  1. Oh dear. I hope I didn't start too bad a trend. I changed mine and felt justified in doing so because I changed the tagline underneath so people would know who I am. @felinesNfreedom, I'll admit, I at this point have no idea who you are...
  2. Seriously enough, I laughed 30 seconds straight, out loud.
  3. Dang. You've found me.
  4. Only have one, the rest are mostly Glocks:)
  5. No, but that doesn't mean it isn't true.
  6. I'm just making a public notice, I changed my name to GlockSpock. I used to be CZ9MM. I'm still the same person, just cooler.
  7. I don't often make it up to Knoxville, but I might could make something work. I'll PM you if so. See, what you describe is what has me a bit hesitant. Practice/training is everything, but I definitely want to try it out before sinking $500+ into a setup. The Trijicon I would want alone is that. I'd hate to do it and then decide I don't like it. I may check a local range that has a few rentals to see if they have some sort of setup to try.
  8. I'm looking for a buddy in the Cleveland/Chattanooga area that wouldn't mind me shooting some rounds through their RMR equipped pistol. Preferably, it'd be a Glock and/or Trijicon, but really anything would do. I just want to give it a go before I sink a lot of money into building a good carry setup. I've read that red dots on pistols make most people slower because they are trying to place the dot on target. On one hand I could see this being true; On the other hand it seems like with training it would be negligible. Also, if anyone specifically has a Glock 19 MOS, I'd love to hear your input as to whether the MOS is the way to go or if getting a regular Glock machined is the way to go.
  9. Got mine today. Flipping love it. I couldn’t believe just how small it was when I opened it. Found out it has a strobe mode, if you want to enable it. Not 100% in love with the controls, but they’ll do. Waiting of course on the Squared Away holster. A coworker wants me to get a Knightfall Customs because he says it will get here within a week. That is tempting.
  10. Are the chips on your shoulder difficult to carry? I suggest we respect existing members. Our Shoot is greatly considered one of the smarter members here.
  11. So I’ve suddenly been bit with the desire to place an RMR on my carry gun. My first thought was to get an MOS 19, but considered considering other options. Id prefer to stay Glock, but am open to perhaps a Walter PPQ, CZ, or other. Requirements: Must accept Trijicon RMR 9mm Glock 19 size 15+ capacity I do think the MOS 19 is my choice but open to arguments.
  12. If this was sold domestically at a price under $20,000, I would seriously consider buying one.
  13. CV-1 Surprise...
  14. Hey...on the Zulu, it is difficult to tell from the pictures on their site, but does it have a full body shield or does the kydex stop at the same point on both sides? I ask for two reasons. Primarily, I'd like to get an MOS and stick a Trijicon on top. I think the "stock" Zulu will allow me to do that. I did post on the notes though that I'd like to do that anyway, so they should ensure theres room. If there is no "body shield" (index coming all the way up the rear of the slide portion between your body and the gun), it should work. But, without a "full body shield", is it comfortable? I could see serrations, etc digging into your skin. Just curious.
  15. 100%. But since the couple had a much different world outlook than you, in their opinion they were not being selfish, or reckless for that matter. And my point was only that the couple themselves seemingly were not "bad people". Yes, it was reckless and foolish, but ISIS is the bad guy in this scenario. I just try to view things like this from the standpoint of "what if it were your brother, or your friend, or your coworker", wouldn't you at least feel sadness that they LITERALLY JUST DIED? Sure, it was foolish. But my point earlier was who hasn't done at least one foolish thing in their life that could have killed them? It doesn't matter if it is "tiny foolish" like driving without a seatbelt, "medium foolish" like driving while buzzed,or "mega foolish" (riding a bike through ISIS territory). Any of those could cost you your life in the right (wrong) circumstances. Since these people were not the actual problem/evildoers in this scenario, I feel sadness that they died.
  16. Thanks. Although I'm not too sure how sincere that is. It was more of a "thanks for making me do that, that was $200 nearly". You know what I mean. Bought the Streamlight and ZULU. Figured it'd be an interested thing to compare to my Raven and X300. Hey... At what point do the established, involved, well respected members start getting a monthly gear allowance here on TGO?
  17. I am glad you know that I didn't mean it respectfully. It isn't that I don't "get" anything. I'm thinking of it like this and from this standpoint. Generally speaking, if someone isn't a criminal with ill intent, I try to care for everyone. I noticed there were many people in this thread that were basically saying "I have no sympathy/they got what they deserved/etc". Did they make a foolish mistake? Yes! I don't disagree against that. But I don't think it is wrong to pity them, feel sorry for them and their families, show compassion for the situation, etc. Many people here are claiming that they could care less since "they deserved it" in certain words. I brought up the reckless mistakes part to hopefully just cause some introspective thought. People do stupid things everyday, most of them don't have to pay for it with their life. These people could have been anyone's friend, coworker, or family member. Although it was unwise, I personally feel as if a lot of the responses here were awfully cold/hardened against them because of their world outlook.
  18. Oh yeah, should have known, the guy from the podcast. Looking now.
  19. I mean this very respectfully, but I'm very glad both of you have had your entire lives together, have never done anything reckless...period, and would never make a stupid mistake that could put your life in danger.
  20. I was simply saying that to "deny sympathy" seems harsh. These were not "bad" people, just people who thought differently than most here, believed the world was a safer place than it is, and although their actions placed them in the situation that killed them, I personally still feel sad for them.
  21. It seems Raven Concealment no longer makes their Phantom or Phantom LC. Sad. Like, literally heartbreaking.
  22. It's been a long time since I've bought a holster. I might be willing to give it all a try, though. Good holster for Glock 19 paired with this light?
  23. Curiosity, what makes this your favorite? I have the Surefire X300 Ultra (original, 500 lumen version). I like it, but it is quite a bit larger than the above TLR-7. I see it has excellent reviews. The idea of a slightly smaller light appeals to me, it would translate to a shorter and slightly thinner carry package overall. $100 is a good deal, but I'm not completely sold...yet.
