  1. I was a member at Blackwing when I lived in Ohio. Personally, not a better indoor range around.
  2. Hope for the best, he's a good man.
  3. Got 2-3" in Dallas if that says anything. Think y'all will get the good stuff.
  4. Look into the Caspian Arms 1911 kit: http://www.caspianarms.com/specials.php http://www.brownells.com/handgun-parts/frame-parts/frames/1911-auto-high-capacity-receiver-kit-prod23323.aspx Here's a Pre-fit slide/frame combo: http://www.brownells.com/handgun-parts/handgun-parts/frame-parts/frames/1911-auto-pre-fit-slide-frame-barrel-kit-prod41017.aspx
  5. I approve this 300. I'm still in love with the 300 SRT8. No shame.
  6. The KRISS loves to jam when dirty. May have been due to the fact it had a solid 1,000 rounds thrown through it earlier, but it would hiccup after a few mags. There is the Thompson M1 carbine route for a cheaper alternative. http://www.kygunco.com/prodimages/31249-DEFAULT-L.jpg It's a hair heavy, but will sling all the 230 grain hardball you want to feed it.
  7. If you're building this rifle, drop in a better trigger than a "stock" trigger. Shoot a 2-stage trigger or a Geissele trigger, and you'll understand why. The rest can be ergonomics and what you feel is comfortable. I hate the traditional pistol grip and much prefer the MIAD grip from Magpul. I've tried the Ergo and the Hogue grips and were never really comfortable. Next would be the trigger well, but after that is all you. I like having an enlarged charging handles, some form of textured rail panels, QD sling mounts, etc..... All in how you like your set up. Made all the difference in the rifle overall as far as comfort and ergonomics.
  8. Teachers have their hands full. I wouldn't put the responsibility in the hands of an educator to utilize a firearm. Now if a teacher ha the desire to protect themselves and is adequately trained, different scenario. To force that kind of responsibility is like asking a brain surgeon to fix a collapsing bridge. I do commend the NRA's proposal for such security measures. I mean we do have a branch in the government called The Department of Homeland Security last I checked. Instead of foreign terrorism, we should look at our domestic threat to our own people.
  9. Privately trained security is always a good idea. Most private companies have access to training well beyond the common LEO, in most cases. Are we talking about mall type security, Loomis, or the average sit at the desk and watch a monitor type? No. If we have trusted private contracted security to guard our Embassies abroad, on top of our diplomats, why would we not do the same for our country. Security in schools should have been addressed many moons ago. After the Oklahoma City bombing, guess what happened? Security barriers, blast proofing Federal buildings (windows and structures in general), higher security monitoring and the whole 9 yards. Why? We wanted to protect those inside a possible target. It's sick that someone would even visualize a school as a target, but it's a big one. From random crazies, to the most brazen of terrorists, the children of this country are vulnerable targets. Where are kids usually found in mass quantities? Schools. Proactive security is a great start. Actively engaging a potential threat would significantly reduce the chance of human loss or casualty. Does that mean shoot first and ask later? Hell no. Experienced personnel would only help promote a safer environment, not take away.
  10. Just found about 20 more mags in an old duffle bag of mine. They're relics, but still work. Half of them have Magpul followers I put in em.
  11. http://feldoncentral.com/humor/obama-doesntgiveaf.jpg
  12. I hate the idea of compromising to those uneducated idiots, but I can agree. Make them feel good about themselves so they can go meddle into something else that isn't broke.
  13. I do love the new 300's. if I didn't need a truck, an SRT8 300 would be on the list.
  14. Eco mode is only nice for freeway driving. Annoying when it kicks in on the street with minimal throttle input. Once Diablo Sport gets their Trinity updated for the 12' Rams, I'll turn it off. I've got 3.55's in my truck. But I got the dash display, which the other trucks on the lot didn't have. I plan on doing 4.10's when I put my wheels on. It'll make a nice difference for city driving.
  15. Only thing the Penastar motor did was make the Wranglers tolerable to drive and less of a turd. Last I checked, the Ram 5.7 Hemi is rated a little higher in HP than the Charger/300/Challenger. I still want 4.10's in my Ram though.
  16. Thought all the Rams came with the 6spd auto.........I know mine did.
  17. My old man's buddy is local Frank. I'm sure he'll take it, shoot me a PM with your number again, I lost it.
  18. If anyone did their homework, they'd push these turds out of office for good. All this talk of the AWB still needs to be passed. I don't see it going through the House by any means.
  19. I believe an M1A in 7.62 is a good start to a one way conversation. When brick walls start coming down, they may think twice.
  20. I shot the initial run of the FN SCAR at Blackwing when FN delivered the first batch. Ergonomics were good, slightly stiffer recoil due to the piston design, but overall a nice weapon. I'd personally go for the 17 if it were me. I'd prefer the harder hitting 7.62 in that configuration.
  21. Not vote for Obama.........wait........already did that.
