  1. First to admit I know absolutely nothing about opening and setting up a range. But that design, with pistol ranges pointing inward to other ranges gave me a bit of a shiver. Just my first thought. Good luck in getting started.

  2. Actually that was some fine MOI (methods of instruction) being displayed by the instructor.   He Asked the PV1 what the problem was. He Explained to the PV1 what the problem was. He Showed the PV1 what the problem was.   Then he safety got the PV1 off the range for I expect to be some additional training.    Well Done!

  3. From what I have seen lately I don't think many drivers are worth a crap. Most of them are fooling around with their Iphone or their droid or whatever device of the day is. Put the *&^% thing down and pay attention. Use the left lane for passing then get your butt over, use your turn signals for the way you have decided to go. Know the difference in yield and merge. I think most drivers got their license at wally world on sale!!! I'm thru for now.

  11. Since multiple folks have mentioned the number of casualties in past attacks, let me just ask this: what is an acceptable number? You guys all good with the number that we've already lost? You good with 25 a year? 100 a year? 3500 in one year and then about 100 total in the 10 years after that? Why are we talking like any number is acceptable? We are talking about people's lives, right? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  12.   I have talked to a lot of people that don't understand the concept of consent.  They seem to believe that once you have been detained, then LEOs can pretty do anything they want.  They think if you refuse a cop, then you automatically go to jail (or at the very least get a ticket).  I have tried to educate them about their rights, but the idea persists.

  13. Due to the weather and being busy to survive, I meant to post this a couple of days ago. This is a very good deal on Used Police Trade ins, BTW I know nothing of the retailer, order at your own risk: http://www.sportsmansoutdoorsuperstore.com/products2.cfm/ID/152691 [URL=http://s963.photobucket.com/user/runco0318/media/Deal%20Sig%20P229_zpsykem8c7l.jpg.html][/URL]

  15.   Then he should probably be in trouble for uploading a video of a trainee.  I wouldn't like to see myself or my son have the growing pains of basic training on the internet for all to see.

  16. Yes the first AR I've owned. Been shooting uncle sam's version for 11 years though. It's mostly completed my gun collection. I no longer have any other guns I NEED for specific purposes.

  18.   I also think the "cool factor" comes in when you have optics involved.  Red dots aren't a new thing anymore, and if you don't have one, it can seem like you aren't cool enough shooting next to the guy with an EoTech, or an Aimpoint micro.   Optics also let people think they are good to go right away, instead of focusing on the fundamentals.  I remember when my unit got enough Aimpoint's for everybody to have one, zeroing and qualifying became a chore, because people figured it would be easier with the cool toys and forgot the same fundamentals apply.  I would recommend all shooters learn the basics on iron sights, and when they are consistently hitting what they aim at, then they can add in an optic and go from there.

  20. Our son, who is finally back from Africa from deployment, came up with his wife and our brand new granddaughter on Wednesday. They where not here for 4 hours and the baby spiked a fever of 103.Off to the ER. Got admitted to Childrens. And she is still there..They think its a stomach virus. She is so tiny yet and it breaks my heart seeing her with a big ole IV and stuff. Son and daughter-in-law of course are worried to death. She isn't eating right yet, so another night in the hospital.We worry and it just plain sucks...She is soo sweet and right before she started getting a fever ,Gordon was just having a blast with her Looks like Grandpa Gordy needs a shave..lol

  21. Here are my last two builds. I favor the LMT or Rock River stand alone rear sights shown on these two rifles. They're the same good quality but the RRA unit is about 25% cheaper than the LMT. My AR's are set up for home defense and are zeroed at 25 yards with 55 grain Hornady TAP. I can still see well enough to score almost MOA groups at 100 yards from the bench with irons, so I don't see any reason to scope these guns just for 25 yard application. Suptayu, though. If you're using your AR for defensive purposes, heck with what anybody else thinks, go for what works best for you. This is a Palmetto State Armory build with added ALG ACT trigger and MagPul furniture. The rear sight is the LMT unit. This is a Spike's Tactical build of what I call my Short Rifle." I didn't want an ordinary carbine, so I merged a mid-length upper with the heavier government contour barrel and a standard A3 lower. MagPul furniture, RRA buttstock assembly and RRA rear sight, Geisselle SSA trigger. Testing the handling qualities of my "Short Rifle." It's a darn sweet handling rifle that I'm glad I built.

  30. Babies aren't nearly as fragile as they appear. She'll be fine soon. Hopefully you guys won't catch it. It might really be rough on you.   I'm always amazed at how quickly a baby can go from well to very ill, and then how quickly they recover.   She's a doll! That's for sure. :up:

  41. My method, place an empty case in the shellholder, raise the ram all the way.  Screw the die in until it just touches the case.  Back out the seating adjuster, place a bullet in the case and adjust seating insert to your satisfaction.  Then screw the die in approximately 1/2 turn, more for a tighter crimp, not as much for less crimp.  I only take the flare out on 9mm ...

  45. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT... PLEASE READ AND FOLLOW: Before posting announcements about upcoming classes or training, it is imperative that you use the following format or include the following information as bullet-point items at the head of your post. Any post that does not include this information may be deleted without warning by the Moderating team. Include the following at the top of your post: Name of Training Program or Course Name of Organization or Entity conducting the training Name of Instructor (if known) Cost of Training Your affiliation with the Org, Entity, Trainer or Event That last item is crucial and so is your honesty. If you are affiliated in any way beyond being a student or having merely stumbled across the training class in question and felt the desire to share it on TGO, state so clearly. Full disclosure is imperative. WHY? Because full disclosure is very important and because we have Vendor sponsors on this forum who have paid for the right to advertise their classes. We do not want to stifle the flow of information regarding good training, but we also cannot have people abusing our good graces by trying to fly under the radar and advertise for free. It's not fair to our Vendors and it amounts to stealing from TGO at a very basic level. If you are a student, feel free to share any information about upcoming classes that you might be attending. There are likely others who would be interested in attending as well. ***** If it is found that you intentionally withheld, misrepresented or otherwise hid your affiliation with the organization, entity, trainer or event being promoted, your post will be deleted, your account will be banned from the forum and the entity conducting the training might permanently be blacklisted from TGO as a result of your indiscretion! ***** Again, we do not want to stifle the flow of good information on this forum however we cannot and will not tolerate anyone trying to circumvent the Vendor program. Please help us by being honest. Thanks!
