    Using slide release or pulling slide back

    I have an old Glock 17 where the previous owner used to use the slide release. Now, all I have to do is slam the mag home and the slide releases itself! :D

    You DO know it, and it DOES look that way to you. But if you have convince yourself otherwise so you can feel superior to some idiot anti then there’s really nothing more to say because to continue would be like...well...arguing with an anti.

    Again, not only are you missing the point, but you have strayed so far from the original issue at hand that you’ve come full circle and now agree with my point. Attributes exist. Insults and labels are opinions of the insulters or labelers. Insults and labels cannot be attributes. And...

    Are you serious??? The term “bimbo” is nothing but insult. It is not a parameter or category of any kind whatsoever. To say it is the same as height, weight, or race demonstrates incredible insensitivity and belligerence toward women. And therein lies the problem with your erroneous...

    Yes, but you're missing the point that "bimbo" is not a group. It is an insult. Of course it does. You are a man. You are a gun owner. You are a dumbass. The first two are purely descriptive, while the third is purely insulting. You cannot possibly interpret them all the same way...

    "Fruit," in your context, is not an insult. Also, your action of simply existing is far removed from the action at issue, making your example quite dissimilar to the questioned text.

    Yes, it does. The reason it does is because the term “bimbo” is not an actual classification of a person, such as tall, short, single, married, man or woman. The term “bimbo” is an insult. Some kind of action or behavior is usually required to earn such an insult. In your text, the suggested...

    Typical liberal Democrat...they pull “solutions” out of their heads (or other places) and believe in them so much that they quickly accept their own mental masturbations as fact. There’s just no point in answering a person like that. However, do you really say, "Strong Women Own...

    model 41 .22 vs. Sig Trailside Competition .22

    Hmmm...I guess he's still not taking new customers. Here's his website: http://www.falconmachining.com/ There's this message on there: Guess he's still working on his backlog? :confused: In any case, you shouldn't do anything until you are intimately familiar with your gun’s every...

    model 41 .22 vs. Sig Trailside Competition .22

    Get the 5 ½”. The sight radius on guns with 7” barrels is too long. This creates two significant problems that interfere with accurate sighting. First, when you focus on the front sight, the rear sight is more out of focus with a 7” barrel than a 5 ½” barrel. The extra fuzziness makes it...

    Yeah, but legally...

    It must be your shoot-to-kill look and bad-boy ways. Maybe if you went to church more often... ;)

    The High Road or The Firing Line?

    That pretty much says it all. That's certainly how I found THR. Back then THR membership paled in comparison to TFL. But now THR has more active members, and that contributes to a more active forum. But the thing that makes the biggest difference for me is the THR’s “high road” philosophy...

    model 41 .22 vs. Sig Trailside Competition .22

    My M41 has been perfect out of the box. The trigger is great and there are no mechanical issues like rear sight falling off. It's a great gun.

    9mm vs. 45acp recoil

    I think it’s just you. ;) To me, my all steel 1911 has a more powerful recoil than my Glock 17.

    Sportman's Warehouse

    I've bought lots of guns from them. Very good prices. Just know what you want before you go.

    Where is the proof?

    This is a perfect example of why it’s so difficult to get meaningful knowledge from statistics. First, the numbers include property crime. For 2003 there were 330,565 property crimes and 51,550 violent crimes. So the bulk of the values presented have nothing to do with crime that can be...

    Where is the proof?

    There is none. There are two important facts to note, however. The first is that crime in all states seems to go up and down by similar percentages, indicating that socio-economic forces have far more to do with crime than anything else. Second, concealed carry has nothing to do with...

    Duty to retreat?

    Exactly. In fact, In New York City the only way to get a carry license is if you have to protect money as part of your job.

    Duty to retreat?

    Yes, it's only money. But for a vast majority of the country, money = life. Someone working for 47 years making minimum wage will earn just over 1/2 million before taxes. Even a million dollars isn’t a lot when it has to be spread over 47 years. Such a person is likely to be living paycheck...

    Fending off attacks from less-than-lethal weapons

    In New York a person can meet a robbery attempt with lethal force. It doesn’t matter whether the perp is armed or not. Now if they would only allow us to carry something that can readily apply lethal force...:(
