I suspect this was just a battle won and the war is far from ending regarding braces. Got two morons about to get into office next month.

The hypocrisy is simply amazing.

Ive had to jump through flaming hoops for decades while watching millions get spent on inspections and code compliance to meet ADA yet no one in the gubment cares about the rights of disabled Americans trying to defend themselves.

I'm amazed the gubment doesn't mandate ADA specs for firearms like they do everything else from counter height to door handle design. They are doing the exact opposite as they do in every other industry. Again just shows their true colors and hate for this country's constitutional rights.

OMG she went to Trijicon! New RMR RM09 for my hunting rifle. Arisaka offset mount is in the mail for this.

I swapped out this small hand stop to a bigger one. This little one would only fit on my old SLR handguard but now that I'm running a BCM handguard with better slot placement on the rail, I can run other hand stops. This is a Troy handstop. Doggo approved.

I got my RMR mounted on an Arisaka offset mount on my hunting upper. I could've used this the other day when I was running after a sounder in the woods... I went with the RMR here because I'm used to them (I own two other RMR's) and I know they can take a beating.

I modified this Caldwell "QD" plate and mounted it on an American Defense QD mount I had lying around. I really don't like Caldwell's "QD" system they have because you have to keep a $15 part on each upper all the time. Not really what "Quick Disconnect" means to me.
I mainly got this for .22LR, .223 and .300BO rounds as I shoot those the most.

I got to do the Georgia Police 30 round Semi-Auto Qualification course last week. Scored a 91% (70% required to pass). Only ones I missed were at 25 yards with my Shield40 and I know I could have done better. It was the first "round" of shooting I've ever done timed. So I didn't take the few moments to steady before pulling the trigger on those. I expect to do better the next time around.

That said, the course was incredibly easy. It did not give me much confidence in LEOs here if that is all they have to do to qualify. Considering I haven't shot anything that I own in 2+ years, I expected to do worse.

Yeah I shot next to the Houston police department when some of their officers were qualifying and their shot groups were terrifying. It boiled down to as long as they hit the torso, they qualified. But if I was in a hostage situation, I have zero faith they'd nail the bad guy.

Yeah, when me and @tex did our concealed class, the shooting instructor was an office. He was the one in charge of qualifying other cops each year. He said that the majority of cops were terrible shots and that nearly everyone in our class outshot most of the cops he has ever tested. Pretty disappointing that they're not held to any sort of standards aside from just "if the bullet hits something, anything, when you pull the trigger, you're good"

Yep. Same for GA. Hit the target in a general area and qualify. I wanted to go for headshots just because it was a smaller target, but figured I wanted to "qualify" moreso than I wanted to show off.

Their system is set up to fail. On average US LEO's only go to the range twice for less than 15hrs total training per year.

Now I haven't shot a firearm in prob two years and I know paintball is not even close to the same, but in my mind Ive got more time training hand eye coordination and determining between friends/foes than they do per year and to me that should be criminal to offer them so little training.

Back in the day I estimated/PM'd the new buildings for Philly's SWAT/Bomb/K9/Training Range a few years ago. if we put as much money into the people as we put into the architecture of their buildings we would all be better off. I know I'd rather be in a modest building and get superior training vs be housed in some mansion and I'm clueless as to how to clear a room properly.

Yep, my buddy constantly puts in for training and it's always denied because of budget and scheduling constraints. I think he's been waiting 2 years at this point to go complete the SWAT course. He said once he can go get the training, that he's going to borrow my AR for the training since it's higher quality than the ones they get issues lol

the dogs had low iron glass.....seriously. not one kennel had clear 'normal' glass.

I could of saved taxpayers tens of thousands just in that kennel building and prob 200k+ in the others.

On the other hand thats the one thing I always liked about construction. the amount of 'trickle down economics' AKA graft will always keep it as a top profession. NJ doesn't spend 20 million per mile on road maintenance, but thats what it costs and our roads are horrible
