Re: A rare Gold Cup National Match (45 ACP)
Oh man! I hate to see that. Why does that stuff always happen when people are out of town?? It's uncanny how often that is the case. However, a new highpower and Gold cup ought to settle your nerves, just enough! Congrats on the "good money spent!"

Beiruty,
You have been on a tear today! I wasn't sure if you were glad to be home or not... I see now, that you are!

Nice acquisitions! You better oil the Para - looks kind of dry.

Re: 1911 firing pin return spring question
Extra power firing pin springs are often used as a sort of drop safety for pre series 80 guns... preventing inertia fire if you drop it on the muzzle. You can also use a standard spring and a titanium firing pin for the same effect, although I imagine it's cheaper to replace the spring than the fir...

Re: Why Glock didn't make the Army Cut
The article made glock look like an awfully arrogant bunch... if it's reported accurately. Either way, you submit for a proposal and sometimes you win and sometimes you don't. It's not like they were tied and glock lost over a tiny price difference. It reads as if sig won the testing AND was much le...

Re: This item could not fly..
Too bad... looks beautiful. Was it a non functional [actual] pistol or was it a decorative item that looked like a pistol?
I hope you were able to send it home with someone there vs. give it up.
Welcome home!

Re: Oregon Confiscation Law
I wonder if a wrongfully accused person can sue the ill-intentioned accuser in civil court?? That would be a way to keep it in check- financial ruin for a wrongful accuser.
If not, first anonymous accusation should go against the dem's personal security personnel.

Re: Concealed Carry for Short Folks
flechero, Thanks for your recommendation. I'll give the more radical cant a try. Any suggestions for (right-handed) holsters that I can adjust to a 25-30 degree cant? Crash If you are used to a simple Kydex, try PJ Holsters. Paul has up to 30 degrees as an option and will custom the ride height wit...

Re: This Texting While Driving is really starting to get to me!
I'm not saying punctuality isn't a hallmark of a productive person, but on the other hand every time a manager is hard on someone for showing up late, it's a little vote for more multitasking behind the wheel . Or maybe just set the alarm 5 minutes earlier? We're all adults... by the time you are g...

Re: Concealed Carry for Short Folks
I I'm right handed and the 3:30 - 4:00 position doesn't work too well as I had surgery on my right shoulder a few years back and my range of motion is limited. Suggestions?
