He probably won't enjoy shooting a 10mm much. But it's a pretty good round for that use.

Unless you're on orders, most states require you to get a local driver's license within 30 or 60 days.

I thought he was talking about having it shipped to another state. The ATF says to buy it in the state you live in; for their purposes, your ID card and orders showing that you're there officially meets the residency requirement. THAT is your home state, not wherever your license is from.

If you're not on orders, you're probably breaking another law by not having the right DL.

No idea, but I also don't see any reason why, if I'm buying a revolver, I'd want one in loving 10mm. Everything that one can do, something else can do better and probably cheaper.

On top from back to front is a magnifier, optic (red dot I think), laser. On the right side of the barrel is a flashlight, underneath is a vertical grip.

Should I :

A. Take screen shots of posts and report them to Facebook?

B. Invite every non white person on my friends list into said group?

C. Both

1. Wait until you see someone circumventing the law.

If I read, much less hear, another loving handgun caliber debate I'm going to take a cut-down double barrel pistol and face-gently caress these goony motherfuckers with glitter-packed shot shell handloads.

I used to be a huge non-fan of 9mm. There's been a LOT of ballistic improvement since ~2000 when I last cared to look at it. Earlier this year I started looking at compacts because I was tired of trying to pretend a full-size 1911 was a good CC weapon. Had no interest in 9mm because all of my guns are a different caliber, and I wanted something that would share. Then I compared ballistics and found that a decent defense round in 9mm will perform perfectly fine. Then I compared prices, and holy poo poo ammo is like half the price of 45.

Now I have a 9mm Shield. And I can actually afford to practice with it. And still, none of my guns share ammo.

"The average gun owner would not shoot indiscriminately into a crowd of people" is not an argument. No one gives a poo poo about the average gun owner. We care about the few outliers who kill enough people to justify a broad-based preventative policy.

Passing another law to make murder illegal isn't going to stop any murders. Direct efforts into poverty and mental health, where it will actually help.

What are you talking about those are exactly the people that you need to be worried about because gun owners are retarded. There should be more to getting a concealed carry license than paying :10bux:. You should be required to know basic gun laws, shoot/don't shoot scenarios, basic gun safety, and pistol marksmanship to include drawing and firing from a holster.


Both states I've gotten permits from had exactly that requirement, except one didn't have the holster bit.

Put it under a lot of stress or hit the back of the blade and see what happens to a $3 liner lock vs. a Spyderco. Idk if they're still made, but Spyderco makes some cheaper knives in China for like $40. Really solid knife that I'm not afraid to lose or break.

These aren't things I do. Sounds like I'm just not in the demographic for high end knives. I could buy a lifetime supply of these cheap ones for less than a mid-range Spyderco.

The counterargument is that you wouldn't need to buy a lifetime supply of cheap knives if you bought a single decent knife.

I'm at a decade+ with the first one, so I'm ok with it. If I had ever run across problems with knives chipping or breaking with normal use, I'd spend extra to get something more durable. But I've pried, cut, etc for years and never had an issue. Maybe I lucked into a good and cheap one, I dunno. I just have a hard time imagine what people are doing any different that's making blades snap on the reg.

Carrying a full size pistol sucks, generally. I've done it with a Beretta 96 and a 1911. I had my eye on the XDS for a couple of years, but after shooting one of those and a friend's wife's Shield, I flipped and bought Shield right away.
