Because we have learned over time, at the cost of some lives, that some of those tactics we thought were cool or "fair" got people hurt.
Didn't Clint Smith say, "If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck"?

Of course I just had yo try something new so I bought a Hogue Monogrip for my 66. I like the looks of the Altamonts and they fit my hands models. I just need done more traction in my grips.
Here is my 66 with the Hogue’s and new sights.I don't care for finger groove grips, and S&W factory grips don't fit me either. Actually, my Ruger Security Six AND my 1976 Colt Python factory grips didn't either.
You've seen pictures of my S&W 625. It has Herrett Shooting Star grips on it. My Security Six and Python wore them too. They don't make them anymore, but you can find them occasionally.

Agreed wholeheartedly! I never liked the feel of the things. I don't think that they're bad by any means. A retired Tucson Cop friend has his from when he was on the Department, he was one of the first to get one. It even has a three digit serial number.
But they don't fit me, I hate the trigger, and I don't like plastic. The only plastic gun I have is a Ruger LCP. If I could come up with another .380 that size I'd probably trade it off. I don't have any plastic holsters either.

A little early. Or, a little late. Depends on how you look at it.
THE best C Rat meal, bar none. And I'll fight anybody that says otherwise. No I won't, I'll just trade what I got for HIS Turkey Loaf.

Here's a diagram of Ruger's different gripframes. It looks to me like they sent you XR3 grips instead of XR3-RED grips.

If you're into leather work, ya could always make yourself a lace on buttstock cover with a pad. Even ad some material to extend the LOP.
A guy has this on ebay. Could be interesting.

Then point out that the same number are killed every day because of people texting while driving and they scream, "That's different! Phones aren't designed to kill!"
Then get upset that for something not designed to kill they seem to be good at it. Oh, and by the way, they're an invaluable part of human trafficking and the child porn trade.
In general, about 10 times as many people are killed in vehicle accidents than from being shot, and about 4 times as many people drown in backyard pools than from being shot.
But of course we all know that Gun Control ISN'T about guns, it's about CONTROL.

I'm of the opinion that they are still checked, but if they aren't what the writers are looking for they are often either ignored or "adjusted" to fit.
Lying is an accepted journalistic tool way too often.
3 minutes ago, Subdeacon Joe said:I think you really mean, "fabricating truth. "
No, I think that Forty is right, they lie. Now agreed, they fabricate a lot of what they lie about, but it's still a lie. And he's also right about WHAT they fact check. I'm of the opinion, (for whatever THAT'S worth), that they start out with the story that they want to report, and find, "facts" to support that story.
Here's one that they used to "report" to support Gun Control: They kept coming up with the "fact" that 12 children a day were killed by "Accidental" gunfire. But when you look into it, to get that figure, they had to include instances such as gang shootings, Police shootings, and suicide, as well as true accidents. They also had to count "children" as being up to 24 or 25 years old.
So yeah, they lie.

I would venture a guess that it's because that's what the "media" always does. The crime is ALWAYS alleged. Even when someone is convicted of mass murder, they won't call him a mass murderer. They won't flat out say he killed 27 people. They will say he had been "convicted of murdering" 27 people.

With single stack pistols I carry two spare mags, and with double stack I usually carry one. The probability of reloading after a gun fight only to get into a second one is extremely low and having one or two spares should also cover that event.
If that doesn't cover the %99.9999 scenarios then as Worf would say - it's a good day to die!
SC
Even with my single stack 1911 I only carry one spare magazine. I figure the probability of having to reload because of a malfunction is greater than running a magazine empty, and Bigmouth is pretty reliable.
Even with my NMV, I carry 12 rounds on a belt slide, more because I just think that I should rather than because I actually think that I might need them. (Also, people frequently ask what caliber I'm carrying and it's far easier to pull a round out of the belt slide to show them than anything else).

That's where the wall you have stuff hanging on ends and someplace to stack bigger stuff begins.

We have one. we got it to lessen the use of a deep fryer mainly due to my diabetes. That way we still have French Fries, Chicken Patties, etc. without the oil.
As for pizza, I still nuke it. The secret is to cover it with a double layer of wet paper towels. It comes out great that way.

Yes. They believe other cultures and races are not intelligent enough to know when they should be offended. They need to be told.
19 minutes ago, MizPete said:They've never listened. I was there from the beginning & I know. You can't argue with a person who's mind is closed.
MizPete, I think that you're misunderstanding what Smokin Gator is saying. He is saying that the white liberal women are telling "other cultures and races" that they should be offended by what other white people are doing because they, as "other cultures and races" are not intelligent enough to know when they should be offended, so those same white liberal women are being offended FOR them.
And you're right, you can't argue with a person whose mind is closed. But the people whose minds are closed are the white liberal women. They think that they know better than the rest of us. And no amount of facts and figures will convince them that they are wrong.

Just commenting on Mizpete's comment, not arguing the point but... white people have done good things too. Caucasians make up 16%(ish) population of the world. The airplane, car,medicine,computers, internet, communication, electricity, that is what I'm saying, no risk at all.
36 minutes ago, Subdeacon Joe said:Europeans/whites, including Slavs, Balkan, Greeks, and the Levant.
How?
Look around your house. How much wasn't invented by the above? How many medical advances?
Compare charitable and humanitarian works by European/whites to those by Sub-Saharan Africans and Asians. Oh, yes, people scream about COLONIZATION!!!! but, in general, that long ago colonization was a net benefit to those areas.
5 minutes ago, Rip Snorter said:If you ever studied Anthropology, the worst sins are cross time and cross cultural comparisons. Both together, you don't want to go there.
Okay, I thought that's what he meant, I just wasn't sure about the 16%.

Well, they seemed to have accomplished a lot only being 16% of the world's population
At some risk, I ask, Who do you mean, and how?

I have never fired one, but I did handle a couple at gun shows and they did feel awkward to me. I did want one anyway.
Nowadays if a gun feels odd in my hands I quickly evaluate whether or not I can change the oddity and if it doesn’t appear worth the effort I put it back where I found it.
A salesman at a gun show convinced me to hold one of these:
Photo from: https://www.smith-wesson.com/product/performance-center-model-460xvrI would have to say I think these and revolvers like them are just plain (bleeping) weird.
Awkward doesn’t begin to describe this thing, in my opinion.
I suppose that these "Super Revolvers" have a place, just not in my gun safe. And ANYTHING with finger grooves does NOT fit my hand.

PLUS ONE for Marshal Mo. After all, as speculators, "we" have absolutely no facts nor circumstances.
Agree 100%. But as a Marine I couldn't let the chance to make fun of the Air Force go by.

I believe that most casinos have their own chips. You couldn't go to another casino and use them. I suppose that you could cash them in at different times, but I'm not sure whether you could leave and bring them back. The most I even played was Blackjack, and trust me, there wasn't any chance that I'd need to report anything to the IRS, or my wife for that matter.

Never said that they're not good guns. I just don't like them.
