FWIW, I've had the same theory for years now and came by it independently without knowing others had suspected the same.

FWIW, I've had the same theory for years now and came by it independently without knowing others had suspected the same.
The first lines of my response were specific to Critical Duty.
Our current stats specific to homicide: Criminal is down nearly 20% over this time last year. Justified is up right at 9%. Note this does include some that are pending official prosecutor turn down...
Fun song and we all know that guy:

One could wonder if the prevalence of concealed carry and the willingness to face shoot ne'r-do-wells influences those differences. They contribute to non-violent crime most certainly, car break ins...
Maybe of interest, maybe not.
During T&E for the 5th gen/ "M" Glock 17 I was provided with a variety of cartridges of different brands and bullet weights. With the 147gr bullets I could not...
Not really something I can comment on with much more validity than a random drunk on a barstool. About the only thing I can say is that unreported crime numbers will almost certainly go up as...
I'm well satisfied violent crime is down in my city. I don't need UCR stats to make that determination, given I can simply look at booking. Some level of crime always goes unreported, and I'm...
A lot of this info is already posted here and I'm going to be brief.
4" and up, current (I started in invest in 2012 as a detective, current a LT in Homicide) revolvers specific to critical duty...
.357 magnum from a duty sized barrel or up, I've yet to see one stay in a human. They expand just fine, but they keep on trucking. .45 and 9mm they expand and typically stay inside the person or...
That's why Japan is hot on it and it is a failure in the US even with heavy subsidy assistance.
Hydrogen only increases electricity demands, at least until some significant naturally occurring reserve can be located and exploited. Which hasn't been a thing yet and will likely be very expensive...
So now neither of us needs personal experience from the 50s to discuss it? Glad to hear it.
Of course it's a narrow slice, just read the quote I responded to: " I guess the question I would pose...
Do you think sundowner towns and vagrancy laws are a myth or do you think there should be zero discussion of historical fact once the last participant was dead? Either way, a ridiculous post.
Is my loved one white?
Do they go the right church?
Would they potentially fall under 'vagrancy' laws of the era?
Does this hypothetical city allow carry of concealed weapons today and/or...
I've long heard about this over specialization concern but I don't see it. It may be an educated class or urban phenomenon, but it's certainly not dominate in the circles I run in.
Post-COVID...
Garmin Fenix 5x showed me at 26.28 miles for the Bataan. I figure that's plenty accurate enough. Only time I see accuracy issues is with a lot of tight turns and switchbacks under tree cover.
Done. If you want a thread closed, though, it's best to hit the 'report' button instead of waiting for a mod to randomly wander in.
Yes.
Shortened version, a woman "trained" and equipped by her husband. DA revolver that was such a poor fit for her hands she used both trigger fingers to pull the trigger. (as in left hand and...
No, just happenstance that your post was last before the lock.
Reopened thread.
This is in General Discussion, meaning political discussion must be narrowly focused on the 2nd amendment issue. Not immigration reform, not general politics, etc.
Yup. An SCD is like a decocker. It's almost certainty not as urgent when it's time to use it.
Buddy of mine was in three, including one in a fight over a gun in a car. He carried a H&K lemon squeezer since he was carrying appendix/no-holster in his UC role. He never talked about his other...
I do remember the 43 having issues when it launched, but not so much the 43X. I don't doubt any of the testing but I've yet to have an issue with either RDS equipped or non-RDS equipped 43X nor have...
No, non-zero. As in some, but nearly zero. Magazine disconnect, zero personally but also a non-zero number if you include second hand accounts.
I've detailed it out more in other places, but...
