Re: Violent crime decrease attributable to Obama?
Has there actually been a violent crime decrease and since when? Based on this forum's postings a person would think we are poised on anarchy. Statistics have shown over the past years that murder rates in a lot of areas have reduced. However, in many areas assaults, robberies and burglaries have b...

Re: LCP Recall
I have a stick mag similar to that for my commander. Muzzle rise is more of a swing at each shot. As the mag empties the bucking gets tighter. Probably not as severe in 380 as 45 due to weight and recoil. Still fun in an out-of-control way.

Re: Question about borrowing a gun...
I would recommend taking him to a pawn shop and looking for an inexpensive shot gun. I bet you could find something decent for $150- $200. If he is a close friend and you want to loan him something, I think you are safe. Big word of caution, make sure you give him a trigger lock of some sort incase...

Re: help with suggesting self-protection
I see faith as working side-by-side common sense also. Even the Popemobil has bullet-proof glass.

Re: help with suggesting self-protection
I often hear "faith" being the reason not to actively prep for something. What can you say to that?

Re: Smith & Wesson Model 617 Anyone?
That part about spending $1000 to save money shooting .22 isn't quite the way it works. That 617 will always be worth what you pay for it. It's like owning a classic car - you drive it for free, excepting gas and oil. With a nice gun, all it costs you over time is the price of the ammo. Most guns h...

Re: Smith & Wesson Model 617 Anyone?
I like to shoot 22s because they're cheap but if you go in the hole for almost $1000 for the gun I'm not sure you will ever break even in your lifetime. It does look impressive though.

Re: Curious - Is this Forum Evidence?
I assume I'm not invisable and act/ type accordingly. My interest in CHL issues wouldn't fly with everyone I deal with so this forum adds a little cover for that reason. I would never bare my soul or give a confession in a place where I have no control or I'm unsure who I'm talking with.

Re: You'll shoot your eye out!

She didn't want to leave and wanted to keep going (What have I started!?! lol)! now for the pics! http://www.graficka.net/coppermine/annie/pictures/album...

Re: 8 years in State Prison
How many of you remember Michael Fay? He was a teenage punk who went on a graffiti crime spree in Singapore in the early ninety's. He got caught and was sentenced to 6 lashes with a cane. The American public freaked out by the horror. Personally, I think that is a lot better an option than prison. ...
