when I visit my local pawn shops and out of town ones while on the road working I always ask if they have a box full of used holsters and if so I dig through them.
I bought these 2 for $25 the single clip is a Blackhawk made for a XD the Dual clip is a Winthrop actually made for the P07/P09 new the Blackhawk is around $45 the Winthrop is somewhere in the $60 neighborhood

Thanks for your source. I didn't read much as I really do have other things to do today, tomorrow and the rest of the weekend. But, based on past usage and acceptance of that usage by Congress and the courts (has anything ever come to the courts on this yet? And no, I don't plan on checking that out either,) an "emergency" seems to cover a multitude of conditions, often having little to do with the standard dictionary understanding of emergency. "

A simplification perhaps but generally true. Of course I think the Trump haters should quit worrying about it because Trump will probably be a victim of Robert's skullduggery eventually. Here is the law that I believe Trump will eventually rely on to invoke the national emergency.

"The second would apply if a president were to declare a national emergency “that requires or may require the use of the armed forces.” If that were to happen, the defense secretary would be empowered to “(1) terminate or defer the construction, operation, maintenance, or repair of any Department of the Army civil works project that he deems not essential to the national defense, and (2) apply the resources of the Department of the Army’s civil works program, including funds, personnel, and equipment, to construct or assist in the construction, operation, maintenance, and repair of authorized civil works, military construction, and civil defense projects that are essential to the national defense.”

You do realize Trump and friends have passed more gun regulation in 2 yrs than O and cronies did in 8? And Trump still openly calling for more.

I voted for the guy. And hes done some good stuff. He's also done some bad stuff especially to the RTKABA. Please stop holding him up as defender of the RTKABA. He's demonstrably not.



Like I said I voted for him. But illegal immigration isn't anymore a national emergency than most of the other "national emergencies " still in force.

I don't care if he does declare a national emergency and it sticks.

And I know the dems and most Republicans in office want to obstruct every thing he does


My opinion is that Congress should not have passed a law in 06 that gave ANY President that ability. "

Of course it'a a straw man. Although I hope that she encourages a new Democratic president to try that, because I think it would signal the beginning of the end for the Democratic party. All I'm saying is that this will probably be tied up in court for a long time. Kind of sucks, but if a Democratic President tries a national emergency with the 2A, or climate change, I would expect Republican higher ups to take it to court, and the republican base questioning the legality of such a move, just like Dem's are now.

I'm sure they are a hoot! It is unfortunate that we do not have either the grass, the distance or the rifle shooters in our women's group.

Our ladies (middle age and older) are new enough to shooting that most of them can only handle shooting a .22 pistol from about 5 to 7 yards maximum SO FAR. They are making progress, though, and that's why we have this group. A couple have "graduated" to .380's. "P" (the head of the group) and I are proud of them. "

Yep. There are a lot of foods that fall into the category of "have to be done right", and Collards might top the list. It amazes me how different they can taste based on who is cooking them.

When I lived In Florida, there was a black man that sold Collards on the side of the road, like many sell boiled peanuts. The best ever!! I've never tasted anything close since, which sucks for me!! "

Blaming the targets is inappropriate, IMO.

The only time targets come into play is when you shoot them with airguns which they were not designed for.

I perfectly understand and acknowledge your statement and it is clear to me.

At no time or point did I blame the targets for anything. They are what they are.

MY PROBLEM with the targets is that nowhere on any on line page where they are for sale does it say that they must be used on a grassy surface, from 50 yards distance minimum. I checked 4 different on line vendors before actually ordering them and there was not one word about how and where they should be used.

If that information had been on even one of the web sites, I would not have ordered them because we do not have a grassy surface and the longest distance on our pistol ranges is 25 yards. The rifle range - that's another story, but our women's group is for pistols only at this point in time.

AND BTW: That information NOW actually is on the Amazon sales page for the one target - in my customer review of that item. "

Go through all the seasoning steps and add the seafood at the end....seafood cooks MUCH faster. Shrimp, crab, and oysters are my base-line minimum for a seafood gumbo. Scallops are good too! "

I disagree with Trump on a few issues. I voted for him for most of the promises he was going to do. And I am pleased with his handling of most immigration issues and how he has handled the economy. Please stop misrpresenting me about Trump. It gets, old But then again, you will persist LOL. So just do what your instincts has you do if it pleases you

I am unhappy with Trump because for me, the 2A is way more important than a peeing contest over a wall.

And when people say "open borders". That has different meanings to different people. I think a wall is unnecessary and there are other things we should do (which I will not bother reposting for the umpteethh time). For some an open border is one with minimal or no checks to cross. That I am opposed to. We need point of entry and we need to beef those up since that is where the majority of drugs come through.

