Oh, I believe it exists all right. Or by "existed" do you mean "for sale at Dick's"?

Tape a popsickle stick to your trigger finger? If you watch the video, the shooter is able shoot them both simultaneously (first) and then individually (second).

I enjoy stripping, cleaning and modding my guns (when the mods work...). Just appeals to the latent mechanical engineer in me. However, I enjoy shooting them much more. 8-)

"Call it!"

IIRC trigger is $65 + shipping, hammer is $89 + shipping: http://www.sierrapapacx4.com/

Been playing COD4 for a long time now, also into COD5:W@W and getting back into H3 via ODST as well. I'll be pulling an all nighter when COD:MW2 comes out. Any NJGF'ers want to do some gaming on xbox live or put together a clan, send me a PM for gamertag.

Every time I think I've seen it all - I'm wrong: http://www.saddleryandgunroom.co.uk/Gunroom/SG_Hushpower.htm

I have read that with 9mm 115gr fmj the jump is ~300 FPS with a CX4 versus a handgun. I have yet to come across any documented test though. Anyone out there got a chrono they'd be willing to share?

I like it better than stock, much crisper. I had issues with the replacement hammer not functioning properly, but the guy at Sierra Papa bent over backwards to help me find out the problem. I ended up sending my trigger group assembly to them to test. Turns out they made the hammers with not enough clearance in the center channel to allow for "non-straight" trigger bars in the storms. He actually straightened and polished my trigger bar and it's been fine ever since. Since they diagnosed my problem they revised the hammer design they're selling to have a wider center channel and sent me a replacement at no charge. They're a class act.

Higher velocity and more accurate than a handgun but still nowhere near the velocity/energy of an AR or AK round. For an HD gun in a populated area though, that's not necessarily a bad thing. With hollow point ammo chances are you won't penetrate the next 2 houses over with a missed shot. I can use the same ammo in both my glock and my storm. If I had a beretta pistol as well, I could even use the same magazines.

BTW, my storm currently: - Eotech holo sight - Dual bolt handles - Command Arms TLL (150 Lumens CREE LED light + red laser) - Mako T-pod grip (usually leave this off, it's just plain big but the bi-pod is nice when doing long range shooting) - Sierra Papa aluminum trigger w/travel adjustment - Sierra Papa stainless steel hammer - Moerse Lekker barrel shroud

to be 100% certain, remove the mag well adapter from your storm and it will tell you what series of beretta magazines it takes:

I understand the sentiment, but the information you're providing is confusing the issue. The question is not what is defined as a weapon, but how ammunition can be legally transported I don't transport loaded magazines to the range in my ammo container simply because I want to - I do it because I also believe it is *legal*. I'll continue to believe that until I'm shown written law that says otherwise. Some of them are so poorly written as to be contradictory and confusing, yes (like what is a legal semi-auto shotgun...). Some police officers are better informed/more scrupulous than others, but your point is valid: because something is legal doesn't mean you won't have to pay for a lawyer and go to court in order to have a judge rule that it is so. Yep, misinformation abounds, which is why I think its helpful to get clear answers to questions whenever possible.

And how does this relate to the transporting of ammunition inside magazines inside sealed containers? Where is the statute that says *all* "weapons", per the above definition, can not be transported? I'm not aware of one. There are statutes on transportation for specific sub-classes of "weapons" called firearms and ammunition. I believe we've covered those earlier. Is a brick a "weapon"? (capable of lethal use or inflicting serious bodily injury)? If so, I saw a flatbed truck carrying a large load of weapons yesterday, immediately capable of inflicting serious bodily injury in the hands of any person, not in a sealed container and accessible to the public.

Lookin' good! Enjoy!

Let me assist:

My understanding was that as long as the ammo is separate from the firearm and in a sealed container then it is being transported lawfully. There is nothing in the statutes that addresses whether the ammo is inside a magazine, inside the sealed container, or not. Looking forward to any "official" clarification.

If I get motivated enough, I'll find the web site of the guy who has been tracking the rise of "no-knock" warrants in the US and all the mishaps/injuries that occur on both sides (police and suspects) because of them. From the perspective of the people inside the house, how do you know whether you have the police/swat or a home invasion robbery gang coming in?
