I love my Ed Brown... you can tell it looks like I've been digging post holes with it. I could get it refinished in GenIII again, but as it has worn with my custom holster, it is now super slick. Maybe one day I'll be in a position to media blast it off and polish it up.

Major, the .40 is a great round, and a super round for police officers. For me it's more about the frame. If held properly the 1911 it becomes a true extension of your hand, aiming becomes nearly instinctual. I just shoot WAY better with a 1911 than any other pistol I have tried. So I carry what I am good with The trigger is a sweet 1.5# glass bead break, no creep, and no uptake. Just happens to be .45

OK, I'm a pacifist, guys, you're scaring the crap out of me!!! 8-o8-o8-o

That being said, I have my trusty 12 gauge at ready always!!!

Am I the only man that likes a .357 here?!? Where is the revolver love! (Technically, it is my father's, lol.)

I'll take a revolver any day over a pistol. I love my Colt Python, I also have another 357 w/2" barrel that is ported. Very accurate at 30 ft.

 

[Torqueguy]

I love .223 as well. Have a Thompson G2 with. 24" bull barrel that likes to do this at 100yds, again, if I haven't been drinking coffee or if it's not windy

This is my baby. Her name is Baby.

The Python is tops. I like S&W for autos, but for revolvers there's only Colt.
I shoot a 1943 heavy barrel Match Police, the one with the adjustable front sights. That is the Pythons grandfather.

I love shooting .223 in my best friends ar-15. The military was the best thing that ever happened to him.

My first gun was an AR which is why I wanted 223 so badly lol.

I would say that my use of the phrase having a conscience is what would make you believe I disagree with certain practices of the world.

As far as people that break into houses the only patent I recommend is a Springfield 45ACP but that is another subject altogether. I am not one to promote violence but I am not about to cross a busy street without looking both ways either.

I agree on the change that this world needs, but that is also another discussion for another time. Lets just say my beliefs on that would not be stomached well by most.

+1 to this one.

This world is heading for a change sooner than later. It's nice to see that the GG family is well armed and at the ready should the worst happen.

follow-up to Kryczka:

I would like to thank you for sparking what turned into an interesting thread after my initial reservations about your intention.

Truth be told, I have said and done more provocative things.. After all, Inappropriattesville is my hometown.
I hope there are no hard feelings. But be careful, some on this thread are armed with guns

Cheers!

I was standing in line with a bunch of other attorneys in front of the judge's bench on a pretrial conference docket. The topic of (muted) conversation was the Jerome Erskland case, where a half crippled pharmacist was on murder 2 charges for shooting a robber in his business-reason for the prosecution being that a) he walked around and gave a coup de grace after the teenage punk was on lying on the floor unarmed and immobilized and (more importantly) b) he didn't think of taking the tapes out of the stores security cameras.

It evolved into a general discussion of the 'make my day' home defense law. The younger guys were snarling with bravado about 'blowing the away'. My response was that any man who had ever been through a divorce would question the wisdom of having a loaded firearm in his house. And the older guys quietly nodded in agreement.....

As for the misuse of laws from their intended purpose, I can't help but think of the Fourteenth Amendment equal protection clause to the US Constitution. Passed to protect the newly freed slaves at the end of the civil war, it initially fell into disuse as the country turned a blind eye to Jim Crow after Reconstruction. It was quickly revived, but only to protect large corporations from progressive state governments wishing to impose health and safety, wage and working reforms. It seems that laws are passed to protect people who don't have any rights, but end up being used by people with all of the money.

No 9mm love? I love weapons of all kinds, but I have only owned 2 firearms. A Remington 12ga pump, and this:

Laws are sometimes skewed in their application, even if their original intent is a good one. Personally I'd rather be judged by twelve, than be carried by six. Just my $.02.
