… and gat is slang for a pistol, I have no idea why they call it that but it originated from “Gatlin gun”, even though most pistols are not full auto.
I can tell you’re out of touch just by using the phrase “auto loader”… no such thing. Maybe you meant semi auto?Huh. Never heard of it.
Then again, I stopped paying attention around ‘03. Revolvers were more my thing; no brass loss issues at the range, and they shot an amazing range of loads that would give an autoloader indigestion.
Autoloader is a real and useful word; it refers to a semiautomatic firearm. I learned it from Dean Grenell, whose authority in these matters I do not question.I can tell you’re out of touch just by using the phrase “auto loader”… no such thing. Maybe you meant semi auto?
a startlingly narrow-minded assessment.Wheel guns are cool in thier own way, but low capacity and bulk make them undesirable.
That was an attempted carjack in Shreveport. Dude was so nervous. Just a kid. He was looking around I suppose to see if anyone was looking and I pulled the m&p off the magnet under the steering wheel, both hands, elbows up aiming through the glass right between his eyes. When he got focused back on me he put both hands on his weapon for like a millisecond and took off. Dude everyone thinks they know how they would react to this or that under pressure. The truth is noone has any clue what they would do in a shark attack until a shark attacks right how can they.I’m not a killer either, but if someone had a gat in my face… I’d smoke em’ I know some of you big town people don’t have experience with handling guns on a daily basis, but rest assured, if you’re in a grocery store, or restaurant, 8 out of 10 are packin’ I think this is why our gun violence is lower than most. We can open carry, but nobody does. This keeps the mystery open to would be criminals. They have an 80% chance of dying.

I did. Kudos for the Wikipedia quick reference.You didn’t.
It's essentially a Kel-tec pt11. Ex employee started sccy on that model. Its a double action only internal hammer fired semi auto 9mm with 10+1 capacity. Super safe gun but really hard to get any accuracy.Huh. Never heard of it.

I’ve never drawn down like that. We were taught that if you pull it, you better dump it. (Empty the clip).. closest I came was this past summer. Some dude high on meth or something was jacking his jaw at me, calling me every white person name in the book… I stayed calm, and held my Glock against the door of the car till my wife got back in at a convenience store. She had to piss on a road trip, and this all happened after she went it. Dude was lucky he didn’t do something stupid.That was an attempted carjack in Shreveport. Dude was so nervous. Just a kid.

8/10 sane rational law abiding citizens carrying concealed in public vs one nutter dude I like those odds.
Have you seen the new Sig P365?… super compact, accurate, and will eat anything you feed it. Worth the $$$It's essentially a Kel-tec pt11. Ex employee started sccy on that model.

Best warranty in the business. No questions asked repairs or parts for the life of the gun, any amount of owners. They will even replace the gun for free if it's stolen if you provide a police report.
It's a bitch to shoot at the range because of the heavy trigger and loooooong reset which is also the source of inaccuracy.
Pretty good sub$200 gun. Way better than a hi point but not near as good as a taurus g series.

I'm going to have to agree with you here. I have used a naa 22 mag defensively twice. It could have been unloaded and had the same effect. The 22 mag from the little 1 5/8" barrel is actually ballistically inferior to a 22lr from the same firearm. 5 shot capacity and the firing blade rests between the cylinder bores similarly as the old cap and ball revolvers that were true 6 shooters because of this feature.Autoloader is a real and useful word; it refers to a semiautomatic firearm.

I've heard good things and read a lot about them. My favorite design has always been a hi-power. I have several and several variants. CZ rami is what I carry and shoot most but my favorite is a rather affordable Bersa TPR. That's the only gun I've ever owned that literally says carry condition 1 in the owners manual. Argentina gives no fucks.Have you seen the new Sig P365?… super compact, accurate, and will eat anything you feed it. Worth the $$$
I always reload the rimmed brass too. The auto brass I still pack but it gets sent back for credit on reman ammo.Huh. Never heard of it.

I either carry the P365, or Glock 43… both nice and compact carry. I have no idea how many weapons I have , but these are my faves. I got a G42 (.45) that’s on a magnet under the counter…. Too damn heavy to carry, and hella expensive to practice shoot, even with ball ammo. I have all handguns loaded with Critical Defense rounds... even if you miss the double tap… they going down.I've heard good things and read a lot about them.

Your talking to a bear though, really a revolver is all that will do. I hear 10mm is pretty close though.Wheel guns are cool in thier own way, but low capacity and bulk make them undesirable.
Funny story.. I got a good friend who is a CCW instructor.. he was plinking around after a class and was hitting a 10” plate at 100y. This student says “well, you’ve shot that same gun, so you know it”… he grabs the students weapon and pops that plate at 100y, and said “start running your gun, and not your mouth”. He now works for Nighthawk Custom firearms. He brought out a 1911 NightHawk. Holy shit. The slide was smooth as butter. 2.7 lb trigger pull.Your talking to a bear though, really a revolver is all that will do. I hear 10mm is pretty close though.
Never seen meth heads until I got to California. I found them mostly harmless and unable to control their muscles and mouths. I'm used to mouth though so I take it with a huge grain of salt.I’ve never drawn down like that. We were taught that if you pull it, you better dump it.
