A pirate walked into a bar, and the bartender said, "Hey, I haven't seen you in awhile. What happened? You look terrible. "What do you mean?" said the pirate, "I feel fine." "What about the wooden leg? You didn't have that before." "Well," said the pirate, "We were in a battle, and I got hit with a cannon ball, but I'm fine now." The bartender replied, "Well, OK, but what about that hook? What happened to your hand?" The pirate explained, "We were in another battle. I boarded a ship and got into a sword fight. My hand was cut off. I got fitted with a hook but I'm fine, really." "What about that eye patch?" "Oh," said the pirate, "One day we were at sea, and a flock of birds flew over. I looked up, and one of them s**t in my eye." "You're kidding," said the bartender. "You couldn't lose an eye just from bird s**t." "It was my first day with the hook."5 points

Yes. The treasure is the greatest of all. The ultimate sacrifice that an ordinary man has given to his fellow Countrymen. His body was mangled or lost in time and cannot be identified. To be nameless is to not exist. The sentinel guard is the very least this Country can do to honor those that have given everything for the rest of us to carry on. Even though they may be nameless, their service will never be forgotten. I believe we will guard that tomb, as we should, until this Country has fallen.4 points

I have no shame in admitting that every time I read and think about the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the Sentinels who stand guard, I weep. I weep for the sacrifices made, and I weep for a nation that no longer values the liberty those sacrifices were for.2 points

So true, and it keeps getting left out of the story. We all know they're the best in the world, but we don't even know the specifics of this story yet. Two guys were holding off dozens if not hundreds of terrorists with the weapons and ammo they had on them for nearly half a day. By Woods and Doherty keeping those people alive, they removed any possibility of the propaganda's success - because there were people on the ground that could now tell their story instead of it being cooked up for political purposes. Normally I don't get worked up over much stuff, but this incident really burns me up. When we were in Bosnia/Macedonia you didn't run away from the building if a fellow soldier was in trouble. Everyone person in the area moves towards them as fast as you can laying down fire as fast as it would come out of the barrel, killing every thing that moved between the two points and you sure as hell didn't need to wait for clearance from the base to act. They just left all of those people to fend for their own lives thousands of miles from home on sovereign soil, it's reprehensible.2 points

For a while I realized that I needed (wanted) a railed 1911 to instruct with. I've had several folks shooting railed 1911s during low-light training and I like to be shooting the same type weapon as everybody taking the instruction. I've never really like the "looks" of a railed 1911, but the SIG just seem right to me - - - maybe its the slide profile. Thanks to forum member "jcoosi" who listed this TACOPS in the for sale section, I now can say that my need (want) has been satisfied. I'm impressed with this SIG TACOPS...., this coming from an old-school Colt guy. They are IMHO the most undervalued 1911 on the market right now. The only dislike I had was the grip safety. The shape of the OEM grip safety's upper tang has an edge that cuts into my thumb using a high hold. After a run of training I'd have a blister on the inside of my thumb joint. One day while doing a detail cleaning I was looking at the SIG's tang and it sure did seem to have the same cut and shape as a Kimber. So....., I had a spare Kimber grip safety in my parts box and figured, while not give it a try. It was a Drop-In! A little bit of fitting, a safety function test, and after a few hundred rounds - - - No More Bite from my SIG! Some of you might think of this as blasphemy, putting a Kimber part on a SIG, but Dang - - - Even the Finish Matched! These are the other mods that I have done to this TACOPS. - Novak rear sight with "Super Wide" .170 notch. - Harrison Design Extreme Service Trigger, Medium. - Cylinder & Slide High Grip Wide Extended Thumb Safety. - Ed Brown Double Diamond Checkered Cocobolo Grips. These parts are found on most of my other 1911s. I'm not a big fan of having an ambi-safety on the 1911, yet I found the stubbie one on the SIG to be worth trying. After running the gun for a while, I found engaging it with gloves on to be an issue for me, thus back to my normal C&S safety. I have John Harrison's trigger on all of my 1911, most being the short one. With the TACOPS I'm trying the medium trigger since I found the OEM supplied ERGO grigs to be thin. Even after installing the trigger the ERGO's thickest just didn't feel right, so I installed a set of the Ed Brown grips. The "Super Wide" Novak rear takes into account my "seasoned & experienced" eyesight.1 point

I'm guessing that even if Congress in their ineptitude were to strip funding for this, that our soldiers would still find a way to honor the memory of their brothers who never came home - even if that meant doing it on their own time and finding another way to pay for it. I'd certainly donate to the cause.1 point

I don't like him because he is intentional inflammatory, and he comes off like a douche. If he would have labeled that video, "tips for buying your wife a defense weapon" and then proceed to his points without the "your an idiot" attitude, I say his teachings would be better received.1 point

I am generally not a fan of Yeager and for the most part do agree that he comes off as a tool. However, this video does not add to that opinion. Countless times I have said the same thing that he did to customers who come in trying to buy the woman in their lives a gun. There have been times where I had to basically tell the guy to shut his pie hole, because the crap coming out of it was going to get his wife/gf/female relative hurt or killed. The only thing he said in this video that I disagreed with was defaulting to a shotgun for HD purposes. Though if a shotgun is going to fill that role, I do agree that a 20ga is a better choice than a 12ga for the reasons he stated.1 point

I've got Vickers magazine and slide releases and I like those a lot. I have a Gen 3 19 that has a captured steel guide rod...I can't tell that it does anything over the plastic stock one. Of all the mods that I have on my Glocks the undercut trigger guard is by far my favorite. A undercut on a 19 can make a huge difference in the grip. Your fingers fit between the grooves instead of riding on top of them. Here's a pic of a 22 that I did for a friend of mine today.1 point

I have one gun with a thumb safety. On the nightstand or off body, I put the safety on. If its in my holster, on my body, the the only safety is my trigger finger. My Glocks are my preferred carry. Only use the trigger finger safety.1 point
-
I don't consider safeties as a necessary feature for responsible gun owners. For the types of people that look down barrels and finger twirl with their drunken buddies, absolutely. The only pistol I have with a safety is my 1911, but that is required due to the SA design. DA pistols and revolvers don't need safeties.1 point

If the post office was to "privatize" in the full sense of the word and be allowed to operate for a profit like a private business, you would be paying 2$ for stamps and 50$ to mail those flat rate boxes. If y'all get bored sometime, research other countries mail systems and you will be thankful we have what we have now.1 point

here's a link to a good review of Devil's Cut http://sourmashmanifesto.com/2011/07/18/devils-cut-review/ Devils's Cut has a smooth oaky sweet taste that goes down softly with no bite at all until later when you have had too many shots.. Very easy to drink straight up. it's better than some of the more expensive bourbons that I have tried.1 point

I couldn't disagree more. Tritium sights are fool-proof, as long as you swap them before they are depleted. Flashlights and weapon-mounted lights fail when you need them most. I prefer and use both, but won't count on either. A good set of night-sights is an absolute necessity for my defense guns. I factor it into my purchase. Personally, my aging eyes prefer the green/amber or green/orange combinations. The contrast really helps picking up the front sight in quick shoot training, without giving up accuracy at range.1 point

That voter i.d. crap really eats at me. Even if someone were using voter i.d. as a means of suppression, how difficult would it have been to get a freaking state issued photo i.d. over the last four years. Even If the cost were $100, the lazy, irresponsible bastards have had four years to save $100. There is no excuse! Some things are just too stupid.1 point
