    Its kinda sad to hear that about Kimber. don't have thousands thru mine, but it has always been stone reliable in the 15 years or so that I've owned it.

    Oh good, the tactical ninja derp fight has finally gone to quoting navy seals...that was the only thing missing. It's like a political catfight without a Nazi reference...it always gets there eventually.

    15 years means you've got one of the good ones from what I've seen.

    Well there it is. I stand corrected. I have heard him say jiu jitsu, but since you know Jocko well, you know that his answer to every question is jiu jitsu. :D

    Thanks for all the input. I've decided to throw him a gift card instead. A friend of mine owns a great gun store, so I'll just let him pick his poison.

    Most of the guns I have are for CC. I have the Kimber Ultra Carry II, love it. It's a 45 two tone, bought it new, it's a very smooth shooting gun and haven't had any problems with it.

    Stopped by Buds to bitch about my, bought new from Buds, S&W 38+p. It's a pos J frame that no one can shoot and it's laser won't stay put. While I was there, Springfield was letting people shoot what ever they had on the table, providing 5 rounds and T shirt. I shot the 45 1911 and the 45 XDs. They had a special going on: 45 XDs, a hard shell holster, 6 mags, a double mag carrier and a bag to carry it all in for ~ $425....I now have the 45 XDs. It's not going to win a beauty contest, but it is accurate and has replaced my Glock for primary carry.

    It is too bad if Kimber has let success give them a bad attitude.

    Steeltoe What's my move?

    I'd take his advice over yours but truth is I made my mind up a long time ago. ;)

    Haha no doubt at least every other podcast. Him and Joe Rogan. I don't doubt it at all either. I guess we're not allowed to quote someone with actual experience though. :rolleyes:

    LOL, I never gave any advice and won't. No offense but I don't care what anyone else's defense plan is. I don't derp fight dude.

    I dunno what a derp is. Metalhead? Dave K and his penny loafers?

    I like my XDs 45, I had a couple FTE's when it was brand new but it's been flawless since then. My hand did get a bit sore shooting for a CCW class after about 150 rounds.

    I've stated before I prefer the classic styles. Opinions on the Beretta 92fs vs CZ75? I've read a few opinions and the Beretta comes ahead slightly. I'm looking to get one of the two.

    Personal preference. Just depends on your use. CZ if gaming is even a remote possibility.

    Cousin Bob is coming to stay with us for a bit. Bob's a 100% disabled combat vet. He gets awesome discounts from gun part vendors for the most part. We're going to build up a few rifles for long range shooting. He likes .308 but I'm thinking 6.5 Creedmoor. Thinking Surgeon or Defiant actions with Shillen or Bartlein barrels. Not sure about stocks or chassis system. Got any experience with either of those? He likes the M40A5 but we're also thinking using a chassis system, probably AICS. He likes Nightforce but I like Schmidt. First world problems. Build time subject to parts availability yada yada yada.

    Oh, the CMP has a new 600 yard range with electronic scoring over in Talladega. And lots of pistol / shotgun ranges as well. Open to the public. http://thecmp.org/competitions/talladega-marksmanship-park/

    Larue just announced a run of 6.5 Grendel rifles today via fbook. Sale goes live tomorrow morning 9am Central. I imagine they'll all be gone in a minute or less.
