Just saw in Front Sight today that Springfield is releasing the range offier in 9MM. Probably be a fun steel gun light recoil due to the weight and load it down to duck fart loads it would be like shooting a 22 here is the page http://www.springfield-armory.com/armory.php?version=162

Cool I was not attacking it was just the way it was writen I wanted to clarify then you are good

Just one point that bugs me a little if you are still living at home rent free and then use the phrase afford everything I want please clarify. If you are buying a bunch of luxury items (gun toys whatever ) then IMO that is taking advantage of your parents esp if they are paying for school. If you are saving and buying a few luxury items as long as you are saving as much as you can that's cool. You need to sit down and take a good look at yourself if the guilt is justified or not.

Dude I am 40 and back in school for a career change stuff happenes. you are doing the right thing your parents are not kicking you out and hopefully you will get out with a good degree and get a good job

OG have you looked for someplace that has them available as an online course

Love Turnbull stuff. Cylinder and Slide made one a few years back that was done to the blueprint of the original browning drawings looked really cool. Iike the color case hardened turnbull ar10 so good looking. One day I will have the money for some nice 1911's right now the Range Officer is a great gun.

Sorry guys I dont know what happened to the ones I posted ad thanks BT for reposting them

It really depends how competive you want to be. The number one thing is light so you can make the transitions faster. A good cheaper gun is the Ruger 22/45 light compact. Am accurate gun is important but it need not be a tack driver. Longest shot is usually 25 yards at an 8in plate and most of the time a 10in or a tombstone or rectangle. Score is the fastest 4 runs out of five typically at five plates with a designated stop plate

Tony you are correct but the majority of military use 9 I doubt this reporter has any idea about the Marine order of 4000 45's.

Since when does the military use .45. Since 1986 have we not used 9mm in the miltary that would mean both parts of that statement are not true many LE use 9 and 40 and most of the military uses 9. Really wikipedia could have given the author better info. It does make me wonder about how much of the news is compleat BS i mean we catch all the gun mistakes but what about an article about lets say dangerous shemicals are the Chemists sitting there reading it going what a DUMBASS

Here are the pics I copied and pasted them

That is the Springfield Range Officer. Very nice gun for the price MSRP 850 can be had cheaper. (this is not my pic or gun just know the gun as I have the same one). Yes that is the way the gun comes. Springfield wanted something that could be used for variuos compition with very little extra needed so it comes with adjustable target sights a holster two mags and a mag pouch

I have a netgear dual band it works well. I dont use the N band because my laptop does not have N band in it but it came with a N band thumb nic so it does not work that well.

Rick I for sure have an eye dominance issue P.S. for those that have not met me i am blind in my right eye so just busting chops)

Nice Blake I would have never guessed your girl was Anti when I met here. Lucky for me my wife never shot till i took her but she was deffinitly not Anti. Good job too Wink-Wink. I find it weird my Sister said she would soot with me but never wants one in her house and my BIL goes and shoots with his nephews and Uncle all the time. His Uncle is ex-leo and my BIL grew up with him in the house so I think he is likes it but not enough to spend the money or try and fight my Sister about habving one in the house

I was thinking the same thing i guess they do not unless they are talking about building a rimfire AR. I really hope not considering the proposed price tag

Well thats really not a Kimber anymore now is it . I have shot a kimber and like it. I have shot a colt Gold Cup and love it. My current 1911 is a Range Officer and I love it. 3000 rounds through it and no issues. I cant say about other guns as i dont have trigger time on the others but I have heard enough bad on the Kimbers that if I had that amount of money to spend on a 1911 it would not be the Kimber. I have also heard their Customer Service leaves a lot to be desired. I have dealt with Springfield CS and had nothing but praise for them. My next 1911 will be a custom (Les Baer is what I am leaning too) but it will be a while probably next spring as a graduation present to myself.

Enjoy the break Vlad.

Straight Omaha or HL8B Straight omaha is too much of a nuts game HL8B on the other hand is fun as hell. I really like HORSE even though I HATE razz. That game is a soul crusher at least in high you have a pair of aces in razz you start with A23 and end up with freaking 4 of a kind or an K high but it does generate action

Here you go want a killer steel gun that is light as hell. Oh and BTW dont worry about the kids shooting it you will have to sell one to afford it anyway https://www.volquartsen.com/products/1120-scorpion

Love my Mkii and like others said once you do it a few times not hard to do. I break mine down once every brick or so or if I am going to shoot steel with it want it to function well then

WOW he is right that is not a hollow point that is a flying ashtray like the wincheseter HP

Unless they cahnged hornady makes critical defense for .45 they just released it in Duty last year before the ammo crunch and has been hell to find.

Any game as it gets short handed the starting hand values go up and if not for the increasing blind format a tourney would take forever. Yes there is luck involved in tourney poker but there is luck involved in live games also. The rake at the lower limit games is tough to beat that is why lost people that play for a living play higher limit. That is also why the low limit games are rock city a lot of the time because the more hands you play the more the rake affects you making it harder to beat. I not saying many of the people that play all the time are going to make their living doing it (not sayinh I could either) but at least it you have a better chance of coming out ahead from a night of play then any other game in the house.

Just wanted to wish all those heading out this morning for nj shotgun deer season good luck and hope you fill your tag and your freezer
