quality arm or not? He "thinks' SA .44 mags amount to a crap as a defensive handgun, and he ALSO "thinks' that slowfire plinking=defensive skill-building.

Garand gets out and shoots in a number of disciplines. You sit in a chair typing on a keyboard and don't shoot. There is no comparison.

I carried the Canadian Version of the M16 from 1986 to 2002 and I've owned an Olympic AR 15A2 and an Armalite M15A2 that I was shooting this morning. Gunkid, what did you shoot this morning??

DAMMIT MELVIN, I WISH YOU WOULD START IGNORING US LIKE YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO.

NOW GET WITH THE DAMNED PROGRAM, OR GET YOU BUTT BACK TO PATRIOTNETWORK.COM

Oh wow. Another new original and substantive most by Melvin.

Melvin is very substantive, except for mental acuity!

 

[Garand]

Oh the memories! Actually back at this time I had a retired friend (may he rest in peace), who went to the local range almost every day during the spring, summer and fall and shot 50 rds of .45 Colt out of his 2nd generation Colt SAA. This meant that if he fired for 180 days throughout the year, he would have shot around 9,000 rds. Given that amount of practice, I'm sure he could have defended himself against 1 or 2 opponents in the moment.

A lot of old threads are surfacing...

 

[BigBassMan]

yep, can see some of Mels nonsense from back then, never changes.

 

[Dorobuta]

How many different usernames does he have here?

 

[BigBassMan]

Just look back, you can spot them in the first couple words.

 

[Garand]

Maybe Melvin would like to tell us about HIS knowledge of the AR style of firearms?

 

[BigEd]

You know it's kind of odd that all his claims of gunsmithing this or that.
There's been a few comments about him claiming not knowing how to derail strip an AR for cleaning.

Then, IiRC, there was a comment about him placing an unassembled firearm into a hot bluing take.

Sounds pretty inept to me.🤣
