    How They Are Really Going to Disarm All of Us ( video )

    Well, that's just it. Just before I retired they were finalizing a system where AI made the decision as to whether the target was a threat and if lethal force was appropriate. Prior to that, a human was the final arbiter in make that decision. That was no longer a variable. That project was a...

    How They Are Really Going to Disarm All of Us ( video )

    Unfortunately, I believe your assessment is accurate. Even IF most offer resistance you will succumb to overwhelming force. Trust me I use to work on these military drone systems similar to ISTAR ( Intelligence, Surveillance, Target acquisition, and Reconnaissance ) and they will take you out...

    Ammo background checks to begin mid-September?

    Hell - during hunting season guys would put their shotguns and rifle on the attached gun rack in the back of their trucks and drive to High School with them. No one ran into the school and started a shooting spree. And no one thought it was any concern. When I worked at Kodak, they used to have...

    Ammo background checks to begin mid-September?

    Isn't the very fact that that we have a damn pistol permit and now need to add semi-auto rifle to the permit good enough to avoid the background check.?? But I think @tirwin1 nailed it. It's an end-around to further limit our access to guns/ammo and to tell the 2A to bend over.

    Feel bad for the LGS's too. WTF are those stores going to do with 10 people in line to buy some damn ammo? It will be like waiting your turn at the god damn DMV.

    As @Jmac00 so eloquently points out there is a BIG distinction between that shit hole NYC ( sorry guys on NYGF that have to live there ).

    Recommendations for a CCW that is 9mm, 10 rd capacity, but very compact and easy to hide.

    Thanks for that info. The P225A looks awesome and very similar to P239. Have you shot the P239? If so, how would you compare the two? I've got the P229 also and a Kriss Sphinx SDP that I'm going to sell I think. Anyways, good stuff
