  1. I have one which came with the field stock, (no pistol grip), finally got my hands on a pistol grip stock. Much better and easier to handle. Especially when getting older. 😉
    You can shoot this shotty all day with no sore shoulder. Like shooting an AR.

  2. Welcome to the club.... Was fun when I went to the hospital and showed the front desk what happened. Took the knuckle of my index finger right down. She almost barfed when I let a lil blood squirt. Many scars over the years. Still healing right now from CTS hand surgery. Just a lil ways down from where yours is on my love line or whatever they call it. lol

    No problem. I'm glad you had luck because I've not had success so far getting my info to go through. They made this difficult to get an exchange. 

    Haven't heard from them yet. But yes, their confusing web forms are little weird. Got to see how they handle my purchase which was a gift card from Amazon...
    Guess I'll stick to Fenix...

    What's really cool is you are free to go get more training, which is a great idea by the way, without government mandating it or even dangling a carrot in front of you to urge you on.

    Maybe I'm missing something here and I read it all. There is nothing saying you cannot get more training even now. But ya aint getting it for free.
    Go get as much as you can handle. There is plenty out there to be had.

    I think this bill is just worded wrong and could care less about it. I've been carrying for decades before I moved to TN. I carry now 99.25% of the time. I haven't really had any desire to go somewhere where I am not allowed to carry and could care less. In fact, haven't even ran across any.

    It's pretty much a known fact that gun folks that are deep into this hobby could outshoot most leos.... But difference is they have to shoot under stress while we play with just targets.
    LEO's jobs are just that. Most I know do not carry off duty because to them a gun is just a tool like a hammer is to a carpenter. They wear it all day and when they get home, everything gets dumped in their edc tray or wherever. And yea, quite a few suck at shooting.

    We don't need this dumb bill., We need the proper wording of the recent constitutional carry just passed. That would probably resolve the bulk of the problem. If there was anything to worry about, that should be something to be concerned. At least we are getting trained or practicing in one way or another. The new no permit needed carry bs should concern everyone. I am not against it. But I know people will just go buy a gun, tote it and know jack about it. 
    A year or so, a kid I know just bout his first gun when he turned of age with the enhanced permit. Good on him. He couldn't hit the broad side of a barn at 20ft. (It was a Performance Shop S&W). I told him I'd take it and see if it needed to be adjusted. The gun was spot on. I broke it down and it was filthy. I told him take a course and learn to clean his weapons. He couldn't take it apart or figure out how. He had this tall guy there that kinda looked like Trace Adkins. He couldn't figure it out either and was looking to add to his collection. I don't own any S&W at that time and they freaked when I broke it down in seconds. Big guy said, 'you see that? he just did it with one hand'....
    Point I'm trying to make here is it seems we are clamoring about it - (the proposed law), giving us some sort of leo advantage. It's bs, we don't need it. Someone is looking for votes. Lets get what needs fixing on the current laws and start voting out these rinos that do nothing but try make names for themselves.

    Some of the places I travel through has no one living near it for miles upon miles. Extremely remote, thus no cell signal. 

    While I always carry, there may be a time when I'm too injured to hike out 5-6 miles until I reach something or someone. This is what I'm trying to prepare for, not to chit chat on a radio to someone living in another state. Unless she's female, of course.....................    😝  

    Not just someone living nearby. Also, if there is another mobile unit roaming around. Anyone that can render you help.

  6. My HMO is any port in a storm. When I go to the mountains or just anywhere outside civilization, I take -a- radio. Regardless of whether used or not, I can't help but wonder what would happen if I didn't take anything. Someone may not hear you, but there is at least a chance someone will.
    Quite a lot of areas I roam have no cell signals. As cheap as radios are today, even the knock offs, it pays. I have a Pelican case for trips. In it, set of GRMS WTs, VHF/UHF WTs, scanner, patch cables, antennas, spare batteries and chargers, CB, etc. I have my radio licenses in order as well as bear repellant and bells.
    I think you stand a better chance. It would suck if you had nothing and got stranded.

    At the risk of coming off as an even bigger dick than the two of you, allow me to share some mothers  wisdom:

     

    If you've got nothing nice to say, shut the fck up!

    Relax man.... It's called putting a lil humor in before it goes tits up. Sorta breaks an argument before it happens. By you saying this makes it worse.

  8. Sheesh. Thanks for your service.
    Young minds I think suffer the worse. They are like sponges. I have things that pop back into my head when I was 18 working for the squad.
    My first sight of a young couple murdered with piano wire and tossed off the side of the road. I tractor trailer driver jack knifing through the windshield and a lot of gray matter on the highway 10 yards from the body. Just to name a few.

    When you're young, your mind is more absorbable than as we get older. We get desensitized, probably due to Hollywood but seeing it for real makes for bad memories. There really was no quiet space or support you can go to for help. Ya sucked it up and say nothing or try to tell a friend.

    My boy got blown up in the sandbox by an IED. He survived with many surgeries to his lower legs. But that does not stop his story from making me cringe and not sleeping at night without crying.

    I don't wish any of these types of memories on anyone. Today you can talk to people. That's a good thing. Back then, talking to your buddies that served with you, if you talked at all was hard because they had their own ghosts.

    Stay safe. We are here.... we'll listen.

  9. Easier to just keep your records/receipts and log them. I use an app that logs everything. Its backed up to offsite server and I also paper copies of all weapon transactions in the safe. Decades of transactions..... KYA

    So, should be SOP in some form or another.

  10. Have a 7KW Generac and a 2021 Ford F150 Powerboost with 7.5KW built in Gen....... Hope never have to use them... with the truck, got a full tank what would last a loooong time past the Generac... I really want to get a whole house Genny.... 

    This is crazy... I left this crap back in NJ over 3 years ago. lol.

    I'm not sure why that's so over priced when you can get them from HK for less than $300. And they're in stock as of this post according to the HK usa web store.

     

    ETA: I guess that's so expensive since it's 1/2×28 and factory is M13.5×1 LH.

    Maybe... But HK Parts site is always expensive. If I were to get a tb, I'd get the 1/2 x 28 so I could swap my supressors.... Rather not deal with adapters...
