Looks like new stuff for the Marketplace.

I am just going to close this thread now, because the response I read was from child in a mans body and it is only going to get worse. There is no need to be that much of a douchebag becuase someone questions your motives on an ethical question.

A few months ago I saw this happen in a 92 with a live round in it. After a bit of mallet manipulation it went into battery and we could rack the slide again. The issue was poor lubrication. But the mallet worked well. At least you do not have a live round in it.

Looks better than I thought it would. Go for it.

I am still a few months away from being able to shoot again, but I will be frequenting Shore Shot when I am healed up. I am not sure about everyone else.

It is unfortunate that this had to happen, but the repeated negative dealings, rude attitudes, threats and shenanigans that have been experienced by forum members made it impossible to continue our relationship and maintain the integrety of the forum.

Sounds like you are right. It is a tension wire that gets tighter in the tapered mag well. Can he use spring wire and make a new one? Or can he widen the mag body at the point of taper to stop it.

This is absolutely repulsive. I have been against partial birth abortions since I first learned of them and this is not any better. I also think any woman that does this is just as guilty of murder as the Dr. Abortion debate aside, this is just plain murder.

I do not get it. Why else would we be talking about arming teachers if not for the express purpose of protecting the schools and Kids? They armed pilots to protect planes, they would arm teachers to protect schools. And if they allow it it is to protect and requires a different training level. I can only say the same thing so many times. Otherwise it would read EVERYONE should carry everywhere, but it only reads teachers. Obviously carrying a gun is the only thing some of you want out of life. Maybe it is me, I have carried before and will again if given the opportunity, but it is not the be all end all for me. We will just agree to have different opinions on this.

Vlad, we are close to agreeing, because you have a valid point. I too believe everyone should have the right to carry. But in combating classromm violenct the teache is assuming responsability of protecting the kids in class. It requires a different skill set and mentality than just taking cash to the bank. Just as the Police do.

If we are expressly allowing teachers to carry in schools, then we are relying on them as security guards, and they need to be trained as one. I personally do not believe in any stipulation for carry by a law abiding citizen, but if you want to use them to keep the school safe, as this thread suggests, then they need to be trained how to.

I agree, but if we are relying on the teachers to protect the kids, then they need to be trained how to do so, just like any other proffesion that is armed for the protection of others.

There is no disconnect. I agree that most teachers would opt not to carry but the ones that do had better know how to use it. In my real world training I was always taught that when I entered a situation armed, chances are I was the one introducing a gun to the environment. SO I had better not pull it out without the express intent on using it and I had better know how to keep it either in my hand or holster. Yes the teacher will becaome a target if they are percieved as weak and someone in their class wants their gun. There are kids shooting up schools already, so do not think they will not make a plan based upon aquiring the Teachers gun. As I wrote the teacher has just brought the gun to the classroom. Hand to hand is up to them. As I said I am not against it , but they need to go through a bit more training. If we are letting teachers arm themselves to protect the Schoolchildren, then they need to be trained how to do so or they are a danger. There is a differnce in CC for personal protection and repelling borders. This is not an anti vs gun owner debate in here, this is opinions and brainstorming to see the potential good/harm it could cause. And develop a plan to implement it is possible. We need a little thicker skin amongst ourselves if we truly want to go out into the political world. Rule 4, I am looking at through the PC world we live in full of lawsuits and the direct impact it will have on my property taxes. One lawsuit would end Teachers Carrying in school. There are many things to be taken account for and fixed before hand. There is more to it than just strapping on a gun. I venture to say most people here have never carried a gun and do not have full appreciation for the responsability and potential consequences it brings. Not that that disqaulifies anyones opinions, it does not. I am just saying once you are forced to draw lots of things go through your head, then and afterwards.

I am not against it, but there are a lot of details to be worked out first. Like CC, it should not be known which teacher is carrying. They would need to go through more training like weapon retention, etc because they could be a target unlike Joe Citizen in the mall. But, think of the lawsuits if Little Johny was shot accidentaly no matter the circumstsnce. I think it would turn into a nightmare for the teacher and the taxpayer even if it happened while preventing a tragedy that would have resulted in more carnage.

And this instalment of Civillian vs Cop was brought to you by NJGF, where we all have opinions and attitudes. Let's keep it lighthearted please. Just saying

when will these idiots go away?

and it continues.

LOL, thanks Ray. I wish I could shoot as well as some of you think I can, except Ray. When I am all healed up I will do some steel shoots with you guys.

HAHA,I can picture her there too. Good thing Howell is not like that, you should move down here. Oh wait, you left here.

Howdy

Welcome to the forum, KenW will bake you a pie.

Warning, answering yes can be used against you on the Mental Health Records form by your local PD.

As if I needed anymore help parting with my money. I have to go just for the smell of cosmo now. I will have to bring the wife and the van, there is no way I could wait till we got home.

A successful marriage takes 2 people to make it work or fail and you need to have things in common. Opposites only work for sex. Marriages need to be worked on everyday because there is 2 of you, then add the kids and it gets tougher but is well worth it. I believe a good marriage starts out as good friends who enjoy spending time together doing things together and forming a bond that will last through the harder times. Because in the end, when the kids get older it is the 2 of you again and you need to have something to look forward to. For me being married is a wonderful thing. My wife is my best friend and we keep the relationship strong by including our activities with the kids and trying new things as well as having our alone time and seperate interests. It is not easy to blend 2 people into 1. There are hard times but the good times make it all worthwhile.

Unfortunately neither morality or common sense can be legislated.
