Fired it at the range alongside the Glock 43X and 48. I liked the Macro the best. Smooth action. The compensator built into the slide is nice. Grip size is absolutely perfect for a mid-large hand owing to the semi-double stack. Trigger is smooth with a very consistent break, while a bit heavy, but that's expected out of a conceal carry pistol. The price, however, was not ideal ($850 before tax at the time), which led me to get the G48 for nearly half that price. The Macro is definitely high on the wish list.

So you honestly believe that if someone with Lebron James skill and body type were to start hormone therapy, post puberty, and then displayed the same hormone levels as a women, he could be allowed to compete with women and that would be fair? You're willing to ignore the massive muscular build that occurs during puberty, the kinematic differences (specifically in the hips and shoulders) that allow a male frame to generate higher force levels, and the significant aggressiveness that is innate to the human male brain that onsets during puberty? None of those things, which are permanent and scientifically proven changes to male anatomy, factor into your understanding? This isn't about trans hate. This is about lack of acknowledging facts. Beyond that, jumping from "that's not fair" to "you're a trans hater" is completely disingenuous. Turn off CNN and go go listen to people that disagree with you with the intent to learn, not respond.

It's significant. Thankfully we never have, but that's 100% because we opt to do our fighting on the other sides of the ponds. As a graduate of the Army's airspace control course...this is entirely accurate. They understand joint airspace so well that they assume they'll get a coord altitude up the flight levels during a near peer conflict so they won't have to decon counterbattery fire with the USAF. It's so far beyond laughable as to make one cry tears of grief for both the blue air they're going to shoot down, and the ground troops who won't get the air support they'll need.

That's my hometown. EGR is decidedly not representative of the GRR writ large. They actively police up and relocate the homeless to downtown because that's where the shelters are. Heaven forbid the old money get exposed to the unwashed masses. I will agree that GRR is pretty will run, but the secret is that moderate stance...but they also do an excellent job of hiding the rot...and there is a LOT of rot in GRR.

Commanders are dropping like flies this year

Was there when he actively refused to do a defensive maneuver on his checkride because...expendables...and subsequently attempted to restrict all LRF ops to 30 degrees AoB. Good thing he only topped out at GO. -
Be sure to drop that one on the squadron WO when you show up. It turns out that experience is rather important when it comes to creating a well thought-out opinion on various subjects. You can think whatever you want about a subway event where none of us were present. You're welcome to completely ignore the fact that some dudes on this board have significant real world experience and have had to make lethal-force decisions in real time, and might actually have some insight to the injustice and horrible long term social implications of this subway case. That aside, jumping directly to "old people's opinions don't matter" is another thing, and only serves to display your youth, arrogance and ignorance. Rule number one: Never pass up the opportunity to keep your mouth shut. Good luck out there kid.

Seriously. Robert Heinlein was right. Not say'in I'm just sayin': I'm down for the "I fought to defend it, so I'll fight to rebuild it" portion of the country.

Stop it

Not anymore. He's clearly graduated. Why do you think he was silent so long. Execs aren't allowed on their own social media.

Then you did it right. Well done sir

You get inside Lubyanka, and you wear a paisley tie? What is this? 1993?

You're really @ClearedHot's alternate login, right?

No. No you definitely should. Please. Yes, please definitely do that.

For the love of Olds can I get a so to speak?!

Dude, I'm so glad you're back!

Yup. I just got a G48 and I'm a fan so far. The only thing I like about the SIG 365 is how the semi-double stack makes it fit in my hand a little better.

Ok. Can we admit that this is an exchanging of fire between two nitwits? Gaetz is an inept political tactician that leans on emotional support that he doesn't really have and a wit that doesn't exist. No doubt that Dettelbach is also completely inept. Gaetz had a non-maneuvering target, 2x AIM-9X, and STILL trashed the shots.

Seriously. The democratic party can do WAY better. Please. For the love of our country. Do not put this guy back in charge for another 4 years. If you have half a brain, for the love of Pete, AT LEAST wait until there is a ticket before throwing your vote behind someone!
