    Ga Gun Store Won't Sell to Flippers

    You probably missed it in the comments, Georgia Gun Store clarified in the comments that they were not selling multiples of one model to online buyers off their website. They have a business to protect. In today’s environment their decision is simple prudence.

    Ga Gun Store Won't Sell to Flippers

    Doubtful. The folks that are butt hurt by this decision were never their customer base to begin with.

  4. Why do I bother looking at a thread that uses the word "Rare" to describe an item?

    Morbid curiosity...

  5. Selling/trading firearms privately in Georgia... legal requirements.

    Can you cite precedence here in Georgia that people with no previous record have been arrested due to a gun used in a crime being traced back to them? For that matter, can you give us a rough idea of how many times cops have used 4473s to trace ownership back to an individual purchaser?

  6. Mon. Rant No. 1 - inspection of real "collectors items"

    I used to think Gunbroker was the last great bastion of optimistic values and prices but I do believe the ODT is vying for that position... :)

  7. Why does everybody hate 40 s&w

    On the face of things that's correct. It's when one starts to dig a bit deeper that the flaw in the design of the cartridge comes to light. http://www.greent.com/40Page/ammo/40/180gr.htm

  8. Why does everybody hate 40 s&w

    It doesn't solve any problems that a 9mm doesn't. Ammo costs more, capacity is less, the guns don't hold up to as many rounds due to the higher pressures, and if you get the heavy loads you might as well get a 10mm.

  9. Lowball offer "justification"...

    I had a feller offer to buy a used SR-22 with two extra magazines. We confirmed that he was going to buy it as I was driving 50 miles to meet him. Once we met up the first words out of his mouth were "Can you do a little less than $300?" "Nope." "Feels like the side is loose... Can you...

    Mouse guns.

    :Exasperated Sigh: those instances aren't arms rare as you make them out to be. Regardless of your particular interpretation, the .380 is considered a mouse caliber. People that practice aren't really going to abuse themselves shooting a gun that's uncomfortable to shoot. That means...

    While poor technique is a factor, that's not always the case. You completely ignored the part about the .32 long.

    The .32 Auto has consistently better penetration than the .380, especially when heavier clothing is introduced.

    Mouse guns.

    Yes. Ninety percent of my work puts me in non permissive environments. Due to the nature of my work it is neither practical nor prudent to attempt to carry a Glock 19 or similar sized pistol. My concession to that is to carry an LCR in .38 Special. I chose the .38 as a matter of economics and...

    Claude and Michael both have snub specific classes. Furthermore Claude and I have discussed at length various applications for mouse calibers, usually specific to folks that are extremely recoil sensitive or lack hand strength.

    "In my experience the mindset of most people who carry .38 Spec. & smaller calibers is, "I don't really think I'll need one but want to have something" whereas the mindset of those who carry 9mm & larger guns is, "I think I will have to use this one day & want every advantage I can get"."...

    Mouse guns.

    Time is critical, accuracy is critical, caliber is irrelevant. The idea that one must train up to a certain caliber is disingenuous. I know too many people who can make 100% of their shots under stress and have proven it time and again. It seems to me you've come up with an arbitrary standard...

    Mouse guns.

    So to be able to get 80% hits in a USPSA target at three yards vs five yards vs seven yards vs ten and so forth is there a baseline of recommended time per distance? Why 80%? As I understand it we're legally accountsble for every bullet that leaves the muzzle and where it ends up. If ten...

    Mouse guns.

    At what range? I used to think the same as you until I started studying actual occurrences where people used a firearm to prevent an attack or stop one in progress. The idea that a .45 (or larger) will kill an attacker quicker just isn't backed up my what I've found. I'm not going to try...

    Thanks. My question stands. I'm not trying to bust chops so much as to see if I can learn something.
