Yet, some Spec. Forces people I know that now do tactical pistol training for LE and civilians count on the auto forward ability of just about any modern semi-auto pistol to get sights back on target as quickly as possible. Just saying. :)

Clean with Break Free CLP and wipe dry (as dry as possible). Shooter's Choice FP-10 before reassembly.

I like what Marc has to say about avoiding trouble. In fact, as a CC holder, you are even more obligated to avoid those situations. It's common sense even without CC. When I go into the city, I don't go outside of the lakefront, Streeterville, Michigan Ave, The Loop, The Gold Coast, or the...

Ammoseek.com gives you comparative prices all on one website, and then you can link to the individually websites. I never buy anything anywhere without going at least to this site to check around on current prices.

Have a good, safe trip. Bring water...it's going to be a hot one today. :)

Why do I love Chicago? Too many reasons to list...sports, food, museaums, art, concerts, lakefront, and a lot more. My dad's family lived on the west side, it too changed. Heck, my own suburb is changing (over tha past few years, an increase in home invasions, murder, robbery, assaults), but...

Jc, Maybe you can tell me what I CLEARLY don't understand... I said I am angry about this activity I said that is happens in all big cities and Chicago is no different I said that IL needs to get real with its gun laws and join the other states in the US I said I am not going to let fear...

Great speech. Let's hope they got the message. (There is always hope... :o )

I live 30 miles west of Chicago and go downtown a few times a year along the lakefront, Michigan Ave., and the museums. Like any other big city, you have to be alert and watch what is going on around you. Don't stay in Millenium Park past dark, and if you decide to walk back to the train...

Thanks for all the replies. I think I will get through the next couple months of IDPA matches in my area and then plan out the best time to send it in for repairs -- all depending on what kind of turn-around time that they can approximate.

hb- Match was fun. Scored top 25% in terms of total time, but a bit lower in terms of accuracy. Got to work on that. Thanks!

My Blade-Tech has been very good to me.

So, got back from an IDPA match this past Sunday and I was cleaning my MP9 FS and I noticed that the right-hand tab for the slide release had broken off. The internal part of the slide-stop mechanism is all there, and the stop works fine, but the tab you would push to release the slideis just...

Yes, my MP9 has shot reliably. I can also add the following ammo to the list that has gone through without any problems (all 115 gr): Federal Champion Speer Lawman American Eagle Blazer Brass Federal Hi-Shock (9BP) non +P Happy shooting! :)

I don't see a spot on my safety like you have described. All surfaces appear properly "finished."
