In a way, I am inclined to agree with you. I feel like a lot of younger people make snap decisions when it comes to voting based on simple things like appearance.
The fact of the matter is that Donald Trump looks healthy, I recently told a girl i've been seeing who isn't very political but kinda leans to the left of center, that he is 74 years old. She was like "FOR REAL? I thought he was in his 50s or something!"
Joe Biden looks like he's got one foot in the grave. Sounds like it too. There's absolutely nothing appealing about Joe Biden to anyone, other than him NOT being Trump and the memory of Obama which is a good thing to some.
Honestly I hope it only lasts a couple days, like it did for my Aunt. I really don't want him to have to miss the 2nd debate, the town hall is where he wins over everyone on the fence.
I'll tell you who I know are on the fence. Young liberal women who are creeped out by biden more than Trump because "at least Trump likes women over 18".
Also, young women respect his confidence and the way he projects strength naturally. Deep down they know we need a real man at the helm, even if they won't ever say it out loud i believe that is how they will vote. for the most part.
They ideally want a liberal from Fox News. That way mainstream American Trump voters, generally old people I mean, will think that it's less biased.
But it doesn't work on my 72 year oid dad.
I need to be concise with my posts. I dated a girl who had an M&P in 380 and that thing kicked as much as my Glock 23 being as light as it was. The Glock weighs a good bit more.
Glock Inc claims 30% less recoil and 30% longer spring life with the Gen 4 dual RSA. Which is why i say the 22/23 are the best Gen 4s. They used to use 9mm weight springs for the .40 which is what earned it's "snappy" reputation. It is a snappier round, thats true, but not anywhere near as bad as some make it out to be when shot through the right platform.
HK USP in .40 is the smoothest shooting centerfire handgun i've ever fired.
Not including 1911s.
Alphawolf 357SIG
KKM 9mm
If you get a slide that fits a .40 barrel i believe you can actually just drop in an OEM Glock 357SIG barrel if you like.
But yes if you got the .40 slide, 9mm, 357 and problem solva, the world is yours :)
EDIT: There really is something satisfying and cathartic about just saying the caliber. It just sounds right. Two Syllables. Forty.
What do you say if the convicted felon in question goes a certain number of years without committing any crimes? I'm thinking a friend of mine who got an assault charge when he was 20, and now he's 35 and is a very good family man, takes care of 3 kids and 1 that isn't even his. A good person by all metrics, one that just made a mistake when they were younger. He doesn't even drink or smoke. I think he should be allowed to own a gun. So I guess what I'm saying is if you are a felon, but like go you 7 years without so much as a parking ticket maybe having your gun rights should be restored. People grow and change and I don't think anyone should have to pay for one mistake forever unless they do not change their ways.
My hypocrisy only goes so far.
Poor Soul. He was just too high strung.
I'm afraid the strain was more than he could bear.
Because why neck a 10mm at all?
That'd be up in Kennesaw, sir
Am I crazy for thinking that even convicted felons should be allowed to own at least one gun that they should have to keep in their home and not be allowed to carry?
I forgot to acknowledge your last comment and yes. If I could get a 10mm that I could convert to a 9mm as easily, or even to .40, then I would own that instead. But I don't see a reason to get rid of this one :)
He prefers to carry a S&W 586 with some 158gr JHPS
I understand his decision, but I told him he should get a backup G43/Hellcat/LCP9
I have to admit that when I first got the gun, I had some trouble with the bottom lug and kinda fudged up the plastic around the pins. I felt very stupid when I figured out all I had to do was wiggle the slide lock and it came right out. I had gotten angry thinking I was supposed to tap it from a certain angle. Oh well. I'm planning to get it stippled or at least put Talon Grips on it.
The Glock is stock except for the safety plunger spring, the trigger shoe, and the connector is a Ghost Angel 3.0.
It has a 3.6lb trigger pull with a rolling break as smooth as my SIG.
I have eliminated the Gen 4 grit/bump without changing out the trigger bar. Slide Stop is the factory one, it's just lost it's black coating for the most part, and the flash from the camera makes the pins and mag release look overstated.
Yeah I experimented putting a little piece of grip tape on the bottom of the trigger guard, and I kinda like it with my grip. Every little bit helps, and to me, that matters more than looking great. That said, I just ordered granulated Talon Grips.
I have gotten pretty good shooting the .40 caliber. I was introduced to guns with high recoil as I was introduced to them older. I was always stocky in size, so my dad actually let me shoot a 12 gauge when i was 13 and i handled it pretty well. So to be honest I've always felt like the .40 had a healthy snap, but it was never anything that couldn't be compensated for after you shoot it enough. I like the round more now because as you've said it's become cheaper than 9mm and, well, there is a lot to be said for that. However, I tend to recommend 9mm to my friends getting their first pistol. and I say to get 10mm if their reason for getting one is primarily to take it hiking.
I'd say that when down to FMJ bulk ammo, .40 trumps the 9mm, but when you can get premium hollow points, there's not as much benefit in using .40 over 9.
EDIT: Oh and the knuckle cuts are crucial on the .40. The higher you can get on the bore axis, the more predictable the recoil becomes. It made a difference in my shooting for sure in ways other than comfort.
I love my G23.4. Best Gen4 in my opinion. I have a 9mm and a 357SIG conversion barrel for it. I prefer .40 because its what I have trained the most with and I am good with it, currently I believe it's also the cheapest centerfire pistol cartridge.
I have G17C that I occasionally carry, but it's not a good choice for night time carry. Sometimes in the summer, I might carry this with my KKM 9mm barrel and extractor.
I bought the 357SIG barrel and about 250 Gold Dots and another 500 Speer Lawman TMJs in 357SIG in May and it was cheaper than 9mm ammo of the same type. Go figure. I love all three rounds for different reasons.
In the end, my .40 caliber Glock is the last Glock i'd ever sell because of its ability to shoot 3 different calibers. I think everyone should own at least 1 Glock 22/23. Perfect SHTF handgun.
I would buy one but I hear so many negative things about Taurus revolvers. I'd definitely buy a S&W governor if they made one with a larger frame and barrel like the Raging Judge.
I feel like there's gotta be more to that story. Like maybe he actually lived there or something and was robbing his roommate? IDK. I have heard the story and I know it's true I just feel like there are more details. At least, I hope there are.
You forgot the space cowboy part of his full title.
I'm tight on money right now but I still give $5. And I'll give more later.
True. At 17 I was up to nothing but smoking pot and playing video games. I had a job, but I wasn't any hero.
Could you possibly give me some kind of source or data for that information so that I can better convince one of my libtard friends that free healthcare is NOT free at all.
Anthony Jeselnik i believe is still pretty good.
Dan Cummins as well, but I haven't hear anything from him in a few years.
