Lots of good information so far. It sounds as though you have a cornocopia of good styles to choose from. I would sugest basing my descision on how well I got along with the instructor. I don't care if someone is teaching the greatest MA in the world, if you don't get along...

I always thought the first rule of tactics was awarness. If you don't know what is going on how can you know what to do?

You can tell it's an election year, it's hard to get a staight answer to a simple to understand question. FORGET the state mandate parts of the question, that was just to put it into perspective. The question is really what are the min. marksmenship skills you think...

OK I get your all's point and agree with you about the political and moral issues involved. I guess I am just trying a new take on the 'how good is good enough' idea. I really believe that we make things much more complicated than we have to sometimes. To put it another...

Just curious what the lightest MBR in 7.62NATO is. Most of the ones I am familiar with aproach 10lbs.

Jason @ 9x19, what kind of times / score would you require on those stages?

If you were in charge in your state and were told you had to set the course of fire / standards for CCW holder's to pass (and yes they must qual.). What would your course of fire be? Remember, not all CCW holders are gun enthusiasts or athletic. This is also assuming someone else is...

BUG in a car? Think ankle holster! I normally carry 2 guns only when I'm planning to be in the car a lot. I can reach it with either hand easily, and can draw without anyone knowing it. It also doesn't get forgotten in the car when I get out. Your right about hammerless. My...

the biggest problem is ammo avalability. It's not something that you can walk into a sporting goods store and buy. It's a very good round if loaded properly (see above). Just not much selection.

I think it falls into one of those useful/good idea catagories. But not nesessary. It is a matter of being very familiar with your equipment (always a good idea). It probably won't make the difference in SD, but then again it might (why take the chance?) Just my opinion, you got...

Didn't Smith make some of their 45's DOA and slick side? They are all single stacks. George, a lot of people who love the 1911 style guns are mandated by policy to carrya DA/SA or DOA pistol. The LDA is a great gun for people like this. Not everyone gets to carry...

Weather you would ever need it in the park or not, I still don't like the idea of leaving my pistol in my car for anyone to break into and steal. I believe in having control of gun at all times.

I've been reading about how Kimber uses MIM parts, and was wondering if Para did. If so what parts are MIM ?

I keep a SG in the closet for HD as a backup / heavy artillary. (My main weapon is a handgun). I've always keep it loaded with buck (latley, tac.00) and keep a few rounds of slug in the cuff just in case. I've been wondering why bother with buck at all and not go with just...

I've been using a Waller bag for the past 8 years and it still looks new. The inside partitions are fully adjustable and/or removable so you can carry what you want with full protection. They are not cheap, but in my opinion they are worth every penny.

I thought the curve was to allow a better field of view, while still allowing max. protection.

Just curious, what is average distance you've taken deer, and what is the farthest distance? I'm guessing most are under 100yds, and very few over 300yds. My main reason for asking is to know what ranges to practice at the most, and to help in scope selection. (please no...

I think they started getting away from wide/grooved triggers when police started doing all there shooting double action. You are right about the wide grooved trigger feeling better for single action work, but the number of gun buyers who understand that and could take advantage of...

Can someone post the specs on the 6.8mm ? Standard bullet weights, velocity, parent case ect. This is a new one to me.

Pistol mags, no, but it is a good idea depending on your needs. The spare ammo on the SG are slugs to back up the buckshot for more penetration and range.
