  1. Basics aren't an issue..I've shot several other platforms (1911s, sigs, rugers, etc) and shot them well. But the 19 just sucked and it wasn't just me but someone else I took couldn't shoot it as well.

     

    I learned to shoot on 1911 or similar grip angle guns. I owned a Glock 17 for a short time and sold it because of the grip angle. I can be as accurate with it as any other gun, it just takes me longer to reset after each shot than something similar to a 1911.

     

    If I had some burning reason I needed to use the Glock I could have learned to use it equally as well. It was less work just to sell it. (and I made a few bucks actually)

  2. The question is do you have any guns that really cannot be replaced?

     

    If not just go with a lockable steel cabinet and make sure you have insurance that will cover the loss. Chances are in a fire they are ruined even if they don't burn in any of the "fireproof" safes most people sell.

  3. apparently checking IDs in some cases.

     

    So since they are independent now they issued their own IDs already? Also where are they getting water, electric, and food to support this independence?

     

    Wait till a fire starts and see how independent they want to be.

  4. Unrelated, but if you guys wanna see a boom SpaceX Starship SN4 just blew up on the test stand at the build site in Texas following it's 5th static fire test. Unexpected, but not a big deal, SN5 was basically already done and SN6 is about done. For those who don't know, this is SpaceX's next gen methane rocket that will replace the Falcon 9 and go to the Moon and Mars. This one was actually supposed to make a test "hop" on Monday.

     

    Sounds like it blew up after the test fire had finished. Hopefully they have clear data on what failed.

  5. TLDL: Mayor had some people complain. Thinks that people standing outside their cars in family groups and driving somehow broke social distancing. Promises he will "not allow" any more events until social distancing is lifted. (He seems to think he has some control over the situation)

     

     

    I grew up in Circleville, cruising went on like this my whole life until $4/gallon gas hit. They tried to stop it the whole time and never could. All his excuses become really lame when you look at Pumpkin Show causing even worse traffic and access for emergency services for a week straight and not just a couple hours. I love that he thinks this one dude is in charge of the "group".

  6. No hospital would claim something inaccurately to get a medicare reimbursement when they could otherwise charge a private insurer.

     

    1. If they get caught doing so medicare fraud has YUGE penalties.

    2. Private insurers reimburse at a higher rate than medicare, by a ton.

    3. See #2

    The facts still remain that as of today using Ohio's own stats if you're under 30 you didn't die from it and likely won't.

     

    If you're between 30-30 you stood .2% chance

    If you're between 40-49 you stood .9% chance

    If you're between 50-59 you stood 1.5% chance

    If you're between 60-69 you stood 4.1% chance

     

    As of 2010 there were 81,489,445 people between 45 and 64.

     

    Assuming the low end of an unchecked spread being 60% of the population that is 48,899,073 infected people.

     

    If only .9% of them die (which would be higher with an overwhelmed healthcare system but) that is 440,091 dead. Just in that age range.

     

    I guarantee that is going to include people you know unless you are hit the lotto lucky. Mowing the grass looks easy, until you realize each blade is a person with a family.
