    How the 4 rules saved my skin-- OR-- How my Rock Island tried to kill my car! (AD)

    My RIA 1911a1 does something similar. If there is not mag in it, the hammer will drop if the slide is allowed to slam shut. It will not drop if the slide is racked slowly. If I have a mag in the weapon, the hammer will not drop when the slide is allowed to slam home. I always load it by...

    I saw this and thought it applied to this thread:)

    AR-15 or M4?

    Instead of buying one straight up, I suggest building one. With the money you save bu a Ceiner kit for it and shoot all you want. I built mine in about 1 hour with a small punch, a hammer, vise grips,duct tape, and a $5 stock-wrench.

    So according to him, if you are trying to stop a man from raping your wife or murdering your family, you are now a vigilanty out for some "street justice"?:mad:

    Need advice on carry pistol for my wife

    I vote Bersa. I have one. My lady loves it. I prefer to carry it because it is so comfortable and easy to conceal that you forget it is even there. On the plus, they now make a Thunder 380+ that holds 15+1 of .380. The Thunder .380 has a better trigger than a Walther PPK does, and it costs...

    My ugly new 1991A1 Colt, (Blood damaged)

    +1 on the "I thought the police deparment destroyed stuff like that comment". Was it a "murder" weapon, or was it a "used in self-defense" weapon? I think that if it were a true murder weapon, it would not be returned. If it were a self defense weapon and no charges were filed, then that...

    Home security system commercial is anti-gun

    This should be an outline for most Security System commercials. http://youtube.com/watch?v=aPQ5y9UzT28 Yeah yeah, I know you have probably seen it a dozen times, but once more will not hurt:p

    "911 Tape Captures Horror Before Fatal Shooting"

    I originally posted in the wrong thread, but this one is downright spooky. Glad that the lady was armed. This could have easily been one of the threads where we were wishing that the victim was armed in order to prevent her death...

    An extremely reckeless situational awareness exercise

    Go take out a warrant, He pointed a deadly weapon at both you and your buddy. Moron does not need a gun. Moron will get someone killed needlessly. Edit to add: Do that too then. Maybe he will respect what his father thinks.

    Home Defense

    Judging off of your story, you could go for a Winchester Shotgun copy like you used in the military. Aim has them for $200, and it should be very close to what you used. http://www.aimsurplus.com/acatalog/Classic_Model_1897_12GA_Riot_Shotgun.html

    Long gun for field protection

    +1 A Mossberg 500 with a 18.5 inch barrel and top-folding stock to keep it compact. Attach a sling to it, and it will be pretty easy to carry. 12ga is probably about as effective of a self-defense round as you will find, with multitudes of types of shells for different purposes. A...

    Harassment Or Cautious

    I think you should be able to have them charged with something. If you hold even a criminal you catch in your vehicle or house at gunpoint around here, I think it is an assault charge. Why should the same not apply. Imagine if one of them had some sort of involuntary muscle-spasm:cuss:
