hd, I could be totally off base but I suspect the way he was holding his pistol was part on the move and part full visibility. By having the pistol angled you keep from obscuring what your tring to observe until the time you need to fire at which point he went traditional vertical.

Hehe Cage, you have too much info on my capabilities!!!! If you hunt around this site you can find the feed to your PC for your local town usually. Its about a 45 second delay. http://www.radioreference.com/

Brash? No. Think more along the lines of gallows humor.

Ron, if you can feel the weight diff between my railed 1911 and my non railed 1911 your a better man than me!

Of course the thing I found most disturbing is that the idiots taking the vid were laughing about someone just dying....... where is a stray bullet when you need one?!?!?!

That K9 officer is one squared away dude IMO!!! It looks to me that he was able to keep his weapon ready, control his dog, asses that the other officer was distracted while he was trying to secure the taser, and assess that he was not going to make it out of the way of that attack with what looks like a haligan tool. Krd it looks to me like the officer that was about to get swatted was the one that fired the second volley.

blk, I played with the SF unit as a prototype. It was built well enough but it was a bit on the large side and I could see the potential for some issues. Besides, its a good excuse for another 1911!

In my area the only go encrypted for swat ops etc etc

Its a simple fuction question. if you want to be able to weapons mount a light, then get a railed 1911.

Id like a little teotwawki knowledge. Please keep me informed to date time and cost.

NO DOUBT Tony!!!! The time a scanner really proved its self valuable to me was when the call came over that two black males armed with pistoles smashed in the windows of a car at the red light 1 block away from my house. They robbed the occupants at gunpoint of all their possesions except their cell phone. They called 911 and the PD blocked off my block and got out K-9 for the search. This meant to me that potentially two armed men were looking for somewhere to hole up on my block! So the value was in being able to be prepared.

Well 3 weeks ago there was a swat call out a couple blocks away for an armed barracade situation. About ten minutes ago I was at my front door trying to figure out what direction the female screams and gunshots were coming from!!!!!!!!!! Seems it was about a block away! No I dont live in Beruit! I live in a middle class neighborhood. Bases on what i could glean off the scanner, a woman was on her way to the hospital and someone was in custody.......I think its time to remain strapped around the property!!!!

an unrestricted permit?

I have had a 1.0 and have a 2.0 on mine. I dont want to debate the legality of the 1.5 but I will say my personal comfort level with NJ (or the lack therof) I avoided the 1.5 due to the way its recessed.

Well lets send this convo straight to the deep end. keep in mind there are gun laws on the books for NJ for items THAT DO NOT EXIST YET!!!!!!

Oh yeah! She is so good I can even watch her with no sound at all!!!!!

1. Best Shotgun - For what 2. Best Rifle - For what 3. Best Handgun - For what 4. Best Movie - The Deer Hunter 5. Best Food - Flank Steak 6. Best Beer - No Idea 7. Best Actor - Humphry Bogart 8. Best Actress - Megan Fox 9. Best Car - Enzo 10. Best Truck - Peterbuilt

Well....Id call that manufacturing and although I have the capability, I dont have the type 7 FFL The next step up being what I call ground up would be where machining is required. Such as machining the rails, sight cuts, beavertail etc etc. Then there would be buying a pre-fitted framd and slide and drop in barrel whic I would put in the assembly catagory. Tweaking is what I refer to when you are working with a pistol that already has been assembled as a factory pistol from another manufacturer such as using a springfield armory GI as a base gun perhaps. Just my own little definitions and ideas on the subject

Bone has a firm grasp on what I was trying to articulate.

Hey for me its simple. I have no trust of NJ and will try and isolate myself from its idiocy at every turn. But on th subject of this debate and for the purpose of this debate only, I will have to side with what a leading firearms attourney has advised. I still fully expect my wife to take my pistol and do what needs to be done. But in the interest of said insulation, I will be having her get her own permits and pistol. The cost is minimal for protecting ourselves from criminals on both sides of the fence!

And for the record, as I said earlier in this thread: Protect yourself first and foremost. The relevence of the other cases is that there ARE those in positions of authority who WILL side against you even if your in what we would consider reasonable circumstances.

Im not a lawyer nor did I stay at a holiday in but the transfer law seems to indicate the only place a transfer is legal is at the range in the presence of the owner..... 2C:58-3.1. Temporary transfer of firearms 1. a. Notwithstanding the provisions of N.J.S.2C:39-9, N.J.S.2C:58-2, N.J.S.2C:58-3 or any other statute to the contrary concerning the transfer or disposition of firearms, the legal owner, or a dealer licensed under N.J.S.2C:58-2, may temporarily transfer a handgun, rifleor shotgun to another person who is 18 years of age or older, whether or not the person receiving the firearm holds a firearms purchaser identification card or a permit to carry a handgun. The person to whom a handgun, rifle or shotgun is temporarily transferred by the legal owner of the firearm or a licensed dealer may receive, possess, carry and use that handgun, rifle or shotgun, if the transfer is made upon a firing range operated by a licensed dealer, by a law enforcement agency, a legally recognized military organization or a rifle or pistol club which has filed a copy of its charter with the superintendent and annually submits to the superintendent a list of its members and if the firearm is received, possessed, carried and used for the sole purpose of target practice, trap or skeet shooting, or competition upon that firing range or instruction and training at any location.

The relevence to the current discussion, Mikee, is that I think these are cases that we would say look legal and in the right just like we would about the transfer discussion. But NJ tends to not see it in this light.

Another, Im sure I can find these all day. My opinion is NJ hates you and your guns and will find any way they can to seperate you from them no matter the circumstance: POINT PLEASANT — Police charged a Johnson Avenue man with weapons offenses after he used a handgun unlawfully against people who had come to his house to confront his 17-year-old brother, Lt. Richard Larsen said Michael S. Capanna, 23, of Johnson Avenue was the legal owner of the registered weapon, but had used the gun in an unlawful manner about 10:25 p.m. Friday, Larsen said. Capanna had been in his bedroom when he heard arguing outside the house, Larsen said. Capanna's 17-year-old brother was being confronted by a man and a woman, police said. Brandin O'Shea, 25 and Amelia Alexander, 18, both of Point Pleasant Beach, were at the house to confront Capanna's brother about an alleged theft at the O'Shea home, Larsen said. At Capanna's home, the confrontation became physical, Larsen said. Capanna took the weapon from its safe inside his room and came outside with it, Larsen said. Capanna did not point the .40-caliber gun at anyone, Larsen said. The couple fled, but returned after police arrived, Larsen said. By the time Patrolman Robert Wells arrived with Lt. James Jensen, Capanna had already returned the loaded weapon to its safe, police said. The gun was legally owned, but at the time Capanna went outside with it, he was using it in a manner that was against the law, Larsen said. The bullets in the gun are the prohibited hollow-point type, Larsen said. Capanna is charged with a second-degree possession of a firearm for an unlawful purpose and possession of prohibited weapons and devices. His bail was set at $100,000. Capanna was placed in the Ocean County Jail, but is listed under the name "Campanna." O'Shea was charged with simple assault, Larsen said.
