    More magazine capacity

    More magazine capacity is never a bad thing …. Unless your in water over your head or on fire. Disclaimer: I’ve never been on fire, in the water with gun and ammo over my head or even been in a gunfight. However, I have given a lot of thought to the topic. Capacity gives me options. That...

    Magazine maintenance

    It’s an Interesting idea/topic to consider. Now I’ve got something else to worry about…..errrrr……I mean obsess over. I never really thought about changing springs and followers and bumper pads. Heck, I’m not sure how to even open up a Glock magazine and my 1911 mags might malfunction if I...

    The truth about deadly force encounters

    A defendant charged with a felony has the right to what's referred to often as a "plea on information," which short-circuits a GJ and indictment. The defendant also waives his/her preliminary (probable cause) hearing if they decide to plea on "information."

    The truth about deadly force encounters

    Nope. Not the same thing. A preliminary hearing is a probable cause hearing, filed by the Defendant. Even if a judge doesn't find sufficient probable cause and tosses the felony case at that point, it can still be indicted.

    TNW Areo Survival Rifle

    The last time I looked, I thought they were overpriced compared to say, a generic AR. I think if I were stuck out in the boonies, I'd rather have an AR than something like this. IDK. Just my thoughts.

    The truth about deadly force encounters

    Considering how criminal appellate courts generally tend to rule on appeals, no surprise. It's true that the DA does not have to introduce all evidence at the GJ stage, only evidence favorable to secure an indictment. But the saying is true, a grand jury will indict a ham sandwich. At trial...

    The truth about deadly force encounters

    Interesting to me, if for no other reason than it seems like a huge amount of work to do that.....espically when a GJ will indict whatever you "urge" them to indict (i.e., a ham sandwich). Not to mention, the actual jury that would hear the trial would not include any members of the GJ, by law...

    Handguns for Bear Defense: Will Any of Them Stop the Threat?

    I would agree, and I would also not pick a Glock 20 if I were hunting bear. I believe there are better choices. Now if I were in a bush-plane crash or canoeing down some river, then yes, I'll take the Glock.

    Survival Capsule anyone?

    Those of us in hurricane-prone areas have a saying, hide from the wind but run from the water. I'd rather not be underground in a flood-prone area, but that's just me.

    Always Be Ready: What’s In Your FEAR Bag?

    Keep a couple of knives in the truck, at the camp, around the house. Same with Bic lighters. Those two, and a country boy can survive.

    Always Be Ready: What’s In Your FEAR Bag?

    The example in the OP article was stranded in your car, and a Molotov cocktail gets tossed at your car. If I'm stuck in traffic, first off, I am a dumb a** for getting into that situation. Secondly, if we are ALL stopped, I am out of the car immediately and on the move. I think if you stay...

    Always Be Ready: What’s In Your FEAR Bag?

    Some good ideas in this thread, and I get the premise, but that premise is, I think, somewhat flawed. If there is civil unrest, I am not out and running errands. I am close to my camp, hunkering down, and hyper-vigilante. Civil unrest does not occur in a vacuum. In today's world, there is...

    New Digital Surveillance Tools Threaten Gun Owner Privacy

    A warrant is required, absent an exception. What the Court did not do is get into the sufficiency of the search warrant at issue in the case. The Fourth Circuit initial opinion held that geofences are not a search, so that opinion never examined the warrant. The en banc decision was a 14-14...
