So, I've heard stories in the past for major incidents such as Hurricane Katrina where the State of Emergency basically voids some civil rights. Not sure if that's the case all the time, can anyone explain what is entailed when a Governor declares 'state of emergency'? Not really concerned for...

Hey guys, We're considering adding an FFL to our existing business at our existing office. We're thinking of starting off doing transfers, but have also toyed with the idea being a stocking dealer as well. So, I wanted to see what the response was like in this thread about purchasing online or...

Thank you for clarification, now I feel like an idiot for sending a request to my rep to deny...will unwillingly correct myself :( lol

According to this forum http://www.migunowners.org/forum/showthread.php?t=80072 a SR9 holster will work, but will leave wear marks on the trigger guard. Price is $43 shipped from my end as I do not stock this item. Here is one on Ebay that is cheaper Link Removed

You study the penal code, eh? I'll leave that alone. Each state has their own statutes and procedures. Its not wise to make such generalizations. If a teenager throws a 70 year old man who uses a walking device (cane, etc) to the ground and continues the attack is this not potentially deadly for...

PLEASE ADD YOUR OWN REVIEWS TO THIS THREAD! Would like a rolling tally on opinions on classic holsters and new manufacturers/products. Hey Guys, I was going through my holster drawer and decided that I'd do some reviews, and maybe save some people some money. Keep in mind that this is the...

Looks like no ruling has been made, they're trying to have the trial judge removed from the case. If I were on the jury I'd likely find him guilty of 2nd degree murder, first is pushing it under the 'heat of the moment'... Link Removed

I'm all for people defending themselves, and not being charged. I am curious how this man was able to articulate he felt that grave bodily injury or death was immanent due to a punch in the face. Are FL's laws that strong? I don't know all the circumstances ages/size there could have been...

Going to Massad Ayoob Group class in March :pleasantry: very excited.

The title of this thread probably threw you off. I was trying to research people who have been convicted of murder or manslaughter where a reasonable claim of self defense has been asserted. We hear the horrors of using our weapon in self defense. Can anyone provide a link to a news article...

At least, that's the claim that this video makes...Of course, I think the video is biased, giving someone several hours of training and expecting them to respond favorably to an active shooter isn't exactly a scientific evaluation. No time was given to build physical muscle memory or more...

I looked for this, and couldn't imagine it wouldn't be on the first page of each forum so here it is: sorry if its a duplicate. Link Removed This guy did a service to all of us by keeping a very level, and more importantly MODEST outlook. He easily could have gone the other way and said...

New gun control legislation in Congress unlikely – CNN Political Ticker - CNN.com Blogs Great read, and somewhat reassuring news.

SG808, You have a unique situation that requires thoughtful preparation. Where there have been threats you are at an elevated risk compared to many others. When there are threats, especially those involving masked men chasing you, I think its time to fast track. Here is a great resource for...

I concede on the "one punch" killing joke. Apparently it is more preveleant than I thought. I guess I have a different outlook, I deal with pissed off fools that want to fight every day.

Attn Mod: If this is in the wrong section please move it, didn't know where else to put it... I recently acquired a DPMS Sportical in 5.56/2.23 I'll be the first to admit I don't know much about rifles. I plan on taking an operators course soon. I know how to manipulate all the functions of...

For conversational purposes only: Assume you live in a state which says something along the lines of "assailed person need not retreat he(or she) may stand his (or her) ground and defend him(her)self" How literally do you take that? I live in a state which says I have NO duty to retreat...

So over the last several years there has been a ton of talk regarding 'modified' or otherwise 'non-stock' additions to primary defense weapons. I'm curious if ANYONE can provide case reference as to when this has ever been brought up in criminal/civil trials. The 'urban legend' goes: If you...

While providing security at a rap concert in a town other than where I reside the night was going well. Considering the type of venue, the alcohol etc. we didn’t have many problems. That changed about 1:40am when a fight between two males broke out. I deployed OC spray and was able to pry them...

So, sometimes when reloading from slide lock IE: I just fired and emptied one magazine, I go to reload and sometimes the slide goes forward on its own. I've been able to replicate this at home using dummy ammo but only if I really hit the magazine hard. I know some firearms were designed to do...
