I've never actually had someone to complain before. Guns are loud. If loud noises bother you, you're in the wrong hobby.

So despite having asked this question over a year ago, I figured I'd update. Finally purchased a set of LWRC Skirmish sights and I'm quite happy with them. I'll post pictures within a day or two. Really solid and much better sight picture than the MBUS sights they replaced.

No need to apologize for ranting, Howard. That's what this topic typically turns into and you're clearly not alone in the way you think. I've already covered my thoughts on the issue here.

I'll say that it's subject to change, but for the sake of setting a date/time, how about Saturday, April 19th at 6:00pm?

Hopefully that's a rhetorical question. It can always get worse.

If I recall, the last meet-ups happened around 6:00pm or so. It's hard to schedule stuff like this on weekends because that's when a lot of matches happen, granted not many seem to happen late in the day, so it could be a Saturday evening if that makes things easier for people. The date I put up was merely for the purposes of having a time picked to gauge people's schedules.

BladeTech makes some level II holsters that look interesting. I don't have any personal experience with those holsters but other products I own by BladeTech are all quality. The Safarilands are tried and true, though.

I've begrudgingly gotten the title of resident liberal here, but this is seriously not okay. This is complete garbage. If you don't mind sharing, OP, what school is this? What class? Who makes the curriculum? This is unacceptable and needs to be confronted.

I'm feeling optimistic! The weather has to break soon! RIGHT!? ...right? ...right?

So I was able to drive with the windows down today, which means the weather is getting, dare I say, nice. Anyone interested in doing another meet up at the Starbucks on Route 31 in Hopewell? I was thinking about throwing a date out somewhere in the middle of April. How about Friday, April 18th? TL;DR: Alright folks! The date is Saturday, April 19th at 6:00pm, weather permitting.

I agree with you guys completely. There was no reason to bring up CCW at the hearing. Same thing with the Nazi references and acting like we're being persecuted like the Jews under Nazi occupation. It makes us look stupid. Is it really that hard for people to stay on point?

SSA has a slightly heavier pull and break than the SSA-E. The break is also slightly less crisp, but still damn good.

Just bought an SD-E a few days ago. Wish I had waited for this sale. Good stuff.

M1 owner checking in. Get one. Seriously.

Cerakote often works well within the tolerances of most firearms. I imagine the bolt of a 500 would be fine. I would assume that whatever parts you need coated should be disassembled as completely as possible.

No problemo. Usually if you just copy and paste the url it creates a link automatically.

That's honestly my biggest issue with Airsoft and Paintball: the usual crowd isn't very mature, especially when you have a bunch of teenagers with more money than sense. The gun community by contrast is very tight by nature and it's one of the things I really like about it.

I did airsoft very briefly and wasn't hooked. The gear assembly can be fun, but the community in NJ doesn't seem too strong. It's simply money I'd rather put into actual guns.

People tend to forget that pistol calibers suck. That's not to say that I recommend people start loading .50AE as their primary HD round, but a person is going to need to be hit several times in vital areas to be incapacitated quickly. Doesn't matter if it's 9mm, .40, or .45. People should be prepared to put as many rounds on target as is necessary and not be committed to predetermined splits. If I had to defend my home I'd call the police, grab my AR, and secure my family while I wait (not necessarily in that order).

What's your frame of reference for .45s? I'm still considering grabbing a 41 and want to know how it compares.

I like the contrast of the furniture. What are the specs?

Start slow and practice up to a faster level. If you can't put two satisfactory hits on target at a modest pace there's no way you can do it going faster. Work your way up. Chances are as you approach a faster speed you'll find why you're pulling that second shot and can correct the issue. Also consider professional instruction.

I think the photos from Colion Noir are far more flattering. The profile of the CCP looks much better than the "up-the-nose" shot.
