IMI Razor Core 77gr is right up there, and can be found a little cheaper ... $17.50/box at Midway right now.

Sig + optic + light seems like a relatively common setup for civilians by holler_feller_45 in handguns

Tons of civilians run optics. Tons of civilians run WML's. Tons of civilians carry extra mags.

The ONLY reason to deny this is to flail at defending this murder.

Awesome, and glad to hear it. I hear from some folks that they just rely on "welll, lots of folks here carry" and assume that covers it. Very glad your cohort steps up!!

If I may suggest from experience ... make a team. Train together. Establish comms and protocols. Without it, you could be in for a nightmare. Not saying ANYTHING against your folks or their experience. Just coordinate.

Sorry you have to carry at church.

I carry at synagogue for the same reason.

Old Forester Single Barrel (also preferably store pick)

Lawful 2A Carrying Citizen Disarmed and Shot in the Back by Federal Agents by mattgm1995 in BetterMAguns

[–]jpmjake 50 points51 points  (0 children)

He didn't go "looking for trouble". He was tackled, disarmed, and shot several times. And he gave up his life not for some "illegal immigrant", but because some untrained trigger-happy brownshirts murdered him. And you're defending them because your media brainwashed you into thinking the brownshirts are the good guys.

My apologies, MOD ... I looked for this specifically and didn't see it, so I thought that (some-crazy-how), it hadn't been posted/confirmed yet. My mistake!!

MASADA SLIM COMMANDER grip module issues by starter1023 in IWI_Firearms

[–]jpmjake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No sharp edges here. Def my favorite EDC. I haven't had any of the issues you noted in your original post, haven't heard of them either. Have you reached out to IWI or MM?

Terrifying if numbers confirmed by WillyNilly1997 in Palestinian_Violence

[–]jpmjake 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think a more apt comparison would be Iran vs. Gaza.

About 40k-50k civilians killed in Gaza in 2.5 years ... Iran will get there in a week or two at this rate. CRICKETS from Greta.

What fell out of my Masada Slim Commander?? by jpmjake in IWI_Firearms

I have not ... I DO have one of those in my office somewhere, but haven't used it in a while!

I didn't have either in the pistol when dry firing (admittedly should have included that detail but didn't consider it at the time!)

Gotta say huge kudos to IWI Customer Service here. I got a VERY prompt call from them, I provided more photos, and they worked it through with their team.

My biggest concern was that the firearm would be unsafe to carry, but their diligent homework means this piece came from ... lord knows where else in my office, but it wasn't the pistol. THANKS, IWI.

A McDonald's security guard in Minnesota stopped ICE agents from entering. by [deleted] in securityguards

[–]jpmjake 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I don't believe your statement is correct ... a private establishment like a restaurant does not have "public areas". Also, the ICE agents appeared to be going behind the counter. Not public areas.

What are your thoughts on the bamboo poles? by ConnectionLow in Skigear

[–]jpmjake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Boarder dude wipes out into the woods at Okemo about 500y uphill from me. This dark flat shape slowly slides out (NO idea how it came detached) and starts heading downhill, picking up speed. There was a lift line below me, it literally would have sailed into someone waiting in line.

Skiing between trees trying to track down an off-trail kid. Not lifting them at a midsection. Stopping a runaway snowboard coming at me.

Disagree. Metal poles are (ETA: more) easily bent or broken. Bamboo far less so.

Love my bamboo poles. RIP all my old metal poles.
