All this talk of survivability after being shot reminds me of the old saying "most people shot by handguns survive, most people shot by shotguns do not"
Powerful story CSC. Stories from the field are always more convincing.
True that, or even the 7.62x51. I really don't know which is more likely to be seen on the battlefield (between the 51 and the 54R, is there a 52?)
I read that part of the article and really did wonder. I didn't have much to go on though, I've never been shot in the head, you guys are making sense though.
Seems to me, if you took some of the plates out of the 7.62mm proof vests and formed them into some sort of polygonal shape around the...

The article speaks mostly of the potential for developing one and what technologies they use now. Interesting enough. There wasn't a gear section, so I stuck it here.
Well gentleman, and perhaps ladies, if there were any present, I really do appreciate your input/info. I really was not trying to stir up up a hornet's nest just for kicks and I wasn't trying to generate ad revenue, as one poster put it. I have learned volumes from this community over the...
Yep. A '68 Chevelle is a bad a** ride, but next to a new, say, Intrepid, (or whatever, pick a model) is a maintenance --deleted--, (I have no idea if --deleted-- is no no language on THR anymore, it's in the bible, delete if "offensive") not because the original Chevelle design was flawed...

I didn't really know if any single action type semi auto would be easier, or more capable of shortening the reset. I wasn't trying to compare it really, just wasn't sure.
Actually, the tap, more than likely, wasn't necessary, I did need the rack though, which left me a few rounds shorter...

The link bds provided puts things a bit more into perspective. Whereas the TTAG (the truth about guns) article read more like a <deleted> off consumer that got lied to and couldn't get his money back. That 10-8 article reads more professionally. Both convey the same points.
...about forming opinions about either. I'm not in the "if you've never done it, you don't know jack about it" camp, so please, take that
and *paraphrasing* push it violently. :)
Just what is it that you're doing then?
I never said I thought the article was gospel and no, I'm not...
...not even close to a rant. I tried to preface my link with some positive comments about the 1911, but still got "smacked down" by a 1911 fan boy *rolls eyes*. If you read the comments on the blog, the author gets peppered with similar, backed up by only the repliers opinion, comments.
My...
This article is a bit of a jaw dropper, but I really can't find much reason to disagree with him. I like the 1911, I really do, but I've never owned one, I've never even shot one. I've shot my Grandfather's Luger, that he "picked up off a kraut", but never the 1911. Nevertheless, the 1911 has...
I was watching Shooting USA on The Outdoor channel and a segment came up giving tips on successfully navigating uspsa events and it reminded me of a similar event I had been to. I borrowed a friend's Glock 34 and noticed during the competition, probably 6 or 7 times, I would get a false reset...
I'm not wound up, I just try not to get caught up in mob takeover of proper terminology, and/or grammar :D i.e. clips, machine gun, irregardless and multiple forms of abuse of contractions and their, there and they're.....:evil:
I try to use proper terminology when referring to anything tech related, guns included. Which is the correct term for the sound deadening 'can', suppressor, or silencer?
When I hear suppressor, I think of muzzle brake for a 1911. I've heard some people on here call silencers suppressors. I...
