I like Glocks for what they are. if I need another one, (already have 5) I wouldn't be afraid to get a Generation 6.

I was going to buy a TRP until I handled one. I found the checkering too sharp. It was like holding onto a bunch of needles. I ended up going with the Operator instead. Much more comfortable to shoot.

If you are forced to prepay for any leather work, furniture or contractor services, always do a charge back on your credit card by day 55 if they haven't delivered. That way you preserve your charge back rights. These types of businesses often stiff the prepaid customers when they go out of business, or the owner dies or has sudden health problems. Life happens but there's no reason you should have to pay for their mismanagement or misfortune.

Are the supposed to be insulting the Navy or Wafflehouse?

If somebody called the police because they felt threatened by me holding a gun and had me locked up, I might be tempted to make their nightmares come true.

I'd venture to say that most of these guns were inherited from Dad or Grandpa by some left-wing liberal who doesn't know what to do with it. Scared one of their feral children will get hold of it and end up in prison. Probably never fired a gun in their life and have no place available to do so. Getting rid of the gun is not near as valuable to society as getting the gun away from that situation. I don't have a problem with gun buyback programs as long as tax dollars aren't used to fund it. I have an evil junk gun that is waiting for a gun buyback program in my area.

I want to write the story lines. See how many political correctness rules I can violate.

Over the last 10 years, I've seen a drop in attendance at local matches by as much as 50%. Attendance at state matches seems to have dropped also but not as much. I suspect that a lot of shooters got caught without supplies during one of the extended shortages and never resumed when things changed. There are other reasons contributing to the drop in attendance; however, component prices and availability are certainly a contributing factor.

Now is the time to start building up a 4-5 year supply. That way you won't be caught short the next time something unforeseen happens.

Russia has been getting a lot of shells from North Korea. The quality control of the DPRK ammunition is poor at best.

I was 3 years old. All I remember is that they cancelled all the cartoons on Saturday morning because of the assassination coverage.

I'm from the old "blow in my hat" days. That was from before the alcosensors and standardized sobriety tests. Back in the dark ages, we had an intoximeter that had glass ampules that the suspect blew into an you measured the light passing through the glass ampule to get the alcohol content. Of course, the light meter had a dial which was very "adjustable". We had implied consent warnings that we had to read to the suspect. That card changed so often, you had to put a copy of the card you read with the case file. As the penalties for DUI increased, the lawyers got involved, the intoximeters improved and got way more complex and standard field sobriety tests were adopted. I was actually pretty good at the "blow in my hat" test. The deep lung air of a drunk has a particular sour smell. In the case of a serious traffic accident, the Accident Investigation Unit would respond. If the suspected drunk driver refused the test, they would draw up a search warrant and have the hospital take the blood and/or urine for testing. .

I have a Mec 9000, which may be similar. If I get a stray piece of shot in just the right spot down in the mechanism of station 1, it will distroy empty cases as fast as I feed it. Take the collet crimp part apart and check for stray shot pellets.

Drill holes in the hard drive and soak it in salt water for a week. Let's see Abby recover anything now.

Yes, flour. It gets everywhere and contaminates everything. There will be flour all over evidence bags, in Crime Scene units, on Crime Scene Techs.

If you insist on using a semiauto and throwing brass all over the place, at least get a sack of range brass and throw that around too. Make sure it's the same caliber you are using. Throwing flower all around the crime scene is good too if you've got time. I should write a how to book.

If you use a revolver and don't leave your brass lying about, you can then just take a chain saw file and scuff up the last inch inside of the barrel. That should take care of any ballistics they might run. And don't leave those nitrile gloves laying around either. They have your DNA on the inside and gunshot residue on the outside.

There are so many more things to think about when you plan on shooting someone these days. DNA (hair, skin blood) Policing up the shell casings Fiber evidence from your clothing (or trunk carpet) Cell phone tower records (These record cell number, date, time, gps location and update several times a minute) Local tag readers (Cities love these) Witnesses (always been an issue) Doorbell cameras and security cameras at homes and businesses

Fingerprints are pretty fragile. A good wiping will destroy any usable oil impression left by your fingers. You don't have to completely remove the oily impression. Just smear it. I'd still recommend using a revolver. Much easier to leave a clean crime scene.

He did shoot a lawyer. Can't be all bad.

I've got a bridge for sale for just a little more.

I'm thankful for all those people who bought them 30+ years ago and just put them back in the closet. I've been told that the street price was just under $200.00.

I use any and all brass. The nickel plated might split sooner than all brass cases. I wet tumble and inspect EVERY piece of brass before it goes into the reloading bucket. I reject 2-5% for minor cracks, squashed by Bigfoot or something just looks ‘off’. I think a good inspection is way more important than culling perfectly usable nickel brass.

Scarlett sells a contraption to hold the bolt and extractor so you can get that tiny pin back in. Works great. After installing the new extractor, you may have to run a file along where the extractor and bolt mate up to relieve some interference. When you put it together, you'll see where the extractor may sit above the bolt and interfere with the receiver.

STS works the best for me and Gun Club comes in 2nd. I reload mine also and like the hulls for reloading. The SliX shotshell checker is always on my gun cart. Worth every penny. I check every shell before they go into my belt. I quit using AA several years ago because I was getting so many that wouldn't chamber check.
