    I don't understand why no one seems to make one with a calf strap, preferably adjustable height, let alone on a high quality pouch that's breathable with comfy fabric & seams & with good elastic...

    Wow, niiiice...

    I had a very detailed and interactive conversation precisely along these lines at NRAAM in 2018 with a gentleman who's name escapes me, but I recall he was upper mgmt and involved...

    I would think one advantage to a sharp and stellate frontal shape is that for a given average frontal area and its resulting penetration depth, the larger max radius in comparison to a contiguous...

    I don't believe so. From what I've read and seen, aside from a new disconnector cut in the slide's underside (done in upgraded and new production guns) everything else is a drop-in parts swap. ...

    Any assumption that the following is relevant is certainly as baselessly speculative as anything else at this point, but I've always been uncomfortable with many SIG and similar striker blocks which...

    Oh, definitely. I made sure to set that aside early on in my comments. My questions are entirely premised on sobriety.

    ETA: Re-reading, I wasn't super clear of the sobriety premise... but yeah,...

    Still, that recklessness component seems hard to support. I could see perhaps that hinging on whether or not there was some nominal passive retention to the holster or if it was pretty obvious it...

    That doesn't seem to reasonably meet the threshold for recklessness as he didn't point the weapon at anyone (it fell to that position and needed to be retrieved) and for other reasons I explained in...

    In Texas (referencing TXDPD's comments), I don't see negligence listed as an applicable mens rea for assault, and even then the actual swipe at the gun causing the discharge under a moment of...

    What would the charge be? Doesn't assault require recklessness at minimum? And discharge offenses require intent, correct? If he was drinking, I would see UCW intoxication being workable, but...

    I recall seeing somewhere else that it's kind of a known issue with the stiffer-walled backstraps as they squeeze the sides of the frame more. I assume there's some variance from sample to sample,...

    So does this pistol have a crescent shaped "brass control cut" on the breechface lug opposite the extractor claw at a height corresponding to the unlocked/extracting state, like the P320?

    Does anyone have professional test data yet on the revised 147gr P9HST2 & P9HST4 loads? Really wondering how they're doing through 4LD and if reports of flashiness and lower velocities are holding...

    I don't see how expansion and penetration wouldn't change with shorter skives. And pics of water shot bullets comparing the old and new design definitely suggest a difference in expansion. Yes, I...

    Nanos have a history of borderline extractor grip. They can be very picky about ammo and parts swaps don't seem to consistently improve the issue. It's been several years since I've kept up with...
