I still wake up occasionally from a nap and am mentally stripping down an M60 machine gun. I haven’t broke down a real M60 in 20 years, but it doesn’t go away.
The stranger thing is I never have...
There have been few times that I felt less safe than La Guardia, circa 2018. One trip I counted six different armed agencies patrolling the terminal and immediate parking. One dropped metal cup and a...
Caveat emptor…
Unfortunately, the superb Steven Camp archive around the P35 Grande Puissant / High Power resides on the 1911 Forum. There is still a decent amount of posts, nearly daily, on new...
I hesitate to comment, but…
The scholarship and the last 20 years of the UK experience absolutely support the contention that a vast majority of risk is naturalized, not recent foreign emigration....
Thanks for noting this alloy frame deal. That’s a fair price and well under the inflated prices of late.
I have an earlier import alloy frame, presumably from the Belgian motorcyclists. Had some...
The Gen2s have $100 rebates right now.
I have a Gen2… Terrible trigger, MLOk slots are out of shape, etc.
Pics or it didn’t happen…
(Mostly I want to crib some ideas…. My 8yoa is forcing us to stock pile cardboard boxes to build a tank)
Not confirming or disproving any Tweets/Xs, but some Left Coast folk reportedly are doing Left Coast stuff....
Say what you will say, but this fellow is wearing a NASA hoodie.
He may may be legit rocket scientist (in training).

He was clearly smarter than me, as he obtained his Glock auto sear...
The 95% answer is Outdoor Research.
As was described earlier, gloves are tools. OR is the SnapOn Tools of gloves. And you pay for that.
Generally I have a liner glove and heavier over gloves for...
There has been an Austrian version kicking around for awhile.
It also is less Strike Industries in appearance....

The Brooks A Grip is soft for AIWB and excellent when wet. Really improved handling on both Kahrs and Glocks.
Will need to be periodically refreshed, but mine...
Recently tried several CZes at a rental range. Was thinking similar to the OP - classic 9mm that seems to shoot well. Worth having an example, especially as prices have dipped low.
I did not care...
To your point, this story is an unpleasant read but speaks to the human bodies incompatibility with rapid depressurization.

Thanks to BillSWPA for the posting. Excellent commentary too.
After reading, two overriding observations:
1) The decision was rendered in a sensible and balanced point of view. I found it...
We briefed today the anniversary is on Sunday.
Old Marv was a mighty shitty neighbor.
I am in large agreement with the comments made previously.
I have used two SMZes, mostly as movie theatre rigs or when I was dating as younger man (variation on Popeye Doyle, I guess).
A couple...
I am familiar with some of the existing legal restrictions for land purchase from my day job.
In the end, the legal context usually ends up being compelling government interest, leavened with...
From Washington Post story -
Ashley Catatao, a police officer in suburban Boston who said she was shot in the thigh by her P320 last year, said she no longer keeps a bullet in the chamber of the...
New Clip Draw?
I am intrigued.
There are some geometry compromises with most of the Clip Draw and analogues on the market. Is there something new in the future?
Chicago - Three Digit, Third Generation Smith.
UK - MP5-SF, Glocks and a G36, Metropolitan London
France - Beretta 92s and Whatever they call the SIG P2340, but chambered in 9mm. It had some...
Had a PM9 with DLC. That stuff was pretty nice as external coatings go. A bit slick, but less slick than it appears. Never had any serious issues with slingshotting a slide, even with gloves on.

Somebody with clearances is leaking stuff in this balloon fiasco. Leaking a lot.
In rough order of priority, I go to these sources when I want classified information:
1) Washington Post,...
Flight Radar seemed to be indicating the wandering balloon was about to get the Statesboro Blues.
Somewhere near Savannah GA. Moving at 28 knots.
