Combat Auto

Lots of respect for Sherrif Clarke...It would be good if all cops believe what he said and state as such... Here is his full interview...Common scense: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43MJyD6vPFg

Mine works the same way, I noticed from day 1 a year and a half ago...Crappy design...The politically correct BS so cops don't get false alarms (so if somen breaks in and smashes the main panel within a min or so NO alarm will go out)...The system is basically a "tonka-toy". Better than nothing, the lawn sign is probably the most effective thing :-)...I keep mine cause of the CO2 and smoke alarm which is monitored when I we are not home for our pets (supposidly no delay on these two items - they called me pretty quickly when I tested them)...For the regular burgarler sensors - cheeze it can be many, many mins. before they call.

I try to shoot every othere week... Generally, I bring two pistols, and shoot only one (less cleaning that weekend as I am a fanatic about having spotless firearms). I bring the second gun in case the first has a failure I can not clear at the range...(Exception, last shoot [which I posted] I shot 3 guns: XDs, Kimber Team Match, S&W 629 44mag - cause they are all still invarious break-in stage so I needed to put rounds through them). I shoot 200 rounds per trip...I follow a fairly firm plan of various "drills" -- double tap, head shots, up down, 1 handed, fast fire (usually get repremanded for fast fire by the RO), various distances, etc. -Mostly UPSA targets but some bullseye for old time sake... After about 230+ rounds - I start getting a "uphoric" high, not sure if it is the endorhpans or what, but it is not unlike the glow you get after a good, long, sexual encounter (opposite sex only for me :-))...At that point, although it is still loads of fun, and almost addictive - and you don't want to stop - your "muscles" get lil-mushy, and accuracy wains :-).

Safe company move safes...Few three hundred bucks...Spend the money and relax.

Dos: cheeze, you buttered us up so much for a response in your o-post - use some of the same skills....or say ur a doctor!...or flash the green....or show her your yacht...or tell her your an animal lover...take her dancing. Don'ts don't get married unless she has more money then you - not today in this county of lawyers. just don't say u r an introvert with a gun!

I agree with you guys that I need to get out there and see what works...I find the trejectory curves helpful as a starting point...Thanks again.

This is great - thanks again! This will be my first ever SG shoot. --- I have a New 870 tactical. - I will start with up 2" at 50 to give me an in vicinity 100y Zero (tweek after moving target out to 100 if needed)...

Thanks Everyone for your comments - esp. Parker...I will look at these links today... I am shooting remington sluggers...They have a trajectory chart on the side of the box..Looks like a 50 yard zero...-.1" (negligable) at 25 yards and -4.8 (essentially 5") at 100 yards (within the range you suggested above)....If I can find a slugger chart with a 100yards zero and compare to the 50 then I can decide...Thanks again.

What do you think of the 4" barrel accuracy? I have one in 45 and it is an very nice gun...But not as accurate as my 5" 1911s...And I am saying tightness of groups.

I have the Kimber Team Match II...Extreemly accurate - you likely have to go custom (wilson, bear, etc.) to get more accuracy (and pay much more)...Team match is a disticive frosted stainless pistol - right at your max price point...And if you don't get it in 45 - I will not speak with you anymore ;-).

The 1911 issue is easy to solve...Get the 1911 of your choice..Get Tripp 10 round 1911 mags (I have full size 1911; check to see what is available for other size 1911s)...The Tripp mags are the best of the best even better then Wilson mags which are also great.

I am wondering what folks shooting shotguns (with adjustable sights) for a while recomend for a zeroing distance (slugs)...I am torn btwn 50 and 100 yards. Any thoughts appreciated... Thanks. PS, i shoot at paper, steel, and prepare for that 1 in a million chance of a home invasion (nothing very exciting :-)).

