DC cops will arrest for empty shell casings
In her newly debuted book about the difficulty getting a gun in Washington, known for tough anti-gun laws, D.C. Police provided Miller with a copy of a recent "roll call" advisory that tells cops to overlook spent casings in the cars and trucks of city residents who have their gun registration certificate with them when detained, despite the law. It's saying not to arrest, still stupid though

I don't know if something was lost here but it's a 23, a compact with 13 rounds and I also have 22 mags with 15 rounds right by it. I'm glad to see there are others on here that agree with me. Vlad, I do have a nice ar but for my home defense, spur of the moment I'm sticking with a handgun. In a shtf or like a post sandy situation with looting I'm then keeping that handy with my glock as a side arm Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 4- Prank Calls

What lead me to my decision to swap was a false alarm. First thing a did when I grabbed the gun was rack the slide and after I found everything to be okay that's when it sunk in that I was still holding a weapon with the safety on. After that my brain started turning about the "what ifs". I can't even argue that it's lack of training with the px4 with engaging and disengaging the safety. Maybe I'll have to look into a class or two and practice like you said. And to anyone who reads this.... I am always open to suggestions and take constructive criticism very well. Just try to be gentle, I do have a heart. I do appreciate your response but I'm not in the market to buy a new gun, yet. I do like the M&P and a mag safety feature would not bother me. Safeties in general don't bother me but after that false alarm i started to question if I would have taken it off if it was needed.- Home Defense Gun Swap
No offense taken. I have no problem with the DA pull. I actually like that and I'm very accurate with it. It's the whole worrying about forgetting to disengage the safety. The hard trigger pulls don't bother me that's why I changed the connectors back to stock on the Glock. I probably made my edit while you typing about not liking to leave the safety off b/c it puts it in SA mode.- Home Defense Gun Swap
So after approximately 9 months of having my Beretta PX4 Compact 9mm cuddling me to sleep every night I decided to go back to my trusty Glock 23. I've been debating this for a while now and I'll explain my theories and ideas I use choosing a home defense tool. My guns are kept in a safe at all times and when I am not home my HD Gun is in a safe also. However when I am home my HD Gun is generally accessible (not in a safe) with 5 seconds but without one in the chamber due to having children in the house. (I'll clarify this by stating it's unloaded, up high (7ft) and its in my view and if an adult isn't in the room it comes with me) Now my reason for swapping. I love the PX4 for HD because the way it shoots but this is where I decided it's not worth it. I would leave the gun with the safety on and unloaded. God forbid a reasons creeps up to use it the I have to rack the slide and then disengage the safety and then I have the long, hard D/A pull. Very unlikely to N.D. Here's what I didn't like about it. It has a safety that in a panic situation I might forget to flip off. Hence my reason for switching HD Guns. ADDED AFTER POST- I thought about leaving the safety off but I don't like how it leaves it in SA. To me it's like cocking a revolver in a HD situation which everything a read is a "No Go" Now to the Glock. It did have a 3.5# connector but I removed it and went back to the standard factory connector. My reasoning was if I was ever involved in a HD situation I didn't want that to come up that I modified the trigger on the weapon. Here's what I'm looking on opinions for: If you had to decide between the PX4 compact 9mm vs the Glock 23 (40), which would you go with and why? Now I'm sticking to my guns( Pun intended) and keeping the stock connector in there. Do you think I'm over thinking this and why? Thanks for your opinions- Petition against Executive Action

I can't speak for a glock model but I had that holster when I had the Beretta Nano and I will say it was better than any of the Uncle Mike's. I had no complaints, Good material, incredibly strong belt clip. I'd say for the price to give it a try.- I hate to say it, but I love the Glock
Glocks........... nah!! I don't know why I'm even considering a 34 or 35 right now.- If the US was invaded
Hypothetically speaking. If something were to go down I think about it like this. If you control the east coast you control a lot. You have major communication hubs in New Jersey. You take control of that you can slow down the rest of the country. Just my opinion Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 4- If the US was invaded
If they were smart NJ/NY. They would know that majority of the citizens can't carry and we would be sitting ducks with all of the restrictive laws. Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 4- Civilian, Non-Law Enforcement Carry Permit Aplication Help

Was actually in there tonight. They have a pretty solid rifle and shotgun selection. Handgun selection isn't that great but I just that depends on what your looking for. They have plenty have magpul AR mags. I thought I saw pinned 20's and 30's. No 9 and I believe no 22lr. But looked like plenty of 223 and 40.- Newest Members
