The Shield is an excellent pistol. It appears much larger than is really is but shoots like a full size gun. And yes, new guns traditionally come with a little extra oil on them.

I have some issues with these two quotes from the article. Why was quote #1 even in the piece and why are teenagers any more special than anyone else as implied in quote #2. The punks got what they deserved. Hopefully the "good samaritan" will not be charged but this is California after all.

Romney is looking better this week but there is still a month to go. Have not seen anything yet to make me believe he will win.

Of course they endorsed him. They have to endorse someone and he's the only Republican running.

Especially when slung tactical style, upside down, walking out to change targets.

I just threw up a little.

All those fancy machines and high grade steels mean doodly-squat without experienced and conscientious craftsmen putting things together.
