Flash mobs in NYC

Notice the reaction from the police….oh wait, there isn’t one.

I’ll tell you what would stop this nonsense with the quickness. About 10 of these, coming at 900 FPS.

Gun control fails again.

Just got an email from Scott at AmmunitionDepot.com saying their having a sale on some handgun ammo to celebrate one of the many get-drunk-and-party holidays we celebrate in this country.

If you follow us on Twitter……you know we will never let a great event go by without a fun promotion.

Heizer Double Tap video

I’m on the fence. Seems cool, but I don’t what situations exist that I would want to limit myself to just 2 rounds. But the video gives more information than has been available so far.

Think that title will stir some shit up?
This is one of those contended issues. Like Coke v Pepsi, Chevy v Ford, everyone that has one, seems to have an opinion. I’ve got one, and I’m hoping you do to, and that your opinion is different because I want to prove ya wrong.

It seems a lot of the .45 fans will refer at least at some point to the concept of “stopping power”. But what does it look like when we actually examine the data? The king of the hill is the .357 magnum. It’s better than the .45acp. It has more one shot stops than the .45. In fact, the reason why police officers stopped carrying it was because of capacity, not effectiveness. So they went to the 9 initially, but that was shown to lack in the effective category, so they tried to design a round that was as effective as the .357, but had the capacity of the auto. Why didn’t they just go to the .45? Recoil, and it wasn’t as effective as the .357. Let’s over look the pansy complaint about recoil, focus on the effectiveness, and crunch some numbers here.

A self defense load for the .357 is one capable of pushing a 125 grain projectile at about 1400 fps.
A standard load for the 9mm only pushes the a 124 grain projectile at 1100 fps.

The diameter of the 9 is .355. The .357 is well, .357.
One grain and .002 diameter difference isn’t IMO going to change that much, so how do we speed that projectile up? By not using standard pressure ammo of course! By going to +p you rap that up to 1350 fps. Not enough? Use a gun that has polygonal rifling instead of traditional rifling like a Glock, or a HK and you will get that extra 50 fps and probably more.

So now you’ve got the .357, a proven man stopper, and the king of the hill as far as defensive sidearms are concerned, firing a 125 grain projectile at 1400 fps, and the much maligned 9mm that is thought by some to be incapable of stopping a BG unless he (or she, gotta be equal opportunity, I guess) they are suffering from a chronic wasting disease and should be best relegated to popping balloons at your local fairgrounds firing a 124 grain projectile at over 1400 fps? WTF?
