Well, except where the statute holds one accountable for negligence, it usually requires a willful act to break a law. The car accident isn't a willful act, and thus can be argued pretty hard in court.

There are just as many problems with electing a judge as with appointing them. It turns them into politicians, and we know how many good, honest politicians there are. It's one of those problems where there's bad and worse. Maybe appointment with public recall on the ballot. Beholden to very few to get in, and only to the citizenry to stay in.

Actually it was covered by NBC. That's where I heard about it.

Hey, it doesn't mean that non-black kids will be punished more, it will just give black kids the privilege of not being punished for breaking the rules.

There's look, and there's function. I like the looks of 15" tubes on a 16", but the function of the 13" is hard to beat, and it still looks good. With a 14.5" you bring everything 1.5" closer.

I like dissipator like setups. 13.x" tubes on 16" is the right thing IMO. For a 14.5" I'd probably call the 11-12" normal length rifle tubes max. You want enough to brave all the way up, but not so much that if you do a thumb on top wrap and point with the index finger grip you wind up with your finger on catching muzzle blast. Depending on your muzzle device it can cause you harm. I have long arms, big hands and long fingers. Also, if your grip and index doesn't use the whole tube, why add the weight?

I'm saying that you have to have your nose about 1/3-1/2 way back on an a-1 length stock. The Laurue spr-e mount has enough, so does the American defense recon-x, bobro has one, the primary arms one also looks long enough.

As for replicating the JFK shooting, here's one of the guys who did it for one of the shows I saw. He says he has done it for others. I know he isn't the only one, but it was the only one I remembered enough about to find. http://www.positiveshooting.com/KennedyAssassinationLatest.html

Sorry, but some of these are designed so very badly that they shouldn't be on the market as a security container. There are some that have issues that can be mitigated at a reasonable cost if you know what they are. There are also products that are pretty good for just a bit more money. Pretending they aren't won't help anyone.

My vote is for uhmw. Pretty tough, comes in black, reasonably easy to shape with hand tools. Cheaper than delrin plate. Delrin would be my first choice though. For easily acquired material, plexiglas can be laminated with crazy glue. Cut and shape slices, laminate, now you have an ugly block, but you don't have to look at it where it is going.

They sell all sizes. Installation requires the safety be fit to the gun. Can someone do it themselves, yes, I have. Can you screw it up and trash your new safety? Yeah. It's a good starter project for really getting into the nitty gritty of DIY gunsmithing since all the fitting is done to the safety, not the gun. That means if you mess it up, you have the working safety you don't like. The cost of two new ones and a file or two is less than one plus gunsmith plus shipping. However, you need to know how to function check, detail strip and assemble, and how to be patient and go a little at a time. Nothing on a 1911 is good for someone who belongs to team push it harder.

Funny thing when they talk of body counts and whatnot, they never seem to remember the happy land killings. A can of gas two matches and 87 dead. Still the record for a mass murder in the us that I know of.

It also reads like a previous proposed draft that didn't make it out of committee.

Not going to quote you bob, but the xm193 I'm referring to is lake city. You could buy it then. You can buy it now. There is no qc issue with it. If the military contracts for a million rounds, and atk's factory makes 1.4 million, that .4 million isn't military ammo and Clinton's order means jack. Hence the fact it is easily available today. Post 9-11 for a while they were using 100% capacity, and the only things you were finding were the qc cast offs that got out somehow. This stuff is showing up by the truck full, has been for years, and the last order for m193 by the military was in 2005. Just what is it the qc rejects from then? It's not. It's first run ammo made when they aren't producing contract ammo. Just like new unfired lake city brass isn't defective either when they sell it. It's excess.

Was looking for full range drivers that would work in that volume. $10 for the can, $50-90 for an amp, figure about $25 for materials. Can't find drivers though for the volume regardless of price. I'll bet those are cheapies with no crossover. MAJOR rip off. Ok, I take it back. I found drivers for about $30 each. So figure about $150-$200. If you wanted to go real cheap, $50 for the battery powered amp, $10 for the can, and $30-40 for a set of 4" car speakers. It'll make noise.

