  1. We're really not talking about fractions of cents... but sure. It's your money. Spend it how you want. As long as the OP understands there are MANY options for buying ammo online, then we're all in agreement. ETA: And just for the record, I have nothing against the Sportsmans Guide. I buy stuff from them all the time. Just not ammo
  2. Really? Then you internet searching skills need some work. I'm just picking one random ammo deal from the link you posted: http://www.sportsman...o.aspx?a=949833 1000 rounds for $218.47 IF you're a Guide member. That does NOT include shipping and as far as I can tell there is no free shipping deal going on right now. But, whatever, let's assume there IS a free shipping deal and the total cost is $218.47 to your door. Here's the SAME ammo: http://www.sgammo.co...-tmj-ammo-53650 1000 for $199.80 + $16.00 for shipping = $215.80 shipped to your door. Now, IF Sportsman's Guide is having a free shipping deal AND you're buying more than 2000 rounds, then it MIGHT work out that Sportsman's Guide is cheaper. But, generally speaking, they are WAY overpriced. ETA: and if you want a really good laugh, look at how much they're asking for GECO 9mm. Last time I bought 1000 rounds of GECO I paid $199 to my door (which, admittedly, was over a year ago). The guide wants $266? Hell of a deal that is ETA2: I have no affiliation with SGAmmo. I just used them as an example of an online retailer that is considerably cheaper than the "big name" retailers.
  3. Under-appreciated? What exactly has Scott done that should make us appreciate him more? Did the ANJRPC win a case I'm not aware of?
  4. Another vote for gun-deals.com. The good thing about gun-deals is that they factor in shipping based on your zipcode into your total cost, which really helps in figuring out who has the lowest total cost per round. For the most part AIM Surplus, Palmetto, SGAmmo, and sometimes Wideners seem to have the best deals in my experience... at least for the calibers I buy. You really need to buy in large quantities to get the savings tho. If you're not buying at least 1k at a time, you're really not gonna see the savings. Personally, I've found sites like Midway, CTD, SG, etc to have the worst prices unless you happen to catch a free or $5 shipping deal.
  5. It's replaying tonight (2/24) at 10pm, Sat 2/25 at 2am, and Sunday 2/26 at 9pm.
  6. Old thread, but there's some info here: http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/topic/20445-henry-survival-riflear-7/
  7. That depends on how you interpret NJ's definition of what constitutes a magazine. This comes up every time someone asks whether "rebuild kits" are legal in NJ. Some people say yes - some people say no.
  8. It's doesn't necessarily. Some pinned PMAGs have remove-able floorplates.
  9. 92A1s come with 17 round mags from the factory, or 10 round mags for ban states. M9A1s, on the other hand, come with 15 rounders.
  10. Another vote for Otis. Great kit to throw into your range bag That's a pretty neat little kit. Might have to pick one of those up.

    It's the hillbilly's turn to do a review:
  12. I got lucky this time around - the wife really got into the show this season and gets more excited than I do when it's gonna be on. Win!
  13. Seems like the premiere did pretty well (by NatGeo standards anyway) Source: http://www.cynopsis.com/editions/cynopsis/021312/

  15. I'm incorrect about what? I didn't ban them and I didn't tell anyone to not train with them. You Serpa guys are like a cult
  16. Good call - it is the same family http://www.independenceusa.com
  17. The Walther P22 comes in a couple pink configurations. http://www.gunbroker.com/All/BI.aspx?Keywords=walther+p22+pink
  18. To a large degree, yes. But, why exacerbate the inherent dangers of drawing a handgun from a holster by forcing the user to activate a lever that sits millimeters away from the trigger? Particularly when you can attain the same level of retention with a number of other holsters that allow you to use your trigger finger for what it was meant for... pressing the trigger... Anyway... If it works for you and you're comfortable with it.. cool. Enjoy.
  19. The big problem with the silo is that it's been for sale for quite a while and, as a result, everyone knows where it is.
  20. If you're asking me if I think Kyle Defoor, Larry Vickers, Todd Green, Gabe Suarez, FLECT, (these are just off the top of my head, I'm sure there are others) are unable to correctly teach students how to draw a gun from a holster, then my answer would be no, I don't think that's the problem. I do agree that the issue is largely with fundamentals... the problem is that if you combine poor fundamentals or even simply a momentary lapse in judgement with a serpa holster, then the chances of something bad happening increase. So, why take the chance when there are plenty of other good retention holsters that don't require the trigger finger to do anything? JMHO Oh, and if anyone has a light bearing Serpa, they've been recalled: http://www.blackhawk.com/replacement/
