I have this exact model. Works great. I have been opening it once a day everyday for 8 months without any problems.

Why would i be better off with the Canon 70-200 F4 than the Tamron 18-270 F3.5-F6.3? I was thinking the Tamron 18-270 F3.5-F6.3 be more versatile since it had a broader range, but I am new to this stuff.

I think im set on the Canon EOS Rebel T3i (comes with EF-S 18-55 IS ll lens kit) and the Tamron 18-270 F3.5-F6.3 combo to get me started. I can get both shipped from B&H for about $1,230. Any objections?

I think as semi auto's became more and more reliable, the wheel gun started to become less popular as a ccw. The fact of more mag capacity with the same reliability is hard to argue with. And that guy in that video is a tool for sure. Does anyone take that idiot serious?

Pretty cool round. Its like a 9mm magnum. Very fast and loud. I tried to buy a M&P 357C, but found none in stock anywhere, and later found out M&P discountinued the 357sig line. That, and the prices of the ammo were enough to make change my mind about buying one. Although, I still find myself drawn to the Glock 33 Gen4.

Ok. A Canon Rebel T3i DSLR will run about $600 and the Canon 70-200mm L F/4 lens will run around $630. That sound about right?

I have not heard of any issues with the shield. The big difference between the shield and M&P 9 is the thickness. Single stack vs a Double stack. Personally, im a Glock guy. For me it's a G19 under a jacket in winter, a G26 IWB or a Ruger LCP in the pocket for summer. I have not jumped on the single stack 9mm bandwagon. Oh yeah, and not in NJ.....

Im looking to get a camera with interchangeble long range zoom lenses. I need to get close up action shots of my kids playing soccer. I see advertised in just about every circular today is the Canon Rebel T3 and what seems as its immediate competition the Nikon D3100x. They are both in the $500-$700 range depending on the "package" it comes with. Are these quality cameras? Or should I look for more expensive models? I am not a pro and do not plan on becoming one. I just want big , clean, crisp, high def pictures. I would like to stay under $1,000 with a 200mm or so zoom lense, but I am willing to go to $1,500 if I have to. What are the camera experts opinions?

M&P Shield is a 9mm and has a manual safety.

7 Min. Not bad.

Assuming your portable generator has a L14 30R 4-prong twist lock out. -Install L14 30R twist lock inlet on house (reliance makes a nice one -- buy @ grainger) -Run 10/3 romex to panel -install 30a 240v 2pole breaker in panel (tie nuetral to nuetal bar, ground to ground bar) -Connect L14 30R cable from generator to your L14 30R inlet -Turn off "MAIN" service breaker -Turn on your 30a 240v 2pole generator in breaker If you forget to turn off your "Main", your generator will backfeed into the grid and your generator will trip almost instantly.

3 striker fired and 1 DA/SA (Beretta) trigger system. If you like the idea of the same pull striker fired system Beretta makes a Type C PX4. It has the same trigger pull from first to last shot and it has the much slicker slide profile.

And considering you will only be putting minimal hrs on it, it becomes less of an issue.

I guess it could be dependent on what size engine and model it actually is. At 33% on the smaller 7-8ltr engines (cummins c 8.3, b 5.9, JD 7.3) the turbo isn't even spooling up. Brand also plays a role. e.g. the Cummins C engines are much more tolerant of wet stacking than the John Deere's

Not sure if it is photoshopped or not, but dealers such as glockmeister have them on order. The point is the slide is thinner. The 30 slide is very thick, same as the 21, making it hard for IWB carry. People have been putting their 36 slide on the 30's for a while now with great success. Apparently there is a market for it.

Save yourself a $150 on the interlock kit. Just remeber to shut off your main before turning on the generator breaker. If you forget the worst that will happen is your generator breaker will trip, no big deal.

Ageed. Todays electronics are not nearly as sensitive to voltage and hertz fluctuations as they were in the past. I have a "dirty" power 8250w powerhouse generator that powered my entire home for 36hrs straight. Multiple computer, flat screens, dvd playes, etc, -- Not 1 problem or burn out.

You are right. Diesels need to work hard to run properly.If you are not running a 70-90% load constantly you will destroy the engine. We had to rebuild a john deere generator engine after only 6000hrs because it ran at 35% or less load most of the time. It was a 7.3ltr john deere with a 1400amp gen set (110kw). These engines are usually good for 20,000hrs - 30,000hrs.

Edit: It looks like its true, there will be a 30S. It will still be the size of the 19/23 not the 26 since it is a 30 frame. You would be able to use 21 mags, since it is still a 30 frame.

I would polish the feed ramp with a dremel or similiar tool.

AND you can get +2 extensions for your Glock mags, making them 15+1, as if you might need that much.....

Doesn't the XD have a grip safety?

Go re-read. He doesn't want a safety so that leaves Glock and M&P. Out of those 2 Glock has a better stock trigger, as I had an M&P also. And I have yet to meet someone who has not recommended the apex trigger for the M&P. That being said, you can modify the Glock trigger to your liking.

Anybody notice the republican/democratic states map on CNN mimics the may issue/shall issue map on handgunlaw? R = shall issue D = may/no issue

Both have safties. M&P and Glock do not. M&P 10rds, Glock 13rds. Glock trigger is also much better. No need to do anything to the Glock , as everyone will recommend the apex for the M&P. I have a G21 Gen4. I am going to Cherry Ridge early am Friday. If you want to give it a run your welcome to, just supply your own ammo.
