  1. I feel that it is rare for any level of government to "get it," do good or do the right thing. This is one of those very rare occasions. https://www.upworthy.com/the-health-department-was-called-on-a-teen-s-hot-dog-stand-its-response-was-wonderful?c=ufb2&fbclid=IwAR1CJkipdzhrkspmiWqwtVAM1ziVpDNaKuT0xvao9jml0jbMiA4IqCynTrQ

  2. When I was six my father was attacked in our neighbors kitchen by her much larger ex-husband. My father reached for anything he could get his hands on and found a 1 liter returnable glass Coke bottle. I can still see that guy stumbling out of that kitchen with blood everywhere. Later my father sat me down to talk about it, this is all I remember of what he said... ”Son, there’s no such thing as a fair fight.”

  3. I like that "Last year we saw tens of thousands of students nationwide take to the streets to demand action...." Tens of thousands out of the population of 325 million. So lets say 65000...or .02% of the population. Just as a comparison, there are estimated to be 251,000 Amish in the US. So should we all turn off our electricity? Stupid people pushing personal agendas and firing up those too lazy to think for themselves.

  5. As I believe TGO David is suggesting, this and all other activities by the Enemies of Freedom should be vigorously opposed. Just because their efforts have failed in the past doesn't mean they always will. Remember that the first "assault" weapons ban passed, and its supporters would love to see it back in place. Remember also that the administration of our current president, who was once a gun-grabbing Democrat, has already imposed the bump stock ban. They are not our friends.

  10. I don't know if y'all are familiar with ZEV Technologies but they have been making a bunch of Glock accessories for years. Well now they have made their own pistol. It takes a lot of their Glock parts and uses Glock mags but looks like some amalgamation of a Glock and Sig P250.

  12. I also ordered enough parts to build another pistol and they are all here. Had a un complete side charging upper. Now I am now on the hunt for a non anderson lower. The hunt is not going well. I should have bought more than two lower a year and a half ago. Everyone charges 50 bucks for a transfer fee so there is almost zero savings ordering online.

  13. I found the shockwave brace to be more of a hindrance and it didnt match the magpul furniture, so I threw a plain pistol buffer tube and called it a day.

  14. Imagine the boom to our economy if a small business's biggest concern was whether it was pofitable --- not whether it met all of the tax and legal burdens. I'm not advocating for zero laws and regulations regarding business...I'm advocating for almost zero laws and regulations regarding business.

  21. I recently ran across a deal(at least I think so) on a Colt Gold Cup National Match 70 series on another forum that I belong to. I've always wanted one in 70 series and passed on a few due to the price($1200- $2000 plus) this one I got for $850. I checked the serial# on Colts web-site and it showed it was made in 1981. The slide to frame fit is tight with no movement or rattle, has the original box(has seen better days but it is original to the gun) has a collet bushing and it fits tight to the Bbl. front strap has the vertical serrations, original grips. I haven't had time to put some rounds down it yet, but hopefully soon. Here are a few pics.

  22. I'm not sure why this should be a sign of the imminent demise of western civilization. There's absolutely no need for teens or anyone else to know how to use a rotary phone, these were analog devices which are no longer functional, as the phone companies moved to digital transmissions years ago. Rotary phones are a technology that has no discernible use in the modern world, it's akin to expecting somebody to know how to make a mud and wattle hut ...

  28. Sure. Just not in time for you or me. Frankly, I'm about ready to quit paying attention to any of it. If the newer crop wants to fit into the world of toxic masculinity, it's up to them. Worse things than dying, I reckon.

  33. Yep, in turn more profitable businesses spend more money, at least part of it in the community. They hire more employees too. Those emplyees pay taxes via sales tax and/or income tax. So the ripple effect goes on. In addition this promotes successful young people who grow up to be the next generation of community leaders.

  36. Don't exactly remember when I bought my first XD. I do know it was my first "plastic" gun. I bought it even before my first G19. I still have the XD, with a CT pistol grip laser wrap that I bought at the same time. It's sort of chunky with the laser grip, but shoots very well. Wish I still had that first Glock.

  38. Its mostly correct. Shouldering a brace does not change the classification of the firearm. However, installing a brace with the intent to shoulder it, is still illegal. Its difficult to charge someone with it since intent is difficult to prove, but much easier when people post about it on the internet.

  39. Absolutely nothing wrong with the old XD pistols. For $300 that might be the best "deal" going for someone looking to get some extra protection or ad a caliber to their collection. Good for them. +

  40. At $299 this is the best and most reliable "trunk" or "truck" gun you can buy brand new. People talking about the Security 9 and the Taurus G2 but fitting the trunk gun category but I think the XD is more reliable than those others.

  43. I had an early XD 45 a long time ago. That thing felt like it was a tank and never had a hiccup. I always was fond of the XD series despite abandoning it. If it didn't have the grip safety I think it would be a little more popular. $299 is a sweet deal for a solid gun.

Clearly though, once you have one, you have to get a complete set. I have a hard enough time affording Ammo as it is, can't imagine what I would go through...
