I think we generally are all on the same side, and just as passionate as can be about our liberties. We are in a bad spot after decades of media painting all owners or segments of us in the same brush stroke. While there are some on the other side that just can't be reached there are those we...

Well trying to not make assumptions but if you think you can take someone with a revolver or less than ten shots, again that is great. What I also stated and what is a very real situation is that its very common for there to be multiple people breaking in to a house, robbing a store or waylaying...

Good to see the assumptions are coming out here. I no where made any insinuations you or anyone here does not own a fire arm. This as I recall was to engage in a discussion with those that may not own a firearm, or understand various complexities of what makes a magazine different in one context...

This I think is some of the hard headed aspects that Justin was commenting on not helping the cause or explaining the situation. Generally most of us in this forum understand this. That is not the point, nor is it the point of trying to reach those that refuse to grant that what you just said...

So again, why would anyone military or police "Need" this item over and above anyone else? If there is a 66% miss rate as you state and by this one articles reporting that means what to creating a compelling argument against citizens owning the same items? Also noted in this to increase the...

Well, that is an average count. By reported professionals. We, on the civilian side are not "professionals" And 3.6 per incident? I would be interested in this quoted study. Is this 3.6 per person? Gosh, I suppose my five shot revolver is enough for that if I'm a professional marksman, but what...

My Counter Argument. There is a few things I've noticed that you have to take in account with these arguments. The first is pick your targets for lack of better words(And not to make a pun) There are people that genuinely know in their hearts and minds that no one should own a fire arm. Or...

Well, lets see... I suppose one advantage of being in Iraq in 09 is I did not get acutely affected by the shortage. On my internet adventures when I had the rare chance I was able to buy all the reloading supplies I wanted, except for the actual powder and primers. I came home and in 2010 I...

This is a good point to make. Oh yeah, The music now is so much more terrible than the previous generations, and the previous one before that, and that and that.. Who can forget about the companies that make different colored paint to apply to firearms?! Or sell firearms that are...

As others have stated, a re-engineered M1 Rifle may not have the best reliability. Some folks say put 100 rounds though your SD weapon. Others say 250, 500, or 1000 to assure it will not malfunction. That's a lot of money on what is not well regarded to be a weapon that does not require a lot of...

Good to see things like they are. Seems two years ago this time you could not get primers to save your skin anywhere you looked.

Spring material is the key there. The reliability problems we had with the M9 Magazines from about 2000 to late 2005 was attributed supposedly to the improper finishing on the inside of the magazine itself. However I disagree with the DOD's assessment of it having spent thousands of hours in...

Coming from Wisconsin (at least for a day or two longer) I would agree with his assessment. Most of the folks in my rural area are either not concerned about it, or will find carrying and maintaining the awareness of where you can carry and not, what stores will allow it and not will get old...

What others have said, Parts are parts for lower receivers. I get mine from Surplus Ammo as others have. Worked great. Tight fitting and slick operating. However the DPMS trigger kits are just that. Starting kits. Splurge on a great trigger and you wont care what color, brand or pictures are on...

Must be in the water Hondo60 About ten years ago I bought a few boxes of .45 acp ammo with out having a pistol.. Told the lady at the time that I could not return the ammo! I had to have a pistol to shoot it! Now I find I'm doing the same to myself with brass I'm acquiring....

There seems to be two different trains of thought here. There is the OP's topic that the AR platform has won. I'm going to assume like others have posted due to its popularity that is what Won means. Not that it is outright superior to everything out there every time, just that that is what...

I think some of it was because of Obama and the Democrat majority. Many posters here said that it is not the POTUS that does things, its the Senate and House. Who held those super majorities again in 08? Oh No one is going to pass any serious anti gun legislation? Not ever again after 94? I...

It will be the M9 at least for the reserve type of units. Everytime they do a trial for new pistols or say they might look, they want similar things. Ideally something with an external hammer. Ideally something that has a decocker in it. They have entertained .45 ACP a few times as a...

Prices for just about everything are though the roof, though right now they have some fair deals for hunting season on package rifle deals. I've not bought any ammunition form them in over a year. My personal one here in Green Bay is.. shall we say betting on the uninformed for purchasing these...

Modern pistols can pretty easily digest NATO 9mm rounds. The only pistols I would be even remotely concerned are pistols that are stated to not be rated for +P or +P+ ammunition variants, like keltec's PF9 I think it is. Even those you can practice with occasional +P. As others have stated...
