    Ethics - Lying to make an arrest

    imported post I was watching COPS last night, and I saw a bit from Pittsburg, PA, where two undercover drug officers arrested a guy for possession of a crack pipe. The arrest was dirty from the word go. Here's what happened: The guys are driving down the street to where they say is a drug...

    Sig Mosquito

    imported post I'm thinking about getting into suppressors, since my family has land in Idaho ;) Anyway, I like the look and feel of the Mosquito, and since I carry a P226, it seems like it would be a great plinker/training gun (especially if you want to train to deal with FTFs, FTEs, etc :P...

    Shot placement

    imported post So I find that there are two polar opposites when it comes to caliber wars. In pistol caliber comparisons, there is a big 9mm vs. 45acp arguement. In rifle caliber comparisons, there is a big 7.62x54 vs. 5.56/.223 arguement. Now this has been known for a long time, and the...

    Anybody know where I can find a threaded barrel?

    imported post I am trying to find a way to get a threaded barrel for a Bersa Thunder 380. Before we get into why I would want to spend big bucks silencing a $250 gun, I am thinking about getting a suppressor for a much nicer gun, and if I can use it on the Bersa too, it sweetens the deal. So I...

    Full auto case law

    imported post OK, so there was a case in bellevue (I think) where some guy was arrested for having a select-fire M4. He beat the charge in the state supreme court because the rifle didn't have a magazine attached, and therefore could not have fired more than one round with one pull of the...

    Can we press charges against police officers when they break the law?

    imported post In the case that a police officer says something along the lines of:[size=2] This is acknowledging that OC is legal, but threatening to arrest you and book you anyway. This is a violation of several laws, but here are the main ones that interest me: [/b]And So here it is...

    What does it mean to you to be "manly"?

    imported post So we toss around the word "manly" a lot here, and generally reffering to large caliber weapons or the smell of burnt gun powder. I thought it would be nice to take a moment and define what each of us thinks it means to be a man. I don't mean "have a penis", that makes you male. I...

    The term "Sheeple"

    imported post I hear the term "sheeple" a lot in the gun community, especially on the OC forums. I never like to hear this, because it seems so derogitory. It sounds like we claim some kind of superiority over average Joe citizens. I don't know if I'm taking it the wrong way, but to me it...

    No knock warrants

    imported post One of my biggest fears in this new world of drug wars and terror wars is that a no-knock warrant will be served on my apartment, like what happened to that 91 year old woman.

    imported post Have we determined a location or time for the OC lunch? Is it Saturday or Sunday? Are we doing one on each day? If no one else is willing to come up with a place to meet, I suggest that we go to Dennys in Bellevue (ne 8th and 116th) at 2:00pm on Saturday. I don't care if we go...
