1911 Rail or no Rail???
Rail wasn't an option when mine was made in 1918.

Mark III vs. Ruger 22/45 vs. M&P.22 vs. GSG-1911
Threaded barrel is fine on the M&P22

Squirrel Problem
Squirrels have done a lot of damage to my father's home, and did a ton of damage to my neighbor's AC unit(before one little bastard fried himself). They are indeed affecting my livelihood. I do, however, prefer killing them quickly with minimal suffering. Drowning and antifreeze are indeed cruel IMO.

People uncorking!!!
Just a pet peeve of mine... are you talking about robberies(items taken by force) or burglaries(items taken while the owner was not around)? Seems incredibly high for robberies.

Social Security number on ATF form 4473
Your SSN is attached to your DL # that the NJSP has access to anyway. I always put mine down.

.22 Caliber Rimfire League @ Central Jersey
CJ is a great range, and well worth the money. I, too, wish it was closer.

Which other gun related forums do you visit?
I occasionally swing by NJ Hunter, but only if nothing is going on over here.

Double Action Only 9mm
Using your exercise it looks like a Tokarev would fit my hand best... To answer your question, the grip is crap, the trigger feels like it's being pulled through mashed potatoes, the sights are crap, the recoil is abnormally stout, and it looks like dog-crap. Furthermore, you will not change your mind about glocks, and neither will I. I will continue to encourage people to try different pistols and reach their own conclusion, and you will most likely talk about Gaston Glock as if he's your savior. I'm done with this thread.

Found guns in Father inlaw's basement
Official misconduct is mandatory jailtime iirc, right?

How cold is too cold?
When shooting becomes uncomfortable and no longer enjoyable, I won't do it. Cold and windy? No thanks.

Found guns in Father inlaw's basement
Having a friend run a serial number for you is illegal and a good way for that officer to lose his job. Just FYI, NJSP does track who runs what through NCIC.

Squirrel Problem
From what I've heard.... a .177 makes a nice neat hole and results in very little, if any mess. Just pick it up with a shovel and bury it. You might see some blood in the grass until the next rainstorm.

Controlling OAL Variation
My loads always make power factor, are super reliable, and consistent enough to where I see no need to do any more work.

Snow Geese Fatwah
I'm in if anyone will have me. Never hunted geese but always willing to try new stuff. Need to give the supermag a workout!

Double Action Only 9mm
We got to put a lot of ammo downrange with it @ SHOT. If they can keep the price in the $4-600 range it will be a home run. I just couldn't believe how they managed to reduce the recoil out of such a small-framed weapon.
-
Controlling OAL Variation
I always see some variation, but my loads aren't max, and my OAL is forgiving enough to work in my guns +/- .008 or so, thus I don't let the variation get to me.

Double Action Only 9mm
If you want a quality polymer slimline single-stack pistol look to the brand new XDs from Springfield. In .45acp it has less recoil impulse than a Gen4 G21. There are plans to add a 9 and 40 to the mix as well. SA definitely got it right with this one.

Which Red Dot for Bullseye?
Not sure what the bullseye peeps use, but c-more's are very prevalent in USPSA. Not sure what they go for or your definition of reasonable, however.

Squirrel Problem
Not that I would ever do it, but as mentioned an air-rifle in .177 makes quick work of a squirrel, even with a body shot. Subsonic .22 shorts are much louder than .177 but also do the job. Finally, I have heard that an air-pistol will not dispatch a trapped squirrel.

Double Action Only 9mm
I never said it was Customer Service. Feel free to PM me about my experience if you wish. Your nonsense about it being the "greatest pistol design ever" is purely misplaced marketing hype. If glocks work for you, great. Telling people how perfect they are is also nonsense. I can agree that they work for some, but with all the options out there, it's silly to believe that the outdated glock platform is the end-all be-all.