For some like Beto and Ocasio, open borders means to let people freely cross, which I am opposed to. "

I already gave you my answer. Wording your post differently isn't going to make me say anything different. I do applaud your effort though

If I do get the resources to do a scientific poll and check on peoples views 12 months ago and wht thier views are now, I will back with ya "

Pelosi threatens to use the same method to do away with the 2nd Amendment and people on a pro gun forum are blaming DT and by extension supporting the Democrats in their quest.

I must be living through a "real" Mandela Effect. It is the only explanation.

ETA: They call it a cold spot in the video------I just put it down as a cold day in hell.

Well dude, if he declared a National Emergency on Day 1 of his Presidency, we would have a great beautiful wall built by now and less evil would be entering the country. Would you agree that if he did do this on Day one that by now the flow in illegls would have subsided and less people would have been killed by all of these illegals and the flow of drugs would have diminished..by now?

Why did he waste 2 years if he thought it was an emergecy? That is what I can't figure out. Unless...................there was no emergency. "

One of my neighbors said Trump was trying to do the right thing by working with Congress. I told him hogwash. Emergency or no emergency. No emergency issues you work with Congress. Emergencies you deal with as a POTUS.

This really is a Black and White issue. No grey area.

I think it is funny that Trump probably spent less time to declare a National Emergency for placing certain sanctions against current and former Daniel Ortega government officials engaging in "human rights abuse or corruption than he did for declaring a National Emergency that threaten the US.

Your thoughts on that last sentence as well as everything else?

Once the illegals enter the country they fan out across the United States and become the problem for every city they go to. Some cities in Virginia have a terrible problem with the violent gang, MS 13, the majority of those members are illegally in the country. It's all our problem, not just yours down in the suburbs of San Antonio.

an illegal invasion
And I will pre-emptive here: He did not expect Congress to go along with a bill financing a wall. So, he is playing politics like every other POTUS. Trump ain't no different than Obama or Clinton or Bush or FDR or Reagan. He just does the same crap to get stuff done he want and you and othe "folks" agree with it.

That is fine. I recognize that. I do not see how others do not.

Hold on a Second? SatCong has his own President? Is his President not my President? How has his President failed him when My President is doing his best to look out for my best interest?
SatCong better get with the program and use My President because apparently My President is doing a better Job than His President,,, Shame on SatCong for having a different Presidennt than the rest of us have! "

You get her gassed up, similar to what you do to yourself, you may need a buffer and spring as the 5.56 stuff may not be ideal. But then if the port is just right, it may be fine.

The caliber is a 6mm wildcat, adapted from the .223 case. Its powder capacity is about a grain more than a .223 case. I don't think there's an issue with the buffer. It's worked well with either .223 or 5.56 loads. Unfortunately, as a wildcat, there is no "published" load data. It's a lot of going with what others have used and "working up. "

I've had the Goose out to the range a couple times now. The first trip was primarily to fireform cases with lighter loads I was forewarned may not cycle the action. They didn't.

For the second trip, I loaded some "working" loads as well as some more fireforming loads with boosted powder loads. Still none of the fire-forming loads cycled--either not ejecting the empty case or not picking up the next round when it did eject. To make matter worse, none of the working loads cycled either. Halfway through the session, I gave up in frustration. All this happened with three different magazines. It is, IMO, short-stroking.

Chambering was fine when it fed by hand. I'm using my 5.56 Armalite lower and BCG that work 100% with the .5.56 upper. Shouldn't be an issue there.

I emailed the fellow who made produced the barrel, told him what it was doing, and asked for suggestion. He said my fireforming loads are still too light, but the working loads should have cycled. He asked a few questions and made a few suggestion. Everything checked out. He then asked me to measure the gas port size.

I dug through drill bits and whatnot, looking for something to measure the hole. I informed him a pin punch measuring .089 wanted to enter the port but would not. He said it seemed undersized slightly (He doesn't make the gas ports, only reams the chamber and cuts/threads the blanks), and for a 22" rifle-length barrel, it need to be .091-.093. He said to try a 3/16 (.093) drill bit to enlarge the hole. My research into AR gas port sizes seemed to agree.

He also said if that didn't resolve the issue to ship the upper to him and he'd get it working at no charge. He also emailed some loads for my bullets his ballistics program spit out, which are close to what I have loaded.

I'm hoping to get back to the range either Monday or Thursday to see if this resolves the issue. Fingers crossed.

Good luck. "