It would not be hard to build one for WAY less than $475. Even if you paid for a professional crossover design. A 20mm can would probably allow you to build something that sounds nice.

How about everyone needs a mental health screening every year. If you think something aberrant, you can't buy guns, drive, purchase dangerous tools, or anything flammable. I mean that way you can proactively detect dangerous individuals who might harm someone or even just disagree with you. You can't tailor society around the risks and problems presented by the 0.01% simply because protections of that nature can't contain a functioning system within it.

No it doesn't just ask federal. Best explanation I have heard is it is for excess, as in not actually surplus because it is excess production beyond the contract. Selling qc rejects would open them to a world of liability. I've shot a lot of it. It chronos consistently and to spec. The only item I might consider as questionable was the xm193pd or whatever the old bulk sky from 2002-2003ish was. That stuff was ugly, chronoed all over the place, and was the source of the infamous pretzel picture. But as a reasoned argument, who orders m193 at this point for xm193 be the qc rejects from.

I've had some discussions with people running Christie's campaign. They are aware they are fighting a game of margins with groups like the teacher's union against them. Their opinion about the RKBA crowd last election was more or less, "we'll leave things the way they are, all we have to do is not piss you guys off further, because who else will you vote for?" Last run, they had a point. This time they don't. I also pointed out that appointing the AG he did, the general BS that has been, and continues to go on in the executive branch, etc IS in fact pissing us off. They really do not understand the demographic, and I tried to get that point across to them. I also tried to point out that the RKBA crowd isn't just a bunch of hunters, they are informed, and that things like appointing a non hostile AG, not having the argument that a .22 rimfire with a totally different method of operation is substantially identical, having towns actually abide by the already onerous permitting laws, as well as a host of other minor things would be regarded as positive action without having to actually back any legislation. They are sort of in an echo chamber though, and rely upon the people around them. The few pro-gun types around them are of the heartily uninformed types that didn't realize there are things that the governor is control of that are not high profile, and could affect positive change. I've been trying to arm them with ammo too. I did pass along this forum of a place to look if they wanted an example of the dissatisfaction, and the BS within the bounds of current regulation that we are subjected to that is pissing us off.

It depends on the shooter. Your basic winchester whitebox 180gr .40 is 183 pf when all you need is 165. WWB .45 is 192pf. the .40 is going to be louder/barkier, and from the higher pressure and relatively slow powder, you are going to get a bit of that feeling like you are hitting something with a hammer when you shoot. With the .45, you will actually get more recoil, but it will be mellower sounding, and likely be less snappy and more of a shove with a bit more rotating torque. Out of a full weight all metal 1911, I'd take the .40 IMO, but the sound doesn't mess with my head.

It's probably due to the fact that the glock grip angle is significantly different form a 1911. Unless you really miss and catch the lips on the side of the mag opening, you are either getting the anggle wrong side to side enough to bind up or front to back enough to bind up. I suspect with the switch from 1911 to glock, front to back was getting you.

Nobody has, they haven't managed to write a draft that hasn't. Been shot down in committee yet. So they decided to end the committee and throw drafts at a vote until they get something that sticks. Btw they haven't even been able to get to the first round of that on time.

Actually, it has been done several times. At least once for a tv show.

Just FYI. The pepr mount is not offset enough for a nose to charging handle cheek weld. It is reasonably priced and constructed, but for run and gun type stuff, eye relief issues kill it. I've got one of the qd ones for swapping in a 4-12 scope to make accuracy testing of loads easier. It's fine for that and shooting from a bench.

Well he left the theater propped the door got his stuff and came back in last version I heard. Would have ruined the surprise a bit having the whole theater thoroughly alerted on his exit.
