    Osprey 45 question

    Recently acquired an Osprey 45. I use a 92FS, Glock 19 and 21 for hosts. Usually shoot 147 grain Winchesters JHP, have shot some 115 gr and 124 gr FMJ but with the velocities not as pleasant. This weekend I shot about 50 rounds then removed the suppresser and shot for another hour without it...

    Recommend a .380acp

    I have a DB380. Like carrying it because it is easy to carry and incredibly small. I've never had trouble with mine with 95gr ball or JHP. I know some people hate them but I like it and the DB9. The .380 is not hard to shoot at all, the DB 9mm has the stoutest recoil of any gun I own. DB9...

    Insurance and arming teachers

    There aren't the only school in the area doing this. At least one of the other school has furnished weapons.

    Insurance and arming teachers

    "There is a huge difference between a school district "arming teachers" and not restricting the right to carry by teachers. I don't think any school actually provides a gun for teachers."...

    Trying to figure out when we gave full control to .gov

    Read the Forgotten Man. Evens FDR's own people said they had made things worse near the end. Much of FDR's NewDeal was struck down by the courts. Just took to long. By the time it was struck down people had come to accept it. Health Care will likely be the same but on a much grander scope.

    Trying to figure out when we gave full control to .gov

    First - was Herbert Hoover not J. Edgar. Back it up to the Wilson administration. Correlates to the Constitutional Ammnedments for direct election of Senators and the income tax. That, to me, was the point in time where America began to allow the government to have a heavy hand in governing...

    Building a new bench

    Here is a quick overview of what I built. The link shows a good representation of the 2 base cabinets. Leave a 24-30 in space between the two base cabinets. Once set the outside edges need to be max of 8' wide - because plywood comes in 8' lengths. For the top you can use 3/4" plywood or a...

    Building a new bench

    Holy incredible over engineering!! Will it handle stresses of a loading press - yes and then some. It'll work but you can build something far less material and accomplish the same thing.

    So I've got a year...

    How do you think they will react when they realize a person can have 8 rounds in a gun, with a 7 round mag with one in the chamber? That's not what they intended - even though thats what they wrote. This will be likely to anger them. They will have to rewrite there laws to correct the...

    Walmart: " is this ammo for a handgun"?

    I tell them "no" every time reguardless the caliber. Rarely has anyone even noticed my repsonse past entering it into the computer as they check me out. I've thought about telling the cashier a box of shotgun shells is for a handgun just to see how they'd respond. I'm guessing they wouldn't...
