I'm checking my e-mails and reading "Armory Life"... duh! :p

Not to pick nits, but wasnt the first blood shed when the Union soldiers were killed at Ft Sumter (even if "accidentally" or as we say today "negligently")? A true pity that more secesh thugs werent killed in Maryland on April 19th 1861, IMO. The "When you mess with the bull you get the horns"...

35 years on a pair a pants and still no reason to change? o_O And I thought I got real mileage outta my sweats...:D

"Stupid is as stupid does"...

What the heck is a "**** hound"? Some new unknown breed?

No, the grip safety wasn't a mistake. Leaving one off the BHP was a mistake. IMO, YMMV... The 1911 was originally designed as a cavalry weapon, and the GS and half-cock notch are both there to prevent accidental discharges if dropped. The trigger safety on the Glock is a joke, there is no way...

So far no griz, either, eh...

He's hardly an "idiot" and sharing his knowledge and experience is hardly bloviation. Speaking of which, look who's talking!

"Then the thought popped into my head that it would take just one molotov cocktail to absolutely ruin my day." This exact concern has bedeviled me for several years now... Not of course that I have anything anyone would want to risk their lives for, but people being what they are... an Old Fart...

I quote from the Bible where the author of Isaiah says that GOD creates evil- and that makes me a determinist whose personal choices are meaningless- and a "LOON":rolleyes:? LOL! Personally I don't see how you pulled that from what I said and it certainly isnt what I believe... Did you actually...

"As one to me are shame and fame, as one to me are praise or blame"... - Buddhist Pali Canon (rough rendition). Japanese Buddhism is moderated by Shinto, a kind of state religion- loyalty and duty to family, clan, emperor, and by "bushido", the unwritten military/samurai code of chivalrous...

Isaiah 45:7 (KJV) "I form the light, and create darkness; I make peace, and create evil; I the LORD do all these things". Right there, the Bible says that The Almighty does indeed "create evil". The text can be argued, but the fact is that NO- THING exists outside the Divine Will.

Interesting if perhaps an overly-complex personal defense weapon... Make mine a 10mm.. :D

It's been my experience that "things" kick into place when a "situation" arises. We respond according to our natures and our training... training can make the difference between dealing with the situation, OR conversely, "running around like a chicken with it's head cut off". Training can make...

I may or may not be "lost", that's for The Almighty in His merciful Holy Wisdom to decide. Insofar as concerns firearms, I have more years and experience than the two of you put together. It's your loss that you are closed to learning from those older, wiser and with broader experience... :cool...

You lost me at "You lost me at Ayoob"... :rolleyes:

There is a Mossberg 500 next to the bed, and a Glock .40 under the pillow to get me to the shotgun. That's if they got past the Staffie...

I carried either a Combat Commander or a HiPower for decades. Now in my dotage errr... "golden years", it's a Glock 19 or G21. Weight, size, and general handiness are the factors influencing my decision..

Personally I wouldnt touch a SIG 320- or pretty much any SIG these days. That's just me, I don't want any lousy guns from a company that doesnt back their product. Get a Ruger, Walther, Glock, or Smith. JMO, YMMV!
