  1. I really think in this case, shooting from a bag would eliminate more of the variables than any possible flex would cause. I would set mechanical zero, and start over. It can't be THAT far off from mechanical. The Sparc has a max windage and elevation adjustment of 90 MOA. 1 click = 1 moa / 45 moa = 1 full rotation So, adjust it all the way to one side, then rotate back one full turn (exactly 180 degrees, or count 45 clicks). Do this for both windage and elevation. That SHOULD put you back on paper at least at the short end of EFGA's rifle range.
  2. Krav Maga is a very practical self defense. Those Israelis know how to fight close quarters. It's brutal and is 100% effort in every strike. Uses defensive striking rather than defensive blocking. It's what most women are taught for self defense. There is a Krav Maga gym in westfield, which I believe is run by the same instructors as the one in cherry hill.
  3. The Sparc does have a parallax up to 50yds, and if you don't know which eye is dominant, I can absolutely see the shots being all kinds of a mess. If you're just trying to zero it now, what were you using before? It's much easier to zero when using a rest or sandbag. Shoot 3 round groups and move your group to zero. Don't do single shots and try to move them. You may have problems with your grip and/or trigger pull. I'm not sure which day I'll be going up to EFGA, but I'll definitely let you know.
  4. I never said anything about GPS. A device that can scan, identify, and pull up info on a plate, faster than an officer can, is beneficial to the driving community, and crime as a whole. Everyone needs to take off the tin foil hats for a second, and let that seep in. Is everyone affraid that officers are punching in every single plate number that passes by them, just because they feel like it? Wouldn't that be on the same level of infringement? I don't recall anyone being up in arms about laptops and the ability for officers to check plate/license info on the fly. Chill out people. There are MUCH worse things to worry about than this when it comes to big brother keeping tabs. The link I posted earlier is about the FBI installing facial recognition into major metropolitan areas to help idenetify wanted targets. How did that go under the radar so easily, but a simple automatic license plate reader that doesn't even identify the driver, is a HUGE deal.
  5. One day I'll run into you there. We live a mile apart so maybe we've already bumped into each other before and not even known it.
  6. Missed the part about not discussing it anymore. Can't imagine why that should be swept under the rug. I didn't follow it to the end though.
  7. maybe they caught wind of the infamous "pistol throwing" incident? Some of the RO's there go a tad overboard some times, but otherwise, I've never witnessed anything excess on the part of either the RO or members. Most of the time I see members policing each other, or no need to do so at all.
  8. I can imagine a kidnapper or something of the likes, which had a reported plate number, being caught because of this tech. To me, THAT outweighs people picking another "constitutional" fight over a privelage. With higher numbers of drivers, a system is needed to keep up. APR's are that answer. When concerned with privacy and the likes, read this: http://www.businessinsider.com/the-fbis-nationwide-facial-recognition-system-2012-9 All of a sudden, automatic plate readers aren't such a big deal; in the scheme of things.
  9. no, no, no....that's different lol
  10. I shot 300rds through my SR22 last week and the lead fouling was worse than what RedBowTie posted. Took me about an hour to get the bore clean. Just a lot of elbow grease and M-Pro7 . When I started, I couldn't even get a rod through. Had to use a pick to to create a funnel into the bore. It's amazing that the thing even shot. But as was said earlier, this was a brand new gun and the rifling is usally sharp to start with.
  11. To a certain extent, I agree on infringing on your rights. Only to an extent though. Driving is a privelage that can be taken away at any point. This is the first thing you are told when taking your driver's license test. If you don't like the rules, don't play the game. Ride a bike, take a bus, train, or walk. As for repo guys using the technology; what's the problem with that? The people getting their cars repoed, are no longer the owners of the cars because they have defaulted. It is in the lease/loan contract that if you default, the car will be repoed by all means neccessary. After being on a few repo missions myself, I can tell you that there are a lot of times where you drive by the owner sitting in a store parking lot on the way to their home, and don't even realize it. Scanners would prevent the repo from failing, or wasting time. As much as technology can suck sometimes for the average joe, just play by the rules and you have nothing to worry about. The officers here have already stated that they aren't given any personal information from the scanners. I trust them for what they are saying. If you're lawful with your vehicle, there shouldn't be a problem.
  12. High Exposure, I got pulled over a few months back after I forgot to renew my registration. I was about a week overdue. When I drove by the officer he immediately pulled out without hesitation and turned on the lights. I thought it was strange because it was like he already knew I was coming and unregistered. Are overdue registration vehicles on that list?
  13. Right. When he was saying "get off it", he was actually saying that as it was happening. Notice how delayed he is in commentating the actions of the suicidee.
  14. First, how does she like the feel of your M&P? Grips will be almost identical in size between the two. Second, I would take her to a shop to just get a feel of the P22 and SR22. The P22 has some common problems with the ammo selections, and the slide. I think the biggest con when it came down to the P22 vs. SR22 was the mag release being awkward for her. The only thing you have to remember with an SR22 is that the safety is backwards. Every time she worked the safety, I made sure she heard me say "Its backwards from almost every other hand gun out there." just to make sure it was drilled into her head. The P22 and SR22 are almost identical in form factor. They look and feel the same, but to me the Walther felt a pinch lighter. The best option is to take her to handle them for a few minutes, and see what feels comfortable to work.
  15. Yes. Everyone must do it. Has to be a money order too.
  16. They shoot in PA, and they don't have an FFL so they only sell non firing, antique weapons if I'm not mistaken. There was a thread on them when the show first aired. They have some cool stuff, but its just another scripted show.
  17. I didn't say it was a GOOD reason. It's just the one I hear most. I think its just a secret reason to be "cool", hence, the spelling of certain words lol
  18. Well since it was for my fiancee, I wanted to get one that would be good in her minuscule hands, easy to work the mag release and the laser was the decision maker. I don't like the walther mag release and I know she would hate how awkward it is. The laser helps to show the little differences in trigger pull and sight alignment while she's dry firing. The SR22 gas gotten a ton of good reviews also. It basically shoots anything and isn't nearly as picky as a lot of others.
  19. The only advantage to a thigh rig is when you can't hip holster due to wearing a plate carrier that would be loaded with mags and other various tacticool shtuff getting in the way.
  20. You should see her with the AR ;-)
  21. Actually, I bought this for my Fiance. Regardless, this is a fun pistol to shoot. Most importantly, she loves it! As small as it is, it still fits pretty well in my hands, which aren't very small. There are tons of threads out there about how sweet this gun is, but what's one more right?We shot 300rds of CCI Blazer without a single hiccup. Slide release didn't fail to send the slide into battery like some complain about. No issues with slamming the mag in and sending a round too high that it gets shaved. Basically no issues at all.Trigger pull is a little heavier than I would like on the DA. The pull on the SA is a dream (at least for me it is). Sight's were 95% out of the box. Just a little tweak and I was shooting about a 5" group at about 25-30ft. I got a pretty good deal on this from Tech Ops, and boy am I happy that I got this. Super fun plinker, and my Fiance can't wait to get her holster and start getting better with a handgun. That was the ultimate goal to buying this gun, and MISSION SUCCESSFUL!I just happened to snap this while she was mid-shot. The empty chamber is just out of the frame.
