  1. very nice indeed !!!
  2. I have a Blackout I used to carry and liked quite a lot. I have switched to sog due to the way the clip mounts. its hides the knife in the pocket better. I liked the mini aegis but am currently carrying the trident model tf7-cp. being a truck mechanic my knives take a beating and both the Kershaw and sog have held up well.
  3. Civil disobedience From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search "Disobedience" redirects here. For the 2002 film, see Disobedience (film). For other uses, see Civil disobedience (disambiguation). Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was a figure known worldwide for advocating non-violent civil disobedience. Civil disobedience is the active, professed refusal to obey certain laws, demands, and commands of a government, or of an occupying international power. Civil disobedience is commonly, though not always,[1][2] defined as being nonviolent resistance. It is one form of civil resistance. In one view (in India, known as ahimsa or satyagraha) it could be said that it is compassion in the form of respectful disagreement In recent days I feel we have all seen the government implementing a system were by our rights and freedoms as American citizens are being eroded or outright taken away from us. The examples are too many to list here but attacks on gun rights to spying on citizens to targeting citizens for drone attacks are just a few. what we have is a total disconnect between the government and the governed. Those in power no longer govern based on what's best for the American people but rather what will keep and strengthen their own positions in power. The concept of America as a country of united individuals has been replaced by the concept of the have's and have not's. Throughout history we have seen this pattern repeated over and over both here and abroad. Nearly , if not every social conflict in recent times has involved the government oppression of their own or other people. This is clearly seen in the civil rights movement of our own country. There was a time that our own government denied basic rights and freedoms to citizens of African decent in this country. We all either remember or have studied the segregation that was the law of the land in the past. Finally one individual decided that enough was enough and decided to challenge the law of segregation. That person was a woman named Rosa Parks. One day Ms. Parks decided she had been subject to an unjust law long enough and decided to challenge the status quote. That decision started a movement that brought equality to a whole class of citizens in this country. I suppose there is a reason cliff notes are not allowed in most schools today as they never seem to tell the whole story. Would the cliff notes on Rosa Parks says she went looking for trouble. Would the cliff notes on Paul Revere say he went looking for trouble. Perhaps the cliff notes on our founding fathers, those who landed in Normandy on D-day or those in our military serving in distant lands today are looking for trouble. Perhaps a quick read of the cliff notes might allow one to reach this conclusion but when one reads the whole story we might reach a different conclusion. A read of the full story may lead to the conclusion that these people were challenging unjust and oppressive governments and laws. We can all just submit to the commands of government and become their puppets or we, as this young constitutionalist showed, start to challenge these laws and hopefully be part of the process of returning the government to the people. Each one of us must decide our own path in this conflict but we must not allow ourselves to condemn those who decide to be part of the solution.
  4. while i respect the badge and the law it represents this is just another reason i don't respect those wearing it. the driver followed every command given but still we see the intimidation tactics of the gestapo vented upon this young person. i would bet every Glock i own if the comrade outside the car had not seen the camera they would have found "drugs" in the car. Age profiling if i ever saw it. 
  5. [URL=http://s1275.photobucket.com/user/glock55/media/20121224_124756_zpscb0fc2a6.jpg.html][/URL] this is my set up for Mossberg 590 18.5 barrel with ghost ring sights 1) Ergo grip tri rail 2) tac star side saddle 3) stream light tlr 1 with pressure switch mounted on vertical grip. not the fanciest set up but very effective. also my son bought a Mossberg with bead sight and decided he wanted ghost ring installed. sent back to Mossberg they installed ghost rings free of charge. just a thought.
  6.   the kind I wish I had  :up:
  7.  So does this mean he's for this monstrosity or against it?   in the senators words YES and NO or MAYBE. hope this clears the senators position in everyone's mind.
  8.   like shouting fire in a crowded movie theater. our society cant function in a constant state on chaos and distrust yet that is exactly what reports like this create.
  9. as Raoul advised Glock 19 for the following reasons: 1) reliability second to none 2) available accessories second to none 3) customer service second to none 4) resell second to none 5) ease of maintenance second to none.

    Wire Walker

    I doubt he will bounce, probably just spread out evenly across the ground
  11. will the wonders of modern medical technology ever cease?
  12. this sounds like just another bunch of anti government BS. the director clearly states they had contacted those complaining about bad water for testing and all had refused. if they don't want to be part of the solution let them drink their bad water. Yes the government sucks at this time but I'm tired of hearing people complain about problems they wont even attempt to remedy. I can also understand the point that making false claims about water to create unrest in the population could be seem as an act of terrorism. for my part if meeting like this cant be posted in their entirety they should not be posted at all. give all the facts and information or leave it alone. 
  13. Glock 45, Really guys -----  Nobody can have just one!!
  14. thanks for the info. i will be out the look out for this
  15. [URL=http://s1275.photobucket.com/user/glock55/media/fat-trucker_zpsf2edfac0.jpg.html][/URL] this should give you an ideal on how the pre trip should be done

      ck out www.slate .com       shows how they only tell one side of the story
  17. this may be a dumb question but what does A-MERC mean?  I am fairly new to reloading but don't think I have ever seen that.
  18. When you do road test put seat belt on before starting truck if not auto fail.
  19. Do you know if you need a class a or class b cdl. The only difference is the type of truck you will need for the road test. I would try to hook up with a third party examiner due to not having the hassle of going to DMV. On the med exam your blood pressure cannot be over 140/90. That is the cut off for passing. If your on blood press med you have to renew dot card every year. Were i work the company pays for med exam. I think you can down load the study guide from DMV website. Good luck
  20. its really pretty simple : criminals carry without a permit ----- law abiding citizens carry with a permit                                       criminals who get caught go to jail ---- law abiding citizens who get caught go home there's no good reason to carry without a permit, the government already knows all there is to know about you
  21. that's the one I was kind of leaning towards. I see in the reviews possible issues about using in sunny and cloudy conditions. could you possibly elaborate on these?
  22.  I am looking to buy my first chronograph and wondered if anyone could recommend a reliable model for the first time user. I plan to use it for hand gun load development right now. I have looked at Brownell's and Midway but the reviews are all over the chart. Any recommendations would be appreciated and if you know were I can buy local would be a bonus. I'm in the Nashville area and like to buy local if possible.
  23. That's too funny, maybe I'll just start carrying one of each.  :rofl:
