    Bartitsu Is Coming Back

    ^^^You mean, like a Karate Gi? :D

    11 yo with a stun gun

    I wasn't there, so I'll only offer up the obvious opinion that something has already gone sideways if an 11 year-old is running around with a stun gun.

    Automatic watch and shooting?

    I'm sort of in to watches (Omega 2254.5 on my wrist right now); depends entirely how the movement is mounted. Modern shock resistant watches will take a surprising amount of abuse. One of the more aggressive watch flippers I know is an honest-to-god career swim out of submarines, oft-times...

    Condition 3 with striker-fired pistol

    I sometimes carry my beretta M34 in condition 3... to the range, in the gear bag, with the eyes, ears and ammo. No way would I carry a defensive arm in con3. A good cane would be better in many scenarios. I could certainly see con3 of a Glock in the same situation as above; in the bag with...

    I've officially reached the end of the Internet...

    Hell, for that matter, this ammo used to be sold for something like 9-10 bucks/50 during the Ferris Beuller and Duran Duran years. But that's not the point. Before this last panic cycle, one could buy 500 rounds of that stuff from the same place for something like 165 or so. As far as I know...

    I've officially reached the end of the Internet...

    I'm not trying to rock the boat; this thing simply speaks for itself, across all levels of distribution.

    I've officially reached the end of the Internet...

    Look at this. Federal's classic 9bp, now re-packaged 20 to the box, for over a buck a round. Old timers here will undoubtably know why I feel this way. :banghead: http://www.ammunitiontogo.com/product_info.php/pName/20rds-9mm-luger-federal-115gr-jhp-ammo

    Heretic time. I don't own an AR am I the only one?

    ^^^Pretty much what schwing said. I don't plan on buying either a Glock or an AR unless people (at the state level, mind, we saw how national worked out) start telling me that I soon won't be able to, at which point I will.

    High End Revolver suggestions?

    Here is one heck of a collectable... http://www.outdoorchannel.com/article.aspx?id=16950&articletype=article On edit: maybe a bit *under* your budget, but what about a Manurhin MR-73? Check 'em out.

    considering sound when shooting inside a house

    I firmly believe that noise will end up being the younger generation's RJ Reynolds. We will look at hearing protection in 20 years in much the same way that we look at sunglasses and sunscreen now; we just have to armor up against our environment. Given all that, I have no problem keeping...

    The worst DIY custom handgun job

    Folks, I think I figured out at least the gunbroker portion of that poo-colored debacle: the high bidder must have been Gaston Glock... trying to get that damnable abomination out of circulation for good. Now *that* would be worth 575 any day from Sunday.

    If money weren't a factor...

    The 1911 is over 100 years old. I look at it this way: I love 60's pony cars and 70's muscle cars. This place down the road from me has this unbelievably well-preserved 72 roadrunner--in that odd green with matching vinyl/woodgrain interior and the original fat mags on it. I'm in love. But...

    The worst DIY custom handgun job

    Just when I think I've seen it all, a whole new level of stupid crops up. What's next for that Glock? Mexican AIWB carry?

    Which carry pistol to get?

    Point taken. I do like the later DS', myself. Heavier, but great ergos, and 6 shots.

    Do you OC or CC and why

    Largely this. 1. I'd rather a criminal find out about my gun at a time convenient to me, not him. 2. I don't advertise gun ownership either. 3. This, plus frightening the horses argument. Others can do as they wish, and I'm not bothered by other's OC in the least, but concealed means concealed...

    My newest purchase...S&W Model 12

    I've got Remmy's FBI loading in mine at the moment, FWIW. I'd be stunned if it wasn't spot on to POA with that load. I mean, stunned.

    My newest purchase...S&W Model 12

    I like the way you phrase that, "pro-grade defensive handgun". :D I agree about the buffalo bore. I wouldn't hesitate to shoot stuff like the 135 GDHP short barrel +P from speer though; that stuff is pretty mild, overall, and I for one will almost certainly run out of money long before I can...

    My newest purchase...S&W Model 12

    ^^^The very first air force guns had aluminum cylinders. Apparently, they didn't hold up to anything. A search of the net will reveal a thread on one or the other of these forums where a guy shot 1000 rounds of +P through a 2" 12, checking for wear and specs along the way. Thing didn't budge...

    Which carry pistol to get?

    Well, S&W themselves will do a complete action hone (not just a "trigger job"), overtravel stop and the cylinder holes for 165. You'll pay a decent chunk more for morganti, or C&S or Cunningham, and possibly less for a good local guy to do the same work--but not much less unless they're most...
