  1. You will be able to tell more by the feel of the gun than a particular round count. Some manufacturers like Kimber recommend 500 rounds and some say that the gun doesn't need it at all. Youll be able to tell its broken in when the single action trigger is crisp, and the double action trigger is smoothed out. Just remember to strip it down and give it a good cleaning & lube before you shoot it. It could prevent alot of problems because some guns are shipped from the factory practically dry.
  2. Wood is also a preferred container material because of its fire protection/insulation propertied. If I recall correctly, the fire academy taught us that it takes fire 1 hour to burn 1 inch of wood. If you have 1 inch walls on your container it would ideally provide an hour of fire protection without breeching the walls.
  3. While I understand that correlation and causation are not the same, i have to respectfully disagree in this case. When gangbangers are wearing shirts advertising police layoff dates it makes me question your idea of a simple correlation. As someone who has studied criminal justice, it has been proven time and time again that police presence in high risk communities prevents small property crime. These occurrence of these small crimes leads to individuals drifting away from conventional moral values, and allows more crime to ensue. While this is a greatly simplified example of the the "broken windows" effect it still proves the point.
  4. Who knew that less cops on the street in high crime areas wouldn't be a good idea? Its going to be interesting what the warmer weather brings around. http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2011/04/newark_homicides_up_64_percent.html#incart_hbx
  5. Im in the market for 1000 180gr. fmj and am having the same issue deciding between the two
  6. Its only other competition is a glock 22 which comes in around the same price
  7. What would you guys consider a fair price to pay for one that's in very good condition with 1 magazine included. I was told the guy was looking for 400. Is that in the ballpark
  8. You do need to watch your grease though. If it gets alot of particulate in it, the grease then becomes a lapping compound which is a no go for slide frame fit.
  9. I was taught if it pivots or turns it gets oil if it slides it gets grease. I use weapon shield grease and oil.
  10. Ive coem across a sw 4006 for sale but have no experience with the gun. Does anyone here own one or have any experience with the gun?
  11. I like his videos that are specific weapon reviews. On the other hand im not a fan of some of his tactics videos that do seem to go on for ever.
  12. I own a px4 in .40 and have nothing but good things to say about it. Never had a misfeed with any ammo, no failures to extract. Its also very soft shooting due to the rotating barrel design.

    Ace Stocks

    So long story short I have an Ace Entry stock with a 1 inch recoil pad on the way to my house from JSE. Does anyone have any experience installing these? It seems pretty strait forward but any insight is helpful.
  14. John truly is a good guy and is more than willing to help you out with a transfer.
  15. what do you need done?
  16. Last I heard the apiero had a year long backorder period. If you were to have a double stack 1911 for comp in 40 s&w you ge the added magazine capacity with the ability to retain the major power factor. The STIs are a great platform to build a race gun on, many people I shoot with have gone this route.
  17. do you have anything on the 1911 platform? You may be interested in a double stack STI
  18. I remember that piece. This has that same aire of arrogance. As sad as it is none of this behavior surprises me. In one of my sociology classes I needed to take to finish my major, I had a classmate ask me in front of a 50 person lecture why I hadn't used any drugs. I responded by saying that I want a career in law enforcement and how was I supposed to enforce laws that I could not follow myself. He then proceeded to call me ignorant and closed minded finished off by calling me a tool being used by "the man". I deal with people like this writer every day.
  19. what scope are you planing to use?
  20. I seriously doubt it. From the article printed, they dont really seem interested in an opposing viewpoint.
  21. The m1 stock looks nice and seems to be good quality.
  22. My grandparents lived there until both of them passed away and my grandfather was high ranking in their police force. If he saw the way the town is now hed be absolutely sick.
  23. Nope im a graduating senior took criminology 2 years ago. Im annoyed but not surprised they wouldn't post my comment on the targum site.
  24. Im lucky, as a criminal justice major, because most of my professors are ex cops who are very level headed. As for my other major in sociology, lets just say we agree to disagree.
