All this talk about this flashlight makes me curious, so post some pics of said flashlight!

USPSA Central Jersey Rifle & Pistol Club - 4/8/12
I'll be there. Now just gotta decide whether to shoot my G17 in production or try to get the equipment for the 1911 9mm for single stack.

Ammo Group buy is it possible?
I'd definitely be interested in 9mm and maybe other calibers.

Movies that you can't help but watch over and over
There are many movies I'll stop and watch even though I have them in my collection and can watch them whenever... some that come to mind and haven't been mentioned yet: Alien Aliens Terminator Serenity Fifth Element Patton Unforgiven and practically any Clint Eastwood movie (not Bridges of Madison County!)

Discovery Channel Kills Bear
Me too. I enjoyed Survivorman 1000x more, too bad he stopped doing the show. Les Stroud went out there alone and carried his own video gear and shot all the video. Plus he's so much nicer and not douchey.

Name change
I did a cursory search but did not find anything related. Sorry if this has been addressed before. So in another few months I'll be getting married and my wife to be wants to take my name. I know she will have to apply for a new FPID to reflect her new name, but do we also have to do anything about the P2Ps that have been used already to buy handguns?

9mm 1911
Really??!! Why wouldn't you shoot a .22LR? It's cheap, fun and accurate. You should definitely add some 22s to your gun collection. They are great trainers if nothing else.

9mm 1911
I have no doubt now. When Wolfy was saying that before I thought it was a slight exaggeration, but the other day I shot both the SW1911 and my MarkIII in the same session and there was not much difference. With a lower load I can totally see the recoil be as low as a 22.

9mm 1911
In case you need further convincing BLF, the SW1911 Pro in 9mm is the softest shooting 9mm I've ever shot with factory ammo. Very low recoil, very little muzzle rise/flip. And of course you know about the trigger. I really am in love with this gun Now, I haven't shot other 1911s in 9mm but I would wager they have similar characteristics.

Bunker Mentality
They've been doing this since 9/11 and then Katrina. I've seen commercials for ready.gov quite a number of times in the last 10 years, but it seems to pick up right before seasons that more likely to have disasters (ie hurricane season and winter). I'm really glad they do this now versus the old mantra of just wait for the gov to come help you... yea right.

Do I need a revolver?
I voted yes because as Pizza Bob said everybody needs at least 1 revolver, but after reading your full post you also need a 22. So hit both with 1 stone and get a .22LR revolver!

The Walking Dead
I'm pretty sure Rick was pointing out where he sees scratches on the guards when they were examining them.

9mm 1911
Soooo... once you shoot a good 1911 how do people go back to shooting other triggers? Not to sound like a tool, but after shooting the SW1911 last night for a while the triggers on my other guns felt like complete sh*t and frustrated me (accuracy suffered). I think I need to make sure I shoot the other stuff first and probably practice more all around.

Red Dawn
Loved that movie as a kid. Then again, if it had commie killing in it I loved it.

Recreational shooting and lead toxicity
Thanks for sharing this with us, it really is very helpful. I prefer to shoot outdoors for a variety of reasons, and this is yet another reason to continue doing so. But I am also planning to start reloading and the posts in this thread gave me some very good tips on how to do it even safer. This thread should be stickied, or another thread with all the great tips should be stickied.

Big news in the fight to carry
Wow, amazing, they do exist! (judges that understand constitutional law) This is great news, here's hoping for more rulings like this.

The Walking Dead
Well, tonight's episode put a big exclamation point on how different the TV show is from the comic book, which is nice because you can still be surprised even if you read the comic book.

Bar-Coded Condoms
I guess this is for people who feel posting semi-naked pictures of themselves and drunken diatribes on facebook is too tame?
