He's gotta have some deal going with Ruger. He's always the first one to try out their new guns, followed by Hickok45 shortly after.

And now with video: ETA: http://www.gunblast.com/Ruger-LCR22.htm

http://www.gunsameri...new-gun-review/ Seems like a fun little gun, especially for those that already own an LCR and are looking for a cheap way to practice.

Happy birthday, Frank!

Is NY ignoring FOPA, or is he getting jammed up because he's been in NY since Dec 11, and thus not protected under the "safe passage" provision of FOPA? Interestingly enough, 4 or 5 different news websites that reported this story all said the same basic thing - G27 and 12 rounds of 9mm. More than likely it was the Queens DA that got it wrong.

Looks like it might've been a bolt override malf in the second half of the video

Considering the NYPD makes their cops use the NY2 (12lb) trigger in their Glocks, I can't say I'm surprised to see this.

Needs more Jessie Harrison(Abbate) Nice find

Made it out to RTSP today with another forum member. It really is a great facility. Nice and bright inside the range and it was nice to actually be able to breathe - they clearly spent a lot of money on the ventilation system. The staff seemed friendly and helpful. Someone was shooting a rifle (I think it was a bolt action .308) inside and yes, the concussion was pretty bad... but it is what it is Overall, I have to give RTSP two thumbs up. :good: Just wish it wasn't 45 minutes way. :thsmiley_deadhorse:

Bullet Hole and Bayonne don't. I don't see anything wrong with the waiver per se, but why they need anything more than a name and a signature is beyond me.

My preference is tip up. Generally speaking tho, the trick with either carry method is thumb placement. With a little bit of practice either up or down is workable. That said, most decent knives allow you to switch the clip for tip up or tip down. Regarding custom folders that offer tip up, look for custom Emerson's - they're almost always configured for tip up, especially if they have the "wave" feature. Strider's are also almost always tip up. Some examples: http://www.ebosshoss...tom-cqc-10-1715 http://www.ebosshoss...-wdamascus-1712 http://www.arizonacu...ex.php?id=22348 http://www.theknifec...sp?item_id=1693 Just some random examples that google turned up. ETA: and yes, custom knives can be RIDICULOUSLY expensive.

Found this on slickguns. http://www.amazon.co...duct/B00009363P Add to cart - proceed to checkout. Price will change from $48.99 to $34.29. Free shipping. I've never tried the Peltors, but they're generally well regarded and for $35 they seem to be a great deal for anyone in the market for electronic muffs.

I'm the opposite - right handed, left eye dom. I shoot handguns right handed with the the sights lined up with my left eye. I shoot long guns left handed (usually) - it was a bit awkward at first, but after a bit of practice it's not so bad. A nice side benefit is that you end up being fairly ambidextrous with firearms.

I'll take his spot if he doesn't want it

Maybe one of these? Keep in mind those are out of a 20" barrel.. and who knows how well his ballistics gel is calibrated, so take it for what it's worth.

Friendly White Families - kinda sorta right for my area I guess. Seems to be changing tho

Everyone should own at least one Strider SLCC (TAD edition)

It's do-able, but can be somewhat awkward. Some inexpensive throwers: http://www.amazon.co...23215790&sr=8-8 http://www.amazon.co...23215790&sr=8-5 http://www.amazon.co...3215851&sr=1-18 http://www.amazon.co...23215851&sr=1-2 A couple of us have electric throwers: http://www.natchezss...uto-Feed%20Trap A bit more money, but not too bad if you get it from Natchezss (shipping is about $50, so with the rebate, it's pretty much a wash) With the exception of the step thrower and electric thrower linked above, I usually see people use a couple big C-clamps to mount the thrower to the table The longer barreled one (I think it's 26"?) would do fine for your intended purposes Not the busted clays - just your empty shells It's usually not crowded (unless a group of us from the forum are there, which hasn't happened in a while)

Another vote for Emersons. My EDC is usually a CQC7, MiniCommander or CQC-10. Spyderco also makes some great knives that won't break the bank. The waved Delica and Endura models are a great value for what they are. Not quite as beefy as some of the bigger Spydercos like the Military and ParaMilitary, but still very good knives. Someone already mentioned the Spyderco Tenacious - ridiculous value in a knife. Yeah, it's made in China and may not use some fancy sounding steel, but at 30 bux you'll be hard pressed to find a better knife. They also recently released the Persistence, Resilience and Ambitious - they're basically different sizes (one larger, 2 smaller) of the Tenacious design. If I need something really small, a Boker Wharcom usually finds it's way into my pocket

Nice - glad they worked out

Almost identical to me cept I'm just shy of 12k & fire isn't volunteer (altho they have volunteers). Taxes were just over 9k when I moved here about 3.5 years ago. And the value of our house (according to Zillow, so take that for what it's worth) has dropped about $50k since we bought it. Bleh.

I wish I was that guy! My taxes have gone up that amount just in the last two years

IMHO, that's not the way to go. Because, like you said, you're not terribly off the mark, if you spend a bit more time practicing, you can probably get dialed in on your own without having to drop $60-$100 on a bandaid fix. You'll just end up having the same problem with the next gun you get. As some people on here are fond of saying, "it's the Indian, not the arrow" Either way, good luck

Correct. It's almost like a reverse Weaver but not as pronounced with regards to the bend. I wouldn't get too caught up in trying to get any of this stuff perfect right now. You'll find that over time you end up trying lots of minor little tweaks trying to find what works best for you. And Axeman gave the best advice - shoot more, think less The minute I start to over-think my shots trying to get everything just right before breaking the shot is inevitably when I'll start yanking shots. And sadly, I over-think quite a bit

Not sure how to explain it exactly, but I'll try. The underside of the trigger guard ends up between the knuckle and the first joint of my index finger if the off hand. The only gap in my grip is near where the palms of my hands meet at the back of the grip. Some people advocate a grip where the palms of your hands are basically touching, but I try to get up as high on the grip as I can, which ends up leaving a little bit of a gap between where the palms would meet if my grip was a little lower. You know what, a video can show what I'm trying to explain a lot better. My grip is somewhere between the last two grips he desribes. Just reverse it since your left handed: So, in a nutshell, just rotate your wrist a little more forward which should get your support hand higher up on the gun and should allow your thumb to clear the trigger bar.
