    LAPD caught beating a woman

    Re: LAPD caught beating a woman Wow, thats amazing. You know, if it wasnt for that grainy video, with NO sound, NO recordings or statments from the OFFICERS, and only the (sarcastic tone ON)Honest and unbiased reporting of the media, I thought this was going to be a one sided story... Oh...

    Gunsmithing PC-7

    Has anyone used this as a bedding material. I was looking into high strength epoxies and their availability. This stuff is just as available as JB, Devcon not so much, and not many boating supply places in the desert, so MarineTex isn't one of those "just run out n get" items either. I was...

    Movie Theater Falling Skies

    Re: Falling Skies I gonna guess here..the Overlords tripped over their dicks at some point doing their whole conquer and enslave thing. Picked a fight with the wrong ones and now they're on the run, still trying to do the conquer and enslave thing. Looks like they planned on standing their...

    Re: Law enforcement disrespect Wow. Haven't seen a gem of a post like this in a while. I didn't even start this one. OP, when/if you end up putting on the badge, you will be hanging hate and discontent from a majority of the people in the country. Its ok though. See its cool to hate the...

    WARNING ~ TR ~ My experience

    Re: WARNING ~ TR ~ My experience Wow. I read the entire thread only for the shear fact that I have NEVER seen a post mass up to 6 pages in less than a week. This thread had everything, mostly drama, lacking any real action. JSC, I read and understand your issue with regards to the lack of...

    Filing down the tip of a .223/5.56?

    Re: Filing down the tip of a .223/5.56? There are rifle rounds made for defensive purposes. Why re-invent the wheel and invite liability? Hornady TAPs come in an "Urban" flavor, its got a HPBT and is a low penetration round. Winchester Rangers are actually a pointed soft point, just like your...

    Movie Theater Silent Hill: Revelation

    Ita a sequal creepy game that I liked to play on PS2 a while back. The first movie was fairly true to the game, which is something that I like to see when they make games into movies. I like it when they follow the story line as close as they can. So this one looks like it takes some of the...

    Re: Finally Got the M&P 9 I just got my wife a MP9 today. After handleing it and doing some dry fires, I am wanting one for myself now. Thinking about trading in my USP40 for an MP40. The pistol just feels good and has a good NPA. Cant wait to go shoot hers.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Marines to field Colt .45 1911

    Re: Marines to field Colt .45 1911 With all due respect, a statement like "Glocks are considered the most reliable pistols on the planet, period." is kind of one-sided and baseless. Don't get me wrong, they are one of the most popular pistols out there. But who is "considering" them to be...
