    The Patrol Rifle Concept

    Cosmo every possible gun fight situation would give the edge to the AR over the guns you mention. Agian your not armed for this mental debate. Get some knowledge and come back to the table. Pat

    The Patrol Rifle Concept

    Cosmo don't know if your ignoring the fact I said we use 870 with slugs for animals. APD issues 870's and they have not had problems dealing with moose I know several APD officers. My personal Vang Comped 870 rides in my patrol car loaded with breneke slugs for such animal calls which are few...

    The Patrol Rifle Concept

    QUOTE But the AR has a near-monopoly on the class right now, at least in the US. I've heard this is in part because of federal purchasing assistance, though I cannot confirm it. Certainly, it's questionable whether the officers have had any experience with alternatives. You even see patrolmen...

    The Patrol Rifle Concept

    Also forgot to add a 223 can bring down large animals in a pinch. I know of one Trooper who killed a chargeing black bear with his AR. As for other rifles in the class if their not semi auto their obsolete for the patrol rifle role. Pure and simple. There is a reason that soldiers and cops...

    The Patrol Rifle Concept

    QUOTE A Marlin 1894 in .44 Magnum would be a far better choice as a patrol rifle for LEO's in this state, for example. As it is they have to scrounge around for a slug gun or a private hunting rifle when there's a problem bear. END QUOTE Sorry thats laughable and I am glad I make the...

    Olmypic Arms AR

    Oly makes pure crap their not a second tier company their at the total bottom. They do everything from blow up to choke up. I had one and it took OLy over 18 months to fix it. Don't buy from this pos company. Pat

    New SA Socom II

    The rails are starting to make the M1 into a usable patrol rifle. You need a flashlight on a longgun if your going to use it for serious uses. And optics are a huge edge. The rails make this a reality. Pat

    Tried my new 9mm Hi point carbine today.

    I have never had to load my magazines and let them set to get them to work right. I too have used a lot of mags. You get what you pay for. Pat

    Glad to see your starting him off early. Perhaps you a 22 pistol could be under the christmas tree for him. Pat

    Definition please (what's a bullpup?)

    You may not want a target trigger but you need a usable trigger. I had a Aug and the damn trigger was 10 pounds or so that makes hitting fast and accurately problemantic. A good military rifle trigger should be around 4 pounds no more no less. Pat

    A Basic Rifle Question

    AR15's have a forward assist not to get a tighter seal as you said but rather to push round that did not go in complete due to chamber fouling. That was the theory anyway. Its not good to use the forward assist at all. Most shooters feel its uneccessay. It has nothing to do with accuracy. Oh and...

    the truth about the sw sigma

    Smith first off you need to teach him not to cross his support hand thumb over behind the slide. Enforce good habits when their young. This is a good way to get the thumb bit badly. Second hitting a ISPC target at 15 yards is not hard to do even for 100 rounds. Pat

    is a sig 2009 9 mm a good gun or pos?

    Nice pic but where are you carring that spare mag. I hope you have a mag carrier vs pocket carry. Pat

    Why was the 45 Colt never chambered in a rifle during the 19th century.

    Well I currently have a Winchester 1892 1 of 500 series guns that was sold by CDNN. It has worked fine so far with no problems. So I am unsure how much much better than perfect the 357 mag or 44 mag can be in a lever gun. Pat

    Weaver: Not for Everyone, Not Every Time.

    Andy I have to agree and disagree with your post. Not in relation to the stance but rather tactics. We have too long taught police to go to cover no matter what. But this can get you killed in close quarter situations. If your threat is 5 yards in front of you, your number one priorty should be...

    The Patrol Rifle Concept

    IF you have a fail to fire one handed thats not so hard to clear. IF oyu get a double feed then its difficult. I was taught and do currenty teach my guys and gals to transition to their sidearm if their long gun (shotgun or rifle) goes down. Thats if it runs out of ammo or malfs. Once its safe...

    The Patrol Rifle Concept

    The AR is a military weapon and can handle abuse and rough conditions far better than the Remington 7600 sporting rifle. You need to decide what you want a crap hits the fan combat rifle or a deer shooter. AR's are not hard to clean and maintain they were meant to be used to soldiers in field...

    The Patrol Rifle Concept

    Yep its not that practical but the aimed fire rate with the AR15 is also much higher than a bolt gun. WHen I say AR15 I mean all semi autos. .25 second splits at 25 yards is do able with A zone hits. Pat

    Trijicon Tri-Power for soldier in Iraq

    QUOTE Faster and easier for a CQB poodle shooter like an M4, but an LMG like the M249? LMGs are meant to be supressive fire weapons, an optic would be pointless. Hell, if youre going to do that why not just mount a damn Swaraovski on a Ma Deuce. END QUOTE THey make everything faster from...
