  1. I did some reading too. They all drain some battery power when they're turned off. I wasn't aware of that. In one thread, a guy metioned that the eotech guy called it sleep mode, not off mode. good thing i have onboard storage.
  2. The only real connection is the extra boldness of the thugs in that town. The shootout shouldn't have happened at all, since handguns are banned.
  3. Chicago is another planet. Someone with a brain would thing their disarming of citizens ain't working so well. Open carrying on a bike is probably one of the best places to do it. Much better than a movie theater full of bed wetters.
  4. It has some CZ like qualities. bet it winds up being a good shooter.
  5. You can't forget to turn the Eotech off. It has 4 and 8 hour modes before it turns itself off.
  6. ...or one of those 24 packs at Walmart. I like AA's because you can get them anywhere.
  7. Seems like the military would be raising nine kinds of hell about it. I was involved in fixing an issue for the SOCOM guys. It was a product that worked for several of the other combat groups, but had to be cleaned up for them. It wasn't a reliabilty thing. Their field testing kicked it back, we fixed it, and then life was good. Point is, they weren't in the mood to just live with the problem.
  8. If it drains the batteries when it's off, then it's a design flaw that can (and should) be fixed. No reason to use battery power for memory these days. Like I said, I store fresh batteries in my grip. I don't think they will ever get close to the life of an Aimpoint with their standard circle dot reticle, but they probably do need to work on their life. It's just too easy to do.

    New gun purchase

    Look at the new Ruger LC 9 too. Real concealable.
  10. Put extra batteries in your grip. I love my 512 so far.

    RUGER LC9

    Your video sold me on the gun. BTW... keep up the good work. I always enjoy watching your stuff!
  12. Peeled some of my roofing. Guess I'm done putting that of
  13. Yep. He's just muddying the water. Hopefully, his efforts won't be loud enough to sway the legislation at all.
  14. I really believe that its all just a dog and pony show anyway. There are people that win consistently no matter who gets elected. Those folks run the country, and the rest is just keeping us preoccupied with the BS
  15. Yep. I have a friend that's quitting at the end of the year. It's not the money... it's the political BS
  16. Still waiting for somebody to be targeted under the right conditions. Just killin' time until then
  17. I'm talking kill you dead toxic. EDIT: BTW... the gov'ment can kiss my old butt on the mandated light bulbs
  18. Not taking a stand either way, but don't meth labs have really toxic byproducts, even if they burn to the ground?
  19. No, other than the commie states that have always had it. Must be an internal problem at promag
  20. I'll be an optimist. I think constitutional carry may happen one day. I just don't think Lenny will be the one to pull it off.
  21. JAB is right. Kwik isn't going into a situation where all things are possible. Maybe you should start a thread on how many times some psychotic douchebag challenged the constitutionality of a law, acting as his own counsel, and won. He's gonna get his ass kicked. I think constitutional carry may come to this state some day. If it does, it won't be by way of a crusading nutcase.