Barring any special insight - what he said is encouraging...His response letters to us (we all got the same one) was encouraging also...This talk moves it even further in our favor...As I posted previously, I am hopping he uses the task force to stall, gets re-elected then vetoes most of the bills if not all in prep for his presidential run...Maybe he signs in a less inoculous bill or two to look balanced - who knows...I am encoraged for now. (this is far beyond a typical politically correct polotician's response!)

if you think it is appropriate to get paid overtime for reading e-mails, and sue the city when you don't, then we will never have a grown-up discussion....and yes, all gov't agencies should be looked at...pulling the "how dare you" card is a tool i expect more from the left - if that is you, god bless!

Chicago is full of curruption and misguided Liberal politicians...The ones that believe they can control behaivior through this, that, or the other ban, hand-out, etc., rather than holding criminals individually accountable. Get Rudy in their and he will clean it up just like he did in NYC years ago (although NYC never got as bad as Chicago by a long shot)...Rudy was on Fox recently and said this more or less - the key to success is to lock up the bad guys. Also, I don't know what is going on with the Chicago Police - apathy maybe? Leadership gap maybe? But something smells "fishy". Maybe they are too busy suing the City because they read e-mails after work hours and didn't get overtime - see link - you can't make this stuff up! More concern about boosting their bloated pensions then going after bad guys? Just saying - somthing very smelly in "My kind of town - Chicago is". http://abcnews.go.com/Business/chicago-police-officer-sues-hoping-overtime-pay-blackberry/story?id=18432865

Great!

Respect! Glad I bought my 870 with Magpul trim even more (payed ~double the reg 870 price, byt I am very, very pleased with what I got and WHO i got it from).

+10...You folks bashing the use of "god" need to wisen-up...The socialist/liberal/collectiveism movement likes to marginalize god. Why? Because they believe the "State"/government is the final authority...Once they have the populous lined up with this belief they can literally do whatever they want to us...Look at Cuoma and his latest abortion law. It is babarick (no respect for life)... Now the left-leaders will not come out and say they are all atheiests (although some have) because that is too obvious...The way they change people's values/beliefs is slowly. First by changing the meanings of words and by telling you what you can say and not say (hey, just like the OP is doing :-))...Sorry my friend, I get my values from the Lord - not the government, not hollywood, not the liberal press...

Watch "Shindler's List" again - should be mandetory watching for every fee citizen while they are still free...The point is not that Obama may do it; the point is that some day, some evil tyrant may do it...Yes, it can happen here...And if we do not stand our ground today, generations down the road may suffer...This is for all Americans to follow...Obama should sign an Executive Order making all American's watch this movie once per year! ;-)...And maybe his wife can repeat her "Oscar" apperance next year and talk about the movie and the dangers of a repressive state, singling out a class of citizens (did you say "Gun Owners"?), enslavemen, and of course out-right murder...Cheeze, by time this (may) happen they can do it all via robots and make it even more politicaly correct....Sadly, it can happen here or anywhere giving the right circumstances, given apathetic citizens, given a biased press (rather then a free press), giving an evil leader. - Some day of course.

You POV needs to be substatiated...Did you do a poll, or is just your "IMHO" (maybe your Uncle Bb said this ;-))?...Even if you had a poll to "prove" your POV. I would still say it is my GGR to self defense...Do you actualy think you are going to change anything by pandering to the left? Haven't you tried that long enough? See where it has gotten "us"?...Time for pandering is over...Get outraged and offended (it has worked well for the left). And DEMAND you GGR to self defense!!!

FO Sites beet any iron sights I have - even after I nail polished the iron sights on several pistols hot-pink..The hot pinked helped alot - but the FO on one pistol I have beats them...This goes at any apples to apples lighting level...In complete dark use a light laser combo.

Nice!!!!

+1 LOL!

Not sure what your motivation for your post was - sounds like you wanted to get flammed...The country is going down the toilet fast...Cheeze look at what that Barbarian in NYS just passed...The media is controlled by the left wing more so now then ever. The political propaganda machine is running 24X7 - now on even more distribution channels...There is alot to get excited about...In fact, part of the reason things have got so bad is that decent people havn't got excited enough...Read "Bullies" by Ben Shaparo - maybe it will snap you out of "it".
