I've been on here since 2005 and have about 25 posts. Not sure what the criteria of being "active" but I go through spurts. Often just seeing what's new or have a question. I'd rather have 150K lurkers than a 50k mixture of trolls and redundant question posers. btw, searching/googling a...

So, if it's daylight and some wacko is running at you with a machete and some friendlies behind him, do you simply shout "please don't hurt me"? No, he's going down, laser or no - friendlies or no. The rule, IMO, is that whenever possible DON'T point a weapon where you are not sure what is...

It's at my brothers and should be bringing it back Thursday. Don't have the original case and not sure where the manual is (I do have to find that). I was just curious if back then there were only the three. I know it's not the Sport and I think the Sport 2 closed the gap in the differences...

I'm on a FB AR page and was trying to explain what model I own. It is not with me right now, so no pictures or SKU. I also know there are presently a LOT of models, so maybe this can't be answered until I get my rifle back. However, back when I purchased it (right after the Sandy Hook scare)...

Feels like Christmas, doesn't it? Did you choose a red-dot yet?

+1 on the 642. It is so small and light and easy to throw in my pocket when I'm in a hurry going to Wally World. If I know I'm going to a bad end of town, I'll take my compact 9mm, but I find myself carrying the 642 more often than not. It's loaded with Speer Gold Dot 135 gr. Weight is a...

Sadly, many of us do not have the luxury of being able to carry while on the job. My company forbids it and I drive a company F-150 to a number of remote sites. I am not even allowed to have pepper-spray. A couple of my telecom sites are in not-so-good areas and I wonder if I could hold the...

In my 642 I carry Speer Gold Dot 135 gr +P

Yeah, like this which happened to me last month in Ohio: Dayton Cop Flunks test - YouTube My brother is retired LEO and I respect the vast majority of those who risk their lives every day so this was not a slam on LEOs as a whole; but the more power given to them by more government...

I dunno... I'd have to think over the breeding part... :-)

I hope that you do indeed move on to another church; and if that if you DO leave, that you write a reasoned letter to the pastor (and perhaps copy to some deacons/board members) explaining while you no longer feel led to attend. I have always appreciated/respected those I know, especially in...

Good for you and good for your old boss. I love my laser grip on my 642 and just received trigger guard laser for my Taurus PT 111 Pro. Laser grips are definitely a huge advantage for that vet. Great thing you did by providing a way for him to own them. May save his life someday.
