I have a blue million of federal once fired brass. All fired in beretta 92's. Would it be good brass to load 9mm major? I have old Gold Team EAA I want to try it in.

It is just the good ole divide and conquer mentality. HG bad- SG good

I was working out happily today at the gym when I see a local female skeet champion. I wave and she walks over. We chat for a moment and I tell her I am getting my new 357/44 ready for the handgun-hunting season. She turns up her nose and says "We don't have handguns in our home, you know statistics prove that if you have a handgun in your home, you are more likely to get killed with it." I was so absolutely floored; I did not know exactly what to say. I simply told her that there is no statistic that proves her theory, and went back to my work out. It is bad enough that the Handgun Control cool aide drinkers tell us handguns are bad, but what the FORK, a skeet shooter talking that nonsense I guess she thinks that 12 O/U won't kill you as bad

Now don't just think that this only happens on public ranges. I was instructing a class on the local POLICE ONLY range at the 25 yard line and suddenly heard the report of a .308. I immediately stopped the firing line, moved my class of 25 students. I turned to see what a--hole had fired the shot and noticed two designated SWAT snipers firing behind the class on at the 200 yard line. I called the range master who came over and told the two brainwaves to move. The range master said the two guys didn't realize that we had the range reserved and thought they were far enough over to the right, so it was okay.

Atilla, This guy failed the Q course and was sent to his normal duty station as a combat signaler. His entire career only lasted less than 4 years. I have confirmed the information through several channels, so I know it is true. Thanks for all your help gents. I have a game plan , which is to send this person his offical military record and strongly suggest that he take he false creds off the net.

I believe if you look under the U.S. Govt. DOJ site under the Freedom of Information Act you will be able to find out if your FBI agent is a FBfraud

Guys this is the link to Military records www.archives.gov/facilities/mo/st_louis/military_personnel_records/general_public.html

Anyone can get the records. I will post the address later. I don't have it in my office. The request comes under the Freedom of information Act and you have to send a letter requesting the record. A dd214 can only be obtained the person who served or their family. However everything else is public.

Thanks guys. I confirmed the information through the U.S. Army official records division. I think I am just gonna to carry the official records around in my shooting bag and if by chance I run into this wing nut again, I will simply hand them to him. The other funny thing was that he said he attended sniper school. The records state he only obtained a sharp shooter ribbon. You guys on the west coast may run into him.

I came across this guy at a major match one day, who said he was a Army Ranger, that served in combat. I being interested in Tactics asked him about the subject. He responded with insults and a good amount of chest poundings. This struck me as very odd. So I checked through proper channels and found him to be an utter fraud, and was none of the things he said, having a very short vanilla military career were true.This further bothered me because he now has a website as an instructor. What is a good christian boy to do?

Well lets see. One gun that ain't fair. In an auto hands down a 1911 with all the bells from Bruce Gray or Claudio at Briley. Either one would last a life time and would be a beautiful blaster. In a revolver a 6" model 29 S&W with a Shilen barrel from Frank Glenn or any S&W that Frank builds. A shotgun of course a 870 3" from Wilson with the ghost rings and Briley chokes. A rifle 308 an FN/FAL from Accuracy Speaks with Leoupold glass and a bi pod. Damn I just realized, I could not get by with just one gun. Sorry

Dig Dave I don't understand his response either

Okay, Okay, all I wanted to know was does anyone know someone who has passed as a combat master. I did not wish to receive a testosterone-laced diatribe about the Warriors and Gamesman in IPSC. What kind of Warrior are you, a solider, policeman, fireman, lawyer, NFL quarterback or did you simply finish first in your Wing Chun class. We should extremely careful on how we throw around the Warrior label around. Real Warriors are in Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, any police or fire department that on a daily basis fight the bad guys of the world and minister to the sick or injured. Some of us carry a firearm everyday professional, but we are not Warriors we are pistol shooters that enjoy our sport and search for knowledge to help us use those shooting skills if needed. I have trained for the last 27 years in several types of pistol competition to prepare myself in the event that I will have to protect a loved one or myself. All of the disciplines helped round my skill. I wish this us versus them bulls__t would end. All disciplines round your skill and none are perfect.
