  1. I have seen both extremes when talking about detectives with there firearms. Some will never go anywhere without a firearm and some will take it out of a holster in front of whom ever and put it where ever. I have watched numerous officers take the gun belt off and put it in the trunk of there car before walking off from it.
  2. Did they close up? There is some sage brush blowing through the parking lot.

    9mm revolver

    The Taurus version has a few problems as they made the moon clips to flimsy.

    Remember in the holster search that a holster for a Glock 19 will 99% of the time work.

    Glock Question

    Glock Question

    The copper is the factory greese.
  9. Glock 22's are hard to trade off because there are so many out there because of the Law Enforcement crowd. Just be patient. Like new gun with NS, 3 mags should bring $475 fairly easy.
  10. I have a close friend who had one. She kept it about a year, which is a long time for her btw. She got it because her dad would not let her have a Wrangler or a H2. Everything you think will be bad with it is exactly what is bad. Honestly the gas mileage is about 16, and might be better with someone else behind the wheel. I rode in it some and was unimpressed with interior room, power, and handleing. It's fairly loud inside and terrible seating design and hard to work around them for carrying big things. Oh yeah the blind spots are the worst. Expect every want to be rapper and gangster in town to talk to you at the gas station. The leather seats cracked the first week of ownership as did the windshield, and both were replaced under warranty. The second time it happen they wouldn't so a week before trade in they paid to have them replaced. I actually thought the price was competitive with some of the other SUV's in its class and I was suprised to see that depreciation was only a few thousand from new to used in one year(21k miles).
  11. Not that it really matters, but does anyone else recall hearing that the "victim" was a tranny?
  12. The P250 is just, well, "special". You will not know until you shoot it whether you will like it or not. I wouldn't have a problem owning a P250 in 357sig as that in a Compact version is what a friend of mine has that I have shot. People that describe the trigger as long and smooth are right on.

    Tricked out Glocks

    I pocket carry my Glock with a polished barrel almost everyday. I sweat at work and get exposed to all kinds of corrisive elements and my polished barrel is rust free.

    Tricked out Glocks

    If you really want to chrome the barrel you could soak it for 3hrs in white vinegar and then rub it with something like mag wheel cleaner. A dremel really speeds it up to. It will make it about as chrome as you can imagine. I have done it to one of mine with no problems. I would just cut the grip myself by the way, just take off a little at a time.
  15. There is no capatability between factory Glock 22 and Glock 20 barrels/ frames. I have tried it but the chamber is actually longer on the Glock 20 frame. I never tried a complete Glock 22 slide on a Glock 20 frame as I believe it may work.
  16. It's a DSC w/8zone an d the cover flips down. I couldn't see any numbers left on it.
  17. Im currently with Action Alarms and it has been a good experience.
  18. I ll look when I get home. Current company just updated the existing 12yr old system-3door-1 motion/ no glass break, no window contacts, no smoke detector
  19. Mine isn't wireless but do you advise against the wireless?
  20. Thanks Dralarms, that is exactly what I was wanting someone to break down for me. When I have trouble with Action alarms here I will give you a call. Is it true a 12 year old system should be completly replaced? This is what the ADT guy was trying to sell me.
  21. Thats another thing, the price. I'm paying about $20 a month and I think ADT is about 30ish.
  22. It is a great pistol but I am so used to 9mm and 40 Glocks that a 30 just feels weird to me. I have tried two of them a standard and a short frame. Both of them feed 100% and shot great, but just can't quite get used to the extra thickness.
  23. Long story short I have a locally owned security system/company and I have talked to one of ADT's salesmen but I find nothing but bad things about ADT now. I know 20 plus years ago they were the best in the buisness and I am wondering if I am just not being fare to them or if all I read is true. Does anyone have good or bad stories about them?
  24. Word on the street is he is not very friendly to Police and Military.
  25. Put it this way, I went there for the first time ever looking for a deal of some kind, particularly a deal on a used deer rifle. I was told that when he had them, which was rare, that they were a deal. The owner with a dry sense of humor was not too welcomeing and seamed disturbed that I was not in the market for a "black gun". I made the mistake of telling him I was just looking and looking for a deal on whatever. I at this point had allready stayed my welcome. I guess looking for a deal is not accepted there. I get the feeling it is not a place to go if your not too serious in buying something. My good experience was going in there and looking at a used pistol and making a reasonable offer and he accepted. I did the paperwork and walked out happy. Like all good gun shop experiences should go. There salesman, If they don't have what you want they will sell you what they have. They just get too emotional. You can't sell to everyone that walks through the door.
