    Stare Decisis changes again

    I don't know that that is what the decision says. I think it says something along the lines of: If you've already got the suspect locked up and they do not have access to their vehicle, you cannot logically say exigent circumstances forced you to search that vehicle for officer safety.

    Why no instant background check for NFA weapons?

    Look at the original intent of the law. Remember, the tax has been $200 since 1934. Consider the price of a machine gun, short barreled shotgun or rifle, or a suppressor at the time. Many affected weapons could be had for $5-$20. Indeed, cutting-edge submachineguns ran about as much as the...

    does DC even have gun shops? How do they buy guns?

    I have heard that too, but I have also been to multiple home-based gun dealers still in business. Went by one earlier this week, in fact.

    If it is, don't worry about it. More guns will keep popping up as time goes by until everyone has a few.

    Dillon Reloaders

    I feel exactly opposite. Because I load multiple calibers on the same machine, I like the flexibility that manual indexing allows. My thought is that if I were going to have a single press dedicated to a particular load and never planned on changing it, I'd doubtlessly go with an...

    Embarassing concealed-carry story.

    My brother has a funny story that recently happened to him. He was in a one-hole bathroom at a restaurant and had forgotten to lock the door. As he removed his pistol from his holster, someone walked in on him seeing a young man with his pants undone and a 1911 in his hand. They raised their...

    1911 and hydra-shoks feeding issue

    Actually, kingpin, you said: These statements are not semantically equivalent. ghettofab, Are you confident that the throat polishing job that you did actually served to improve reliability? I ask because a botched polishing job can impact feeding just as you've reported. Especially for...

    The Mr. Nightcrawler Trilogy: Book I

    Darn it, Nightcrawler and Correia ... I managed to avoid getting sucked in to your initial story but got nailed with "Welcome Back" and read it religiously. I had seen this thread growing and figured I would skip it. Too much going on right now to really get going on something new. "Oh...

    DC CIRCUIT COURT STRIKES DOWN GUN LAW ON 2A GROUNDS

    Wow ... This decision contains some of the better arguments that have been made for years regarding the Second Amendment. Nearly every significant point that folks have argued here is brought up with applicable legal citation. I'm absolutely stunned as I read through this.

    sadistic compliance tool?

    I believe that in most cases, panic about Taser use is unjustified. This incident is likely among them but without more information, I can't say. Keep in mind, however, that the only external "weapons" we are aware of in this incident are a book and a phone. If the actor were actively using...

    Is this the end of times?

    Better how? Things are by far safer, easier, nicer, flashier and cleaner than ever before. People live longer, work less and play more. That said, the culture is less and less one of freedom and more and more one of security, safety and control. Still, I'm not very optimistic in the...
