Re: Glock 19 Gen 5 COA

I bought a Glock 19 COA a few months ago. I am not sure what to make of it and if I'll keep it or not. I normally carry a full size Glock 17 or 45 and I'm perfectly comfortable with it. When I need something smaller, a Glock 43 or 43x with a comp on it that makes it 48 size.

The good. The 19 COA is ...

Re: Seattle waterfront shooting

Agreed on not being able to claim self defense claim when you initiate the contact. I believe I first heard of this when I took Massad Ayoob's MAG40 Class (excellent class BTW and I feel everybody should take this while they still can with Mas still around).

One thing that gets me is this guy ...

Re: No place but Michigan- mass stabber at Walmart stopped by man with gun

Pretty crazy. I was watching some videos on YouTube on this last night. And yes, no mentions of a good guy with a gun where mentioned. Stay safe out there everybody and always be vigilant.

Re: Get a gun- cameras just record your murder

Just finished reading a few articles. Pretty sad. The house was apparently accessible after the suspect climbed a high spiked wall and entered an unlocked door. There were several calls to the police to report the burglary but they were not able to access the house due to the high wall and locked ...

Unfortunately she shot the man to death after he left the bus and she fled.

Would have been much better if it had happened differently with the same dead bad guy.

Re: Just ordered a Tucker HF1

If I ever decided to do a holster for a BBQ gun, Tucker would be at the top of my list (with Palmetto Leather Works a close second). How do you like the Prodigy? Has it been pretty reliable once it was broken in?

Re: Suppressor provision in Big Beautiful Bill


The final version does not remove suppressors (or anything else) from the NFA. The Senat bill included that, but it was stripped out by the parliamentarian. The tax stamp fee is gone (it's now zero dollars) but the NFA registration requirements remain.

That link is for "Active Topics".... the activity here has been very low, so the list of active topics is pretty short.
On the upper left of every(?) page is the "hamburger menu" (three lines stacked up like a burger between two buns)... it says "quick links" next to it... Maybe one of those ...
