+2 on school marshells - please make sure they carry arma pearcing rifle rounds...May nee at least 2 per school...Lot'a jobs.

Agree with the above, that you can't point to any one thing as cause of this...But without a moral center - we are all dommed...Dosn't mean you have to pray to statues...Does mean there is a right and wrong, and we need to teach our kids what exactly that means...But it is an overall sociatal change that is now leaning too far to secularism, non-responsibility, no moral judjement, lack of responsability (e.g., parents), excuses for behavior, that is helping paint a tapaestry (or appedemic as Grossman calls it) - worldwide (not just in USA) of attrocities by mostly young people...The fact that they usually (not always) use guns - puts the gun community in the mix (right or wrong)... So the Gun Community (should) put forth the effort to propose solutions and point to the "root cause" rather than be just on the defensive....Morality/Sprituality, Parental responsibility, Regulating video games (like we regulate pornography) for minors, giving carry perits to responsible citizens (to aid and protect until Cops arrive), mental health awarness, and yes - as a last resort - even implimenting smart technology in weopons to alert authorities in special circumstances...These are all areas that need to be explored. I don't buy the attitude that "life is full of danger and we can't do anything about it"...We need to make every effort to protect children (they can't do it on their own)...It will take a very long time for this to happen, but we need to start somewhere. Right now we are on the wrong track.

Dave Grossman was just on Fox...He has it right and warned of this several years ago...It is the discusting video game industry teching our kids how to kill..He said this! He is the formost leader in the military/law inforcment industry on the phchology of killing...This is where Oboma needs to concentrate...That, and bringing the Lord back into our society...A Godless society is not good for anyone...These kids have a spiritual vacume, which is filled by the animals motivated by money making videos, not to mentioned some of the ultra-exteemly violent movies.

Don't live life that way - live with positive expectations...We can't give 6 year olds carry permits - so in this case, society has a responsibility (and belive me, I am strictly an individualist, small government dude).

Man one of the farthers of a dead girl - did a press conference today...Obviously in shock...Reached out to the killers familly with love (I couldn't do that, so God bless him)... This killer was possesed by the devil, forget crazy, this guy was evil incarnated...He shot mostly 3-6 year olds - some 8 to 11 times.... As bad as 911 was, this in some ways is worse...Something seriously wrong with our society if we can't keep the most innocent among us, new borns almost, safe in school... Although this Evil, Evil, killer has no connection with us, I hope, as a member of the the gun community, we do our part (whatever that may be), in working so that this dosn't happen again.

BTW I have a Sig 1911 Tacops Traditional in 45 - very nice gun...Just be ware the trigger out of the box was horrible. But after 1000 rounds it is so sweet! All these guns requier break-in - especially the all steel variety...Not saying your sig will have same start up issue - but just an FYI.

After 8 momths as my ever growing gun collection grows, I upgraded from my starter safe to a Fort Knox Protector 6026 in Jet Black Gloss... Exceeded my high starting expecations...Beautiful, functional, and fire rated for 1.5 hours...The construction is quire incredable... I can't say enough about it... Just figure I'd pass along in case anyone is in safe market... -Joe

Good Luck - clean and Lube first...Beuty of a gun - love the Anchor being X-Navy...Too bad they don't make it in 45 cal - I would add it to my quickly growing collection.

Folks, I got some very stiff brash bore brushes from brownells..Suppose to clean things out quicker then the softer brass brushes...Anyone use the stiffer brushes before and any risk to the bore with these? Thanks, -JOe

Dude, I didn't spend 5 months doing a detailed design and business plan...Point is, Gun Comunity needs to be open minded about solutions...Also I said "long term solution"...This is straight forwrad technology...You make a good point about response time though. Maybe schol doors are locked up and sirenes go off as early warning till cops arrive...Everything helps...Think possibilities! Once you have a stategy, work the details...That is how we design stuff in the real world...What is your bright idea, or don't you want to get past your gun rights dogma?

