Areas that have CCW permits show more violent crime than normal. A. Correlation != causality B. "Areas that have CCW permits" = almost the entire country. If you want to support that argument, show that crime is LOWER in areas WITHOUT CCW permits. Since those areas include Washington DC a...

If you get a standard USP you have to get the match trigger! The factory trigger on the USP leaves something to be desired. I believe the match trigger is standard on the tactical.

Tip of the day: Get to know your local UPS office. Every UPS "hub" has an office that kind of directs the drivers. They do customer service as well. I have had similar things happen to packages I needed that day (I missed them and they left a note). They can either get the driver to come b...

I have a USP 40. Love it! Can't say enough about it. I want to get a 9mm next, maybe in Expert because RRA sells 9mm ARs and I have been waiting for a .40 AR for like 2 years now and gave up. I also want to get a .45 compact for home defense. Very accurate, but you pay for that. Glocks are nice if y...

1300 Army guard from Maryland are going. My unit is going, but not for a year or anything close. It's part of the deal, you know the possibility of being sent somewhere. It kills me when lefties try to use it against Bush, most of us aren't complaining so STFU (not directed to anyone here just a gen...

I forgot to add, if you guys ever read any stories then say "some troops even use the AK-47s they recover from raids" then immediately raise the B.S. flag. Almost everyone I talked to said thats a huge no-no and you would get your ass reamed for doing something like that. Also most troops...

the M4 carbine lists as 5.56lb dry and 6.6lb with 30 rounds. the M16 lists at 6.4lb a 3 lb difference is a 50% increase.. think of the difference that way. but that weight can be an important factor in the 30-06 round not pounding your flesh into hamburger All I'm saying is, if you're training with...

Dude... if you're going to spend $1500 on a gun... buy something that shoots bullets!

Tell me about it. I don't know how many times during my active duty tenure we just walked around or did stupid busy work because some E-7 didn't want to appear to be easy on the troops. I could just as easy go hide somewhere, but then when people start looking for me and can't find me and nobody kn...

Gainfully employed. I haaaaate that. Seriously! When there's nothing to do while at drill, I usually walk from one room to another room to outside or whatever, to make it look like I'm doing something. They could just hurry up and send us home.
