Old Glock guy

There are nearly a million more Dems than Republicans in NJ. I can't see a Republican winning a state-wide election ever again.

I'm thinking of taking the trip out to Gunsite Academy for their 250 Pistol "Gunsite Experience" class. (They won't let anyone take their more advanced classes, regardless of prior training.) Anyone been there?

I think you nailed it with that! A lot of their opposition is fleeing, ensuring a permanent Democratic majority, much as has happened in California.

Second the MCARBO mods. I have the 9mm version that takes Glock 17 mags. I tried the Midwest mount for my RDS. It's a clever design that swivels out of the way to permit the gun to fold, but the retaining bolt kept loosening up, and the gun would maddeningly not hold zero. I currently have a QD mount on there (whose name escapes me), which can be removed and replaced while holding zero. I'm going to check the MCARBO mount that you mention. I found it virtually impossible to get my head low enough to use the iron sights. When I was able to get my cheek against the stock, I ended up with an ugly bruise. The red dot makes a huge difference.

Sounds like we were from the same era. That was my experience as well. I always had guns as a kid, western guns, snub nose detective revolvers, golden gun mini-replicas, and the like. I once thought about bringing my snubby to school concealed in my shoulder holster, but thought better of it.

Nice work Ant! You represent us well. Your fighting spirit should be an inspiration to all 2A supporters.

All I know is that I turned 67 a couple of weeks ago, and while I'm still in pretty good shape, I'm running out of time for this to happen.

Sam J, here's what I know: GFH: I've taken all their classes multiple times. They are about 15 minutes from me, so quite convenient. Their instructors are knowledgeable and good guys. They present solid training info in manageable blocks of time. They can be slightly pricier than some other places, but IMHO they are well worth it. S&T: I've trained with Joe only once. He seemed pretty good. He brings a strong background in LE, and his prices are reasonable for a full day class. TTC: Scott and his crew are good. I've taken two or three classes with them. As much as I like short training blocks, their classes are only two hours each, as they work around the range schedule. That makes it challenging for me, because I have an hour drive to get there. If I were closer, I would train with them a lot more. I've never trained with Vickers, but I've been up to Sig Sauer Academy a few times, and would highly recommend them. If you would like further info, feel free to contact me, either here or by pm.

Sadly, this is exactly correct, to the best of my knowledge. There needs to be some kind of consequences for legislators who knowingly make unconstitutional laws.

I think this is kind of funny, but I finally got around to watching Game of Thrones for the first time on Sunday night. My brother and his wife were over, and they wanted to see the finale, so we were good sports and went along with it. As you might imagine, the show was vaguely interesting, but without any context, I just kind of watched for awhile, then fell asleep. I guess I'll eventually have to get around to watching the previous eight seasons.

This makes perfect sense. I never knew that, or even thought about it. Thanks for posting it.

Here's a Bloomberg article on the subject. Naturally, they are all gushy over his proposals. https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2019-05-13/cory-booker-gun-violence-plan-sets-standard-for-2020-democrats

What an enlightened approach!

The OP's heading says it all. Geez, the Dems act like we don't already have thousands of gun laws! I think they realize they are not going to be able to force their socialist agenda on us without first obtaining the complete confiscation of firearms.

You can't go wrong with Crossbreed for comfort and value, although you would need to carry your spare mag and flashlight in either a separate holder, or in your pocket.
