:rolleyes: Project much? You are as clueless as to my character, knowledge and ability as the moon is, on any subject; your comments assume a knowledge and foresight that you are clearly ignorant of. The High Road indeed. C-

And you have absolutely no clue that I just don't care about *your* opinion on the matter; we can play what-if's all the doggone day long. Mr. Suarez is not politically correct in either societal or training issues of the day or in the training he provides-much of which is tactic-oriented...

And if you believe that a trainer's testimony is some kind of magic talisman against legal or civil liability then your reality is not one I'm familiar with, in theory or otherwise. C-

Then you have the freedom to not do so. Isn't freedom grand? I wouldn't expect anyone other than me to defend my actions in court, to my family or God; anything and everything I may or may not do is my personal decision and responsibility and no one elses. Pawning off responsibility to a...

As far as the 1911 safety issue, I am a 1911 guy, and flipping the safety off is a natural part of the draw to me as breathing, and I had no issue with that during the class-and have the blister to prove it :); my new all-metal airsoft 1911's reliability in general was another thing...

First, I'm no expert, nor do I claim to be. That said, it's not just his experience; I was there in the class too and can wholeheartedly say that I never saw my sights the entire class. Not once. Not kidding. The action/drills happened so fast (like they do in real life eh?) it was all I could...

Bitching about US import issues aside, I am an American gun owner, and you don't speak for me. Specifically because of this and the fact that Steyr isn't exactly a unsuspecting victim here IMO, I will not consider purchasing any Steyr product over and above my personal perception of thier...

My kingdom for a P7m8; I just can't seem to bring myself to justify the cost however, despite my best efforts to convice myself otherwise. I go through periods where I obsess at selection, scheme of ways to pay, then painfully come to the conclusion the price isn't justified. Sigh. When...

Unlike many other CZ's, that pistol got hit by the ugly stick. Twice. C-

Simply, the 1911 platform with regard to CCW is exceedingly less forgiving of mediocre to poor gear than just about any other platform out there. That said, I carry several flavors of steel 1911's easily and very comfortably-12 hour comfort that is-in VMII's (or my W6) secured with Wilderness...

Neat looking, and I like to see new firearm innovation, something Keltec seems to do a goodly amount of to which I applaud them. That said, even near the MSRP being spoken of here can buy a heck of a nice M1A or FAL or .308 AR and leave a whole lot left over for ammo. C-

Mr. Hairless is wise; Loctite is added to sights sometimes to help keep them in place and generally requires the use of heat to remove whatever it's applied to. Like others, I've had at least one rear sight almost fly right off that had only a locking screw keeping it on; it's adjustable...

Who the real guilty party here is? Huh? Are you delusional? I saw with my own two eyes, upfront and personal, exactly the kind of tyrant he was and exactly the kind of things he and his minions were capable of-outside his own land even. He was most assuredly, an evil, bad guy. And the...

I'm a member of VCDL and think WTG! here too, but am doggone puzzled why the police were not called right then and there, and why someone (bank employee maybe?) didn't at least watch the guy for license plate info, etc. C-

A 5" 1911 simply isn't an issue with a good belt and holster; it simply isn't. A good holster and belt can successfully, or almost so, make one forget it's even on one's body-really, it's that secure and comfortable. I have a several of 1911's from officer to government in size, and they all...
