  1. Speed, you must have a great Security Clearance to know what we have and don't have?, but interesting all the same!:music_whistling: Cheers all!! I sure the truth would not be posted here!!!!
  2. Pushing three with that GPU will be harder, but See my Sig for my set up!!! Dell ultra sharps are good, 24, 27 or 31 inch for main View, but expensive compared to a TV!! Good Luck:thumbup:
  3. It does happen, right to to point..I agree Razor......and ty Ali.:thumbup:
  4. Speed. that was very well spoken!:thumbup:
  5. If we can photo the Mars landing, what do we see on earth???:music_whistling: I can only imagine!!! no place to hide now? It was not me peeing behind that tree!!!
  6. Amazing!!!! Now where is that Nascar driver when you need him?
  7. Well Said, I was misspoken!!!:thumbup: But hope they push for it as well!
  8. What goes up.Must come down!! Maybe a little easier???:helpsmilie::doh:
  9. Now, If DCS would support Crossfire, all would be so well!!!:thumbup:
  10. I say, to each their own, I have had both, but sig tells you what I use for my PC's:music_whistling:
  11. I must agree, but it all comes down to training, with the weapon you have! Faster, better, safer, that is all user!! Be safe all.:thumbup: Regardless of weapon choice, you need "Speed", Power" and "Ability to hit your target". With training most can have SPA. If the weapon has the Power! when testing the 9mm on a 10" 7 layer vest, the 9mm cut 3 layers of the vest and did not tear the front cover of the 5" phone book. the .45 cal in same test, did not even penetrate the first layer of the vest. but drove the vest 7" clear through the phone book. So where is the stopping power????
  12. I never said shoot to wound, I said shoot to stop!!!! Center Mass is best! when they look at your training, they Will ask why you didnt wound him, Well I did, just not in the leg. Their death is their own fault.:music_whistling: I was never trained to shoot in the leg either, But as a expert you should be able too, not so...You shoot as you are trained, not to kill them, but to stop them!
  13. It is kinda a play on words, but not really, if the threat is stopped move on, if not reengauge! It just gives you time, which you will need in close combat! also if you look at the Military side of things, It take many more soldiers and resorces to handle the wounded than it does the dead! Do what keeps you alive! Bottom line..In a court of law??? I shoot to stop, their fault they died!, I did not shoot to kill them, only stop them!:doh: and they do question your training!! 9 out of 10, I gonna drill them to Heaven and back! But only shot to stop them! Understand?
  14. I did, no worries, As you said, one must train for it..cheers:thumbup:
  15. I always know when I have a chambered round, why do you need the gun itself to tell you that? I not have time to feel for it!!:)
  16. no I am not! I 55 now and eyesight is worse, lol, I still have my Gold Cup, Personal use only, Military knew of my competing, but had to be army issue. they still have at least 4-5 really good 1911's I ported and polished.. I still have the trophys from Military too, Shooting their 1911's standard issue! Yeah, If it means anything I was an Expert in all weapons the Army let me play with! :thumbup: In my day, I was shooting about 1,000 rds every two weeks. expenpsive now to do that too! Well good memories at least. I still try to shoot at least 50 a month! But I am Retired now! also mush differernt shooting at a still target, verses the Combat shooting courses!,,, but the .45 is still my weapon of choice!! Be Safe!!
  17. true, if you ever got Hammer and Slide bite too, you doing it wrong, again, know your weapon. The Military would not let me carry my National Match Gold Cup, even though I kept it in the Armory!.LOL and if you do get a miss feed, How fast can you clear it. Training an knowing your weapon, I can't say enough!:thumbup: Cheers all!! G lock, now you talking shooting skills, not the function of the weapon itself!, cheers
  18. Again the User is the Safety. I competed wit a custom Gold Cup National match 1911, and I am left handed, so had Safeties on both sides. Not so lucky with Military version, But I had trained for it, so was not a problem. Right handed only!! As for careing for it, I knew a little emery cloth each time I cleaned it would make it more reliable! polish the feed ramp and mag well, better feeding, faster reloads, and remember to clean and oil your mags, most misfeeds are mag caused!:thumbup: Carried one concealed and on duty over 25 yrs, with no worries!!:music_whistling:Know you weapon, best I can Say!!! I would take a >45 over a 9mm any day. Old saying, 9mm has 14 rnds, and you need all of them, .45 cal, just one to knock them down, once down, they are less of a threat! Whatever you choose, Learn it well, and be safe!!
  19. I competed with the 1911 as a civilian and carried it in the Military, never let me down, and I would hate to be on the receiving end of it's knock down power!:music_whistling: Like any weapon, you have to know it, and care for it!! the 1911 can take a hell of alot of abuse! Safety is all user!!!! Any user Should know if you have a round in the chamber!! Period!!As well as how many left in the mag, before you move on to the next unknown!!
  20. So glad it is working for you!! It is a nice set up!:pilotfly:
