  1. A year or so ago I bought some of the Oath Tango ammunition. I went back to their website ( here:http://www.oathammo.com/about-us ) and it no longer allows direct purchase and they've not responded to my inquiries. Does anyone know the reason?

    M1 Carbine

    i had two Inlands and gave one to my son. Great little guns and very fun to shoot. Enjoy.
  3. I bought a 250 2Sum with a Full size and midsize together using a single lower in 9 mm. I like the way it shoots but do think the trigger pull is a bit long. I prefer the traditional Sig DA/SA. A good solid gun, though, just not my favorite.
  4. I was just wondering what you think of it.

    Sig 226 or?

    I love my 226. I'd never let it go.
  6. I deal with police officers everyday. I have never heard of anyone ever being asked to do this. It makes no sense to me.
  7. Piers Morgan: “I don’t want to ‘grab’ anyone’s guns, or tell Americans how to lead their lives”   Don’t be fooled. Piers Morgan, CNN host and outspoken critic of United States gun policies, apparently doesn’t actually want to tell Americans how to live their lives — or stage any sort of gun grab. In an interview with Forbes, released Monday, the controversial Brit outlined his views on a variety of topics, including on what is perhaps his most polarizing issue: guns.     For the rest: http://redalertpolitics.com/2013/10/28/piers-morgan-i-dont-want-to-grab-anyones-guns-or-tell-americans-how-to-lead-their-lives/    
  8. A very good idea. Relocation to the South makes sense for most gun manufacturers.
  9. South Carolina Is Not Done Fighting the Civil War Feb 14, 2013 10:00 AM by Ilya Gerner | Comments: For the sake of everyone's sanity, let's hope the entire South Carolina state legislature is part of an elaborate historical reenactment intended to teach children about the pitfalls of states' rights. Otherwise this legislation, passed out of a South Carolina Senate committee, would be pretty ridiculous: At least they're honest about calling their armed mob an "unorganized" militia. http://www.indecisionforever.com/blog/2013/02/14/south-carolina-not-done-fighting-the-civil-war

    Sig P938

    I love mine. It only has about 500 rounds through it with no real problems even with cheaper ammo. I put Hough rubber grips on it and love it. It replaced my 220 as the everyday carry gun. Remarkably accurate for such a small gun and cycles Federal 147 gr +P+ rounds like nothing.
  11. They're both two of the finest firearms ever made.
  12. Tenn. police allowed to carry personal AR-15 rifles Joey Garrison, The Tennessean8:01a.m. EST January 15, 2013 (Photo: Alex Brandon, AP) Story Highlights Police can carry personal AR-15 rifles with inspection, training Currently, imited number of officers involved in SWAT and canine unit carry assault rifles AR-15 used in Newtown, Conn., and Aurora, Colo., mass shootings NASHVILLE -- In response to the recent mass shooting in Newtown, Conn., and others, the Nashville police department will allow trained officers to carry their personal AR-15 rifles inside their vehicles while on duty. "Deadly events across the United States over the past few years, including, among others, those in Carson City, Nev., Aurora, Colo., and Newtown, Conn., demonstrate the high-powered weapons with which criminals are arming themselves," Police Chief Steve Anderson said. "It has become increasingly clear that a pistol and shotgun may not be enough for an officer to stop a threat to innocent citizens. This policy change is in the best interest of public and officer safety." Under the department's existing policy, a limited number of officers involved in SWAT and canine unit assignments carry those weapons. According to police spokesman Don Aaron, the updated policy will allow officers to carry "personally owned" rifles inside their vehicles as long as guns are inspected and authorized, weapons aren't modified and officers complete a three-day course on patrol rifle deployment.

  13. They fit, snugly, in the two leather holsters I have for the 238.
  14.   I was talking to my son about the .223 round. The M1 in .308 was very common when I was growing up and absolutely fearsome round. All this knee jerk reaction is wholly irrational.
  15. I put Hogue rubber finger grips on my 938 Extreme and love it no problems since the first couple magazines.
  16. I use a Linksys E4200 and have been very pleased with its range and signal strength. When I started using my iPad in the back yard (The Router is in the very front of the house) I had a signal strength issue so I added a NetGear repeater, but even through the house, with aluminum siding I can still get router signal from the router itself about 100' away. I've been very pleased and impressed by the 4200.
  17. I wear a suit most of the time, but I've carried a 226 or a 220 for years in an IWB holster at 4:30. Good holster and belt are the key. I recently went down to the 938 and carry it the same way. With modern tuckable holsters there's really no problem even in most casual clothes.
  18. So there's a naked candidate with a chance for election and a clothed one with none. Great. I hope you enjoy another term for your current President. I'm not sure why you think my response to you needed to be responded to with such crudity, but OK. I'm no fan of Romney, but he'd be a world better than President Obama. I guess I live in the world of the possible as opposed to some alternate reality where libertarians are going to sweep into power and return the federal government to its Constitutional bounds. That would be nice but I don't see reversing a century of Progressivism between now and November. You may think that's what your fighting for but it appears to me to be a fool's errand. Romney surely would be the better than the current crew. Better is always better than as it is or worse. Libertarianism is on the rise, but there's no way on God's green Earth it will be electable before 2016.
  19. Then I suppose it makes no difference to you who is elected, so my question then becomes, Why do you care? If they are both the same and they are the only two with any chance, realistic or otherwise, of being elected, then why even start this thread? Look, even though I tend to be libertarian, Gary Johnson has no chance of garnering the necessary votes to be elected President. You are therefore perfectly happy with President Obama's re-election.
  20. I think the real question, Chuck, is are you happy with the current administration? If you are, then great, because anything that distracts from its actions or undermines the Republican nominee guarantees another term for our current President. I suppose the real question, do those who are unsatisified with the Republican candidate, but want the current administration defeated, have an alternative that stands a snowball's chance in Hades of winning? I think the answer is no.i am far more libertarian than Republican and, frankly,voted Libertarian in the last election, but I will do nothing in this one that will assist the current administration? The question isn't is Rominey my ideal candidate. The question is, is he better than the alternative?
  21. Maybe not a Terry stop but certainly enough to earn you a consensual encounter.
