  1. It’s just a tool to take criminals off the street. They are catching criminals that have warrants. But instead of an Officer checking individual plates he is using a computer that can do it much quicker. They are checking data that they already have access to. Catching people with traffic warrants might not be too glamorous, but catching a dangerous felon before he hurts one of your family members might be. Dangerous elusive people are taken down on traffic stops. If they have the technology to check a thousand cars as they drive by and pick out the ones with wants and warrants; more power to them. I would say though, that I would think it would keep the Officers pretty busy hauling people off to jail. I doubt it would take very long to get a hit.

  2. I am curious where the original five round plastic mag went along with the authentication sight target and manual and paperwork. I received all this with mine but Taylor did not which is what red flagged me. I personally believe Taylor was sold a used gun or a gun which they knew had an issue since rifle fire is allowed at their range I'm sure someone shot it especially since its from 2009. I was gonna buy another Arsenal but never again, I'm buying Krebs now. Secondly when did firearm warranty countdown start when it leaves the factory, I thought it started once transferred to a individual. And for Arsenal not to fix it, they don't stand behind their product. As for On Target I will never spend one dollar there.

  3. What government agent is going to be interested in tracking my travels, cell phone calls, computer usage, etc? There is NOTHING to see with me, move along folks! Also, where is the manpower going to come from to conduct surveillance on every US citizen? Will there be one government agent for every three citizens, five citizens? We would need to create a new government agency (bureau of snooping affairs?) just to watch everyone and staff it with 60,000,000 employees. I think some people need to loosen the tin foil hats.

  4. Someone messed up and someone needs to fix it, simply as that. On Target should be ashamed of their customer service and so should Arsenal.

  10. What does voting for someone have to do with trusting them? If you trust ANYONE you vote for, then you might want to re-examine your trust. Sure, you vote for the better of the choices given. But if you are not then also watching very closely, then you not doing your civic duty. Liberals would have you believe that voting is the end-all and be-all of citizenship. Wrong. It should be the culmination of a process of watching the candidates, voicing your opinions to them, asking the tough questions, and supporting those who get it right. And when the elction is over, you start the process all over again. Freedom certainly is not free, but the cost is a LOT less when people fight for it during local and state election cycles.

  12. It sounds to me like you are getting screwed from both ends, dude. Sorry to hear that. I'm curious to know if Arsenal suspects OnTarget has been using the gun as a range rental or has taken in in as a return or something like that. From the OP, it doesn't sound likely a shop would have one sitting NIB on a shelf with any reasonable kind of demand unless they had it grossly overpriced. Let's assume OnTarget has not been renting out this gun or letting employees shoot it and it really has been sitting NIB on a shelf despite demand for 3 years and it's not a return. Why drag your feet for 2+ wks getting it sent back, if you're sure you sold a NIB gun to someone? I hope I'm wrong, but it seems like OnTarget knew this gun would never be fixed free by Arsenal under warranty, so they didn't even try. I wonder what kind of story the OP would've been told a month later when it never got sent out.

  13. Simply extending the piece of leather to cover the back of the slide works fine. When you wet mold the holster, it makes the leather stiff. Here's what the back of my 1911 pancake holsters look like: I find you will want a sweat shield on most everything except for a hammerless revolver. The cylinder keeps the top of the frame far enough away from the body as not to require one.

  17. I'm a former LEO and if this crap were to happen to me I'd tell the officer that I ain't his momma so it ain't my job to make him feel better. He needs to get his panties out of a wad cause I ain't giving consent to search nothing.....Also, he'd better give me dang good reason for stopping me without a violation.

  18. You're right, two weeks isn't a reasonable time frame to have the rifle repaired. But it is well beyond a reasonable time frame to expect the rifle to, at the very least, be in The shipping process. On Target couldn't obtain a return table in 2 1/2 weeks, but he was able to get one within 1 day? That's uncalled for. Then the manufacturer informs him that On Target never even requested a return lable for his rifle. Again, uncalled for. I suspect if you were in his shoes, you'd be much less likely to be so nonchalant about the matter.

  19. this is promising: "We've got to take our role back as parents. We got to put our foot down and discipline our kids." but then Jonhson also says there needs to be more programs in the community for kids and parents means zero real progress after all. Always asking for government to do what the parents will not. Normal, nonviolent kids did not get that way from some government funded program.

  23. Yeah i am not believing the story. If a cop wants to see your permit you gotta show it. Carry is not legal in this state.

  24. I'd say that it's possible, but the officer could have arrested him if he refused to produce a permit. I have a hard time believing that the officer had enough concern about him toting a pistol but was somehow okay with refusal to produce a permit. Interesting.

  25. Only serious drinkers are going to be trading for alcohol so you'd best stick with something most serious drinkers like. This is Tennessee, so that's whiskey... Jack Daniels would be my choice to stock. All non-liquor drinkers, which is a LOT of people, would be more interested in trading for rubbing alcohol. It's far more cost effective as a barter item. As you stock up on liquids, add a few bottles of unscented Clorox. It's a great water purifier and if public water is off, it would be in far higher demand than whiskey or rubbing alcohol.

  28. Yep, happen to have 6 or 8 rat traps I bought. I figure between these and my BB gun, I can get quite a number of doves and pigeons right here off the back deck here near town. I also keep a 35 lb bag of bait (bird seed can make a little mound with over the trigger). Also thought to get some screw-in eye bolts to put into the wood to tie them, so whatever critter can't run off with them if not killed. A dove or pigeon could step on it and fly off with it otherwise. - OS
