MrP

You need to get an idea. How would you feel if your neighbor said the same thing, shooting in your direction? You may not be a surveyor but if you aren't sure of what you're shooting at and what's behind it, you're no responsible gun owner either.

I saw Glenn's group, it's cost me $349 in therapy bills (so far) because my Sig can't out-shoot his surplus commiecrap half the time. Don't want to talk about it. *sniffle*

Just to reiterate the the really important part, WHY??!!

A slightly less serious, and more likely scenario is one in which a troll asks very basic question about firearms and pretends not to understand the answer. i.e. Troll "Hey guys should I get a glock18c or a real m4 machinegun. I think the glockz (im getting 2 btw) would be more fun to shoot like in callof duty but having a real machinegun would be so cool lolz" Normal Poster "sigh" Well meaning poster "You can't own either of those, and your abysmal grammar/firearms knowledge isn't helping your case; here is some helpful information" Troll "wut u don't like glocks?"

The quoted wall of text doesn't seem to list reasons for at least half of its statements. I found this to be an interesting read: This is an interesting read.

Oh boy oh boy! Congrats!

oops magical typo post.

While my family (myself included) isn't particularly religious, whenever one of us would be going through a tough time the other would "send them good vibes". Recovering from an illness, job interview, breakup with significant other etc. Sending you and Rafael vibes.

Glenn is a sweetheart.

The BATFE strikes again!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY COMRADE FELIX!

Rofl, it's easy! Just waste time you should be studying for finals practicing your draws/reloads. Oh and get extremely lucky, that works wonders for me. On a more serious note, I try to be as accurate as possible in practice and then speed up a bit during matches. I've found a great wealth of information at BrianEnos.com, also. I realized yesterday that I am forming a sort of addiction to IDPA. Next month my GF and I are going to a concert that I bought her tickets for as a christmas present. It's about 2.5 hrs from the town we both live in (both of us still live at our parents homes at the moment), and should end around midnight. I find myself hoping that she DOESN'T want to get a hotel room and spend the night, since I probably won't be able to make it to IDPA the next day on time... Oh lord.

Guys, Glenn doesn't really want your input. He wants to show off his ill numbers!

I saw Moose wearing an Appleseed Project shirt the other day, was wondering what it was about. Sounds tempting!

Awesome! Thanks for taking the time to edit all the clips to their respective shooters, I'm sure it's pretty tedious.

The 3 that came with my 226 E2 are much different than the ones Topgunsupply sells. Both are Sig factory mags, but the "older style" mags have totally different parts compared to the new ones. The old style mags also feel a bit tighter in the gun, which I don't care for much. Haven't had any issues with feeding though. Basically, the newer style 226 mags are going to be $45 and the older style mags will be $33 ish.

Thanks! Lordy, that was a long day. I thought the same thing as you when I saw the website and would've been veeeeery early, but Glenn straightened me out when I got to his house. Nick, when's the video going to be up? Can't wait to laugh at myself fighting with my SERPA lock.

Conveniently, the media forgot that the Rep's view was pro gun rights!

Per the rulebook, you're allowed to shoot one match without registering with the IDPA. I can't imagine anyone will call you out on this/enforce this, but that's what it says. I registered a few months ago. If you shoot it without registering it just means the classification won't be on the IDPA website, and you might not be able to sign up for a state/national match in your appropriate division.

*cough* my sig...

I agree. Carry if you feel the need to, but remember that the only reason you have the gun is to defend yourself from imminent physical danger. You aren't carrying to one-up the guy in a posturing (D*** measuring/pants hiking) contest. It seems stupid that a moronic neighbor should force you to invest money (however little) in a surveillance system, but it does seem like a solid choice. Ain't NJ great?

Never shot USPSA before, but certainly interested. Will check my schedule.

As far is the semi-auto slide racking goes, this might be a good article to read and pass along: Cornered Cat Rack The Slide. As aforementioned, while it's good to hear recommendations of pistols people like to speed up the process of buying, she's the only one who it ultimately matters to. No matter how highly I think of Beretta 92's, if she can't manipulate the controls or get good purchase on the trigger, it doesn't matter. It sounds like you're on a good track to get her started, and I only have one piece of advice to add: Please, please, please do not fall into the "I'll buy her a smaller gun because she's a tiny lil' thing" trap. For some reason, people seem to confuse smaller backstrap to trigger distance (important in your situation) with overall size of the gun. I've seen too many morons buy their significant others the compact version of their gun "cause' she has smaller hands". The grip to trigger distance won't be changing from the full-size to the compact version. You are only handicapping her by limiting her OAL of sight, and reducing size and weight that could be used to lessen felt recoil. Since she won't be CC'ing, size shouldn't be an issue. I doubt you would subscribe to the silly theory above, but I've seen it too many times not to mention it. Good luck!

I'm going! Please put me above glenn on the list, thanks.

Yeah because I'm a probationary member now!
