Proven right As I stated, I knew people would question my explanation for the difference in drop time. That being said, my primary purpose was to say the "myth" that any two objects, regardless of horizontal velocity, when dropped will touch ground at the same time is based on a law of physics...

The Bullet myth is assuming a perfect vacuum. The law of physics states that, due to gravity, horizontal velocity does not affect verticle velocity. Therefore, in a perfect vacuum, any two objects, regardless of mass, will fall at the same rate. This is true until Earth's atmosphere (not a...

Give Taurus a chance Check out the Taurus Pt-845. It's a 12+1 DA/SA with the decocker, ambi controls, rail, and is extremely accurate (nail driver) and ergonomically my favorite gun. Figure spending $520.

Could be wrong, but this is what we were told in the 82nd Airborne Division 98-04 by armorers, NCO's, and other leadership. This is what supposedly accounted for the variations in muzzle velocities of about 100fps between the two weapon systems. Although, it may have been differences in muzzle...

As a former paratrooper and combat veteran......yeah I know it's been stated previosly, the only members of the armed forces that may have the ability to carry non-issue weapons on the field of battle are those assigned to SOCOM (Special Operations Command). These men are Army Special Forces...

Pig heaven My family owns a 300 acre farm about an hour away in Graham. If you like hunting hogs you'll love this area. We get a pig every time we make the trip. lots of hunting opportunities all around you, and as far as I know plenty of fairly open land, and many other types of terrain to...

First let me say I'm a store manager for Wal-Mart........we don't sell handguns. Also, only stores that rank in the top 5-10% of sales in the country are authorized to sell guns according to current policy.

As a combat veteran of the war on terror there is no other weapon frame I would rather go into battle with than the M-4. I would however want it chambered in the hard to find 6mm varients like the 6.8mm panther and about four inches longer on the barrel. I'm going to get flack for opting away...

what's wrong with the Taurus 800 series? Have you fired one or simply basing your response on Taurus hate.

I apologize, still a novice at the site. Didn't mean to create a problem.

Legal?????????????

BY THE WAY....Taurus Pt 845 downstairs and a sigma 9mm upstairs (yeah I know it's a cheap gun, but it gets the job done and is surprisingly accurate).

Is it excessive to have a gun in every room of the house........because that's my goal. Am I going overboard? I currently have a gun on every floor in the house. My feeling has always been that ITS BETTER TO HAVE IT AND NOT NEED IT THAN NEED IT AND NOT HAVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe I'm late on this but has anyone seen or fired this gun?

I guess what I meant was..........the gun that you had complete confidence in as far as accuracy, feeding, manipulation, misfires, etc.. I am surprised to see so many favorites being guns that fit into what I consider (and it's a personal consideration) the rifle category. I have always...

Just curious to know what the best personal defense gun you've owned for your home is and why. Thanks.

I'm about to by one of these and would like to know if anyone has any personal knowledge of them. Thanks for any insight you can give.

Just bought a Taurus PT845...........let me just say sweeeeeeeeet!!!!!!!!

MAVERICK223 Thank you for the response and increase in knowledge...this is the perfect example of why I love this site. Thanks again.

2RCO I really don't want to lengthen this debate, but you're once again wrong. My manual orders are not checked or changed by some automated system in Bentonville. If I take the time to manually order 6 tons of cabbage because I believe that my store needs and can sell it, then I will get...
