  1. For home defense, Glock (19 for small hands) is the way to go (or a revolver).

    Limited extra safety features to think about in high stress situation, you squeeze the trigger and it shoots, simple for a gun noob.

    For fun, 22LR Mosquito by Sig Sauer.

    Just figured I would throw some Glock support in since it's the outcast gun ;(

  2. Most departments I'm aware of don't allow unmarked to do traffic for the reason that people may think someone is impersonating an officer

    This!!

    And all of the sudden you have everyone who gets a ticket thinking they are a lawyer and trying to take it to trial, mostly wasting city money due to feeling "the car had no markings that's not fair".

  3. Most departments don't have many strictly surveillance vehicles, but even then they have lights and sirens. It's the STING vehicles that have nothing in them (except a camera or two).

    Most UC cars you actually see have LED's that are very small and unnoticeable. The current ones in use go in the headlights and change red/blue and they are brighter than overhead takedowns.

  4. I have stopped waving all together its played out. I just want to ride. Its not a brotherhood of riders. I do not know you nor will I ever actually remember you once you pass. I could also care less if you wear gear, helmet, reflective tape, look like a pirate, look like a power ranger, rev the piss out of your poorly tuned straight pipe V-Twin. If you want to pull up along side at a stop light go right ahead. Just don't look at me. I just want to ride and not worry about how you feel when I don't wave back. Why are we waving anyway? Your probably just and idiot in real life like most people anyway. Next you will want me to say hi to people I don't know, hold a door open for you and your idiot kids, give you directions when you are lost, or pull over when you break down and help you out. I am listening to classic rock on my ITouch and just don't have the time to bother with others. Have a Nice Day!

    That's a great outlook. :rolleyes:

    If that's how you truly feel why join a online community of riders?

  5. I see HD riders that don't wave or acknowledge anyone else but HD riders, but I had one that still makes me mad every time I think of it.

    I just got my bike within a week. I go out for a ride and am stopped at a light. I see what looks to me like an older Honda ( I was a few cars deep ) I wave ( I would have waived no matter what ). So the guy looks at me ( older larger guy on a very small bike, Sportster I think ) and get all sorts of upset and then underlines with his hand the Harley Davidson logo on his tank.

    That kinda left a bad taste in my mouth for HD owners.
