure the mags were inserted properly.  Make sure your hand isn't rubbing on the slide and slowing it down during operation.  Make sure you've got a firm hold on the pistol, little guns are more sensitive to limp-wristing than larger ones.    G19 - brass to the face isn't unusual.  I don't own one but a friend's did that.  Some say it's worn mags, some say worn extractors, some say dirty gun, some say limp wristing, ... 

    It never would have gotten that far with my parents either.  I recall having a fit while getting a haircut as a child.  After a brief trip back to the truck with Dad, I climbed back in barber's chair and got my hair cut without making another sound.  :stare:

      Do you really think the mom learned anything?  I don't.  All she probably did was drag the screaming kid to the car while swearing like a sailor to whoever was on the other end of the phone call about what that guy did.  Wonder where the kid learned to behave that way?   Did anyone tell the kid that he won't get a pie unless he shuts his yap?  Nope.  Maybe I'm being too cynical again, but I think the point was completely lost.  All the kid knows is the store ran out of pies.  A child is not going to make the connection that his behavior resulted in not getting a pie unless someone (the parent) points that out in a somewhat calm and rational manner.  I strongly doubt that's what happened after the guy left.   Don't get me wrong, what the guy did is pretty dang funny.  I just don't think he accomplished anything good other than giving his coworkers a free dose of diabetic coma. 

    I'm intrigued and flattered.  Unfortunately you're a tad far away for lessons.

A strange situation indeed.  I think you did the best you could.   Shooting back probably would have escalated the situation.  They likely had access to more firepower than you.  Bugging out seems like the best choice. 

I don't always shoot semi's but when I do, I prefer striker fired.  :)

:up:   I'd like to learn to play the harmonica. 

Nice try, but there is no lesson there.  Just pissed the mom off and she takes it out on the kid.  You can't teach polite behavior by being selfish yourself.  All that kid learned is yet more selfishness. 

I thought all they did was say kids at private universities could unionize and attempt to get paid?

  FTFY...

    Journalism in the Knoxville Sentinel?  :rofl:

Thanks. That is pretty darn ugly. I've found peep sights to be much easier to use than blade sights.

Welcome!
