P0832177: that is a great guide and I will forward it to my friend who is making the purchase for his dept, though (of course) it doesn't address specific ammunition questions. dfaugh: another good point in regards to the +p+ issue, I will have to find out how much faster the rounds are...

Re: FMJ vs. JHP, that's what I thought too, I figured that the hollow point would be EASIER to stop because it would expand more dramatically than a FMJ. The issue of the hollowpoint folding inward is maybe what they are alluding to, but no one came out specifically and said that. Good...

Yeah, I figured as much. I am suprised that ballistic armor reps would not be more clear on this issue. Some folks suggested that the "cutting petals" of the SXT round would somehow penetrate more...I wasn't convinced on that one either. Any of you out there have a "Friend of a friend" who...

An LE agency I am familiar with is testing out some new level 3A vests for their swat entry team. They asked for some sample panels to shoot for testing and evaluation. When the reps heard that some of the rounds to be shot included the Ranger SXT (the new/improved "black talon") they said that...

Born and raised in LA. LA Weekly is the manifesto for the "proletariat." Yes, I have had my letters published by them, oh, about 10 years ago, back when they were at least edgy. Now, if I wanted to get a "full body" massage in my hotel room, LA Weekly would be my first choice to find a...

Whilst cleaning my HK P7 I got caught up in scraping carbon desposit from strange places. One of them was a small hole located near the front end of the plunger (see this diagram http://hkp7.com/graphics/p7-manual_27_0001.jpg item number 20. I then managed to knock out pin 19 and LOSE IT! Any...

I push a black and white Ford Crown Vic around for a living. Oh, I have an F 150 and I am happy with it.

Yes, my 'net skillz are rusty (even though I have been pecking away at keyboards since just before Mosaic was the only browser), but can anyone provide a copy/link to the aforementioned videos?

Could someone please point me to the video if it is on the net of this incident? Nice picture Oleg, your casting decisions are great in that the model is attractive but not overly eroticized as some firearms posters are want to show, she looks competent!

Someone said to me recently, as I was shooting an HK 91, "Do you know what those notches are for on the outside edge of the flash-hider?" I replied that, indeed, I did not. He said, "They are there to allow the gun to be put up against a strand of barb wire, so that the bullet would be perfectly...

Me and the misses are gonna try to make the show tomorrow (Sunday) morning, buy some ammo for our shoot out feb 12. I will promise to wear a "Broken Horn" (horse supplies store) t-shirt, if that will help anyone spot me to say hullo. I'll let you guys suggest a color/outfit for my better...

Africa was (and in some ways continues) to be a hotbed of East vs. West proxy warfare. There are several books on the subject of Rhodesians wars, I encourage you to go to Amazon or Powells and type in "selous scouts" "rhodesia accuses" and other like terms. I was always impressed by the RLI...

The tac ranges are still pretty much just dirt berms. Some have picnic tables set up too. It is recommended that you bring in whatever you might need, including lawn chairs, tables, drink, etc. Middle of March, like sunday 12 or 19, is good for me, but I think we'll wait until after this...

yeppers, this month will have to be bifurcated! my spelling. march we will plan for a grand Kalif shoot out. Yes, we have lousy senators and terrible laws, we struggle mightily against, but we have some fine looking better halves and we'll have the pics to prove it. ok, so, let's keep this...

the main thing I like about the tac ranges is that you can be as NON tactical as you want. I would LOVE to shoot a blackpowder someday for instance, and the tac ranges let us just do things at our own pace. I am looking forward to the after action review from you guys out in Fish Canyon and...
