Thanks for the further input on the swc's...I really do like the clean holes they punch, fell in love after I was pasting another competitors swc holes at my first IDPA match and started using them for my 1911. Thought I'd reap the benefits in my new PPQ but I had a 10% failure with them. I...

I've only had FTF's with SWC's. Hollow points and FMJ FP's have all fed reliably. It sure doesn't like the 155gr swc though...

Shop around....you can get a RIA tactical from centerfiresystems for $ 450 shipped and transfered. The options that gun comes with makes the springfield gi not even close.

Traded a few snakes for a Remington 788 carbine 243

For the naysayers of a weapon stored in the bathroom it might interest you to know that 911 operators are trained to direct people into their bathroom in the event of a home invasion.

Nicky, no prosecutor being an ass here, Just an anti gun detective. Thanks for your service on the jury though :)

Not confused Old Fuff, I followed up your comments on the other thread with a lot of research on the Tiarht Amendment. And like you said, "if the gun is part of a criminal investigation". This gun was not part of a criminal investigation, it was found property, and no suspicion of criminal...

It was fine, I was actually impressed with how they packaged it. No case numbers engraved anywhere either ;)

I did get it back yesterday, sans 9 rounds of federal hydra-shok. The lady working the evidence building was polite and prompt. I didn't have to wait for the background check because thankfully they had it on file in the computer. Even though I have my gun back I'm not letting this rest...

It worked guys, got this letter on Friday! Thanks for all the help and support guys. I'll be picking it up on my lunch break tomorrow.

I prefer Tonkin cane arrows, the have a natural FOC advantage due to the natural taper of cane. They are generally tougher than POC and I love the way they look. They also stay straighter once they are straightened. Here is a half dozen with snake skin cresting that I made last year for a...

1911's aren't inherently unreliable and I find that notion kind of silly. But if you are skeptical I don't think anyone can convince you otherwise and you need to be able to trust your equipment. If you don't like double stack auto's I would reccomend a West German Sig P220. If I couldn't...

Bought a Springfield xdm-40 3.8 a few weeks back nice gun but should of got a 1911. And the last one wasn't purchased it was traded for...a remingtom 788 .243 carbine. Neat lil rifle.

@Gibson es, so glad to hear that your baby is going to be okay. The extra sonograms where icing on the cake for us...It was nice to see my baby girl that often before she was born...made me really feel like I knew her already when she finally came out:) Good luck and I hope her pregnancy goes...

I had said the same thing mgkdrgn, she claimed she had done the check but for some reason the result wasn't on file and she'd have to do it again. Nice huh... Armoredman, I'm quite taken aback by the whole thing too. My wife actually is in a non sworn position with TPD but that carries no...

Thanks for the support guys. pwhfirefighter, I'm sorry to hear that you have gone through having a child deal with serious medical issues. You are absolutely right about how they cope though. My daughter is such a happy little girl and although I sometimes see her frustrated with her...

OldFluff, The BATFE check is on the weapon, not on me. Not sure if that matters. I've never heard of that being done, and thought the buck stopped at NCIC checks.

Armoredman, Thanks about my daughter. We will continue to have a lot of stuff to deal with but she has come a long way and the biggest hurdles are past us now. :) As far as becoming AZ POST certified...in hindsight I should have stayed in NM another 9 months. AZ will do lateral...

janedoedad, I was a police officer in NM.

Elm Creek Smith, I go to meet her on my lunch hour today, I will update everyone when I get back. Thanks Orion. Bobson, I'd prefer not to share the specific department but I can tell you it's a much bluer area of the state than Maricopa County... Her mentioning the registration...
