    Books. Bikes. Boomsticks.

    I can explain it to you. I can’t understand it for you.

    I've had tons of people asking about the Curve. Usually the same people who ask about that spinning death whirlygig RIP ammo. Also "deagles."

    The gun business isn't about guns. It's about business.

    Ugh. RIP might as well be referring to the shooter. Nothing like frangible ammo to create lots of blood but not actually stop the attack.

    Somewhere I hope some poorly educated LEO isn't carrying that stuff just to watch it shatter against intermediate barriers.

    My boss bought a Judge and I had to act like it was cool.

    God forgive me.

    Don't feel too bad, I actually shot one. A friend of a friend had one, and since there's nothing like burning someone else's ammo I took my turn with it.

    I had a brand new Taurus revolver in my CCW class that was so out of time it shaved off the jacket and shot me in the face (standing 5' behind the shooter) with more lead and copper than it did the target.
    I won't even stand near someone shooting a Taurus much less shoot one myself.

    Unfortunately "I'll take people who like crap for $500 Alex" is a target demographic.

    Did you run home and shower with borax and a brillo pad?

    I know a town cop in nowhere WV, who carries an FN 5-7 and thinks its the greatest thing since bagged fertilizer. He is worried about bad guys wearing body armor in Rainelle, WV.

    I didn't have the heart to tell him the ammo he had would not do what he thought it would.

    That may be worse than a Taurus Judge but I am not certain.
