Stand down soldier, your mission is complete. RIP.

Video on site. If it doesn't load right away, I think it is due to the high volume of traffic.

No PM sent.

Do people really carry around speed loaders casually? I don't carry at all but I can't imagine the world of hell I would have to be in to need more than 5 or 6 shots.

I don't know anybody personally but have heard of it. My M&P is 8+1 and I usually don't carry spare mags but if I am going into town or something, I'll just grab one or two more mags. It's too easy to throw them in my pocket or holster.

If I need more than 25 rounds I am in the wrong part of town. I figure if I have one magazine and am involved with two bad guys and miss, lets say 3 times. People miss in gun fights all the time. That give's me 3 rounds per bad guy. 3 bad guys gives me 2 per, assuming I only miss 3 times. I just would rather have better odd when it comes to my life and that of my family. just my thoughts.

LOL. He's brought up some relevant points that I expected. Good info in this thread.

Psh, that chevy guy talks out of his ass.

But like Jags said, carry what you are comfortable with. Just like bikes, everyone has there preference. Although you can't usually take a concealed carry test drive so that makes it difficult. Like Max Power says, he loves his. I have never carried one concealed so obviously I am going to be biased. I only speak from my usage of them while at the range and such. Of course, I also love my M&P too much that I really can't see liking anything else, especially a revolver, as a daily carry.

Regardless of what you carry, and you said you already have your CHL, my opinion is a both a revolver and semi auto are better to carry than nothing at all. If the only gun I has was a revolver, I'd carry it in a heartbeat. To each there own. Good luck on whatever route you decide on.

Carry what your comfortable with.

And don't listen to Chebby. He's too young to be taken seriously.

Truth.

More difficult to carry extra speedloaders than magazines. Less capacity in a wheel gun. Seem to be more bulky. Easier to add a light or laser to a semi auto.

Only pro to a wheel gun would probably a misfire would be quicker to correct and no chance of a round not feeding.

I won't carry a revolver.

Yea, I bet.

Hence the right after that sentence.

i'd love to go hunting but I don't know anyone around here that does. I also get the feeling I would not be so good with clays

Neither am I. I have shot 10 rounds at clays. 5 of them hit. I think 50% for my first time isn't bad. I can't wait to do it again.

Again, quoted for future use.

I knew you would, hence why I worded it like that. Just for you.

I live in a neighborhood where it is extremely unlikely a home invasion would occur. Not saying it cant or wont happen, just meant that I don't know how much use I would get out of it

Eh, Shit can happen anywhere. Come to the next OR shoot and have at some clays. It's a lot of fun!

I'm a noob on shotguns too but have heard good stuff on those from what I remember. I think it would be worth trading for a Sig, but then I really don't like Sigs at all.

How would it not work for home defense for you? I live in an apartment and love having my shotgun for home defense. Chokes will affect the spread pattern of the shot.

You shot my lcp at keith's

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. I didn't really like it to much. When it kicked, it kept hitting my finger on the trigger guard. I don't know, maybe I just need more range time with it. Maybe it was the fact I'm not use to something so small, Brian. I prefer for it to be bigger in my hand.

Those senseless acts would have been entirely avoided had the responsible business owners posted signs prohibiting the carry of such dangerous things.

I chuckled.

Pitching or catching, you're still playing ball. The position don't really matter.

It's only ghey if you make eye contact.

This thread delivers.

OMG even as bad as that is, it is some funny shit. rep to you.

Quoted for future use.

I like the google adds on the side of the page

I have an adblocker.

I have held them too and I really liked it also. If I was going to get a gun this size, it would probably be my first choice.

Fox's article:

Edit: there are countless other sites with the exact same article.

Never shot either, but I am biased towards S&W.

Osha says 4 hours a day of 95dB is permissible. Who eats sunships 4 hours a day?

A walkman at 5/10 is about 94dB. Ban walkmans, ipods, cd players.

Eh but I have't seen the bags. Last time I had sunchips was when they were 80% compostable or whatever.

^ This

at least you got rid of the kid.

i love you.

I didn't mean it like that. sure the company wants to sell their product and needs to make their buyers happy. I meant from a consumer POV. People that eat these should suck it up and deal with the noise. They are making the earth a cleaner place. Now if we can just put trash bags on cows asses to catch their farts....
