Congrats! 1,000,000th post!

Davidsons. They had a crap ton, right now, as of a few days ago still had some. Send me a pm, will email you the flyer.

For regular model? Unfortunately that is no longer a "Great deal". These guns can be had for in the $300's, new. Just to confirm... $319 is dealer cost on them now, so $350 new.

Just to add a note, @Stag Arms just registered to the community but it was caught in spam filter. Here to offer a comment or a solution? The power of the community. Thanks!

I think for gun porn, the most realistic gun movie in the recent past was 13 Hours... and of course John Wick. Lord of War too.

My goto range bag is the one I got as a prize from Brownells for one of Area 8 matches. It is the Brownells Signature Series Deluxe Bag. A bit pricey BUT have had it through TSA checked baggage numerous times and holds up very well. Only thing bad is that one of the zippers broke after the lock attached to them got caught. Main issue with the bag, it is easy to overload it with stuff.

Moved. In either case, have you asked the detectives? I do however believe if anything, it would show up under the mental health records check.

Good shooting. For rifles I would not even worry about it. For me, handguns are predominantly all hallow points.

In that case you can make the argument that you can be pulled over and charged for anything at any time. As other LEO HERE have mentioned... not an issue. I weight the risks of that potential VS... the benefits of: cleaner holes in paper + less lead fowling down the barrel.... (no exposed lead base). Spot on.

I dare you to find anyone whom was prosecuted JUST for having hollow points in the car. Hollow Points are an add on crime, but you are not going to be prosecuted for simply being pulled over and there are hollow points in the car. Hollow points are an issue IF you do something else wrong, i.e. murder with hollow points, or High Capacity Mags + Hollow Points... (i.e. Aitken case).

I think one key here not being discussed is also the environment in which the guns are used. Generally, I will agree, there is no need to completely detail strip a gun, especially for 95% of the gun owners. These are the guys who take gun from safe to indoor shooting range, shot indoors in 70 degree weather, with no wind. The guns are almost never going to see a holster and 500 rounds... is A LOT for those guns. While I am not a Glock fanboy, I am a 1911 believer. Generally, I will field strip + remove firing pin to clean inside the channel. This is good enough for 90% of the shooting that I do. I do however detail strip my 1911 and 2011 guns every so often, and certainly on match days either out west (Nevada) or Florida. Generally, you are shooting matches, particularly the big ones in all kinds of weather, from rain to snow to blowing windstorms. Nothing will stop a gun quicker than getting fine sand/gravel in the rails or the trigger mechanism. The beauty of a 1911 however is that generally it was designed to be fully stripped using its own parts as tools, so it is fairly simple to take apart and put together, down to the base parts. Would I do this to my CZs? HELL NO. lol. On the other side... I also suspect LEO and most gun owners here don't shoot crap ammo like Winchester White Box.... THAT crap leaves residue and unburned powder everywhere and truly makes guns filthy. As they say, garbage in, garbage out. So @GRIZ I do agree 100% with you when it comes to Glocks for most typical shooters and LEO... but there is certainly a subset of shooters, many of which are here as well, shooting in all kinds of conditions and not afraid to drop their mags to the ground, like @Howard for whom a detailed strip of a fairly simple gun like a Glock is not out of the question.... especially in Florida where every range is essentially sand. Prime example of this is what we see every year at Media Day at Shot Show. An average new gun brought out to be demo'ed will get about 2,000 rounds through it. Those guns are shot in breezy, windy conditions with crap blowing everywhere. The guns were also forced to be left out with chambers open and chamber flags. By the end of the day, a good amount of guns end up either broken or not running right. Those guns absolutely need to be detailed stripped and cleaned. Will 99% of guns out there being sold ever get put through those conditions? Not at all, and I highly doubt 99% of LEO guns would be subjected to such conditions... but there are plenty of shooters who do. Just this year... one in our party, an FFL in south jersey broke at least 2 guns... 1 was a 458 Socom AR by a major public manufacturer which was having feed issues end of day. And I personally shot Glocks, Walthers, Springfields, RIAs and others which gloriously malfunctioned due to lack of cleaning at Media Day over the years.

Falling Skies? Nope, it finished after I believe 4 or 5 seasons. Was quite good.

