I wish they would have picked a Glock. And tons of federal guys who have no real shooting experience carry them every day without a significant ND problem. I guess it is nice that the serial number part is the fire control group. You can pretty much order a whole gun as spare parts.

Thank you sir. That's what I thought it was in reference to. http://www.capitol.tn.gov/Bills/109/Bill/SB1490.pdf Basically just removes the time frame for the training requirement.

Link?

I own both. I love the VP9. Head to head, I greatly prefer the HK. Better ergonomics (for me at least, ymmv). I also shoot it more accurately. However, I already have a bunch of spare mags, holster, and spare parts for the Glock. And all of the above are more expensive and harder to find for the HK. My every day carry is a glock 19. If they came out with a 15 round VP9 that concealed like a 19, I would switch. But the grip is just a tad too long to conceal well on me.

It's my best shooting pistol. If it were a little shorter in the grip, or I could find a holster that helped conceal it, it would be perfect for me.

Awesome looking blade! Just a recommendation to whoever ends up with it, use something like this for the lanyard... http://prefundia.com/projects/view/survival-laces/5043/

Most only carry an M4, from what I've seen. But some office types only carry an M9. There is a growing number that carry an M4 with a pistol as a sidearm though. For the most part though, at least in the Army, pistol training remains grossly inadequate.

I own both, and greatly prefer my shield. Better trigger, higher capacity. And at least for me, better shooting. (Not to mention that the shields are $100+ cheaper around here). Also, my 43 magazines tend to snag in the mag well, because Gaston's ghost hates me.

Or nomadic arms in Clarksville.

But to the original question, all the ones I've seen on vests have been with Molly. I've never actually seen tek lock in real life.

That Gerber is still the issued ALSE knife. It's pretty large, so mine mostly stays in my helmet bag, unless we're going somewhere where E&E is a possibility. I generally cary a small fixed blade Gerber in that little medical scissor pocket on my thigh, and a bench made auto in my pocket.

Not my cup of tea either, but I would like to take one apart to see how they made it work.

I agree that your fingerconnected to your brain is all the safety you need on a gun. I carry a Glock with a round chambered almost every day, and have never felt unsafe. I don't like needless safety features on a pistol. I think that they introduce needless failure points into a weapon, and also make some people over confident that their guns won't go bang. But if you can't deal with a safety under stress, you need some better training.

If you don't have the mental capacity to take off a safety under stress, it is probably better for everyone if you don't carry a firearm in public. By that logic, you probably won't be able to aim or ensure you have a clear line of fire either.

Welcome. Tennessee Gun Country on 41A has an indoor range. Another popular place to shoot is Golden Pond target range at LBL.

The 19 over the 17 for smaller size and concealed carry. 9 over 45 for increased capacity. Glock over the 1911, because they listened to the guys kicking in the doors.

The rubber ones are great for carry.

Apparently glock will be releasing some optics ready models similar to the S&W C.O.R.E. Really hope this pans out. Right now, just the long slide models. http://soldiersystems.net

A 2 year old absolutely can pull the trigger on most firearms. When I took my CCW safety class, there was a guy taking it through a court order after his 2 1/2 year old popped of a 45 acp out of his nightstand Glock.

If anybody would know better than to post crap like this with zero evidence or in depth information, it should be a nationally recognized firearms instructor. This is some arfcom level stuff.

Flagaged it

The early M&P 9mm's were known to have an accuracy problem in many guns due to the barrels. I haven't heard of it in a few years though.

Many of us grew up with the comic books. And they don't sell much Wolverine shooting gear.

It's head and shoulders above the Savage Hog Hunter. (As it should be for the $300+ price difference). Don't worry about the limb saver, it's a pretty soft shooting 308. I have the Hog Hunter, and a few of my friends have the Scout. I think you'll be more than happy with the Scout. It's a great little rifle.

Welcome! Another good place to shoot in the area is LBL. It's a bit of a drive, but generally a good group of guys out there shooting.
