Nice grab Stu! Beat me to it.
@Mr.Stu And @DirtyDigz - Rumson is the next town over from me (maybe a 5 minute drive). I can be a middle-man and grab it if you can’t find a time that works for you guys and @Rob0115.

A good lawyer will have a field day with this one.
Seriously? “Sounds Fishy”? You can’t think of a reason why the cop thought that was going to happen after watching the video?
The cops are there after multiple reports/complaints of vehicles in the pedestrian walkway and reports of near misses.
The ATV is on a pedestrian walkway where there are not supposed to be any vehicles and is moving at very fast pace. If he couldn’t stop for the police car, what makes you think he could stop in time for a pedestrian. He dynamited the breaks to avoid hitting the car and lost complete control of the ATV. Luckily the mass of the car prevented it from continuing to tumble down the walkway and take out pedestrians like bowling pins.
If he had hit the brakes like that to avoid hitting a pedestrian instead of the car, would the ATV not have flipped? What would the now out of control ATV have done to any people in the walkway? Would the first person be hit have enough mass to stop the ATV in its proverbial tracks?
I have seen plenty of pedestrians stuck. It is never like the movies. They don’t parkour out of the way of a speeding car - especially when pushing a baby carriage and the vehicle is approaching from the rear in a place where you think you are safe because vehicles are not permitted.

According to the report - the ATV driver was brought to the hospital with serious injury, but alive.

Correct.
The PD and City are behind the officers actions and saying he prevented a tragedy.
ATV was not even supposed to be in that part of the park.

Yes you should replace it.
Do you know what caused it? ‘Cause…. That shouldn’t happen.
Atlantic Firearms that @PK90posted is a good shop. A quick google search will Give you tons of good options all across the price spectrum.

And I’m out…
Had surgery on the middle finger on my shooting hand.
It was more involved than I thought…
Stitches come out next Wednesday…
Have fun. Shoot straight!

Oh man! If that wasn’t the Marine version, I’d jump on it.
Is that a Gen 1 or Gen 2 gun?

Yep. The wife went last week. Not sure what she got though.

It’s an LCP. Throw it in a DeSantis Nemesis pocket holster on your strong side and get a Nemesis Mag holder for your support side pocket and call it a day. This is how I carry my LCP (I only carry it doing chores around the house, I wear a Glock 19 or 48 doing anything off property), I never even got a belt holster for it.
If you want to keep it on your belt, wear an UnderArmor HeatGear type undershirt tucked into your pants. The material prevents the chafing, especially when sweaty and hot. I always wear a HeatGear so my AIWB/IWB carry doesn’t rub my skin.

Looks like BarSto it is then.
I have a BarSto barrel in a .45 on a 1911 - it’s flawless.
My buddy has a G23 with a BarSto barrel - also flawless and he shoots it a lot. He sent his gun to BarSto and had them fit it for him.
-
Yes! I’m in - depending on Wx.

Looks like Sig discontinued that item.
Bar-Sto makes one but it requires some minor fitting.
EBay has a bunch of new old stock Sig P239 Conversion barrels for sale.

How are you on here now? If it’s your phone, you should be able to recover the password that way.

Photo of the totality my wife took with her SLR:
There was some bright pink/ruby light at about 7 o'clock that was really cool. You can see a hint of it in the photo.
Moment of totality looking West (From the VT side towards Plattsburgh NY) over Lake Champlain:
If you zoom in, you can see Venus at 5 o’clock a little less than halfway between the eclipse and the mountains.

Ok. That was awesome!

Took the wife and kid up to Lake Champlain (South Hero, VT) for a few days to see the eclipse from the totality zone. It is so nice and calm here. The weather is crisp (going to be 61 today, but we had snow flurries on Saturday) and clear. We booked our place last spring - so we got a cheap rate. Got our glasses when we booked our cottage.
Hope everyone enjoys it and stays safe!

Wouldn’t say he was solely responsible in developing that as a rule. Or that he was the only one teaching it. I mean, on its face, Rule Three seems to be a pretty self evident rule - until you become a firearms instructor and see how dumb people get when they pick up a gun. Also, if you watch any of the old training videos for Military or LE (WWII and Korea era) you will see some pretty disturbing gun handling being taught - or at any rate, not corrected.
But, he was the one to condense the rules down to only four (I have seen accounts of instructors having over a dozen “safety” rules) and to push them to be a universal standard. He is also responsible for the creation of the 4 conditions of readiness, the color code of situational awareness, and is the primary creator of the modern technique of handgun shooting as we currently know it.
