  1. I suppose it does depend on the application. These RMRs have a small glass area, so why block half the site picture with buis. At least on a rifle the buis fold down out of the way. If you don’t trust the dot to the point you want a buis, then why the dot at all?  I bet your subconscious isn’t even using the dot and instead you are double aiming with the buis, eye muscle memory slowing reaction time. 
    I just see it as an either-or, using irons or electronics. A man with two watches never knows the time. 
     

    Back to the OP, I tried the DeltaPoint before going with the Trijicon. While I liked the larger glass of the Delta, the triangle was too large. Note also the sides are wider than the slide. And I noticed distortion of the triangle in the side edges of the glass. The Trijicon dot was perfect crisp in the entire glass window.

  2. Same, I always keep 3 cases of water rotated in the closet anyway. There is always construction going on and you never know when they may nick a water main.  Same for power. I have 3 propane tanks I rotate for my grill. My inverter runs about 20 hours per tank. Plenty of power for the fridge, window ac, tv, and swap plugs for microwave etc.  The propane doesn’t go bad, doesn’t gum up the genny, burns clean, runs longer than that micro sized gas tank on the inverter.

    Warning- I am planning on putting my house up for sale early next year so plan on the real estate market collapsing just prior to that. Just another part of this states impending implosion....

    Since I moved out 3 years ago, my old neighborhood values have dropped ~$40k (older area in southern somerset county).  A lot of the big pharma players have been moving out, the jobs are not there to sustain the prices.

    129,000 may sound like a lot; but it doesn't even move the Walmart meter.

    Agreed, there are over 100,000,000 Walmart customers.  This is at most 0.1% give or take. Then again, Publix caved to a handful of protesters over donating a few thousand to Republican candidates. (of which I made a large return of product back to them and stopped shopping there.)

    There are several Wallmarts that don’t sell this already, like in NJ. So how many of these signatures are actually from free states?

  5. Was thinking of a Taurus 692, it’s a convertible 357mag/9mm.  Has nice specs on paper with non-fluted cylinder and ported on the 6.5” barrel. 

    How is the quality of the newer Taurus revolvers?  I heard customer service is abismal, so hoping build quality and beefiness for it eating mostly hot loads are excellent enough to not need going back to the factory for issues.  Especially as the cylinder arm removes entirely for the caliber swap. 


  6. Isn’t there a side spring for the firing-pin-trigger-block?  There is that metal loop that needs to pop to one side so it depresses the plunger. You can open up and crush that loop depending on the timing. Check the Apex site for adjusting their trigger, it’s the same bar.

     ....  That would leave the people in the older 43 camp at a complete loss, but progress rolls.  That way new buyers would be able to choose either the 43X or shorter 43SX and have versatility of both mags with the 43SX.  

    It would seem that the original g43 adopters are left in the cold. So progress for me was dropping glock in favor of a P365. Even with the new p365 models, the features are all backwards compatible: slides, grips, even the new factory 15 round mags fit.  Was there a substantial fallout from glock over this?  I only know of 1.
