20 second call to pardon an American
A prosecutor may offer a deal like that for 2 reasons in my experience. One is if the case is weak. Two, they have a good case but it's not worth the effort to take it to trial. Other cases demand more attention. The only place I've seen it was a hollow point is here. Every other account says one round of ammo. The loaded gun in the trunk is what really got her in trobule. I can understand the judge ruling her expired permit is expired even if it's within the grace period. Not saying I agree with that or any of this. Just saying I understand.

2 Permits and too many decisions
A 4" 357 is the best all around handgun AFAIC. It's also a great gun to learn on. Master DA revolver shooting and everything else is easy. A standard 686 will fill the bill unless you want to spend more.

Very first AR target grouping
FWIW, I was taught the flat isoceles leg position in basic training in 1967. I think a lot of things that used to be done get "rediscovered". Many others and myself were running a M16 wet in 1968. I've always been an advocate of using what works for you as long as it's safe.

Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017 Hudson, NC
If the Democrats take over they won't amend this. They'll repeal it. Then they can still pass legislation requiring registration, possession permits, etc The legislation doesn't have to be new laws. It can be conditions for getting federal money. You want Federal School Lunch money? You have to have all guns registered, require training for possessing firearms, etc. Take what you can get. Worry about losing it after you have it.

20 second call to pardon an American
There are too many questions in this case AFAIC. If she was going from one residence to another she was covered. That's something any half as defense attorney could have used to have the case dismissed way before a trial. She took a plea? That means admitting she did it and no appeals. Why take a plea when you have a slam dunk defense? The story about the Trooper seizing the car without arresting her doesn't sound right. The only place I've seen this story is on "gun news" websites. I'm sure it would be covered by others but there's nothing else

Very first AR target grouping
With all due respect, waiting for the respiratory pause may not work for everyone. The problem is timing your sight alignment with the respiratory pause. If you wait for the pause and take an extra second to align your sights you're holding no breath. While your brain is telling your diaphragm to contract to get more air in you're overriding that. That will cause blood pressure to go up and create other tensions. You really need to time your final sight alignment with the pause When you use the half breath method I described you are calling the point when you'll hold that half breath. One would normally feel more comfortable doing that. You still have air in your lungs and that is more comfortable than having none. When you get used to it your chest position is pretty consistent. The best recommendation I can give for the method I described is millions of people learned to shoot well using it. Nothe saying it's the best but it definitely has proven it works.

Remington 870 DM (magazine feed shotgun)
I remember paper shells being deformed in a tube magazine over a couple of weeks. Yeah, I'm an old guy. I've also seen plastic shells deformed in tube magazines. Not sure how long they were loaded. I didn't try to load them in either case. That's how bad they looked.

IDF rifle course
The US Army was doing fire and maneuver exercises as part of basic training in 1967. They still do so. Yes there are different ways of clearing a room. You may be introduced to the concept but you're not going to learn how to clear a room in 6 hours. JMO

Do you think they work?
That can be solved by a shot of WD40 and a wipe down.

What makes IDF training better than our Army or Marine Corps?

Interesting Movie Coming to Theaters this Feb!
I can see your point. The only exciting part would be when they disarm the shooter. In slomo that might take a minute or two.

Remington 870 DM (magazine feed shotgun)
Agreed. First pump was Winchester in 1897. First semiautomatic Browning 5 years later. So we're talking over a 100 years for each. Still more traditional pumps out there than anything else.

Like to see that too. I'm sure Eastwood kept those guys in an acting range he knew they could handle.

Combat Accuracy vs Target Shooting
That's because if a platoon us going through an area in a free fire zone and you take some sniper fire from some buildings the entire platoon returns fire to surpress. If it's the Army your FIST calls in artillery. A few rounds to adjust and then a battery 2. Say 12 155 rounds. There's a couple Apaches in the area so the FIST has them give you covering fire as you advance. As you advance the platoon is still shooting. When you get there you find: 1. Body of the sniper. 2. A blood trail. 3. Nothing because somehow it wasn't that sniper's day to die.

Combat Accuracy vs Target Shooting
One thing on the range, another thing when your target is bobbing and weaving and shooting back.

Combat Accuracy vs Target Shooting
Keep in mind shooting skills is a very small part of combat shooting. Mindset and mental preparation are about 95% of it.

Combat Accuracy vs Target Shooting
Jeff Cooper didn't believe in point shooting. He believed in a "flash sight picture" which is about what you're talking about. I also agree with Cooper that if you're properly trained, when the time comes "the target will be large, the range short, and you'll have plenty of time".
