Yeah, everything's shall-issue. The pistol permits system is a Jim Crow dinosaur.

Kind of. We have to get handgun purchase permits in NC (unless we have concealed carry permits); I got stalled getting my permits, so the gun arrived before I'd finished all the crap involved.

Finally brought it home.

My next handgun might well be a S&W 617. Yeah that's right, a full-size .22LR revolver. :D

Reflex optics and scout scopes for EVERYONE

Chamber check on revolver: swing cylinder out partway, put it back in. Chamber check on autoloader: press slide back, eyeball chamber. It's a training problem, and police are far from good role models for firearms procedures. Point still remains: all of this would be moot if people would...

I dunno about all this "HIDDEN ROUND OMG" BS. I just check chamber every time I pick up a gun. Geez. Kahrs also require you to pull the trigger to disassemble, but I don't hear people b****about Kahrs all the time. I have heard a few stories of people going "OMG WTF" when they're starting to...

Depends on whom you ask, really. The 1911 dates back to (durr) 1911, and has a button release. Lots of European pistols had/ha ve heel releases. Whatever.

He has, he was just having "issues" today. As for speedloaders, do you mean sidesaddles and the like? Not particularly, I'm not a shotgunner in any sporting sense

My very first pistol! Military surplus, of course. :D CZ-82. 9x18 Makarov, DA/SA, and a proper manual safety. Yay C&L carry (once I get my concealed carry permit). *** From shooting today (I was on Range 2 at PDHSC)... Roommate modeling the CZ82: Me shooting the CZ82: video...

Regarding pistols, you could probably draw them one-handed, and all the two-handed pistol stances are a relatively new thing (around the '60s, I think). If anything, there should be a "draw sidearm" key. Grenades...meh. I just wish your character wouldn't fish out a second one after throwing...

When using bolt, I'll generally go for a stab when possible, simply because I want to avoid emptying my magazine. I also do a lot of sneaking around, so I prefer to keep my position (relatively) secret.

They did. They're loaded pretty hot, and have a tendency to hangfire. If you pull the trigger and it doesn't go off, MAINTAIN STANCE (stock snugged in, sight picture, etc.) for at least 10 seconds.

hahahhaha WTF the ejection port's on the left :mad:

You could always just get some sandpaper and round off that outside corner, you know. I was worried that I would have to, but it was fine when I got mine. :)

Oh come on, on a shotgun, you're not really going for "accuracy" in any normal sense anyway. The pattern's going to be bigger than the front sight post/blade at any distance.

Oh. I'll check when I get back to my apt, then. (At the parents' for Giftmas.) Thanks for the heads up. :)

Your sister. In the face. With my hot load.

More ammo is never a bad thing. Besides, at close enough ranges, it's not terribly difficult to miss with a shotgun; check out the patterns on that target, at ten yards it's only going to be about half the width of a man's chest. (At least on my particular 590.)
