Re: Opinions on Mossberg Model 100 .270
I thought I posted this before, but since you own the gun, here is a link to a write up that I did on how to modify the trigger. The guns are very accurate right out of the box. The biggest problem I experienced was the trigger. I own 3 of these guns, 1 ATR100 in .270 (camo stock), 1 4X4 in 30-06 (p...

Re: Armed robbery of 40-50 people
A couple of things cross my mind about this... If you listen to the reporter, employees inside the restaurant ran into the freezer and dialed 911 as the gun men entered the building.. Then the reporter says the event lasted 5 minutes. FIVE FULL MINUTES! This proves beyond a doubt that when seconds c...

Re: Para 1911
I am going to go out on a limb here and tell you that the majority of people, being asked to choose between Para & Springer, will choose Springer. I was in your shoes recently and put a post up asking the same question. Resoundingly, MOST said that Springers are better guns, and the gun that mos...

Re: CHL fatally shoots teenage burglary suspect
When I read between the lines, all I get is "one less dirt bag in the world". Why is that the families of dead dirt-bags always come out of the wood work expecting to be "paid" for the loss of their childs life? Here's a thought-if a CHL holder is involved with a good (legal) sho...

Re: The Future of LEO Attitude Towards CHL Holders
Can you see me sitting here holding my hand up?
Took class in April of '08.. Due to a couple minor brain-farts on my part, I'm still waiting on my plastic. I'm hoping to have it before the 1 year mark...

Re: Boris Miles found not guilty
He either knows the right people in the right places, or bribed a lot of people to get out of those charges. For the love of God someone needs to take his weapon away from him PERMANENTLY! I venture to guess what would have happened had another CHL'er across the room-out of ear shot-witnessed this g...

Re: Need help finding a good 1911.
I started a post almost exactly like yours last week! I swear to you that I read your post and I thought it was mine. We said almost the exact same things on requirements. And guess what else....? Are you on the edge of your seat yet? I BOUGHT that Para Ordnance at Academy that you were eye-balling!...

Re: Winchester 94 30-30 for Home defense?
First off, why in the heck do you live at such a dangerous location? 2nd, the 170 grain bullets are far too much for self defense. They will definitely over-penetrate and keep traveling possibly injuring someone else in the apartment next to you, or above, or below you depending on where your apartm...

Re: 100 ATR™ NIGHT TRAIN™ by Mossberg
If you will wait a little while, the '09 versions will be coming out with the LBA trigger-Mossbergs version of the Accu-Trigger. You can read a press release about it on the Mossberg website under the "Media Center" tab, then press releases. I tried to copy & paste the link but that po...

Re: Willowbrook Mall Houston 30.06?
If you have not been there in a while-like maybe a year or two-you better be prepared for what you are going to see. I'm simply telling you that you are going to find a swath of "undesirables" from all walks of life there. It would be safe to say that Willow-Crook is the new Greenspoint Ma...

Re: Illegal 30.06 signs
Here's another thought on the matter. Why do most businesses post the signs? Is it because the proprietor of the business WANTS to disarm his customers, or is it because the insurance company for these businesses are worried about being sued? Think about it. The business owner may get a discount, or...

Re: Question About Criminal Background
I can't call him on the phone as he is currently a guest of the state if you know what I mean. He has been in now for the last 7 years, and will probably get out in the next 3-5. Apparently they take attempted murder of a police officer very seriously in that state. It was bound to happen as he had ...

Thanks Charles. I have been lurking for a while and reading posts. Great site! I hope you are right and that this all works out in the end. I know I don't have any felony convictions so I should be alright. I just need to keep my wits about me, dig deep and find some patience, and hold on for the ri...

Question About Criminal Background
So, here's the deal. I applied for my CHL in April of this year. I still don't have my license. My application was returned once back in August because I left off a date for one of my previous addresses. No problem. I corrected it and sent it off again. Now, I get another letter stating that my appl...
