Not to mention it's a full auto short barrel! I'd say anything over 25 yards he would be lucky to hit his target a few times.

I'd love to go to Knob Creek though... that show they put on at night looks awesome as does the walk through course they have. Saw some great stuff on Mail Call for that place.

I'm thinking about trading in my Desert Eagle and picking up another AR15. The DE is just fun to shoot but not very pratical and since I sold my AR about a year ago I am really missing it. Any suggestions on a nice AR around $1k?

This thread seems an appropriate candidate for transfer over to Gear-Fi.

We're Number 1!

In other news, just picked up one of these.

Notes:

7 round, flush fit Officers magazines suck. Last round feeding gets inconsistent ~ 200 round mark as slide speed slows from powder residue. No issues with Colt 6 rounders.

Sig's Revolution line of 1911s do not fit into standard 1911 holsters very well. The slide has the usual Sig blockiness and is a tight fit.

The thumb safety is very nice. Actuation of the safety has a sharp, solid, audible click. Higher weight than normal though, and wouldn't be surprised if this part didn't interchange with other 1911 parts.

I really like the CCO format.

I can appreciate that ppl need guns for two purposes: firing range competition and hunting (tell me if there's some other purpose, self defense doesn't count, because what's the different between if someone kills you or you kill them? Still a gun related death). I reckon for either purpose, the guns would be best kept at some arbitrary (although secure) public place, like a gun owner's depot of some sort, with auditing of time in/time out, and you take the guns when and where needed and it's on record. This kind of warehouse would be best in industrial suburbs etc, not next to townhall :p I think there would be less incidents with kids in homes and crazy idiots taking them to public places with only malicious intent.



You can claim self defense for shooting a bear. We have some nice bears up in the northeast and i would not like to get mauled. And a lot of people are collectors but most people want protection. (Example, someone breaking in to your house) But most people don't really use their weapons, maybe 4 times a year. Its there for an emergency or its there for intimidation. If you have a gun and someone else does each are scared of getting shot by the other so the weapons are not even used. Kinda like the cold war. Just a stand off to intimidated your opponent. A rough percent of the US population kill people with there guns. The thing is America has the most guns per people, so if you give a place like Burma the same percent of guns per people we have i think you would be more scared of them. And there will always be events like Columbine, there are crazy people in the world and one crazy person with a gun shouldn't ruin it for the rest of us.

Guns don't kill people, people don't kill people, heart stoppage do to massive blood loss kills people......

That's my story, too, and I'm stickin' with it.

Marvin: I tried a bunch of the Sig 1911 triggers and was not impressed. Seemed it would take another $100 to make things acceptable. Interesting to hear they goober up within 200 rounds enough to be unreliable on last round feed. This is something I don't usually encounter in 1911s until 800-900 rounds post cleaning.
