Grand Juries and DAs change, so does one's location such as out of state. Bad guys pick the time and place. Control all factors that one can; choice of ammo is one of those choices. Premium ammo cost is minimal vs. attorney fees.

stored in a dry controlled area, should be good. I am using Unique for pistol loads that is at least 12yrs old.

I would suggest that the HP argument is very weak as you presented. Easily defended, by the LEO use and prevention of shoot throughs.. FMJ are subject to needing more shots, more risk plus the concern for shoot through and additional criminal/civil liability. Keep in mind FMJ can shoot through 9 layers of drywall. I would urge you to attend and document training that discusses this and other issues.

Reciprocity would be an issue. Would eventually see the ECP having some additional privilge, as a way to encourage usefulness and training.

love 1911's .....hate the problems, thus carry M&P shield.

hopefully I will never have to experience actual performance in my reloads. Yes, I have a few hundred rounds of reloaded XTPs. but I will trust the factory results and buy in kind. Carry what local LEO uses or FBI recomendations. Those tests will stand in court if necessary. Won't invite or create a rabbit hole for a prosecuter.

Chris has done two of my slides and several for friends. https://vidcustoms.com/

not always practical. Some have children and must go to school functions. Some enjoy high school games, concerts, etc. Post Office is also a no go for firearms.

Range USA had the same ammo for $10. I was headed to the local shop until I read the fine print (Houston, TX) Limit 3 boxes

I suggest that he is gripping with the thumbs, and there should not be any pressure on the thumbs at all. If the grip is firm there should not be movement to slap the thumbs, especially in 9mm. Probably best to get with a good instructor to help. Will save experimentation and possibly developing a flinch that will be problamatic. I'll check the RangeMaster roster to see if there is one in your area. I know there are several in Nashville.

Chinese "weather" balloon floating over the US

I've just ordered a case of assault balloons before Biden outlaws them. -
Look at pictures of any of the top shooters' forearms.....they are tight with well defined muscles. This is from a firm, very tight grip. Maximum force short of tremor. This is the most easily repeatable grip. One cannot consistently apply 'lighter' grip. To help maximize one's grip, the small finger on both hands has to be really in play as well. Shake hands with someone using and then NOT using the small finger. Grip strength is almost 20% greater when you make the small finger really work. This also helps prevent milking the grip and pulling shots....mostly to the left. Additionally, if you don't really clamp down with the support hand, your gun has less left sided resistance and will tend to migrate to that side. After good rounds of practice, either dry or live, your forearms should feel some fatigue due to the work required for grip. Also keep the thumbs loose, another common cause of pushing the gun. Consistent thumb pressure just can't happen...leave them loose, flopping in the wind so to speak.

am I mentioned in the will?

I'm a big M&P fan. If you don't plan on any after market upgrades, then PC is a good choice. If you plan on after market upgrades, go standard 2.0, Get Apex duty or comp trigger and Apex barrel. Very reliable and will last a long time. If you are going to add a dot, don't waste money on hard sights. To complicate matters, Don't overlook Canik.

Nope, but some states frown on people carrying guns.....probably the same ones. -

i would be very leery of carrying a product that resembles a gun. -

Early on Branca carried Sabre Red. Small, convenient and has multiple spray capability. I have canisters available at front door, autos, at work, and usually in pocket. According to stats, 5x more likely to need it rather than firearm… plus generally not a felony and mistakes easily rectified. Handy when walking dogs. From personal experience, works well on one bear I used it on. -
Nice buy. If you really get bitten by the sporting bug, look at the 725 30” bbl.

A300 beretta outlander. Semiautomatic will soften some of the recoil. I believe they come with shims to reduce lop if needed. Will last for many years.
-
not suprising and one should avoid carrying a firearm if that's the case anyway. In fact, illegal to do so in TN.

poly coated bullets would be a good alternative to Lead cast. Seems to me that a jacketed soft point would be a good choice.
