    Show us your Guns!

    I've seen pictures in the local paper of bear and moose taken down with 9mm and .40 caliber handguns, but it was typically cops who couldn't get to their shotgun in time. For a field handgun I want something with a heavier bullet and more penetration than 9mm or .30 Luger, especially if I only...

    Attorneys and Barristers of the Lounge

    Another (soon-to-be) late 30's law student here. I left the mortgage biz last February and went back to school after 15 years to finish my BA in Justice. Finishing up this Spring, taking the LSAT in Dec. and putting together my list of schools to apply to. Looking in the mid-Atlantic area...

    What do you do for Living?

    Thanks Harp. I'll add it to the "look into" list. Amazing how much work I have left to do (LSAT/applications/rounding up scholarships and such) to be ready for next Fall.

    Former mortgage banker, now back at school full time completing my BA in Justice. Planning on law school this time next year.

    Proper wearing of a belt?

    I believe it does. But that isn't the topic of this thread... bandwidth is cheap, when changing subject, a new thread is in order.

    Proper wearing of a belt?

    Note the context, I was talking about things/accessories worn on the belt (if that's necessary) matching the belt. Ex. black cell phone case on brown belt. Not jackets.

    Proper wearing of a belt?

    If those aren't hard and fast rules, by gumption they should be. :eusa_clap IMHO, any accessories worn on the belt (cell phone pouch and the like) should coordinate as well. Life is too short to wear black with brown.

    The ejector folds down. If you push it past parallel with the rails you have to take off a grip and manually depress its spring to flip it back up. You get used to it after a couple times of pushing it down too far.

    What Are You Reading

    I'll try... but I can't see her from my house. =) Re-read Louis L'amour's "Last of the Breed". Forgot how much I liked it. On to Eric Flint's 1632 next. Trying to get in some reading for fun before next semester.

    What Are You Reading

    A fun little romp by an internet acquaintance of mine called "Monster Hunter International". Big guns and bad critters. :D

    Show us your Guns!

    That would be one of the few Thompsons used by a "name" bandit that was actually purchased, heck even stolen, from a civilian gun store, as opposed to stolen from a Police or National Guard Armory.

    Zootshooting

    Some of the biggest growth in the shooting sports has been among women. A welcome change, I've spent wayyyyy too much time hanging out with guys like Dback and Story in my shooting career. :D

    Gin Lovers Unite!

    My bored bartender buddy got me on a new gin drink to mix it up a bit. Singapore Sling. Fortunately I'm both genuinely tough AND secure in my manhood, so I can sip fruity drinks without feeling threatened. :D

    Public Enemies

    It's my understanding (not owning a Thompson and not having shot the ones I have shot at night) that they actually don't produce much muzzle flash. The .45 ACP is pretty carefully designed to be optimized for the 5" barrel of the 1911 and wouldn't have much burning left to do at the end of the...
