I've shot a full size .40. I loved the feel and how well my hands fit around the grip. For a polymer pistol they are heavy, though. Just the way it felt in my hand I don't think I've held another pistol that felt better, ergonomically. Now take the rest with a grain of salt because the PX4 I shot was a rental so I'd like to believe most of the negatives are just because of it being used and abused and generally beat up. The gun jammed frequently, like maybe went through one magazine without a failure. Accuracy was terrible and shots were all over. A friend and myself were holding 1.5-2 inch groups (25-35ft) with a CZ75 and 1911 at the same time. I had been considering it for a CCW but the rental experience overall was a letdown. It felt awesome holding it, but shooting it was a completely opposite feeling. I'd like to shoot another again, to give it another shot, but I haven't got around to it.

That argument isn't complete though. Even though the chemistry wasn't there yet, all 3, James, Richard, Jeremy, still knew about and had a great deal of passion for cars, and what they said about their cars was interesting and entertaining still. With the exception of Tanner the other two guys don't have a clue, on the US show, and Tanner doesn't have any presentation charisma either.

I would be happier with nothing. My preferences in order would be: Top Gear (real, I'm not saying Top Gear UK) Nothing Top Gear American bastardization

Write about how arbitrarily choosing a topic for the sole purpose of writing an argumentative final paper is bullshit.

What if he actually dies and everyone just shouts fake... no one will know he is really dead. Not like I or most people care either way any how.

My prediction is that it will suck hard.

If you fix it you then might be able to get it knocked down to a fix-it ticket. I don't know the process of doing so but other people here likely do. I can understand the problem with always having the reverse lights on, though, as it could confuse other traffic. Would be similar to a turn indicator being stuck on.

The ones in Cincinnati have been busy as hell since this deal started. I wish I could go to one as empty as in that picture lol.

He stated it was an overage charge. Which means that he has reached the allotted amount provided by his insurance plan for this year. It is not the dentist's responsibility to keep track of how much their 100-1000s of patient's have spent in a year and also keep track of each of their separate insurance policies.
-
That's an issue with your insurance, not your dentist, and I think more of your responsibility to be informed about than it is theirs.

Anything there is good as shit. I actually like the Philly about the least though. Pizza and Chicken Parmesean are my most frequent choices.

$1000 1911s don't jam nearly as much as the cheaper ones. My $900 Springfield only jammed on flat noses. Ball FMJs and JHPs feed fine all day long.

What width are they? Tire size. Edit: 225.

How about killing the cartels while changing the rules of the game. When the risks increase and the rewards decrease a lot less shitbags will be stepping up.

^ The last one was spinning behind the point of impact. A serious collision would have had to occur to completely reverse the the forward momentum of that bullet. Also, it is hard to tell in the video but the bullets don't appear to have rifling marks cut into them. Though the quality is too poor to really make that determination. I'd lean towards it being faked.

That sounds cool and reassures me some. I loved Fallout 1&2 but Fallout 3 was a tremendous fuck up in comparison. It was decently fun to play through and all but nothing close to resembling how great the previous games were for their time.
-
They could be steel core rounds, or fabricated bullets made of steel with a copper jacket. What is interesting to me is that they are total metal jackets. Most FMJs have exposed bases.
-
I believe in buy once, cry once. That is why I spent more and got a Springfield Loaded instead of a Milspec for my first 1911. Good decision to wait longer.

Years ago I laughed my ass off when Pat Buchanan, while running for a Presidential nomination, suggested that all US troops be withdrawn from overseas to protect our border from an invasion by Mexico. I don't think that is such a bad idea now. (Back then the drug cartels weren't nearly as strong, active, or violent.) Posse Comitas only prevents US troops from being used in the US at time of peace, correct? It does not prevent sending raids into Mexico, or fighting back foreigners on US soil. Unfortunately the current administration is turning a blind eye to the situation. Border patrol and the INS, etc., are nearly null agencies due to the administrations' immigration policies. Their only use of the situation was trying to increase gun control against US citizens, but thankfully the absurdity of that argument was realized and the measure fell flat on its face.

I think the shows are all bullshit. It really doesn't help that the main guy on Ghost Adventures is one of the biggest douchebags I've ever seen on TV. Anyway nearly all the "evidence" can either be staged or just misinterpreted - or outright faked in post-production. Why do they only investigat at night, in the darkness? This is in stark contrast to their clients' reports of activity WHILE THEY ARE AWAKE, not during the middle of the night! My reasoning is that so they can get evidence of such a shitactular quality that they can say any blur or even artifacting is a ghost, when otherwise in good light there would not exist any anomalies to even question. The same exact phenomenon exists with UFO videos - they are always of shit quality that you can't make anything out. The point is that it comes down to a question of what is more likely - that what is shown is actual proof of ghosts, or is it misinterpreted or outright faked "evidence" that is presented for the goal of entertainment, without any heed to journalist integrity? The latter is much, much more likely in my mind. Also the investigators demonstrate a very poor knowledge of how their equipment works or even an understanding of physics or even scientific thinking. Logical fallacies in science are quite frequent on the shows. Ghost Lab is fucking ridiculous in this aspect, so much it's actually hilarious at times. That being said, I'm not 100% skeptical but I don't believe in ghosts. I've had some weird shit happen in my experience but nothing so extraordinary to make me believe.

Forget 3rd or 2nd. Droid may be #1 by end of year.

Apparently you expected so you are wrong. Sorry just being an ass.... so are Droids worth getting? I don't care for Apple so is there much of a choice then? -
My 05 3i without ABS is a fucking deathtrap in the snow. Anything more than gently and slowly applying the brakes will cause the rear to come around. No ABS is very rare so no one else probably has any problems with them. MS3 comes with summer tires correct? I would suggest at least to get some decent all-seasons on it.

How about 5 years ago? Okay almost 5 years ago

Good to hear. Yes, I meant to warn about it being a pain in the ass but you had already replied saying you applied when I read this thread again. I applied for it myself a year ago. I was over 760 with no blemishes on my report and still got denied. It really is the best cash back card.

I think that is a big draw of zombie fiction. Some people like to fantasize of shooting (murdering) people without having any consequences.
