Does anyone know if a naturalized citizen is able to obtain a NYS pistol permit?
I've been talking with a few guys in the Madison/Oneida county areas that have had their wives (naturalized citizens) get denied pistol permits. My county pistol clerk has also said that a large number of been denied and she can't actually think of any that have gone through.
I just recently learned about the Revolver Ammunition Strip Concealment clip by NeoMag, which they call the RASC. I saw one in a photo on reddit and figured I would give it a try, hoping that it would offer a solution than having to dig the speedstrip out from the contents of my pocket.
I carry a 649 in the strong side pocket, and carry various items in the weak side pocket. The RASC is basically a clasp that grabs onto a speedstrip and provides a pocket clip so that it can be hooked onto a pocket like any modern knife.
Thirty bucks and a week later I had a package from NeoMag, including the RASC, a hex wr
An article in the backwoodsman magazine tipped me off to elderberry syrup and the cold/flu fighting benefits of it. Here is a receipt:

I have a lot of elderberry growing on my land so I decided to give it a try this year. Normally I'm too busy during their ripe season to make jelly out of them so they usually go to waste, but this seems like it will go a lot faster.
Does anyone know if there is a diagnostic manual for pathophysiology?
I can find tons of "ALS pocket guides" but thats not what I am looking for, I am looking for a guide with s/s of different diseases. For example the s/s of acute and chronic renal failure and each of the stages. RSV vs Croup, etc etc...
More than likely I am just going to get a notepad and go through an ALS book and write my own, but if something like that already exists then I could save myself the trouble.
Dozer is a stubborn and lovable little guy who blew his ACL and now 4 months post op is still limping/favoring the leg.
Species: American pitbull terrier
Age: 5
Sex/Neuter status: Male/Neutered
Breed: apbt
Body weight: 70lbs
History: Ruptured Right rear ACL (8/17), Repaired (10/17), 12 wks bedrest through 1/18.
At the final post op appointment, I expressed that Dozer was still favoring the leg, the surgeon said that everything felt solid and put him on 1 month of light walks for physical therapy (2/18).
Clinical signs: Pelvic rotation away from affected side, will only toe-touch with affected leg when standing still. Will walk fine but after 20 minutes
Last year I did OCR/mudrun in the early spring. The weather was perfect for running, not too hot, not too cold. For the first half of the race the water almost felt refreshing.
Then I ran out of body heat about 3/4 of the way through. I was shivering, and the water became torture. I've always been that way though, I can't conserve body heat for very long.
So this year, I would like to invest in some better gear to keep myself warmer towards the last portion of the run. From what I have read underarmor cold gear is pretty highly recommended. Are there any other brands to check out?
This shouldn't be fucking hard, but apparently it is.
I'm trying to find a decent online retailer that will ship a glock 19x to NY state, without the mags.
I did the same thing when I bought my 17L. I emailed the seller and told them " Hi, I want that 17L, but I can't have the mags, I will pay the full listing price and you ship me the gun, but you get to keep the mags. I don't care if you resell them or put them in your own pocket, I just cant have them"
You'd think this would be a great sale, get full price for the gun and get to turn around and sell the factory FDE mags at a premium.
But somehow when it comes to the 19x, I am either running into " glock 19x sales are in store only"
I'm starting to think about picking up a 19x, but I use the NY-1 trigger spring in my other glocks because as a revolver guy, I like the heavier pull.
I've seen the new gen 5 internals, and I am betting that most people will be focusing on reducing the pull weight, not making it heavier. So I am wondering if anyone is making a heavier weight trigger springs out there for those states like MA, or LEs that are required to have it (or people like me that want it).
Yes its not a glock, but as someone with a ton of glock mags on hand, this is huge news to me. =)
And I figured that there might be others out there like me, so I wanted to spread the word.
The new ruger PCC.

I've always wanted a 9mm glock mag carbine for easy/cheap fun, but I live in a ban state so 9mm ARs are out (and even if they weren't they are crazy expensive).
But this new option from ruger is looking very reasonable for a fun gun (MSRP 650 and some sites are preordering at 520ish). Plus its ban state friendly! So I am super excited! =)
I posted a few weeks ago about trying deal with brass to the face on my gen 3s. While many people jumped in with the limp wristing, others commented on similar issues with their guns. If you go through the stickies on Glock talk it is a known issue with the later gen 3s, and some gen 4s.
Anyways, I had tried the gen4 ejector first, but this was not solving the issue, cases often "dribbled" out of the action, going left or rear of the gun and landing at my feet. Sometimes directly at my face, and these are the most worrisome as it presents an actual risk.
So I decided to try the Apex extractor, I got the model without the loaded chamber indicator. Installation was simple, and I can say now
Has anyone found a good solution to the brass in the face problem?
I had read that swapping out the pointed gen 3 ejector for the flat nosed gen 4 would help with the problem. It didn't seem to help in my case (g26 and g17L both doing it).
edit This is one of the sites that suggests ejector issue with the 3rd gen. http://greyarsenal.com/glock-19-gen-3-erratic-ejection-aka-brass-to-face/
There are plenty of threads on glock talk about it, with some people trying different extractors, but I haven't gone down that road yet.
I had to respring my new G17L due to FTE/FTFs with my reloads. I am aware that the reloads are causing issues with the stock spring weights because it happened in my G26 as well.
So I ordered a new guide rod and 16lb recoil spring from wolff springs. It also came with a new striker spring that I did not install.
At the same time my flat face apex trigger show came in so I tossed that in as well.
Testing it out today, things ran ok, but I noticed a curious effect that I have not encountered before.
When I fire a round, and hold the trigger to the rear, the slide stays slightly out of battery until I let the trigger out to the reset, at which time the slide pops completely forward.

I am looking into a marathon GPQ either tritium or maraglo, but for me the biggest concern is that I need the second hand to light up in the dark, as a first responder this is a big deal for me.
I also like the Nite MX-10, but I've read about the second hands bending over time due to the weight of the vial.
Is there any way to turn a DA/SA HK into a DAO (double action only)? I am not talking about trying to make it function like the LEM trigger, but what I am looking for is a true DAO, long heavy pull, every time.
Background: I've been shooting revolvers for 23 years, so I prefer my semi-auto triggers to feel as close to a double action wheel gun as possible. I'm the kind of guy that willfully added the NY-1 trigger spring to his glock and ended up with smaller groups because of it.
Now I have a p30sk on my wish list and I am wondering if it can be modi-fucked into a trigger that I like.
