Interesting, thanks.

Medula, if you don't mind me asking, what ammo were you using at the time of the shootings?

He makes me sick. Mr big shot, always with a smirk on his face. Somebody is going to wipe it off one day. He'll get his usual "special" treatment; probably another cell with his old number on it. He ain't no better than my mop that runs across the floor everyday. :furious:

It was hard to read. Thanks for fixing it for me. :thumb:

Wow, you even paragraphed it, too. :clap: You're good.

Thank you, sir. How'd you do that? :ponder:

I'll be careful not to post such large threads in the future. I try to stay away from that anyway.

Thanks!

Yea, when a copied and pasted, it was in that format. Not sure how to change it, though. Any ideas?

If it can't be modified, just delete it.

I was doing some surfing on .22's and ran across this post from an archive in "Google Answers" It's about a young mans harrowing experience of being shot. In an amazing recount of what it felt like from the time the bullet hit him, to the time he was found, is truly astounding. And all of this from ...

Great! Thanks for the links. :thumb:

It just an email address. Can someone explain the process to me? I'd like to make sure that I fit in here before committing to it. So, I may give the forum a few more days just to make sure. It seems as though my thoughts, ideas, and values coincide with other members, as far as I can tell. I've alr...

I didn't even notice the link Justin provided. Surely something to think about, and quite affordable. How does the paypal thing work. Oh, I think there was a link to that as well. I'll go back and take a look. Thanks

The hard reality.

Even though we have no vested interest in Iran's oil, U.S. protection is almost a given. Iran's oil is traded as a commodity, but European and Chinese companies continue to do deals. If we don't protect the oil over there, China gets no fuel and we get no products. The vicious circle continues. Made...

I don't get much in to politics, but I would think Israel could take care of themselves. We need to stop trying to save the world.

And I wholeheartedly agree with you as well. While FN may be a well known name to you and I, there are a lot of shooters (and new shooters at that) who just don't know that much about the company and what they manufacture. Getting that Federal Brand on boxes would do wonders for the continued intere...

I see. Well, if they're marketing it under the FN brand name, I don't think it will get out to a "broader audience". People recognize popular names such as Federal, Remington, Winchester, ect. In order to sell more guns (or in this case Five Seven pistols) marketing boxes labeled, Federal, eg. is th...

Good Lord!

I look at that money and see how it represents thousands upon thousands of lives out of control, and(or) destroyed. Very sad, indeed.

Ok, thanks, Mr SF. So is this deal about Federal making the loads just hearsay or actual fact? And will they come in boxes marked, Federal?

Sounds like a good idea. :thumb: I need to shoot my FiveSeven I just got in trade and a new Glock, too.

Will the new Federal loads be listed on their website in the ballistics tables? I keep looking for them and have yet to see them. I'm a little confused on the FN SS195LF boxes. Are you saying that on the bottom of the boxes it's labeled "Made in Belgium by FN" and not "Made in USA by Fiocchi"? What'...

Evil black guns, I like it.

I've always thought the StreamLight looked pretty cool on the FiveSeven. I just can't bring myself to spending that extra money for the TLR1, or TLR2. The TLR-2 is a fourth of what the pistol cost.

Great, thank you!

Here's some more from 2007.

Good shot, trigger time. My boss and I have hunted a lot in East Texas, mainly Panola county. Their overrun with hogs over there. It's not uncommon to see them in packs of 20 to 30. A couple of years ago I hunted with my brother-in-law over in Franklin county. The white-tails weren't around at the t...

For f3rr37: Trade went very smooth. Gun was exactly as he described it; in excellent condition. I Would do another trade with him in a heartbeat!

The honesty of folks like him are hard to come by these days. Thanks, Jake, for making this Texas boy one happy camper. :thumb:

The wife and I watch it. Have been since it first aired. Good show!

f3rr37 wrote:If a purchase a firearm from an FFL, then the Oregon State Police get my information and run a NCIS check on me, that is it.

Yep, same here.

We don't have registration in Texas. When a FFL licensed gun dealer closes its doors, all the records are sent to ATF.

Good one!!! :laugh:

Mystery solved, thank you.

I'm getting PM's with subject: LE Forum. I open them and they're like comments and stuff. I responded to one of the PM's (I believe fzr confused) and I got my own PM back. Weird. Just thought I would let Admin know.

You can always take the battery out and see what happens.

Never mind. I didn't read your post carefully enough. f3rr37 is probably right in the fact it might be a hardware issue.

i THINK it only has a 30 day warranty, but i will look into it. as for keeping it plugged in, yea i do that 99% of the time, but it will randomly not recognize (for lack of a better word) that it is plugged in and all of a sudden it will pop up saying it is about to die. like right now, it is plugg...

I've never used my battery in mine. Maybe because I don't move it around, but you could always just keep it plugged in to the wall. :?: Maybe it would work fine that way? Worth a try. If you have to have the battery; obviously something went wrong when it fell, so having it looked at might be your o...

I would be interested in knowing how it does on coyotes. Good luck and good shooting. :thumb:

Thanks for the info. :thumb: I'm still learning about this round, so you'll have to pardon my, uhhh, lack of knowledge. :ponder: I am a quick learner, though.

That's funny, but too true. :thumb:

Looks like that will work, panzermk2. I saw some of your other videos; really impressive! Cutting through 3/8 steel like hot butter. Oh boy! Do your other rounds pretty much pass the gelatin test? And are there some that would penetrate too much for a self-defense round? Thanks for the pic!

Is there any factory loaded ammunition out there that will penetrate the FBI recommended standard of 12" or more for the fiveseveN? How does Elite Ammunition do in ballistics gelatin?

Thanks!

Yeah well, he is a fool then when it comes to FiveseveNs, or he isn't that reputable. That is not an IOM. It is a USG. Thus, it is overpriced. I've never actually purchased from him before. His place of business is of good size. I have seen them at Dallas gun shows. Their tables are usually full of...

I ran his phone number through Google. Turns out he's a reputable (big) gun dealer in this area. So much for the even trade.

Also wanted to say, thank you for the quick responses. You don't see that everyday. It's very refreshing.

Thanks again!

Neat site, too. :thumb:

MrSlippyFist wrote:Sounds the same way to me as well. Sorry, bro - not looking for an AR right now, just sold one.

I wish I had the money to give you, but I'm strapped for cash myself. Thanks for considering my offer.

f3rr37 wrote:Reading his description, it is a way over priced USG trying to be sold on the hype of it being banned.

That's what it sounds like to me, too.

MrSlippyfist, I have a NIB DPMS (bought a couple of months ago from my local dealer). It's the model Panther Lite 16. In beautiful condition. Not a scratch on her. Was looking for an even trade, straight across. I have a picture of it on Photo Bucket if you're interested.

Thanks,

Yes, I saw that. I was looking to trade, though.

I was looking through Gun Broker at the Five Sevens and ran across one in my area. He's asking 1,300.00. He says it's a second generation IOM (NIB). Is he overpriced on this pistol?

Hello, I'm Garrett. I am extremely curious about the FN Five Seven. I've had my eye on the pistol for quite some time. I get a lot of conflicting information off the net. So, I decided to join up. I'm hoping a lot of my questions about the pistol will get cleared up for me and allow me to make an in...
