I can't speak for any other shop or any other state, but in Va. every pawn shop must by law report daily every item that comes in witha complete description as well as who the pledgor was(they must have a valid picture ID). This info goes to your local law enforcement agency. We started a...
I'm not trying to make excuses for everyone in the business here, so that said:
Are the prices you saw NIB or on used guns?
In a pawn shop we have to be a jack of all trades and try to keep up with cuurent market market fluctuations in pricings on every merchandise category in the store...
May I answer since I'm here. It is not at all. Just the opposite. F-F was designed to alleviate stress on the joints and muscles. As I stated previously, I have Rh.Artritis and Degenerative Spinal Disease and with F-F I have acheived a level of competancy in shooting I have never had before in...
I've seen that P&Sgrip demonstrated before at an LFI class and we found it useless. The middle finger has less strngth than the index finger and is more awkward to use, thats why the human hand uses the index finger as an opposable digit to the thumb as its strongest. Holding the weak hand over...
No sir, its based on your individual level of knowledge and ability to demonstrate and use the FistFire system. Most of the begining levels as is with all training tacs is on a range. However, higher levels are not "square competition shooting".
One thing I think we all get fixated upon is...
What I care about
in this life is protecting myself and my family. At my age with Rh.Artritis and Degenertive Spinal Disease most combat shooting skills have left me years ago. Not so with FistFire. After unlearning 35 years of other ways D.R. has shown me how easy a complete combat/self...
HankB,
Lets not be rediculous please. I was refering to judging Mas, not historical figures.
I said in my post I would not judge anyone. I do form opinions. They are wholely different. This thread in and of itself is a judgement of another human being, alive today whom I consider a friend. He...
This entire thread still goes against everything I believe in. I have no right to sit and judge anyone, whether I like them or not. But to judge someone you have never met galls me to no end. I know Mas, you won't find a finer friend to have. It is beyond belief that on a firearm forum you...
I just retired everything else I have to the safe in favor of Springfields XD9 series. I have two, a Tactical(5") and a Service(4"). By far the best imo. CZ contour grips, polymer frame weight, more accurate than anything else I have.
My 1911 went down the first day of second trip to FistFire on Wednesday and D.R. lent me an XD9 he was testing. A Tactical 5". I had never seen or held one before. I was so impressed that after the class that day I bought one. Ergonomically perfect for me, the same as a CZ basically. The grip is...
I have ben using the Laser Blaster since it first came out. IMHO it is an exceptional tool for its designed purpose. Too see hits during dry fire practice.
Laser Blaster is the one I think of. Fits in the barrel, comes in different calibers. You can use your existing holsters. Hammer drop pulses the laser.
Heres one place that sells it.
Laser Blaster
Correct on the 38's. They were grandfathered when the switch was made to autos. Anyone who wished to retain them could. All new recruit class's from that date on were issued the new semi's. Any current officer could switch if they wanted.
When I was in Israel many years ago I watched an IDF recruit class learning KM. I got to ask several questions of the instructor. The IDF wanted a hand to hand combat/disarming routine and felt the oriental styles were too complicated for the young(18 year old) recruits. They wanted simple, easy...
A terrorist act does not have to be committed by a Muslim group to be labeled terrorism. If in fact it was the protest group against the G8 then they should be hunted with all means necessary available to bring them to justice as any terrorist organization should.
My heartfelt sympathies to the...
FPrice,
Please do not take any of what I said as a personal attack, it was not meant as such. I apologize if taken that way. Over the years I have seen countless posts on scores of forums with Mas' name attached and each time it always comes down to an attack of one of the pioneers of our gun...
Are any of us perfect
Thats the question that should be asked. I've known Mas for over a dozen years. I know his faults. I've trained with him, been to lunch, dinner and just had coffee with him. Shot with him. If I had my choice of who I could have at my side if that day ever came when the bad...
Pawn Shops
Informative thread. If I may add what my wife says is worth 1 cent. I run one of the largest pawn shops in the central Va. area. It is next to impossible to be an expert on every item brought into the shop. We try to do our best on the 100's of items we see and put into inventory but...
