After doing a month of grand jury duty, I believe (forgot already) that the state considers your firearm loaded if 1) the firearm is capable of firing, and 2) you have ammo for that firearm on your person.
I consider a firearm useless if it doesn't contain one in the chamber, but that's just my...
I'm betting if there were more, or if the current ones were more visible, there would be more black gun owners. Friend who owns a shop says some of his biggest customers are black people that get the cold shoulder or treated like shit by other gun shops because they might look like they're a...
As far as having it looked at, a few ranges I have gone to here in Rochester take a look before they let you shoot, it has to be compliant, or they won't let you shoot. They've seen my SAFE Mod tons of times, no epoxy over the two screws, and have said nothing.
I use the SAFE Mod from AllStar Tactical. Easy to install, has passed all checks when others view it for compliance, have had multiple leo friends tell me it'd be fine
Here's a few shots at night:
I still gotta play around w/ the settings to fine-tune this, but I'd say that's a good enough picture to give a description to the police. Works for me
As far as my search goes, I ended up going with a Dahua 5442 series because it boasted great night time performance. I don't run mine in nightvision because it's not aimed to catch cars, so I force color on it for identifying people at night better.
Here's a day shot, I'll get on and post from...
I recommend them to my neighbors who don't want to go all out like I did. I usually note that they're convenient, have a lot of different configurations, and it's a good way to talk them into doing cameras on their houses when they're initially wary of them, or intimidated by the tech. Not my...
Glad you found what you wanted. For people looking next time, I will 100% back Bravo Concealment. Their pricing is good, supported firearms seems to be good, accessories, fit, finish, etc. I think I'm on my 3rd holster from them, I bought one for my Shield, and now have a iwb/owb combo set for...
Gun in the bedroom is in a safe, loaded.
Pistols in the other safe near where I am are loaded always. That way I can just open and grab one if I ever need to. Bolt gun not loaded, AR not loaded, but there's a loaded loader nearby, ready to go.
I use safes because I think they're safer and make...
Normally, I'd agree, with running a gun group on there and everything, but I specifically avoid posting things that have been getting people Zucc'd as of late - conspiracy shit, boog stuff, etc. The steps they gave me this morning went along w/ how they check for fake profiles and such. Weird...
Didn't really miss the point, just worded it poorly. Guy doesn't like Jill, decides to be butthurt about her calling herself doctor, writes something that goes against his employer's vision/values/whatever, they remove his piece from their site. He has every right to write it, they have every...
Yeah, I think I know what you mean. People trying to give themselves clout or just overly pleased w/ themselves. I mean, shit, Dr. Seuss called himself a doctor just to please his dad so he would be proud of him, even though he didn't finish school enough to be a doctor. People do a lot of...
That's fair I guess. I didn't read his paper or whatever, but then again it is their right to do so, if his words aren't in line with their values. Maybe he could have said the same thing more elegantly or less asshole-y I guess, haha
I have seen A LOT of uproar over her title though. Lots of...
I find it funny that of all the shit we fight for on this site, we are defending a guy who is questioning someone who calls themselves a doctor, since that person has completed all necessary requirements to have a doctorate degree. Just because she's not a medical doctor, why does it bother...
You fuckers should get a room, jesus :popcorn:
What about the rest of this that I read, "...failing to pay taxes, shipping guns across state lines and failing to conduct background investigations."
Is none of that a legit reason to raid them for doing, like what happened w/ Jackson or another...
For a few more beans, the M-308 is a better version of mine, as it can adjust parallax as well, which helps focusing at a distance (very basically, if you're interested, just look up what it does) - it's a fantastic scope that I wish I would have gotten, but I am still very happy w/ this one...
All the scopes recommended in your price range will work then. The farthest I've shot a deer with this scope is 100y. I'm not knocking the other scopes, they're great, but not needed in this case. If anything, you'll wanna upgrade the gun or parts of it before the scope is needed to be upgraded...
We didn't really ask what the OP bought the rifle for. Like me, he bought a cheap rifle. Does he want to get into deer hunting, have a basic scoped all-rounder, or does he want to get into precision shooting eventually, but is just limited by budget right now? Before recommending a $600 scope...
