Kudos to Midway

Recommended Posts

On Monday afternoon I ordered 2 items from Midway, a set of Hogue grips for the new CZ and an UpLula universal magazine loader tool (thanks, Mark). When I checked my e-mails this morning (Tuesday) I had a message that both items are on the truck and in transit to me. Very quick service. On the flip side, I've had an order in with Able's for a week now (just accessories, no ammo) and all I've gotten is an apology for the delay, but no firm shipping date yet. Big difference.

Midway is awesome.. now only if they would ship pistol ammo to NJ, they would be incredible.

The UPLULA is AWESOME!

Yeah, it is. Lynn got to use Mark's on Sunday for her Springfield mags (which are surprisingly heavily sprung) and couldn't shut up about it all day. So I ordered her one. It's far and away better than the piece of horseshiit loader that came with the gun.

Took me a few mn to figure out with the instructions on the package, but then is very easy.

 

More then happy to show you how on Sunday.

Hey Tiny,

 

Just for you. UpLula video.

 

this is the greatest thign ever!

 

Now I want to see if I can do it!

 

thanks!

It's the same set of muscle skills that all guys have been honing since their early teens. :D

 

I bet even Matt could do it, in spite of his delicate little digits.

NOTORIOUSLY heavily sprung. I keep them fully loaded at home and it has helped, but rounds 10, 11 and 12 aren't going in by hand no matter what...

 

I only have the POS that came with - but I can use it successfully. I think technique in many mechanical things is half the battle. Certainly the other half of the battle is applying force WITH my ample frame instead of against it.

 

ie: I had trouble getting my bike up on its center stand until a much smaller and lighter guy showed me the proper technique. I was attempting to muscle it and hadn't applied the physics properly. After his 30 second instruction, voila, one quarter the effort to achieve the proper result.

    • If you’re going to VA, buy 2 radios.  Program one for here and one for there.  If you guys are buying Baofeng radios do yourself a favor and get a tactical antenna for it,it’ll extend your reach.
    • Both our memories are a bit lacking. 3 bystanders were hit by NYPD bullets and 6 were hit by fragments at the Empire State Building shooting. The bullets later were determined to have passed through the bad guy as I said. He was not a big guy. The police fired 16 rds and 7 hit the bad guy.  Spray and pray?  I think not.  These officers fired until the threat was stopped and everyone is moving. Have you ever tried to hit a moving target whilst you're moving.  If you watch the video from where the police encounter him, the BG draws his gun from his bag, NYPD guys shoot, and the BG hit the ground is about 2 or 3 seconds.  The closest officer is maybe 12 feet or less.  The closest cover are those concrete flower pots.  If the officers chose to take cover before drawing the BG would have had a chance to shoot at least one officer. Know your target and beyond?  Agree 100%.  However, this by the Empire State Building at 9 am during the week.  There are bystanders and traffic in every direction.  The officers had a choice of doing what they did or letting the BG shoot them with his 1911 and shoot someone else. I think they made the right choice and the same one I would have made.  The officers exercised the best option in protecting themselves and the public. The first video is the police shooting.  The second is more detailed and gives you a lot of background information on the shooter. One thing this shows is if NYPD had to use fmj undoubtedly more bystanders would have been wounded perhaps killed.  NJ's hollowpoint law. only creates more danger to the public.
