How Often Do You Shoot Your Shotgun?
I haven't even bought ammo for mine yet... lol. However, i bought mine to shoot clays, and picked up a barrel from a forum member for HD. So i expect my shotgun to get some good use now that the weather is warming up.

Q's | Magazine Release Button Swap & 9mm Ammo
I stick to Federal American eagle for plinking ammo. 115gn usually. online u can find it for about 10 bucks a box + shipping if you look hard enough for a good deal. You may find cheaper ammo, but it wont be that much cheaper and quality will suffer. For HD, i use Hornady tap or hydra shock 124gn. I stock pile my plinking ammo because it cheaper that way, on avg i save about 5 dollars per box bought online compared to in store. It's just too damn expensive to try and load up on HD ammo, i dont shoot HD ammo that much either after i have confirmed it runs through my pistol.

No Grand Jury for Trayvon Martin Case...says Special Prosecutor.
Wow, they needed a cop car to parked there to deter tour buses? Man at first 2012 seemed like a joke, but now it's slowly becoming probable.

Experiences with Buds Gun Shop ?
Buds is good, but its a one click shop... I asked them to keep the mags 17rd for a 92a1 and they said no, i didn't even want reimbursement. Which lead me to buy the m9a1. Even the 3%+ prices are on the cheaper side usually.

No Grand Jury for Trayvon Martin Case...says Special Prosecutor.
What's even more ridiculous, is that these people would rather rush this case to court then actually investigate. First off how the hell do you expect any grand jury indictment with a pending investigation. Worst case scenario, this guy was guilty, they rush trial, evidence is insufficient and he walks. Second, what is the point sending him to the grand jury if they know they cannot prove beyond reasonable doubt. And then what is to stop Zimmerman from suing for malicious prosecution... It's called Justice people, get over yourselves. This basically goes against everything this country stands for in terms of justice, and im 100% sure all these people pointing fingers wouldn't be all that thrilled if the justice system threw away the book when it was there head on the line. Your entitled to your own opinion, and creating a stir bringing awareness to the situation, but demanding justice to basically disregard our justice system is not only unpatriotic but is seemingly terroristic. These people are challenging our legal system, and they are doing so using mob style tactics.

Grain Count?
In a nut shell, yeah. But that has more to do with bullet dynamics. It's not over penetrating that is the issue, its how much actual damage a bullet does while traveling through an object, and how fast you can project the bullet safely and accurately. But this is just scratching the surface. Powder is a very tricky subject tho. You could potentially load the same amount of powder of the same powder for both 9mm and .45 with good results, titegroup comes to mind. and were talking about 100gn difference in bullet weight. More powder doesn't always mean faster either, remember pressure is the biggest limiting factor. To really answer your question, factory ammo is loaded based on pressure and FPS +p and +p+ loads. They are hotter loads, and are always loaded based on bullet weight. My HD round is a 230gn .45JHP +p, i don't know what powder it uses, but it has higher then normal pressure in comparison to a standard 230gn JHP from the same manufacture. Hotter loads can be dangerous tho, and it would be a good idea to make sure what ever your using can handle it. Most firearms can shoot +p and some +P+, revolver more so, but continuous use can and prob will wear your gun out. Unless your loading your own ammo, you can only read the manufactures specs on the cartridge, you generally don't look at what powder and how much. Companies will also vary specs on standard +p and +P+ loads since they all use different powders to hit a general mark in terms of pressure and fps.

House visit to sign permits?
Depends on how your town issues the permits. Mine requires that i meet with the officer/s that handle the paperwork. 1 of 3. Some towns u can just pick them up from anyone at the station. So it can go either way.

Gun Cleaner
The smell of hoppes 9 doesnt bother me. I now associate the smell with the happy feeling of a clean gun. i plan on picking up some mpro 7 to compare, and also have two different bases to work with.

OMG ex's
Aside from the horrific event that took place, that article was pretty funny to read. It says he was hit in the head first, so she may have knocked him out and he awoke to the jaws of life surrounding his manhood.

UN overstepping their bounds
Where the F have these people been in that last month when the Florida authorities have been investigating? I mean really? And they are still pulling the race card? They don't seem to mind when we profile terrorist..... talk about consistency. Does the UN receive month old news or something? or are they really under the impression no investigation has or is taken place?

House visit to sign permits?
NO ONE is going to turn down permits ready for a signature..lol, not in this state. Maybe if it was clear when applying, but most of the BS with permits is when your done applying....when all the gotchya's rear there ugly heads. Unless of course your running an active meth lab out of your house, in which case i'd probably turn them down...

House visit to sign permits?
I'd have no issues with the Sgt. who handles my paperwork coming to my house. Sometimes they are on the Rd. and why not have THEM swing buy to drop off your permits. They don't have to come in your house unless weather permits and even still use the garage or something. As for it being mandated.... i don't think so. It just shows they are "investigating" something and not just trying to be convenient. The motive is what bothers me here.

Question on dry firing
Honestly... why not use them? even if there not needed, they can only help aid preventing wear on your firing pin or hammer. Better then having them bottom out. I use A-zoom, and they are probably the same thing as any other brand. They slip right into and out of the chamber, and last a pretty long time.