The ACSS reticle sold me. It is way overbuilt for anything I'm going to do now, and that's ok, because I can always learn and adapt.
I wanted a 1-6x or similar short-range scope, but longer than my dad's Vortex red dot. Being illuminated as well, this was hard to pass up.
I bought a Savage Axis a few years ago and put a Nikon P-308 with the bdc scope on it. I absolutely love it. Nikon consistently made good scopes for the budget minded and for the serious shooters. Look on Amazon and ebay for them, now that Nikon has gotten out of the game. If you can't find any...
Correct, people hear abortion and immediately get political about it. If you look it up, the term means that it's just ending a pregnancy. The fetus does not still need to be alive prior to this. It is defined as "the termination of a pregnancy after, accompanied by, resulting in, or closely...
This may be harsh, but I think this overall should be the message. You know what, shit happens and at least there's an option. I'm not really interested in commentary about abusing it, the state paying for it and all that, that's not what I'm talking about. With regard to GOP's original post, I...
This is what I do when I go camping. I put it in ultra conservative mode which increases the life by turning shit off, and the externals get me a couple charges. I have thought about a solar pack to charge, most I've got now is a solar light that can charge a phone off it.
Put together your own med kit or take a look at these: Medical Kits
I bought the Team Rubicon kit for when I am out sawing. It's more of a "get me to a hospital fucking quick" kit than a med kit. I need to add some things to it that I encounter while cutting, like a bee sting kit. When I was...
@NYGuns I've been doing a lot of looking back and forth on ipct for a new low-light camera. One of mine bit the dust in a firmware episode gone bad, rip. I'm looking for a better low light option and there's so much back and forth about which one is the best. I know I don't want the one that has...
I passed on an almost 4pt Saturday before dusk. Not big enough, I want a real rack, lol.

I like it. It directly says to attach to the threaded holes on the light, Good find. I was also looking at this one, since it says it works with all Protac Rail Mounts. Won't order the light just yet til I have the mount stuff all in (and so I'm not spending so much all at once right before the...
" Thorntail Inline: Saves Weight / Eliminate Components / Improve Adjustability: By removing the factory thumb-screw 1913 rail mount from Surefire's M300, M600 Scout (except M600AA) and Streamlight Protac Railmount 1 & 2 (except HL-X), "
Does this mean it won't work at all w/ the HL-X or you...
Can get a better pic later if that helps. I found that putting the button on top relative to where the grip is helped me hold the whole thing a bit better. Wasn't holding the grip, but mainly pushing against it. Pretty comfortable
At this point, I think you need to put aside your general hate for him and ask if it's beneficial to the country if the disputed President-elect should have this info. Two months really isn't a lot of time to get your team in under normal conditions, so this is interesting. Do you want him to...
I guess what I need to find, although I found my keymod picatinny rails, is an arisaka scout mount for the light. I guess the screw mount that comes w/ the light needs to be re-tightened often, and this just screws the light to the mount? I'm finding them, but only in m-lok, not keymod.
Starting gun this weekend down at NF's house. We've been watching a big ass buck walking around that we both want. Also got an invite to hunt w/ a friend of mine, so I'll probably visit him this coming week or next weekend.
NF also told me that I can order my tags right online, I had no idea...
I've always wanted to take a rifle class and I got my chance a few weeks ago with a low-light course put on by RPD. The course was designed for pistols, but it -did- say rifle or shotgun on the description, and I had more rifle ammo, so I messaged Dave and he okayed it. When it said low light...
If you don't mind stepping down to 9, the Shield might work. I had a gen1 Shield in 40, and it kept resetting in my hand. "Worked" fine for close and personal shit, but when trying to shoot longer distance, it wasn't as good. Saw you mention you had bigger hands, so that's why I mention that...
Yup, thanks to you, I'm officially a Glock armorer :rock:
Never can I own pistols w/ factory triggers and sights again, this is actually a nice gun now, bahahaha
Got them all put in the gun today, what an easy process. Once I figured out how to pull the feed ramp (I think?) it was cake. Didn't even need a punch, just some small screwdrivers.
Initial thoughts are that it definitely feels nicer. Easier to pull, less effort. Didn't lighten it too much...
