That is one drill that works wonders, but only with a flat top frame that accomodate the empty shell caseing. It works on a glock...my Beretta...not so much. You can accomplish dry fire without the empty shell by simply becoming more aware of when the hammer (or pin if striker fired) is going to drop, and not being in anticipation of it. I tend to dry fire with a light switch in my bedroom as the target. I can see if I'm snatching. "Trigger Snatch" is very common, and I know shooters with many thousands of rounds down range who still hickup. BTW, too much trigger finger means you've got too much of the pad of your finger on the trigger. Your finger shouldn't wrap the trigger...only the pad, about 1/2 or so, on the trigger. It's easier to show than to explain in writing.

That's a good practice target. I do the same thing, low left. ALL the TIME. Dry fire drills are your friend.

Me too. Now I have to work on comments. Ugh.

I read once in another thread the Chief signed the extension, but the request was made a few days after the first 90 days had passed. You're going on better than a month.

It really doesn't matter what experience any of us have had. The only thing that matters is what your PD is going to do. I'd go to them, today, and ask for the extension. It can't hurt to ask.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the replies! I'll get cracking on some history, and perhaps a value.

yeah guys...I'm really sorry about the photo's. I believe they are rim fire of some sort. Each hammer is conrolled by it's own trigger, and the barrels are notched to accept the notched hammers.

I'm pretty cool with "Cause I said so." How about you?

Dude, you totally made all this shit up. Admit it...you live at home with your parents...in their basement. Respectfully....

I'll see if I can get better photo's. My digital camera sucks. The other question...does a purchaser need permits to acquire these? I have no use for them and suspect they have some value to a collector.

Don't know what these are and no idea where to begin. Seem like a set of old dueling pistols. No identification on them.

Thanks. I'll probably package it when I sell my fathers S&W 38 special.

I think some get too offened too easily. I don't worry about what someone else is charging. If I'm a buyer, then I make an offer. If I'm not, I don't. I also don't worry about the people who come here with the intent of "gouging" the community. Ignore them, and if you did to, they will be shunned and unable to pollute the community, if this is what you are worried about. Think about it for a second. It takes two people to make a deal. If someone comes here trys to "gouge" and I ignore him but YOU buy his product, then who's hands are dirty? Huh?

They do in my case. I haven't carried a penny's worth of credit card debt in close to 20 years. In that time I've run hundreds of thousands of dollars in purchases through my discover card. While merchants may have amended their pricing to accomodate credit card fee's, absent credit cards, they would or did have to amend them for bad checks and cash management. I believe banks charge merchants for bulk coinage for change, no? I remember a client of mine who was in the building supply (ceramic tiles/bath/kitchen fixtures) business who stopped contractors accounts. If the contractor couldn't or wouldn't pay prior to delivery the owner of the home where the material was being installed had to come to his store to pay for the material. He said it was one of the best decisions he ever made. The credit card vig paled in comparison to the cost of extending credit to his contractor base.

I've got a full box of S&W NYClad 158 Grain ammo that was purchased in 1981. Box is in good shape. Is this stuff collectable, or should I just shoot it?

I can't imagine going back to spending cash. Ugh. We run everything through discover...I mean everything. It's just so easy to track purchases online and with excel and then catagorize them in Quickbooks. I can go weeks without using hard currency.

I think they closed registration on Thursday to allow for data migration from the registration platform to the Nooks, but someone in the know can confirm/deny/correct me as necessary.

Takes a licking... And just like I said....Alpha Bravo. nice video edit.

I have to say, the handful of times I've ordered ammo on line I've never once been required to send a copy of my NJ FID to the retailer. Target ammo, SGA, Cabella's...not once.

Ugh...that stage. lol

I tell you what, unless I can find some factory 9mm at a reasonable price, our participation in events may be limited. I don't have reload equipment yet and so given the choice I may shoot steel only (22lr) and ration my supply of 9mm for practice sessions.

I shoot a Beretta 92 FS and have to keep my strong side thumb off the slide or I risk having it on the slide release and thus the slide won't lock back on last round. When I grip I try to put it on the first joint of my weak hand thumb. My weak side thumb rides the slide and is pointed at the target.

I'm not...I only used that as an example for the purpose of the discussion. I think more people should take advantage of the OGAM excemption process. Given the replies in this thread it seems to work for those who take the time to avail themselves of the process.

He's actually not "allowed" to run through the stages. I wanted him to get a bunch of experience walking them, and once he shows me that he can plan his stage strategy better, then I'll let him goose it a bit.

I commented to my son on the way home that this was the best USPSA match we've shot yet. Great crew to squad with and we shot pretty well for beginners. We really enjoy this stuff and it's nice to be welcome into the fold.
