I could run one down with a slingshot, but I like having the odds in my favor, no? Outside of a full on terrorist act I would say yes an active shooter is probably the greatest threat. One only need to look to Norway to just how devestating a single active shooter could be.

And keep one more thing in mind, what a dept pays for an AR is a FAR cry from what we pay!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would also suggest one think long and hard about on one hand asking for the restriction of LE and in the same breath asking for us not to be restricted.

Active shooter is exactly the scenario I had in mind. Rather have it and not need it than the other way around. The need doesnt have to be frequest, it just needs to be once. Id rather have one patrol officer on scene armed with an AR running down an active shooter than a swat team a half hour out. But this is simply my NON expert opinion on the subject.

I find Im ok with anything 10lbs or lower. When its over 10 I start having issues with weaving and bobbing while shooting on the move or long free standing shots. I have to wonder about my scale (fish scale I bought to weigh guns cuz I dont fish LOL) KAC published weight on the EMC is 8.5 and the Elcan 1lb3 ounces I think so I need a more accurate scale to pop them on. But I CERTAINLY need the diet!!!

I doubt it. I think the consensus in the industry was there just wasnt enough demand in this rifle type. I think other manufacturers have dropped this line as well if Im not mistaken. To add to that the debt from what I hear is pretty large and LOOOOG overdue.

Besides the obvious, the unfortunate fallout from this event may be officers not being allowed to have a rifle in their patrol car anymore. I think its a useful tool they should have on hand. Unfortunatly that town is likely now going to see it as a potential liability.

Yeah about that light. I was asking my wife this very evening where my surefire grew legs and walked off too!

"Posted 01 August 2010 - 11:02 PM My Chrystal ball says MSAR will not survive. That is all I will say....." Well, I couldnt publically say back then but it looks like it has finally come about. 2/3rds of the way down the page. This is one of the main reasons I warned against the MSAR.... http://bkinformation.com/Admin/get_state_filings.cfm?State=North%20Carolina&AddedDate=%7Bts%20'2011-02-10%2022%3A19%3A30'%7D

What do they weigh revisited. SR15 E3 with BUIS and T1 Micro 7.5 lbs. Yeah this thing feels like an F1 race car!!! SR25 EMC with Elcan specter DR. 11.25 lbs. Frankly, I expected it to be be a bigger difference between it and the mws. I have to do a little investigating to figure out why.It definitly does not feel nearly as front heavy as the MWS did but that perception may change once I get out on the range with it. I expected it to come in 10.25lbs. SCAR16 with BUIS,aimpoint m4 Tango down VFG 9.5lbs

HD, I understand what you are saying but.... getting yelled at at cerain ranges for fireing a revolver to fast for example cause me concern about who's doing the watching. If it were a range with qualified RO's that understand whats what, I wouldnt really care.

BINGO!

video... what..WHAT really? That would be a deal breaker!

Yes it is. Just buy the right one. I had a DSA SA58c

Yes it is.

My thoughts would not be along the lines of someone parking having moved it. Based on the rough treatment I think I would believe someone tried to steal it!

Very true and a good point. What I do may be misleading because my consideration for where I pin it isnt based on comfort or feel, Im going for compactness and 1 lick off is as compact as I can get it without contacting the rear sight.

Im 6'2" and I always pin 1 click off of fully collapsed.

It may exist out there but I havent seen it where a school will teach advanced team operations with live fire to a group that does not operate as a team. On top of that, wasnt this really an add for shoes? edited for clarity

Ray, if you cant keep up with the conversation, its best not to speak at all. Lets work on your confusion. The question was did the commercial try and look tacticool to appeal to the crowd "wowed" and attracted to such things. I responded that I believed this to be the case. I cant see how you connected the dots and derived " You make it sound as if your better than "us" " out of me giving an opinion that Ben's inference is likely correct.

I would be happy to sit with anyone that would like to talk about the organization and answer any questions that I can.

Understood brother! We'll catch up at the meeting. Mutch easier to articulate in person

"Did ADE purposely make themselves look as ninja as possible as a means of distancing themselves from other training groups as a hope to rake in more profit?" In my opinion YES. I have been in a number of discussions with many industry prefessionals and manufacturers and we all agree, the mall ninja is in fact driving the market right now. The question most of us ask ourselves is if we are willing to whore out to this crowd? Most of us answer no....most of us!

Joel, the distinction is needed because NJ has moved from "commission of a crime with a gun" and its mandatory sentancing to the gun is the crime using the same mandatory sentance. If I rob a wawa with a pistol it is entirely different than I made a stop at a wawa on the way home from the range or whatever scenario you care to insert here. An error in paperwork, config of the weapon or any other "administrative" type error should not trigger the same seeking of mandatory sentance as someone actually committing an active crime with a gun. I do not think this was even the original intention of the law but that is what it is being twisted into at this time. This is especially important in a state that changes its mind on the law at whim. To this day I still run into people holding on to the memo from the State Police thinking their blocked mas are legal. Should they get the same mandatory sentance for highcap mag posetion as the guy that has a charge on him for hicap mag posession while robbing someone at gunpoint?

It may appear dangerous to those not used to seeing team live fire training. My isue wasnt safety although I may disagree with some of the "tactics" displayed. I will say that the vid did have a bit of a mall ninja essence to it though

Team SR15 NJ is shaping up nicely
