Law 3-M. I sat on the sidelines until Law made the 3-M improvements, when I was convinced they got it right. It's very well designed for function and durability. Had it for several years. Useful as I see it in two roles. Folding a braced pistol or SBR down to a minimum storage size which...
I am not entirely with the program! My fault for not following the link. You probably deduced that I interpreted it as a link to the actual Cerakote coating products.
In the follow-on discussion sorry to hear about the decline in Leupold service, which often reflects a failure to retain the...
There's no full accounting for variations in visual tastes, but I think the move to black scopes is because black looks pretty good with everything, including stainless and other silver finish firearms. Better not to manage twice the SKUs in black and silver, and put SKU variations into...
Better results than I would have expected. If nothing is out of spec where it really matters, I'd have that thing parked. It's a fairly course textured finish that won't contrast as bad with the damage, it holds a coating of oil well, and it will look a lot like some of the rougher USGI 1911s...
Acknowledgement to Keith_Indy on the prior MISO reference. I read through the whole thread but somehow when I clicked through to page 2, the top of the scroll window advanced down to post #24.
There is no reason to speculate (who controls the distribution of electricity?) when it's a simple and public fact. MISO controls the grid for Indiana and a large chuck of North American. See the map at the Wikipedia link. See more information on MISO's site...
Apparently firearms manufacturers don't suffer as much as I would expect in the Internet era from reported manufacturing and quality control issues, which I would hope would lead to them acting rapidly to correct their processes. Certainly these companies should be aware of a wider range of...
I think the LCR or my preference the exposed hammer LCRx is an excellent design with a great trigger and the only really effective two finger grip (no pinky support) I've ever used. But I would not touch one in that oddball caliber unless I planned to stock ammo deep or I had slept through the...
If you want someone to tell you, go ahead and keep shooting that rifle, that is not me. If you want someone to tell you, stop shooting that rifle until the stock is properly replaced, that is me.
The action remains as safe as it was before it cracked. I have no knowledge of how safe it...
A lot of this is valid input on why the prices are very high now. I can give you some input on the pros and cons in its actual time, as I carried one for several years. I had zero concern over what was cool or in a given movie, just straight up functionality. Consider there were far fewer...
I have a P1, no issues except the poor choice of an oddball battery with inadequate energy capacity. I bought a pile of the oddball batteries to where their shelf life will probable expire before I run through all of them, although right now it's not on a continuous standby pistol so I'm not...
Sorry to hear the trend with Nelson's. That first and only visit was probably March 2022. Store interior space was mostly uniform, although I'd never been to Jenkins to compare.
Maybe foot traffic is off enough that Nelson's has shifted more toward webstore/mail order?
When I looked at...
Nelson & Co. is already established in Greencastle and probably equally or more convenient coming from most directions (the locations where more population is located) as Terre Haute would be.
I'm not in the LE field to use the uniform side of their business, but ran down there once looking to...
In my opinion the most robust scope with the highest magnification you can get for that amount of money is a Nightforce SHV 4-14x56. Euro Optic has a sale running where they pay the sales tax and the non-illuminated model comes in just under $1000.
By watching their demo sales I paid just over...
If you want an A2 clone AR, that is in reference to M16A2; the configuration would be a 20" A2 profile barrel on an A2 fixed carry handle upper receiver. You can find photos all over online, but the A2 profile is "heavy" in front of the front sight and reduced diameter under the hand guards...
PRI was the first product I was aware of designed to reduce the gas problem, have used the original M84 Gas Buster Charging Handle - Military Big Latch for many years including 10.5" suppressed uppers, and it had been out many years before that. (So either PRI were the first to invent the idea...
wcd, I just meant without more context I did not think a lot of folks would be familiar with UTM versus the better known Simmunitions, and that is was useful to know ATF was going after this apparently as a US import issue given it is produced in the UK.
In total agreement with you it is...
I'm going to estimate something over 85% of readers could use this link to understand what is going on (UTM brand, made in UK, ATF banned from import for non-LE/mil):

You stated you are an M17 owner, and it sounded as if you were unaware of the issues reported with the P320 so I was expanding on my personal thread-relevant concerns that have put my own purchase of an M17 on hold, just so you would have that awareness and could assess your own comfort level...
Creedmoor, referring to the video documented discharge of a law enforcement P320 that was untouched in the holster. If you search on something like "P320 holster discharge" you should be able to find the video in one of several places. That follows a lot of prior reports, but there is rightly...
