    I've been hearing good things about the V3 (Chuck Hawks and others). Remington might make a comeback after the bankruptcy restructuring is sorted. I'm hoping they cut back to what they used to be good at then go from there.

    Get the extra rubber on the brace. The regular SB that came with my PSA kit isn't comfortable.

    i have used the Velcro brace for a few shots just for laughs while I shot it one handed.

    i have to say I like the AR pistol much more than I thought I would. It is really, really cool (most important factor obviously). It also doesn't shoot as poorly as many would lead you to believe. With the standard A2 can there sadly isn't the fireball effect. The lighter weight makes it fun to shoot off hand without putting it down for 4 straight hours [this morning]. Jump on this before the ATF changes their mind. Once liberals discover these scary, more concealable black guns the ATF will succumb to the pressure.

    I'm a fan of the alien gear 3.0/3.5. The newer holsters breathe better in the NC heat.

     

    as for carrying a 1911... I carry the shield because it was 1/3 the cost of the 1911. Also reliable, etc. God forbid If I ever had to use it, I won't be as upset having it "confiscated" until my innocence was proven as I would be the much nicer, more expensive 1911. 1911 is also very heavy compared to polymer pistols. Good luck!

    I think an AR build is the way to go. Being modular will keep her interest. Downside: The lightweight parts will be expensive.

    i know savage makes a few lightweight deer rifles. Haven't shot them but remember seeing them when I bought my 308. The accu trigger is nice right out of the box.

    Another route would be to look at a number of different youth rifles. They come in a lot of different calibers. 

     

    Edit: now how exactly did you convince her to come to the range?

    There's significant Ukrainian populations in random towns and cities all over the US. If he goes into law enforcement in any of those or the surrounding areas that are recruiting, he would have a significant advantage having it as a primary language vs the disadvantage of basic English in most lines of work.

    can always volunteer at local schools to move into coaching. I used to help coach a squirt level ice hockey team twice a week. 

    There's also usually a lot of resources for immigrants on the national embassy websites. A Russian family friend took advantage of these on the Russian embassy site and got a civilian job on Ft Bragg.

    Good luck to your buddy.

    I was living in Manhattan not too long ago. My understanding for bringing firearms into NYC was that I would need to apply for a license, go through an interview, possibly be denied, then register whatever I brought. I'm sure there are people who go  through this process and I remember some very limited hunting exceptions but I doubt NYC citizens are armed in any statistically relevant number that would affect these rates compared to London in particular. 

     

    i remember reading this article on the firearms blog and it had a very different narrative. Essentially guns are largely banned in both places. So what is the reason? Largely changes in law enforcement practices.

     

    My point being this isn't the best pro 2a "evidence." All you have to do is compare London to another restrictive gun law major city with lower murders (looks like almost anywhere) and the argument is lost.

    556 is effective. My combat infantry buddies in Bragg are using. Delta guys here are using them.

    IS guys are doped on khat and meth. I've heard of guys taking a dozen rounds before going down. A dozen. Unless you shoot these guys with hellfire missiles you can't expect 1 shot stops. Luckily, these are very rare individuals.

    NC is in trouble too due to Charlotte luring large banks, the Research Triangle, and Triad or whatever they call it out by Winston-Salem.

    Whole country is battling, but NC is a state that is still fighting from a position of strength (hence why the nationwide conceal bill originated in NC). Can't say the same about a lot of other states that were bastions of freedom just one generation ago.

    We need conservative NJ residents to move to NC for a change. As long as you are retiring here and not looking for a good school district, you can buy up huge amounts of property 30 mins or further from town. Definitely stay out of Durham county. Avoid Cary (Containing Area for Relocated Yankees) unless you want to feel like you are still in NJ. But seriously, we need some conservative yanks to start moving here instead. NC is tired of NJ residents who "just had to get out of that shithole" and then try to make NC more like NJ. Doesn't make any sense.

    Come breath the fresh, free air and help keep it free. The battle is actually ongoing here as well, but you are fighting from a position of strength. Police are very pro-2A but your interactions will be limited due to your obtainable CCW, which comes with a much larger platter of freedom.

    You want beach? Take I-40 to the outer banks. You want mountains? Take I-40 to the Great Smoky Mtns. I'm going to take 6 deer on my own property this fall. Coyotes will drop like flies.

    Seriously need anyone on this forum to retire out here. Keep us in the position of strength.

    I don't think you would've had much fun with your HD shotgun. However, I don't agree with the rule about not letting you blow your money lol.

    i used to go to this private driving range back in high school because I could take my shirt off in the NC summer. I never tried to do it at an actual golf course because it wouldn't have been allowed. I'm guessing the HD shotgun rule is probable similar to the shirt on the driving range rule lol.
