    22 magnum as a self defense round

    What? Nobody has made any 5.7x28 jokes yet? It is supposed to be the same as .22magnum. ;)

    Which modern shootouts changed the way we think?

    Maybe you should go read "No Heroes" and "Cold Zero" for starters. Books by folks who were there. You still have not defended your overly stupid comment that the "egos on HRT" kept them from waiting out Koresh. They waited far longer than appropriate, but you clearly have an axe to grind...

    Which modern shootouts changed the way we think?

    Are you kidding me?? Where do you get your information? HRT and all involved were more than patient. They went in because Koresh was about to start killing his own folks. You might want to do some research before jumping to exceptionally stupid assumptions like that. It is done that way...

    Which modern shootouts changed the way we think?

    Can you please expand upon this statement? Especially since you bolded part of it. You might want to do some more research. The people who scribbled out a new lethal force policy on the way to RR did so w/o any authority. The snipers and agents on scene knew this and did the correct thing -...

    Does Universal allow off-duty LEOs to enter armed?

    Favorite carry holster

    No matter how hot it gets my guns disappear under a t-shirt in the McDaniel II from Andrews Leather. It hides a full size (steel) Para P14-45, a G22, etc. The steel mouth will NOT collapse when you draw the gun. The belt loops are interchangable for size (my casual gun belt is wider than my...

    Securing your CCW in a Hotel Room

    I would take it with me to the party, but I'm stubborn like that. If you absolutely have to leave it in the room... disassemble the gun and take a key piece with you (barrel is a good one). Hide the parts in different areas. If you have a cable lock or cuffs, use it to secure the slide...

    True Story: Shoot or not? I didn't.

    I think you handled the end part (with the hammer) pretty well. But as others mentioned, I hope I would have listened to that little voice long before that point. I have no problem telling someone to stick it or let them get mad because I won't do what they want -- especially for a stranger...

    Does anyone own an H&K USP Compact in .45 ACP?

    The HK USP45C is a fantastic weapon and is perfect for CCW. It is not too small, but plenty small enough that it disappears under a t-shirt with an IWB holster. It is not IMO too wide to carry IWB. The recoil is not bad at all - there is a recoil reduction system in the weapon that works...

    Richmond Va police officer guilty in shooting

    He was actually run over by the rear wheel of the car. I work with an agent who went to high school with the cop who was killed. :(

    H & K vs Para Carry

    The HK is not that large of a weapon. A full size HK USP? Yes. The P2000, not any larger than most CCW type pistols. The light rail is nice if the gun will ever see "nightstand" duty. As for hiding a full size gun in FL, it is easily accomplished. You just need a decent IWB holster. I...

    Road Rager shoots at motorcyclist - Triple digit Chase

    That's crap! I can't stand it when lawyers and judges play that game. :mad: :fire: :cuss:

    Road Rager shoots at motorcyclist - Triple digit Chase

    Good luck in court Monday. I have seen firsthand how crazy South FL drivers are, but haven't been shot at (yet). Hope he gets convicted!

    CCW and extra ammo

    Why not just carry a G17 full size mag? I don't carry the spare G27 mags when I have the gun on me... just plan on using the 15rd G22 mags if it comes to reloading.

    CCW and extra ammo

    One spare mag, a Surefire light and cuffs. Some days a BUG.

    Whats your shooting stance?

    Isoceles here. I started with weaver but now that I know better I quit using it. Weaver is not the best for cops and isoceles is not just for competition. Some food for thought... - Weaver opens the weaker part of your body armor to the threat, including the armhole. Isoceles presents the...

    H & K vs Para Carry

    You cannot go wrong with either choice IMO. Pick the one that best fits your hand -- you'll be more likely to practice and do well with it. As for Para reliability, I have three of them and they are prefectly reliable. I do trust my life with them and I'd rather carry them than the Glock my...

    Speer Gold Dots & Polygonal/Hexigonal Rifling

    I have shot GDs in 230gr through an HK USP45C and 165gr through a G22 -- no accuracy problems at all.

    Full-Auto Home Defense

    For indoor use, the same one I use now only with the "high" setup for full power 10mm loads: I could also get by with an H&K UMP45. :D If I had a ranch, or other decently sized piece of property... I'd alternate btwn an M4 and a DSA OSW for outdoor work. Of course... there is always...
