You know, that’s kinda how it really is. I knew there’d be a bunch of guys wagging their dicks on these threads, and yeah I posted them for entertainment.
But I did look over that front sight at another person. That’s not easy.
Now watch. we’re gonna get all the ‘You pussy- you shoulda shot him!’ posts

The fact that there are so many similar stories is actually quite depressing. I am getting old and can compare our culture 50 years ago with what we’re dealing with now. Who wouldn’t be depressed? Actually, I’ve long ago dealt with the various degrees of loss and have come out a realist. It is a good time in history to be old.

How could life be better?

He said one couldn’t get accessories, like a holster, for Rugers. I have the small LCR Ruger 38 revolver and have a Ruger holster for it. Maybe he doesn’t know how to use a computer and go to Ruger company for all things Ruger. Also have speed loaders made for my Ruger.

Birdman Weapons Systems had a compact Barret. It was some of the funnest gun spoof on the net. http://www.google.com/search?q=birdman+weapons+systems&hl=en&prmd=imvns&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=eZ1DULb1GrT8yAGnxYDYCA&sqi=2&ved=0CB4QsAQ&biw=1280&bih=670

Over penetration can be a bitch, though.

[real saxophonist]

I'm 47, I have Broncos cheerleaders, I have a now 22 year old girl (from the incident above) who gives me free hugs, I have threads on FreeRepublic exceeding 100 posts...

What could be better?

[gorush]

I'm 61...and only have memories. The older I get, the better I was.

[real saxophonist]

Anybody can say whatever they want to about caliber,expansion,muzzle energy and all. The 2 things that matter most are shot placement and penetration.The others are window dressing.

Well said. Thanks.

***This anti CZ75 guy is a moron.
It is the most widely carried pistol in the world.***

Beautiful pistol, unfortunately it is too big for my hand so I will stay with my Belgian Browning Hi-Power.

[Hardraade]

The 380, properly loaded, gets pretty glose to a 38spl ballistically. That means somewhat hot-loaded, not factory, and ofc you don’t get as heavy bullet.

There is, believe it or not, a great bulk of loads from France aiming to do this with the 380.

Didn't watch the video, so I'm not sure what this guy's exact beef is with the CZ75. When Jeff Cooper, one of the 1911's biggest advocates, was designing his optimum combat pistol, the Bren Ten, he modeled it after the CZ75. It's also been reported that when the SAS tested handguns prior to retiring the Hi-Power and adopting the SIG P-226 and P-228, their trials “control gun” was a CZ-75, which did as well as the SIG entries. It was actually preferred by the SAS rank and file, but supposedly not adopted for political and supply reasons. (At that time, the Czech Republic had just emerged from the Communist Czech years and was entering new nationhood, and wasn’t as reliable an ally as was Germany.)

Between Cooper and the SAS, I think I'd take their endorsements over this tattooed freak, Yeager.

Not too sure about this Yeager fella.

Seems to be a hell of a nice guy....as long as you agree with him.

It fits my hand well but is to large for concealed carry.

I love my CZ75 40S&W

[Joe 6-pack]

Yep. I had a CZ75B in .40 on my nightstand until my bedroom was involved in a tragic boating accident :-)

[Vaquero]

I remember his ads.

[mylife]

☺ we are of like minds, but I use a shotgun for that.

[real saxophonist]

He doesn’t like high pressure rounds.

[camle]

geard a lot about what he don’t like, not not a lot of reasons, but little of what he liked. and even less of practical use when looking for a carry pistol. worthless rhetoric.
