      Arresting people for live fire training, REQUIRED for them to get their license

      Yep. My buddies Frank & Barbie who run RFI are moving out of NY state just to keep their business afloat due to this crap.

      Heartbreak 2023 Run-n-Gun - iron sights class

      Hearbreak is once per year in Feb. It's one of the premier RnG events and sells out in a matter of minutes every year. There are other premier events too though. Legion 9/11 is a fund raiser RnG event in Sept to help raise $ for Gold Star families. It sells out in minutes as well but now has...

      Heartbreak 2023 Run-n-Gun - iron sights class

      Jimmy did another great video after Heartbreak RnG 2023. These events are my new addiction, and the perfect "minute man, let's see what you & your gear" can endure training scenarios.

      10/22 barrel questions.

      Are you wanting it to shoot more accurately? If so, there's some other items to do before getting a barrel. There are also a few shops that can work magic on the factory barrel (https://ct-precision.com/ruger10-22.html).

      General Chat - Training, NVGs, Kit

      I've had a lot of fun night walking / hiking with my Sionyx Pro & it's not as good as this new one. Maybe I should sell my Pro & mount and step on up to this thing.

      Options for a lightweight backpacking/survival rifle?

      Where are you hiking and what size critters might you run into? A backpack gun inside of a backpack isn't exactly quick to deploy. Especially if it requires screwing on barrels, etc. Hiking around the Midwest, I might thrown the Keltec SUB2000 into my pack. I normally don't want the extra...

      Getting an impounded Firearm from Evidence, City County Building Downtown Indy

      I spent nearly what my pistol was worth having Kirk threaten to sue for "conversion". Don't tell him, but I was willing to break open my piggy bank to go ahead with the lawsuit had IMPD not released my pistol.

      Heartbreak 2023 Run-n-Gun - iron sights class

      I'm no youngun Hawkeye! :fogey: I'm torn between taking something effective vs tearing up my guns. Not that I have any, but these events aren't for safe queens. Here's an after event pic of my kit 2021!

      Heartbreak 2023 Run-n-Gun - iron sights class

      My M1A in the plastic stock shot poorly. The Noveske 9" 300BLK upper was doing much better & is what I'll carry for this match. I didn't see much difference between 125 & 140gr. Both are supersonic with similar accuracy & zero. My suppressor is heavy + that weight is at the wrong place for...

      Heartbreak 2023 Run-n-Gun - iron sights class

      I've whittled it down to my M1A. *IF* this gun can hold ~2 MOA. The heavy scope and mount have been removed & it's mounted into a flimsy composite Springfield stock. Accuracy will surely suffer, but weight unloaded is down to 9#. 2nd choice is the SBR with supersonic ammo. Sights are worse...

      Heartbreak 2023 Run-n-Gun - iron sights class

      I'm heading to KY for another 10k Run-n-Gun at the end of Feb & need help figuring out what gun to shoot. I keep waffling but am signed up for iron sights only class. I have a few long guns to pick from and need INGO help. A little background on this event 1st. It's a 10k biathlon run...

      Best bourbon under $50?

      Well after extensive taste testing by my girlfriend, we've found out that she really doesn't care for anything aged in oak barrels. The good side of this testing is she won't be drinking any of my bourbon, whiskey, Reposado or Anejo neat! "Candy" whiskey she likes. Plata tequila she likes...

      Best bourbon under $50?

      The EC 18 yrs runs mid two hundreds. I hear it's very "oaky" & not for everyone. I haven't opened it yet. I tend to shy away from the really old bourbons but wanted to give this one a try.

      ‘What goes up must come down’: IMPD reminds Indy residents danger of celebratory NYE gunfire

      I heard some rounds fire off amongst the fireworks here on the NE side of town. Pretty typical even for a semi-hoodrat part of town. All I can say is 22LR nailgun rounds are LOUD when set off by a 22LR revolver.

      Getting an impounded Firearm from Evidence, City County Building Downtown Indy

      ^^ this guy right here is who got my Shield 9mm out of IMPD inventory room purgatory. Even after his call to city councel, & councel's agreement to promptly return, an IMPD officer in the 4th floor fingerprint office delayed me another day. I blew up at him, nearly cussing him out, stomped out...

      Which a 1301 or M4

      The M4 is a heavy beast of a shotgun. It's a superb castle defense weapon with ~14 rounds on the gun. There's little recoil. Like mentioned up thread, it eats everything full power. Mine doesn't like light recoil loads even when freshly cleaned and lubed. That being said, I don't think...

      NFA Timelines Thread

      [sorry, this probably needs split into a new thread] My frustration stems from a forced withdrawl, delayed $ refund & resubmit. This, after months of waiting, put me at the back of the line causing a duplication of efforts by me, my FFL & the FBI/ATF. All over a very minor error on a new, not...
