  1. 4" 357 just about does it all. You can get a 686 for your budget or a GP100 for a little lees. Master a DA revolver and any other handgun is easy. Don't buy into needing an action job right away. Millions have learned to shoot well on a stock revolver.
  2. She puts "na" or none. Some will say put the DL or SSN but if they wanted anything else they would say so on the P2P. Not an issue to anyone involved.
  3. The "standing behind your product" is a standard set by Rich Davis, founder of Second Chance body armor who literally shot himself with his body armor on hundreds of times starting in the 70s.
  4. IIRC the law says detachable magazine and two evil features. The flash surpressor is the only evil feature, no pistol grip, bayonet stud, grenade launcher, etc. IMO it would be NJ legal as shown.
  5. Anytime you are robbed you are unlawfully detained. Robbery includes assault.
  6. That's a New Service. It should be DA and SA.
  7. You can flip it for at least 100% profit probably more. Just be sure its a genuine Colt. Don't waste time posting here, go buy it and then post pics.
  8. Is it a New Service DA or a SAA? Either way its a steal if its in decent condition.
  9. Can you refer us to where we can find this revision from the AG in print?
  10. No you don't show a judge a link on the internet. The red part of your original post is your answer. You quote or show the judge the statute.
  11. You can add the Beretta 92 to that list with the G17 as its the semi version of the 93r.
  12. JFK to the Verrazano cross Staten Island to Outerbridge to GSP.
  13. I have carried revolvers on a regular basis for almost 40 years. The best option for spare ammo is a speedloader and a speedstrip or a 2x2 pouch. The idea is you have the speedloader for a complete reload and the strip or 2x2 pouch for a partial reload. If I had to pick just one it would be the 2x2 pouch. I realize that loading a revolver without some type of "loading device" is pretty much a lost art.
  14. You might give International Military Antiques in Easton, PA a call.
  15. I think it will all depend on the shooter.
  16. Answer 1 If the gun is cocked and locked I see no reason to lower the hammer if you are making the gun safe. Don't reky on You Tube videos for the proper methods. I would make the gun safe as you say. Answer 2 The 1911 and I imagine the SIG 238 have inertia firing pins. This means that even with the hammer down the firing pin doesn't contact the primer of the round in the chamber. Carrying chamber loaded with the hammer down (condition 2) is not a good way to carry. You can't have the safety on in condition 2. Carry in condition 1, cocked and locked. You can lower the hammer safely on a 1911 design. The inertia firing pin allows you to do this. There is no reason to lower a hammer on a live round. The 1911 design doesn't have a hammer dropper because it doesn't need one. Most DA/SA. pistols copy the trigger system Walther designed in the 1920s and do drop the hammer when putting on the safety. HOWEVER, you will find some 1911 designs (Star, Llama for two) that do not have inertia firing pins and you should never attempt to lower the hammer on a live round as the firing pin will be in contact with the primer. A blow to the firing pin will discharge the gun. If carrying cocked and locked bothers you, don't get a 1911 design. Master a DA revolver first and everything else is easy.
  17. I don't think its impossible. Eskimos used the 22 Hornet to take everything from ptarmigan to polar bear. That 22.mag the guy carries with the long barrel wouldn't be far behind ballistically. There was an episode on one of the Alaska shows where they were proxy hunting for this older retired hunting guide. Several years ago he was gutting some game and a Grizzily got hold of him. He showed where the bear had its last taste of meat when he bit a chunk out of this guy's leg. He killed the bear with the folding knife he had in his hand. All documented, they found the dead bear where he said it was stabbed several times in the neck. Skeeter Skelton told the story of a friend who moved moved to Alaska. The only gun the guy had was a S&W M&P in 32-20. Skeeter visited the guy after he was in AK for a year and he had a Grizzly rug in his cabin. He still onl had the 32-20. There are many who say a 44 mag with a 300+ gr bullet is the best choice for bear. Ballistically a bullet like that will give you more penetration than a 12 ga slug. That may be so but I'd go with what the NPS uses and AK DNR suggests (as pointed out in another thread) and that's a 12 ga slug.
  18. That may be so but a friend of mine was mugged by 3 guys when he was running just because they wanted to beat someone up.
  19. Check out the Taurus PT1911. Lots of bells and whistles. Mine has run 100% for the past 6-7 years.
  20. IIRC the military packs 800 or 820 in boxes, 840 on stripper clips in bandoliers. No idea how many loose.
  21. I'm looking to get a 357 lever to go with my revolvers but still have a Rossi 30-30. At shorter ranges you can get 357 up to the the energy levels of 30-30 but past 100 yds the 30-30 rules between the two AFAIC. Buckhorn sights are okay but a receiver sight cuts your group sizes in half. If you mount a scope keep it low like 3 power or so as the 30-30 I reload and usually use a lead bullet load for casual shooting. Not a powerhouse about like a hot 357 load out of a revolver but the brass lasts forever. I may know where you can get what you're looking for. Sent you a PM.
  22. There are some legal reasons I can't discuss here why a prosecutor wouldn't jump on this. Agree with everything except purchase legally. Yes, legally purchased guns are sometimes used in crimes but but I would say over 99% of gun crimes are committed with guns obtained illicitly.
  23. Apparently deal included testifying against the guy who sold them to him who is their target. "Special" as in part time, not a regular member of the department.
  24. Still a rather limited sampling. A 1911 is a fine firearm but its still over hundred year old technology (that still works well). I've carried a 1911 in combat and Glocks under similar circumstances. Saying 2 Glocks failed without the reason (ammo, magazine, limp wristing, gun broke) doesn't convey a lot of info. Cartridge selection is meaningless without precision as you say. Carrying a sidearm in combat includes conditions most shooters never encounter reliabilty when dirty, weight of ammo, etc.
  25. First of all, at this point there is no crime. There is no conspiracy. What would you propose the police do? Assign a detective to follow this guy for weeks or months? What if he never buys a gun?
