The Official 2nd Amendment Appreciation Thread

Thanks. Saw that as well by the dinglebock, but doubt what he said has any legal standing.

So if SCOTUS allows it to stand, then what? If not registered, is one a felon?

You’ll still be good if you take the brace off and “destroy” it. It should be taken into consideration what he said and the fact they’ve flip flopped so many times. Now you have 40 million people with these items which undoubtedly should be considered “common use”.
 
After several months of horse trading, I've finally settled my handgun inventory. Still have the Glock 30S, which is my every day IWB companion. But being a non-repentant 1911 fan, I've managed to land a Springfield .45 Range Officer compact; a Springfield .45 Loaded (PX9109L); and a Springfield .45 Range Officer. All three have been discontinued, and for the life of me I cannot figure out why. I have shot a lot of 1911 .45's over the years, and I'll stack any one of those Springfields against anything Colt, Kimber, or anyone south of Dan Wesson or Wilson Combat is turning out. Every one of those .45's is accurate beyond my skill level, reliable, and absolutely fun to shoot.

Nothing against any of the well-established 1911 builders. It's a timeless design, and if you stick to the design, you'll turn out a good gun. And to each their own, but having shot most of the more common brands, there's just something about the crossed cannons that stands out. 2nd place goes to Rock Island. If their slide to frame fit was just a tad better, they'd be in the same conversation.

Lord, just wait 'till my can (SOCOM 556-RC2) gets out of jail in the next few months. Gonna mount my thermal sight to the SBR; add the can; and then go "Whisper Kill" some Hot Hands targets at sunset. Well, more like a soft pop than a whisper, but there's only so much you can do with a 2300 fps round (TAP 75 SBR). Anyhoo, it's a 9.8 on the Internet Commando Meter.

How cool am I? Chuck Norris reads my posts.

p.s. - I retired in March, so now I question everything. Got a warrant? No? Then we're done here, and I don't answer questions.

Go Vols.
 
Anyone have the Hornady Hot Tub ultrasonic cleaner? It’s expensive, but will hold a 16” AR upper. I’m interested in it, but $700 is stiff for a cleaner.
 
Got out my Dad’s old Winchester Model 74 this weekend. The sites are off, but aim at the same spot and it shoots a noticeably tighter pattern than my Ruger 10-22.

Neat old gun. It was what Dad carried in his truck and I did not get to shoot it much when I was a teenager. It is in great shape.
 
Not sure if this is real... but kinda cool
