Help Me Choose My First Pistol
Yes. I own both, and while the 17 fits me best, the 19 holds more rounds while still being comfortable to shoot. If you can pin the 17 rounders down to a 15, then the Glock 17 would kick some major a**... EDIT: I would like to add though, if you buy a Glock 17, you can purchase aftermarket .22lr conversion kits to practice with... I don't think they make those for the Glock 19 though...

LOL, you did better than me justifying the Glock 19 on my blog...

Tavor Coming to the US
I'm sorry, but how does canting a rifle one way or another prevent you from using your sights? Especially if the sight is an RDS?

Suppressor Or Silencer...!
friggin Hughes, what an asshole for ruining machine guns in our country. Getting that overturned will take a lot of effort...

AK Variant Help
+3 on the WASR-10s... I own 2 and a friend of mine has 1. All three shoot very reliably and about as accurate as an AK can with steel cased non-corrosive ammo. Century ironed out their issues awhile back from what I've been reading. All the old WASR-10 horror stories are from early 2000s rifles.

Tavor Coming to the US
There is a magical solution to this... you shoulder the weapon, then proceed to tilt it 45 degrees so that the casings eject downwards. So easy, an Aussie, a Frenchie, a Brit, an Israeli can do it.

Getting a Ar-15 stock shipped to you house
I guess this must apply to double-barrels then? I only say that given the length of the receiver on most pump-action and semi-autos pretty much allow for pistol grips and no stocks, but still pass muster.

Holy hell!! I've always wanted one!

Getting a Ar-15 stock shipped to you house
That's a bit silly, no? "sawed-off shotgun" applies to the barrel, not the stock. Not to mention: an AR-15 won't function too well without a buffer tube/stock on it. Bingo. No worries about owning the parts... the NJSP is not omnipotent. Just be compliant ASAP...

It's not so much the lacquer coming off, but the buildup of burnt powder in the chamber due to the inability of the steel to expand to seal the chamber during ignition of the powder. Box-O-Truth tested this I think... if all you did is shoot steel ****, then switched to brass, you'd have issues. So you'd have to clean in between. Again, given the low cost of brass AR-15 ammo these days, I don't see why folks really spend on marginally cheaper steel cased stuff. You may save a few bucks, but you're getting an inferior round in so many ways. I can see if you stockpiled it during the "bad times" ammo shortages awhile back... OR if you have a rifle like a Saiga .223 or something... Honestly, spend your money on XM193 55gr... it's the best all-around cartridge for the AR-15 platform at the lowest price. It works better than M855 (62gr) at better ranges and is just cheaper.

Lacquered Steel? Or Polymer coated? Either or, they're a pain to clean up.

I tried it once using some Tula my brother had laying around... my 14.5" wouldn't cycle properly with those weak loads. Given the cost you can find XM193 these days versus the slightly less cost of buying cheapo steel, it's just not worth it IMO. Buy the 'good' stuff. Besides, Russian **** .223/5.56 just doesn't work as well as US Mil-Spec ammo... it just doesn't fragment as effectively at similar ranges...

Tennessee tourist arrested for bringing pistol into 9/11 Memorial
Yep. And they would probably win too. But I doubt the NYC DA would less this progress because of the potential for loss and an appearance before SCOTUS.

Tennessee tourist arrested for bringing pistol into 9/11 Memorial
Me thinks all these recent arrests in the Big Apple over legal CCW is part of some court case in the making. Get a few likeable criminal plaintiffs, take it to the SCOTUS, and go that route...

Heavier buffers supposedly help with recoil mitigation... however, the trade-off with them is that when you shoot **** ammo like TULA or Herters, the rifle will not cycle properly.

NYPD, Feds Testing Gun-Scanning Technology
It was expected, that if things got bad enough, we would simply have another bloody revolution leading to a Balkanization of the United States into separate regions/states, until there is a reason for these independent units to reforms and begin anew. Let's face it: America's done, stick a fork in it. Most people don't care about their Constitutional Rights... and most who do are Cafeteria Constitutionalists, where they support some rights and ignore others which don't fit their agenda.

Hoppin on over to say "hi"
I hear it works with Glocks pretty well... I also hear it's a great way to clean out dirty "pinned" magazines too.

Change law to 20 round mag limit
Also, nothing really stopping someone in New Jersey from buying a standard capacity magazine in PA, breaking it down into individual parts, and calling it a magazine "re-build" kit... Or buying >15 round mags and pinning them/limiting them yourself... But really, the 15 round capacity limit is pretty much unenforceable from a practical sense.

An easy fix for this is to privatize airport security. It's unconstitutional as long as the Federal Government / State Government is doing it, but it's AOK if the private airlines are paying for it and organizing it.
