The outright fear of Trump of securing another presidential victory is certainly putting some folks in a panic. Sadly these attempts to shun the man mount to nothing more than election interference.
Tough to say without knowing the intended use. If for range use and competition, I would look at the following ;
Leupold DeltaPoint Pro, Trijicon SRO, Romeo 3Max, CMore RTS2. In addition the new Holosun 507 Comp has been getting good reviews.
Don't be discouraged by all these naysayers. NY is very pro 2A, conservative values, low taxes and fantastic weather. But then again this is the internet and I may be less than accurate ;)
There are many clubs around NY for action pistol. Go to USPSA and you should be able to locate a club near you. This website will also list the various divisions available and the equipment requirements for each.
Situational awareness - shop owner was monitoring his security cams and was prepared to act accordingly when faced with a deadly physical force situation.
Agreed. These "auditors" have been around for some time now. The proper response on how to deal with this should have been covered during an in service training day. Unfortunately there are still agencies out there that fall below that standard for training.
Not exactly. Look at the data from the USPSA from some of the major matches and I think you'll find there are other quality options out there, in addition to just the SRO.
The Gov has effectively eliminated all conceal carry in NY. I wonder how long this has been sitting on the sideline in anticipation of the recent ruling of the SCOTUS. This vindictive legislation makes the SAFE Act appear tame.
Sadly this is becoming worse on a daily basis. We are now perceived as weak on a global stage, absent of true leadership. We can only hope the midterms this fall will start to turn the tide.
I find it amusing the mainstream media has gone largely quiet on the story. This has the potential to be far bigger than Watergate ever was. Credible allegations of spying on a presidential candidate , followed by spying on a sitting president. Will be interesting to see how this one plays out.
As mentioned above, do yourself a favor and check out Kore Essentials. I have two of them and they both see heavy use. Everyone I know that has purchased them also has been happy with the product line.
As mentioned above, check out the links posted. This will give you an idea of the course of fire and what to expect. There are matches hosted around the country, this upcoming season there will be two here in NY. Unlike a USPSA match, there is no movement required. Ultimately your score is...
Amazing the media refuses to pressure the Biden Admin on these numbers. Hyper focus on Covid with travel bans now in place, yet an open border to the south where apparently Covid is a non issue.
Can't help but think Baldwin was coached prior to this interview. With that being said, I believe the advise given him did nothing to further his cause. Many now view him as the master of deflection. In the end it was him that failed to check the gun properly and ultimately discharged same...
Based on what I've been seeing over the past week or so I would tend to agree. 9mm is no longer flying off the shelves at .60/rd, and prices are gradually decreasing. Inventory is slowly starting to come back, and hopefully this will be the beginning of the return to "normalcy".
Not sure I would call that a bias. Many companies offer police / military a discount on their products or services. One way of saying thank you for your service.
Interesting thread, and I can only speak to Wolcott as a pre pandemic consumer. I was a frequent supporter of the range/store, often purchasing supplies of anything firearm related. In addition, Ken would host a practical shoot every other Fri nite that was well attended and appreciated...
Jerry is truly a legend in the shooting sports. I have some friends that have shot with him at matches and say he is truly a great guy, always willing to help others. Would love to take a class with him if ever afforded the opportunity.
This will be the issue going forward this season. Even those of us that had a decent stockpile and/or reloading components will be faced with a shortage. My hunch is steel challenge will become more popular since at least you can shoot a rimfire platform.
You're right, that's about double what one would normally sell for. During these times, I feel some people are just casting the net and see what they catch. I routinely see 9mm now at $30/box, 3X what I was paying simply 12 months ago.
