  1. i think you have to be a permanent resident to join the military as a non-citizen. you dont automatically get citizenship from it, but being in the military speeds up the process. it takes like five or seven years normally to become a naturalized citizen from a perm. resident, but i think if you are in the service you can do it in like three.

    I thought there was something about it. Of course I'm a citizen so when I joined I didn't pay attention to that stuff. lol. Thanks for the info John.

  2. SOLD

    Here's the other gun my brother in law is selling.

  3. I've never carried a 1911 but I wouldn't choose a sidearm based on what is "American". You need to carry something you are comfortable with and you can shoot well. There are a wide range of firearms that people carry on here. XD, Glock, M&P, LCP, Bodyguard etc etc. Most were chosen due to reliability, how they fit the hand, how well they shoot with it, ease of carrying (could be concealability) etc etc.

  4. how possible/how practical is it to conceal a full 5" 1911? is that just too big and too heavy? I'm primarily looking at kimbers, but i haven't left out any SA's. I like the idea of being more accurate when I'm at the range with the 5" over having the tiny 3", that's my dilemma

    It's all personal preference. If you are 6'8" and 400lbs, you'd conceal it no problem. If you are 5'2" and 105lbs then you might have some problems. It also depends on your dress. If you're the 400lb guy and wear spandex all the time, it'd be hard to conceal it. But if you are the 105lb guy and wearing some clown type clothing, no problem.

  5. i believe that shamrock towed it themselves without anyone telling them to. The sidewalk there is owned by gateway. I checked with their office in the parking garage if they called in a motorcycle to get towed away and they denied it. I cussed out shamrock pretty good lets just say

    The news, I think it was 10tv, did a story about towing companies towing cars they shouldn't not allowing the alloted time in a spot and charging more than the state set rates. They showed a woman parked at McDonalds, then walked across the street to get money from the ATM and by the time she walked back over to Mc'D to get her food, her car was gone. :nono:

  6. Tell that to the Marlboro Man. His 6.0 gets 9 mpg. Everyone I've asked that owns one with a 5.3 says to expect to average 15.

    I got 15-17 with my 6.0. Only time I got under that was coming back from Cali.fully loaded truck (cab and bed) and a fully loaded 6x12 cargo trailer I averaged 7mpg.