Here you go... just what they need on The Walking Dead. Suppressed, 300 Blackout select fire guns.

This is why I far preferred Falling Skies. As far as ammo... would be cool to see them reloading like they did on Falling Skies. As far as guns... they need suppressed 300 blackouts. Can't be tough to find suppressors. lol.

So yes, all things being equal would obviously take the gun that never had issues... and so should everyone. Unfortunately it is not always that clear? and there are always trade offs. Personally, I am not scared of malfunctions, particularly handgun stuff, as that is really drilled into you. The only stoppage of a malfunction would be a squib... no way am I shooting it out... but that is ammo and not really the gun. When I am around my gun on me is a 1911 or something. When I was away at Shot Show... the home defense guns were a Glock 22 and a M&P 9mm. Different priorities... yes a 1911 may have more stoppages but I am far more proficient on a 1911 platform. When I am away, wifey feels more comfortable with a "reliable", higher capacity platform. For more... there is a VEPR AK in another place... ZERO reliability issues.

No sir. Still cannot get it to be reliable and there is a major update coming in the next few weeks. The GOOD news is... it will be a BIG step towards making mobile even friendlier to browse and navigate and will be a very clean experience, especially for premier members on mobile. Believe me, I GET IT. I was out so did not see it myself. There were a few things we were doing at the same time... upgrading SQL and PHP. What is possible, our data center is in Michigan, they did have an outage around the same time... not exactly sure when. haha, sorry. Only a few companies are censoring gun sites as far as I was made aware and in a few cases we made appeals and the forum was allowed.

How many rounds through each gun? Which one was recently cleaned? Would I be in a position that I can't cycle the gun by ejecting the unfired gun? All else being equal, yes, I would go for the one that was more "reliable" but otherwise, the one I had more experience with and knew how to work inside and out. OR.... The AK in the safe. =P

Honestly, this is really breaking it down tooo much. No one really needs a Full size M&P, a Compact M&P and a Shield. In reality, you will either have a Compact or a Shield. Same for 22lr rifles... 10/22 and a bolt action? Eh, just get one and you are done. Same thing for AR... a carbine gas rifle and a mid length? Why not just get a 14.5"+brake in a Mid gas system? Or at the least just get another upper, no need for another lower. Etc. That's the thing... if you are getting that many, it is not because you really need it... but rather want it. Practically speaking, there is not much that a carbine gas system can do that a mid length gas system can do and vice versa... and generally folks get the longest gas system they can get for the length barrel they are putting together. Since you are in Jersey, that is 14.5" + brake for 16"+... in that case, you do not need to be limited to a carbine gas system on a 14.5" and you can get a mid length gas system for such a barrel.

Was the gas block loose? Or just not lined up correctly? IF not enough gas, I suppose the lube made it easier to cycle... but should have been apparent when firing it? Particularly with ejection "oompth." Let Stag know... I am sure they would want to take care of you. If you want, I can reach out via media channels to them.

This. Some of my favorite guns and those I use in matches are actually not the most reliable. For Home Defense..., I have an unmolested and unmodified Glock 22.

What was the price? Davidson recently discounted them to like the Low $200s/$300s. CZ has a new model coming out that use new mags. They use a different catch. New mags will be compatible with the older CZ P10c, but not the other way around. Change was the P10C now being ambi mag release.

Just trying to recall the G43, but IIRC, for some reason the G48 recoil felt weirder/harsher than G43. Interestingly... in these pocket guns the most memorable experience I recall was the Springfield XDS (that small one) in 45 ACP. A nice push.

Actually, it was not their webhost... most web hosts don't give a crap about the type of site you host. It was actually their website provider, Shopify, which they used to run their webstore. Shopify is shutting down gun companies. In either case... the gun itself... very function 50... but from the folks that I know who shot it.... it HURTS! Beyond that, the big issue, unless you have private land, there are very few places you can actually shoot a 50 in NJ.

Spot on... but even for "primary HD gun" Don't care about the price... what I care about is whether I had hundreds or thousands of trouble free rounds through it. Beyond that, it is about knowing how to deal with any malfunctions. Plus for Home Defense... it will be a "reliable throwaway" as if God forbid you have to use it... you should be able to kiss it goodbye for a while. (unless this is SHTF or Zombies where courts will not be an issue).