Mental health reform is important too ..I am on board...Also think the culture needs to be looked at...Extreemly violent video games, colapsing values, etc....Guns have been around a long time - but these crazy shootings seem to be more and more frequent...Need to look at all dimensions...We need to do our part in the Gun community too (if we don't public will turn on us)...

Your words reflect your closed mind on this...Obama will be usuing this event to take your rights away. Did you hear his press confrence today? And every parent with a kid in school will be on his side. This is the big one...Think it can't happen? KNow anyone who lives in NY city - ask them...Having a chip in your gun vs. having no gun, or not having certain guns may be a blessing in years to come. NRA needs to get out in front of this...Chip goes off if you go near a school...Why would you have an issue with that?...What is your bright idea?

This is so sad - it is heart breaking...What a coward of a scumbag to go after kids.... This may be the straw that really helps the ani-gun nutz....I'd like to see the NRA get ahead of this - cause the storm is comming...Somthing needs to be done, we can not allow our kids to be slaughtered in school...Best if NRA helps define solutions before the anti-gun nutz do...As a long-term solution, how about something like a chip in every gun, which sends am alarm to police if a nut-job goes near a school? Lets apply some technology so we can help to keep kids safe - but at the same time maintain our freedoms. We need to think out of the box.

Small miricles, after calling Kimber a second time and telling them I put 500 Rounds of Ball through the Team Match, and that thier mag still will not drop, they gave me an rma # and a return "sticker"...Just got the replacement mag yesterday and it drops out fine... Now I just need my "competition"/thick base pad back (they sent me a mag without one) - so third call to kimber this morning and the rep said he would put it and 2 screws in mail today. Team Matach is breaking in real-fine; I can see that it has more intrinsic accuracy capability than my sig 1911; Trigger on the kimber will soften-up more over next 500 rounds I believ.

Using 8 round wilsons for a while and they live up to their reputation... Got a 10 round wilson about a month ago - and dosn't work as smothly as the wilson 8s...Some feeding issue, and just not that silky smothness you have in the 8 rounders. Tried the Tripp mags very recently...The 8s are at least on par with the wilsons...Silky smoth - no feeding issues. Here is the kicker: The 10 round Tripps are noticably better then the 10 round wilsons...Smother by quite a bit, no feeding issues. I know this is just 1 sample but like the Tripp so much I ordered another 10 rounder which is becoming my favorate mag for the range.

Ken, At SG-Amo I was inquiring about their 500 round bulk Remington 45 cal UMC FMJ....Sam's reply is below, note his reference to "some brass jacketed bullets in the loose". thanks, -Joe From Sam: It is basically the same stuff, UMC 45 230 grain FMJ brass case. The only difference is that I have seen some brass jacketed bullets in the loose, where as the boxed was typically copper jacketed. All that said I do not shoot it so I do not have that experience to comment on. We have sold a large quantity of both and no performance issues brought to our attention to date

Folks, Any difference btwn the two for: 1) Accuracy (all things equal)? 2) Wear on bore? 3) Cleaning bore? Thanks, -Joe

Toung-'n-cheek my Frineds - of course Harry dodn't wear nail polish ;-).

I'm pissed I had to miss it... About how many shooters showed up? What time di you start shooting? What time did you finish shooting?

Yes, I cold tell it wasn't nail polish...Nail polish is much easier anyway it seems (nice video though)...

Wow, First time I watched the first Dirty Harry movie since I started shooting in spring...Although I have seen the movie umpteen times before, this is the very first time I noticed he has a redish front sight post on his 44 magnum handgun...Amazing what you can observe when your conciousness is trained...Well, evidently Harry was ahead of his time, and partially why he was able to blow away so many Bad Guys! For those of you who "paint" the back of your front sight, we are on right track with our nail-polish ;-)...It has made a difference in the consistancy of my shooting on my Sig-1911. With Harry's insperation I think I am going to nail-polish my PX4 and Kimber Team Match also as well as my M1A....Here's to Harry and Nail Polish for "making my day"!

Folks, For those of you running all steel pistols - what is best way to clean carbon and what not off of and condition the steel outside of the pistol? Thanks, -Joe

Am I correct that this is table shooting - no holsters?
