Drive by burglary has been occurring in rural South Knoxville. Brother in law home, house looks like no one is home. Walks around the front, see an unmarked box truck in his drive. Occupants of truck see him, stops, and immediately reverses back down the driveway. Be cautious and observant my friends

Agree, we use it at work. But, the displayed address may be spoofed (I think that is the correct term) and open you up. I'm slightly paranoid with the line of work I ended up in, just spreading info with fear

Unknown user posts a link to a recognized site, but is it??? What if it was a ransomware link or other malicious file? No different than spear phishing email addresses. Please accept my apologies if it appears I am casting aspersions on your character, but Ukranian, Estonian and Chinese hackers pose as Nigerian princes tactics for a click

Test run of my recently obtained Bowie Tactical G19 cut to a 26. Before I shot my target holder 9/4/17, out in the valley. -
I saw the interview with the WA sheriff brilliantly stating, "guns haven't changed, society has," and called out those who glorify violence using guns. It's just a toy...how do I know, especially in an adrenaline charged environment? Aren't all guns always loaded? Point you gun at things you wish to destroy? Know your target, which would be me?

I should have bought from Aim Surplus 4 years ago, hand select for under $400. Jealous.

Smith and Wesson announce Glock 19 sized M&P 2.0 Compact

It can't be, the CZ P10c is the Glock killer... I can't wait for the Kool aid fueled hate to begin on the branded forums. -

My buddy has been so impressed with the 2.0 in .45 and 9mm, he pre-ordered this one. -
Sweet baby Jesus, no... this can't be real. This has to be trolling.

"...moved the target to the left..." Nothing gets over his head, his reflexes are too fast. -

I'd try Numrich, I had success with my M1 carbines... -
Yes I did, staff was friendly and I casually tested them. "What do you know about it?" "What I read on the internet and this instruction manual, anything you know is probably more than me." Was a consignment, no wiggle on the price, threw in a complimentary TICS. Price was fair, I have a good idea of distributor price and retail 5 years ago.

On a serious note, I discovered this pistol when they hit the market 2011-2012. The differences from the original PPS-43 is redesigned to fire from a closed bolt and an inoperable stock. Based on the first test drive, I think I got a good one. Negative reviews included: a mis-aligned FCG, no issues. Loose safety, mine needs hulk muscles. Mis-aligned sights, I shot, kneeling, 7 yards, seemed on target. Other notes of interest: Sellier & Belliot is loaded hotter than PPU. It is satisfying to put it on the ground, hold it down with your foot to rock out the mag...stamped steel goodness. Do not keep with loaded chamber, free floating firing pin with no FPB. The funny wobble (my educated guess) is the huge bolt moving rearward, changing the center of balance. Without a stock, the oscillation makes it a novelty at best. I give credit to Pioneer Arms, mine is the 'second' generation with the non-welded stock. It is SBR-ready. Get the stamp, 5 minutes of dremeling on a single, oversized pin and it should be good to go.

I never thought I'd be writing in after all these years, but I have a new relationship. Today we did it 150 times and only had 2 issues. It's ok, it was in the first 25 times and we were just warming up. I was smiling and I think my partner was, at least, willing and able. Strange wobble when we did it, but it's the law of physics. Even though we just met, my partner does need some cosmetic surgery. It is not for self esteem, we don't care what other think about us when they see us. It will make it better when we do it.

Test fired today. Glad my potential buyer passed. Fun little pistol, though I won't be carrying it. 100ish rounds of assorted HP and ball. No issues with any of the ball ammo. A few FTExtract with the JHP and not one specific brand. Trigger is light, 3 or less. Comparing to my two CZs. The reset is short, perhaps too short for a self defense, adrenaline infused situation. I was surprised how accurate I was at 7 yards. It's definitely a keeper!
